@sam_amick @TheAthletic A simple question: would Kobe have taken himself out? Answer: No. In that situation, he didn't take himself out at 78 points to tie Wilt for 2nd (or miss FTs on purpose to honor him). Kobe was a competitor. He wanted 2nd place for him alone and stayed in the game until he got it

Here's the full testimony of Luke Ganger—brother of Renee Nicole Good, who was killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Jan. 7—delivered minutes ago. "These encounters with federal agents are changing the community and changing many lives—including ours—forever," he said.

NEW: Renee Good's brothers—Brent and Luke Ganger—were announced as additional witnesses in tomorrow's 3pm ET Congressional hearing "on the violent tactics and disproportionate use of force" by DHS agents. They join the Good family's lawyer, another CBP shooting victim, and others

On its face, ICE targeting the Native community in Minneapolis seems weird, until you look at Kristi Noem’s history as South Dakota’s governor. You can’t get much further from the US-Mexico border than South Dakota. 🧵

It's that magical time of year when private jets descend on a Swiss mountain village to discuss climate change and poverty! Anyway, here's my annual reminder. I'll stop posting this when they stop avoiding the real issue: their own massive tax avoidance 💰

@Farbod_E I'm pumped after last night's game: All their lineups sustained their come-from-behind effort against an unrelenting team for three quarters after sleepwalking thru 1st Q.

I worked with the Biden White House and DOJ to develop a policy on when can federal police shoot at a moving vehicle. DOJ adopted it in 2022, and as far as I know, it hasn't been repealed. Here's what it says: "Firearms may not be discharged solely to disable moving vehicles. Specifically, firearms may not be discharged at a moving vehicle unless: (1) a person in the vehicle is threatening the officer or another person with deadly force by means other than the vehicle; or (2) the vehicle is operated in a manner that threatens to cause death or serious physical injury to the officer or others, and no other objectively reasonable means of defense appear to exist, which includes moving out of the path of the vehicle. Firearms may not be discharged from a moving vehicle except in exigent circumstances. In these situations, an officer must have an articulable reason for this use of deadly force." You can find the policy here: justice.gov/archives/ag/fi…

Does your child dread going to school? Not occasionally, but regularly, viscerally, in their body? Most parents dismiss this as normal. "School is hard." "Life is hard." "Toughen up." But dread is data. It's your child's nervous system telling you something is wrong.

Dershowitz, who helped Jeffrey Epstein get this sweetheart deal, knows full well that there were almost three dozen dozen girls, ages 13 to 17, who were named in a list that accompanied this plea deal. The final plea PAPERWORK was manipulated to pick just one victim -- and his lawyers made sure they chose the oldest one so that it didn't look so bad. But the girl who came forward first to police was 14 -- and the list of other victims attached to that deal included many young girls.
The Intellectualist@highbrow_nobrow

Alan Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. That’s not a pedophile. @Acyn

As for why Biden and the Democrats didn't release the criminal case files -- Maxwell's criminal case was still OPEN during the Biden administration. She wasn't convicted until late 2021, and then she appealed her conviction. Generally, it's not a good idea to open your evidence files when a criminal case is ongoing. We also don't know whether the FBI was *still* investigating other possible suspects who helped Epstein or participated in his crimes. If you are still targeting suspects, you don't want them to know you are zeroing in on them.
