Thunderstorms produced 6-12" of rainfall last night through early this morning, producing extensive and catastrophic flash flooding across eastern Missouri. Additional rainfall is expected in the same area through tonight, and a Flood Watch remains in effect. #stlwx #mowx #ilwx

HOLY CRAP Trump actually accomplished a miracle. Here is what he got out of Iran: - Reduce its stockpile of enriched uranium by about 98% - Limit uranium enrichment to 3.67% purity (far below weapons-grade) - Cut the number of installed centrifuges by roughly two-thirds - Only enrich uranium at one declared site (Natanz) - Stop enrichment activities at Fordow and convert it into a research facility - Redesign the Arak heavy-water reactor so it could not easily produce weapons-grade plutonium - Ship out or dilute excess enriched uranium Allow extensive inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Permit continuous monitoring of nuclear facilities and supply chains - Accept “snap” inspections under expanded monitoring rules - Avoid building new heavy-water reactors for years - Stay within strict limits on uranium stockpile size and centrifuge development for set periods ranging from 10–25 years Ooops, sorry! That was the JCPOA that Obama signed with Iran, only to have him tear it up, kill 140 kids, get hundreds of Americans injured, 13 killed, and gas prices to surge 50%.

Every time you hear a lie in this immoral and unpatriotic attempt to rewrite the history of January 6 - done by Trumper rioters that Trump wants to pay with your tax money - show them this minute-by-minute video account of organized, militant white supremacists groups leading the charges, the brutal attacks on cops, the threats to hang Mike Pence, and throw their lies right back at them. nytimes.com/video/us/politic…

Reminder, the husband she is referring to pleaded guilty to a felony count of assaulting, resisting, and impeding federal officers. He also assaulted AP photographer John Minchillo. The wife lies when she goes on social media and describes him as a peace-loving observer. There is video of him attacking Minchillo. Minchillo, a professional through and through, got up and continued working, chronicling the violence and chaos. The AP photographer Minchillo is a true American hero of that awful day. Should he line up at the Trump trough to get his big payout with the rioters and assaulters? Here is a summary of what Burlew did, courtesy of Elon's Grok: "Benjamen Scott Burlew (also referred to as Benjamin Burlew), Brandy Burlew's husband, was convicted (via guilty plea) of assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers (a felony) during the January 6, 2021, Capitol breach. He pleaded guilty in May 2024 to this charge related to actions on the Lower West Terrace area. There were attempts to withdraw the plea and other developments, but he admitted to the offense. "Yes, he was charged and widely reported for allegedly throwing/pushing an Associated Press photographer (John Minchillo) over a low stone wall.nCourt documents and videos (per DOJ and news reports) describe Burlew joining others in yelling at, grabbing, dragging, and shoving the photographer. "He allegedly "forcefully throw[ed] and push[ed]" Minchillo over the wall to the west lawn several feet below, causing him to land on his back. Burlew was then seen looking over the wall. "This was part of the initial charges against him (assault in special territorial jurisdiction and acts of physical violence on restricted grounds), though his guilty plea was specifically to the officer assault charge."

This is a huge victory for transparency over police records. Great work by @stltoday and @dave_roland in fighting for this ruling against @SLMPD, which has for years misapplied an appeals court ruling to presumptively close public records. stltoday.com/news/local/crim… via @stltoday
