There’s background to this. I’m tired so the short version is this lady maintains a site that gives accurate day by day covid numbers for Florida. The Gov didn’t like that hence the above gestapo-ing. The justification for the cops’ visit was serving a warrant to take all her computers as part of an investigation on whether or not she “hacked the health system”

NYPD is deploying those creepy Boston Dynamics robots.
Can’t wait until one gets obliterated by a taxi and causes gridlock for hours
