Brazilian courts wanted seven accounts suspended and for X to pay fines. Instead of doing that, Musk publicly fought with the country’s supreme court, got the app banned, and allowed thousands of users to set up accounts on competitors Threads and Bluesky only to end up suspending the accounts originally flagged, paying the fines, and also is now paying even more fines. It’s invigorating to watch a true genius at work.
The LAPD is being sued by a medical facility claiming that a cop trashed an expensive MRI machine by bringing a rifle into the room, ignoring a sign warning against bringing in metal objects. Police reportedly raided the facility based on a false claim it was being used for marijuana cultivation. “The whole operation was nothing short of a disorganized circus, with no apparent rules, procedures, or even a hint of coordination,” the complaint says.
