Tesla sued after Austin shooting suspect allegedly assaulted co-worker A 65-year-old woman says the automaker ignored warning signs before Ndiaga Diagne, the suspect in Sunday’s mass shooting, assaulted her. She sued Thursday.

the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year

the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter

β€œWhen I think about navigating the start of the year here, especially in our hometown in Minneapolis, the thing that we have kept front and center every single day is the safety of our team.” – Target CEO Michael Fiddelke

a lesson to be taken from the Proton email situation is that Swiss law isn’t a get out of jail free card and the Swiss government is a 5 eyes affiliate

Ramstad: Target CEO defends his insider expertise amid investor restlessness Some investors wanted an outsider to take charge of Target. New CEO Michael Fiddelke said he and other veterans deserved a chance to get the company growing again.

Business reporters usually have just one source -- company officials or analysts parroting company officials -- and NEVER talk the consumers for a more informed column. Instead, they belittle what is quite apparently an effective consumer backlash.

What if, and I'm just spitballing here, the reporters had just mentioned that the boycott hadn't come up and maybe even ask them about it? I'm so sick of the paper acting like we're stupid for noticing that they never seem to treat it like it's real.

I have no evidence either way, but the Ramsey County Sheriff sure likes to livestream things like this. Hoping that wasn't why they were trying to get there. Westbound on 94 near 280 is so close to the western edge of Ramsey County, I can't see how he thought he was going to get there in time.

No, the crash victims were totally unrelated and miles away from where the traffic stop was initiated, I-94 W and 280.

The airplane flying the University of Wisconsin men's hockey to Penn State right now, N459AW, was used to fly shackled ICE detainees from Michigan to Louisiana on Sunday.

"I fear some [council members] are indifferent." Have you paid someone's rent, organized a fundraiser, gone on patrol, found someone an attorney, done someone's laundry, delivered groceries, held a baby of someone sheltering in fear? "If not you may be too far removed to have good judgment."

A week ago, the ACLU got DHS officials to admit on record that there would be an additional 407 agents throughout March on top of the 150 CBP agents we would normally have here.

The idea that we are down to pre-surge levels is a lie that needs to be corrected for the country. We are still occupied.

This is who the Minnesota WILD GM wanted in the US Men's locker room to celebrate. Someone who is actively covering up the murders of 2 Minnesotans.

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.

This is so stupid and I am fairly worried this will, in fact, work.

I have a relative who regularly sends me texts saying "redlining mentioned" with a link to some random thing. I do not know how to tell them again that I study racial covenants, not redlining, and do, in fact, have access to Google.

Kansans who are being forced to renew their license because they are trans will have to pay for a new license AND be entered into a database noting the change. As others have said, police state shit.

But it is 2026 and I cant remember the last time I heard any major democratic politician discuss the fact that so many Americans are being forced to pack up and move in order to have access to the the human right of bodily autonomy and personal safety.

Maybe because they dont actually GAF.

Inside the upheaval at the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office Nearly half its lawyers have left since President Trump’s return, leading to dismissed criminal cases, stalled fraud prosecutions and a rare contempt citation against a Justice Department attorney.

Since Trump began his second term, at least 31 of the 64 lawyers at the MN U.S. Attorney’s Office quit or retired, with attorneys citing concerns about ethics, political pressure and the administration’s decision to make immigration a top priority, according to a 2-month Star Tribune investigation.
