Morgenthau also was known for making prosecutorial decisions that were fair, sound, equal and free of political motivation. A great public servant (and fellow vet) who will be missed

[Preet Bharara @PreetBharara]

This is terribly sad. Robert Morgenthau, former SDNY US Attorney and Manhattan DA, was an unparalleled patriot, veteran, prosecutor, public servant. He gave his whole life to service. RIP.

Trump's attacks on women of color and call to remove citizens from our country channel the tactics and language of dictators. It is deliberate, disgusting and cowardly, and should be condemned by all those who believe in the foundations of our democracy.

Failure of leadership down at 26th Street. To take a page from @LightfootForChi, if we’re going to stop the cycle of disinvestment in our most violent neighborhoods, we have to get after gun violence and get it off our streets #CookCounty #ChicagoPolice

[Anthony Guglielmi @AJGuglielmi]

As of this afternoon, 11 of the 19 individuals arrested on gun charges over the weekend by #ChicagoPolice are already out on the street. 7 of the individuals were previously convicted felons and 6 had prior gun offenses in their backgrounds

[Bill Conway @billconway58]

Great Chicago Way @John_Kass
interviewing @LightfootForChi Friday. Worth your time!

[John Kass @John_Kass]

"The Chicago Way is a deep cultural phenomenon," says @chicagosmayor. Listen as she explains "Accountability Mondays" for CPD brass; City Hall fights w @Suntimes investor Elzie Higgenbottom & why Ald. Burke must resign. w @John_Kass @JPCarlin & @jmetr22b https://t.co/5Wc09GndAF

Looks like it’s real bad - No wonder it’s a Friday evening news dump

[Megan Crepeau @crepeau]

Just got a statement from Kim Foxx's office ahead of the release of prosecutors' documents in the #JussieSmollett case - looks like we can expect a hefty records release this evening.

Cyber attacks and cybercrime are a tidal wave headed this way! Speaking from a law enforcement, military and corporate perspective and I wrote this piece to detail the threat. Appreciate thoughts!

[U.S. Naval Institute @NavalInstitute]

Does the United States need the cyber equivalent of a Pearl Harbor attack to realize the gravity of the threat?

Cook County criminal justice reform has left behind victims of domestic violence, especially ones that are repeatedly attacked!

Smollett double standard? Cook Co. Judge Marc Martin rips Kim Foxx’s office for its handling of false police report case involving suburban woman. Wonders why they’re not giving her same consideration they gave ⁦@JussieSmollett⁩. Exclusive story tonight ⁦@fox32news⁩

Pete’s calm but firm style wipes the floor with Trump in a debate, can’t wait to see him against the Dem field

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

Dear politicians: THIS is how you answer a question about gun safety.

[Lori Lightfoot @LoriLightfoot]

As your next mayor, it’s my commitment from Day 1 to fight for equity and inclusion for all Chicagoans, no matter which neighborhood you live in. Retweet this if you’re in! #BetterTogetherChi

[Bill Conway @billconway58]

@agrimm34 The amount of charges doesn’t matter here because they were all class 4’s and would have merged in sentencing under the one crime - one act doctrine

[Bill Conway @billconway58]

You’d have thought @SAKimFoxx would have learned from her predecessor that she needed to be exceedingly transparent with the community on high profile cases! So much time spent on this despite the violent crime and corruption problems we have #JussieSmollettHoax #KimFoxx

[Megan Crepeau @crepeau]

These texts mostly prove what we already knew: the office was caught flat-footed by the huge press reaction after case was dropped. "Just wish I could have anticipated the magnitude of this response and planned a bit better!”
