Kandiyohi County Board to meet newest K-9 officer June 3
is expected to have a visit Tuesday from the newest K-9 officer in the Sheriff's Office.
Loki and handler Sgt. Nick Ardoff are slated to visit at the beginning of the 9 a.m. meeting, according to the posted agenda for June 3.
The board is also expected to act on a sewer and water improvement agreement for a planned community called The Nest, located on the southeast side of Nest Lake along North Shore Drive in Spicer in the vicinity of Hope Presbyterian Church. The developer is Ryan A. Koosman of RAK Construction LLC.
According to the accompanying materials posted with the board agenda, the development will have 17 units and a clubhouse. Upon completion, the infrastructure will be turned over to Glacial Lakes Sanitary Sewer and Water District.
A presentation about the Kandiyohi County 4-H Program from University of Minnesota Extension staff is also on Tuesday's agenda.
The board at approximately 10:15 a.m. Tuesday will consider going into a closed session to discuss a property located at 14998 Highway 71 N.E, New London. Tax records show it to be a residence, vacant land and native prairie.
The Open Meeting Law allows a closed session to develop or consider offers or counteroffers for the purchase or sale of property. Any board action must be completed in open session.
Under calendar matters, the board will consider moving the June 17 meeting to 4 p.m., instead of the regular 9 a.m. start time, and moving the July 15 meeting to July 17 instead due to a conflict with two commissioners attending a conference on July 15.

Fox News host Bret Baier pulled over, ticketed amid Trump's DC crackdown
No one seems to be safe amid President Trump's crime crackdown in Washington, D.C. — not even Fox News host Bret Baier, who was caught on video being pulled over by police in the nation's capital. The 'Special Report' host was stopped by a D.C. cop for distracted driving while behind the wheel of a white Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon. The footage, which shows Baier being given a ticket, was captured by real estate firm The Mollaan Babbington Group and shared on Instagram Sunday. 'With Trump's federal takeover of DC in full swing, you can't make this up: I watched even FOX's Bret Baier get pulled over in Georgetown. And for what? I honestly couldn't tell,' read the video's caption. Baier, who has interviewed Trump and occasionally played golf with him, fessed up to the police-involved incident and offered more details on Tuesday. 'I picked up my ringing phone as I drove past an officer while driving my wife's car in Georgetown,' tweeted the 55-year-old New Jersey native. 'He pointed to have me pull over — I did,' he continued. 'He was very professional. I had to dig for the registration card. Got a ticket and left. I didn't know there was paparazzi.' Trump announced last week he wanted to 'liberate' Washington, D.C., and placed the Metropolitan Police Department under direct federal control. He also deployed around 800 National Guard troops to 'rescue' D.C. from 'crime, bloodshed, bedlam and squalor.' The controversial overhaul has occurred despite official statistics stating that violent crime in the city has declined in recent years. On Tuesday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced there have been 465 arrests in D.C. since the start of the crackdown on Aug. 7. _____

MSNBC name change: See what netizens are saying about the rebrand
MSNBC's rebrand isn't quite landing. After the cable-news network announced it would become My Source News Opinion World, or MS NOW, later this year, netizens have taken to social media to make their disdain for the name and logo change more than abundantly clear. The issue, according to the Internet, isn't just the name, it's also the look and 'feel' of the new logo. 'MSNBC changing its name to MS NOW is one of the worst branding disasters in media history. The logo looks like it belongs on a discount computer from 1998, not a serious news network,' one user wrote. 'Absurd.' The rebranding is part of a larger restructuring currently taking place at NBCUniversal. The network, along with other brands including USA Network, Syfy, CNBC, Golf Channel, GolfNow, and SportsEngine will become part of a new media company called VERSANT later this year. 'This name further underscores our mission: to serve as your destination for breaking news and thoughtful analysis and remain the home for the perspectives that you've relied on for nearly 30 years,' MSNBC said in an Aug. 18 statement.' See what netizens are saying about the rebrand. Why the name change? And what does MS NOW stand for? MS NOW stands for My Source News Opinion World and the name change, according to MSNBC, 'gives us the freedom to chart our own path forward, and we're excited about where it's headed.' The move conflicts with previous claims made by NBCUniversal that the network would be allowed to keep its name amid the shift. NBC's iconic peacock logo will no longer be used for the cable-news network, either. A memo sent Aug. 18 by MSNBC President Rebecca Kutler addressed the flip-flop, writing: 'During this time of transition, NBCUniversal decided that our brand requires a new, separate identity… The future of our success is not tied to remaining within the NBC family and using the peacock as part of our identity,' Rebecca Kutler, MSNBC President, wrote in an Aug. 18 memo addressed to staff. The peacock-looking logo, according to MSNBC CEO Mark Lazarus, 'is synonymous with NBCUniversal, and it is a symbol they have decided to keep within the NBCU family.' Because of this decision, MSNBC is now free to 'chart our own path forward, create distinct brand identities, and establish an independent news organization following the spin.' Social media reacts: 'I will never call it the new name' MSNBC has certainly ruffled some feathers with the announcement, with netizens posting reactions (complete with GIFs), opinions and critiques about the rebrand, dubbed one of the 'worst branding disasters in media history' on X, formerly known as Twitter, in the last 24 hours. Here's what netizens are saying, or have said, about MSNBC's proposed rebrand since the news broke on Aug. 18.
