Minneapolis police officers had heavy criticisms for Governor Tim Walz (D) and were left dumbfounded as to why former Vice President Kamala Harris picked him to be her running mate for the 2024 election.The officers gave their thoughts on the ordeal during an exclusive interview with Blaze Media for the five-year anniversary of the Black Lives Matter riots that ravaged the city after the death of George Floyd. The police officers interviewed were part of the Minneapolis Police Department's response to the week-long riots, and they say Walz's ineffective leadership during an intense moment of crisis made the situation worse.RELATED: Minneapolis cops speak out about BLM riots 5 years after 3rd Precinct burned Scott Olson/Getty Images "I think he made some comments leading up to the last election to make it sound like he supports law enforcements, but I think his actions and indecision ... back in 2020 proved otherwise," said one officer."That made no sense to me that they chose the guy who let all of this happen in one of the largest metropolitan areas, that he would be considered to run for the vice presidency. He has been way over his head in the current office that he holds. I can't believe that they would even consider him for that after [the riots]," a second officer said. "He should be ashamed for everything that happened there."The second officer also lambasted Mayor Jacob Frey (D) and the Minneapolis City Council because "it's been a complete embarrassment since all this has happened, with all their decisions that they've made with how to run the police department." Frey is running for re-election to a third term as mayor. Since his election defeat, Walz appears to be laying the groundwork for a 2028 presidential run by holding town halls in other states to protest against the Trump administration."I would actually love to see [Walz] run again," a third officer admitted.When asked why, the officer said, "I got a lot of amusement out of his 2024 vice presidential run, because I think it just really opened the window to a lot of people nationally to see kind of how goofy he is. I think a lot of people looked up and said, 'Who is this guy?' In Minnesota, we had to raise our hands and said, 'Yeah, he's ours. Sorry.'"

On Sunday, May 25, "Duck Dynasty" patriarch Phil Robertson joined Jesus in heaven after a courageous battle with Alzheimer’s disease and other health challenges. He leaves behind a legacy defined by his unwavering devotion to Jesus Christ and a fervent mission to guide others to salvation.Phil’s impact was profound and far-reaching. His powerful testimony of redemption — transformed from a life of darkness to one radiant with the grace of Jesus — has guided countless individuals to seek repentance and embrace faith. In the wake of his passing, thousands have shared heartfelt stories about how Phil touched their lives. The impact he had will surely echo for generations to come.Nobody, however, felt Phil Robertson’s presence more deeply than the people who shared life with him.On this episode of “Unashamed,” Uncle Si, Zach Dasher and his wife, Jill, and longtime friend and Duck Commander General Manager Justin Martin gather to celebrate the man who forever changed their lives. Through tears and joy, they honor Phil’s enduring faith, love, and the indelible mark he left on their hearts. “Even though Phil said, ‘Don't cry,’ we're going to cry,” says Martin. “The boss is home.”“It’s not tears of sadness, OK? This is celebration time. He’s done done his stay on this earth,” says Si, adding that he “already knew” about Phil’s passing before the phone call came.The group reflect about how they were praying for God to bring Phil home. He was suffering, not himself, and deeply missing “God’s creation,” where he spent the majority of his time. His passing was, therefore, a bittersweet mercy.They also recall how Phil’s sister, Jan, foreknew the impact her brother would have if he came to know Jesus.“Jan Robertson was the only one that didn't give up on Phil when he was running with the devil,” says Si. “She said, ‘Y'all have no idea how many people he's going to bring to Jesus,’ and she was right.”Zach’s brother-in-law asked ChatGPT to estimate how many people heard the gospel from Phil Robertson, and it came back with the staggering number of “40 million people.”“I’m even gonna say that that’s low,” says Martin, “and I think that number is only gonna grow, even in the state of which we’re in.”“We're not even to the ripples yet. Phil Robertson's still got a tidal wave right now. … We ain't even crested yet to get to the ripple, because the ripple is going to extend through my children, through y'all's children,” he adds.To hear the group’s stories about how Phil impacted them personally, watch the episode above.

In Episode 398 Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger stroll past the Spite Wall in Westminster, Massachusetts. Constructed in 1852 by Edmund Proctor, the giant colonial wall was made to block the view from Proctor’s neighbor, Farwell Morse, a religious zealot who didn’t approve of his neighbor working on the sabbath day. The wall still stands today as a testament to spite.

New Intel gaming GPUs weren’t announced at Computex after all, but that doesn’t mean that the chipmaker isn’t hard at work. A new Linux driver update has just teased two previously unknown device IDs with Intel Battlemage codenames, suggesting that one could well be the recently teased Intel Arc B770 for gamers. Meanwhile, a new rumor suggests that, although the company is working on a new GPU, it won’t be ready to launch until the end of the year. Intel caused plenty of speculation that new Intel Arc Battlemage GPUs were on the way before Computex, but only Intel Arc Pro workstation cards were ultimately announced. Those might be quality products but they won't be among the best graphics card options for gamers. Instead, what we need are new Intel gaming GPUs, with these latest leaks possibly hinting such an arrival might be coming.

It looks like ASRock has finally figured out why AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D gaming CPUs keep burning out on its motherboards. While the company hasn’t made an official statement, ASRock engineers reportedly discussed the cause, off the record, at the Computex 2025 trade show last week, with the issue now reportedly fixed with a new set of BIOS updates. Reports of burned-out AMD Ryzen gaming CPUs have been racking up on Reddit for months, but the cause hasn’t been completely clear, leaving owners of the best gaming CPU at risk when using ASRock motherboards. ASRock initially sought to downplay the situation in public, but it looks like the problem was more problematic than the company initially realised.

A few weeks ago I finally completed Baldur's Gate 3. I stood triumphant as I took down the Netherbrain, rolling a nat 20 on my dominate check, only for it to beat me down anyway. Ever since, I've been craving more Dungeons and Dragons-inspired goodness, dipping my toes into Warhammer 40k: Rogue Trader and tentatively considering selling my soul to Neverwinter Nights. In my searches, however, Google threw up Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, the chaotic, tabletop-inspired Borderlands sequel that I remember being intrigued by. Now, the Epic Games Store has come to the rescue and saved me a few pretty pennies, because the game is currently going free.
