MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A lawyer for the immigration officer who shot and killed Renee Good dropped out of the Minnesota governor race Monday, breaking with many fellow Republicans and calling President Donald Trump's immigration operation in the state an "unmitigated disaster."

Chris Madel's surprise move comes amid growing calls from Republicans to investigate federal immigration tactics in Minnesota after a U.S. Border Patrol agent fatally shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis on Saturday.

Madel went a step further than most Republicans in his video, saying that while he supports the goal of deporting "the worst of the worst" from Minnesota, he thinks the Trump administration's immigration enforcement operation in the Twin Cities has gone too far.

"I cannot support the national Republicans' stated retribution on the citizens of our state," Madel said. "Nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

UConn is a basketball blueblood.

Quote from: BM1090 on Today at 02:17:32 PMYeah. Fritz is out of form and a bit injured. And Musetti rolled him.

Plus Musetti is fun as hell to watch and a really good player. His match vs Djoker should be great TV.

I think Tien's run ends tonight but he's established himself as a legitimate top 20 player. Better on hard courts. And that should be some really good tennis tonight too.

Shelton is playing the best tennis of his life and becoming a real threat but Sinner is the one guy I just can't see him beating.

 

Why do you think it would be easier for Shelton to beat Alcaraz than Sinner?

Quote from: #UnleashJosh on Today at 12:27:37 PMThe question is really whose winning nattys since the NIL takeover. Pretty much everything prior to that can be thrown out.

Quote from: Captain Quette on Today at 01:44:35 PMA few points:

1. 34% is considered average or ok 3 pt shooting percentage. At or above 37% is considered good.
2. His shot is triggered from behind his head similar to Joplin. Had pretty close seats at DePaul, he was right in front of me and his mechanics do not look simple.
3. Possible poor man's Stevie but think his physical play and foot speed needs work. He had trouble w quicker guards.

I am interested to see him improve on these items, he has promise.

Maybe there's some AI stuff going on on broadcasts or something because I haven't been able to get to a Marquette game this year, but this certainly isn't triggered from behind his head.  This is about as textbook fundamentally as it gets.  He isn't a sniper, but I think we'll see him be a very good 3 point shooter as soon as next season.

Owens, on the other hand, has a "wonky J."

Quote from: rocky_warrior on Today at 12:26:33 PMThere was a spell check feature, but now I *think* every modern browser has spell check included when typing into forms.  At least for me I get a red squiggly under misspelled words...you should too.
...but I thought it auto corrected as well, not just a squiggly. Not to make excuses but my typing skills are neither hear or their. ;D
