Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

Strongest Pacific storm of the season is likely to go today and tomorrow. More on that and photogenic 'naders.

Everything about this administration is chaos. From nat security to basic funding for public safety like NWS. It’s exhausting.

Give me your best DPS tips for DL renewal. I have an appointment on the books in 10 days but I want to try to get in sooner. Just get up early and refresh constantly?

Are there any worthwhile BlueSky accounts skeeting about OSINT stuff? Preferably accounts that are low on hyperbole or rampant speculation and don’t have wet dreams over war stuff.

Cool. Just what we all wanted.

ICYMI, over the weekend, coinciding with my birthday, Flag Day, protests, and parades, I wrote about something totally unrelated to weather for (maybe?) the first time. On actual patriotism. open.substack.com/pub/mattlanz...

This flash flood emergency back on Friday in Evansville was shocking to me. No hint that anything this excessive would occur on Friday. At least that I saw. Pattern isn’t exactly high confidence but a hint would be nice.

Quiet, so we'll take it. But at least want to address the potential for heavy rain in Mexico (and maybe, maybe far S Texas) this week.

I do wonder if this is a Buster Posey deal bringing Devers to SF. I like it for SF.

“I love the way you look at me I love the way you smack my ass I love the dirty things you do I have control of you” For some reason I liked Puddle of Mudd’s 2001 album “Come Clean” melodically. But, man, when you get into the lyrics. Big 🚩 screaming at you.

Days like today make me violently supportive of converting the vacant Astrodome to an indoor park.

Always read @lmchervinsky.bsky.social. A worthwhile reminder of what real leadership in this country looks like.

Every single clip or report I’ve seen about the parade makes clear that Trump embarrassed the US Army. As is usually the case, he owed America’s soldiers better.
