    Dep. Commissioner Daughtry says he found "a book on terrorism" at Columbia. (The book is not a how-to book, but a history written by a renowned British historian.)

    Newark cop hit a pedestrian on the highway, loaded the dead body in his car, then went home to talk it over with his mother, prosecutors say. Eventually his father -- also a Newark cop -- called 911 to say his son was in an accident.

    Chris Christie — who as US Attorney had a local politician arrested for corruption while walking his dog & chained him at the wrists and legs for hours in order to “scare the hell” out of other dirty pols — thinks feds were excessive in how they arrested Roger Stone.
    "I think they were trying to intimidate [Roger Stone]. I think it's the wrong thing for prosecutors to do. I think that Mr. Mueller made a mistake in authorizing that because you're going to be criticized" -- Former New Jersey Gov. @ChrisChristie

    Goodbye NYC: I’ve taken a voluntary layoff from @WNYC/@Gothamist, with severance (❤️ you @NYPR_Union). It’s been a privilege to talk on the radio for 11 years: I filed ~2,000 stories, guest-hosted 5 shows, exposed abuse in ICE & at Rikers, helped win a Peabody for #Bridgegate 1/3
