This is concerning:

When a lawyer representing the students arrived and requested a warrant, law enforcement refused to share it with the lawyer, stating they had already shown it to the residents, a source told Status Coup.

The warrant was signed by the Michigan AG, Dana Nessel, so she would be the one to question, not Whitmer. Generally, at least as of late, Democratic governors still try to give their AGs quite a bit of independence, just as Biden didn’t go around ordering Merrick Garland to prosecute or not prosecute certain people, in spite of GOP claims to the contrary.

‘Extreme temperature variations in Spain’ contributed to outage - Portuguese grid officials
We have a bit more for you now from the Portuguese energy company REN (Rede Eletrica Nacional).

It says that “due to extreme temperature variations in the interior or Spain, there were anomalous oscillations in the very high voltage lines (400 KV), a phenomenon known as ‘induced atmospheric vibration’”.

“These oscillations caused synchronisation failures between the electrical systems, leading to successive disturbances across the interconnected European network.”

“Monday is Confederate Memorial Day, one of three Confederate-related holidays in the state. It is recognized on the fourth Monday in April every year.”

“In addition to Confederate Memorial Day, Alabama also celebrates Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee’s birthday on the same day that the U.S. observes a holiday for civil rights leader Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.

In June, the state has a holiday to honor Jefferson Davis, who was president of the Confederacy.”

Alabama has been Alabama-ing extra hard since the election. I suppose I should be posting the seemingly never ending stream of willful stupidity and hate, but it’s Alabama, and no one really expects anything different. Rightfully so, I might add. I’m tired, I’m scared for my kiddo’s future, and until she is 19 (because that’s the age of legal majority here), I’m trapped here.

This claim gives me the same vibe as a school-kid yelling “Teacher- Johnny’s hitting me back.”
