based on ATC audio, the helicopter is operating exactly where you would expect over Minneapolis, just south of downtown

Went ahead and updated my map of cities with higher crime than D.C. to accommodate the two new states from the Deep South who are sending troops to the capital. In the five states there are 64 cities, home to 1.7 million people, that had more crime in 2024 than D.C.

Screenshot of Google Earth Pro displaying the flight track of a flight of N10CX (AlCo Sheriff's Office fixed wing surveillance aircraft) around SE Oakland. The flight track is visualized with thin red lines over a satellite basemap. There are several clear areas where the aircraft is orbiting around a stationary point. There are also KML objects labeled TOI #X that depict calculated possible targets of interest in the center of these orbits.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

Salaries make up about 6.6% of federal spending so all of these staff reductions are a tiny drop in the federal budget. They're either performative or meant to hobble federal agencies so they can't perform their function. Or both. It's maddening.
