Since entering the league during the 2018-19 season, Jalen Brunson is now the seventh player to eclipse 11,000 points, 3,000 assists and 1,000 three-pointers. He joins LeBron James, James Harden, Damian Lillard, Devin Booker, Luka Doncic and Trae Young.

It’s patently absurd to suggest that there’s a criminal predicate here. But even if there were…why exactly would the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Texas be the one to prosecute it?
After the election, @SenBlumenthal & his allies think they can intimidate Americans for their constitutionally protected associations w/ President Trump.
Congress is not a weapon to be wielded against the American people.
I'm taking the first step to stop this abuse of power.

Federal prosecutors leaned on a one-time bodyguard of Omar's for information about her and when he didn't have what they wanted, they indicted him and then dropped charges after DHS began deportation. Now he's in Kenya, separated from his fiancé.

Govt's arguments in the Broadview 6 case looking a lot like those in JGG (re Venezuelans sent to El Salvador despite court order). DOJ says judges have no choice but to leave allegations of criminal wrongdoing by DOJ up to DOJ.

NEW: Judge Perry says the DOJ’s request is “immaterial.” She has the inherent authority to have a hearing over factual matters, and DOJ doesn’t even represent most of those who will testify, she says.
The Justice Department’s credibility crisis with the judiciary keeps growing:

I had no idea how fascinated I was by concrete, until David Byrne explained the Pantheon, highway overpasses and self-healing lime clasts. It's all in his predictably unpredictable new book, “Sleeping Beauties: Why Good Ideas Go Dormant and How They Wake Up.”

The @ChathamHouse awarded their annual prize 2026 to the women of Afghanistan. While this recognition from a prestigious organization like the chatum house is a testament to the courage and persistence strength womne in my country have demonstrated and we appreciate @ChathamHouse for that. However, like I said during award ceremony, we must move beyond statements and sympathy, in 21st century, before the world eyes, 20 million plus women are being erased from any public, social, political life by a group that was empowered and helped by some western so called diplomats and their repressive actions continue to be either normalized or even white washed. Like I said in the ceremony, “Taliban will be defeated this time by women, but shame on the those diplomats who don’t see our suffering and instead are delighted for a photo opportunity with them”

🗓️ Day 1,879 since the Taliban banned secondary age girls from getting an education.
It is not just girls and young women who lose out from this gender apartheid, but the whole of Afghan society.
The Taliban are punishing everyone by not allowing girls to learn and work.
You are not forgotten.
