@jaketapper your so dismissive after you get done interviewing someone. It really makes you sound like you’re above everybody. The way you dismiss after an interview just stop I’m trying to like you, but you sound like a dick after every interview. Stop being in a damn hurry.
@CrimeStoriesHub The problem I have with the situation is the stepfather walked off to get the gun.. he should have called the police. By him walking off, that gave him time to think about his actions. The guy was unarmed and yes he grabbed the rifle but the rifle shouldn’t have been there.
Doctors at a hospital in Texas informed George Pickering that his son was in a state of brain death. They explained that his son showed "no brain activity" and the decision had been made to remove life support.
Pickering, however, was unconvinced by their assessment and resorted to extreme measures by drawing a firearm. He demanded that the doctors continue their efforts to save his son's life, threatening to use the gun if they refused.
This situation escalated into a tense standoff lasting three hours, during which Pickering faced off against the police while the medical team performed additional tests on his son.
The hospital was secured under lockdown as police negotiators tried to reason with Pickering, who remained adamant. In a pivotal moment, Pickering's son, previously declared braindead, responded to his father's request to squeeze his hand, indicating cognitive presence. Following this revelation, Pickering peacefully surrendered to the authorities.
George Pickering II subsequently served a prison sentence of 11 months. Remarkably, his son experienced a complete recovery.
Media: @gtconway3d to @Acosta on #Trump posting that judges 'should listen to Sammy the Bull':
"Imagine telling judges committed to upholding the rule of law that they should listen to a mobster. He is a sociopath.
"One of the things I think needs to happen this year is that we need to start talking about #DonaldTrump's mental state. This is not a well man. A man who would say this publicly -- and actually believe it, because he does -- is not a well man. And we have not as a country really dealt with that fact.
"To totally understand where Trump is coming from -- where his authoritarian bent is coming from, and the danger he poses to the country -- we need to start talking about that."

Jeffrey Epstein's brother Mark Epstein reveals the real reason his brother stopped hanging with Trump:
“He said that he stopped hanging out with Donald Trump when he realized Trump was a crook."
This comes one day after the unsealed Epstein documents revealed that a Jeffrey Epstein accuser once claimed Donald Trump had “sexual relations” with one of her unnamed friends at Epstein's New York home “on regular occasions.”1
BREAKING: Fox News fans melt down as a stunning new report destroys their right-wing myth that President Biden has transformed America into a crime ridden wasteland — and in fact shows that things are rapidly improving.
According to figures from data analysis firm AH Datalytics, homicide rates have plummeted by a staggering 13% since last year.
"The overall trend was extraordinarily positive and should be recognized as such," wrote analyst Jeff Asher in his end-of-year summary.
The U.S. is on track to end 2023 with 18,450 homicides compared to 21,156 in 2022. It's worth noting that these numbers would be substantially lower if Republicans would just support common sense gun laws.
Another analysis carried out by ABC News discovered that seven out of the ten largest American cities saw a double-digit decline. New York City dropped by 11%, Los Angeles by 16%, and Chicago by 13%.
Meanwhile, conservative news outlets continue to run wall-to-wall propaganda claiming that Democratically-run cities are overrun with crime.
Unfortunately, 77% of Americans mistakenly believe that crime has spiked in the past year. Over half believe that crime has risen in their area.
"In other words, tell your friends and family because they probably think crime is surging nationally. And in this case, they’re almost certainly wrong," stated Asher.
That is exactly the right approach. We have to spread the truth on this issue. Democrats are solving problems and it falls to all of us to make sure that our fellow voters know it.

@BrandonStraka Don’t break the law then you don’t have to worry about nothing. He chosen to take his life, no one forced him! He took the coward way out!✌🏽
@EdKrassen What’s missed here is it takes two political parties to pass bills and one president to sign it into law. If Both parties can’t create a bipartisan bill, both parties are a failure! Blame both parties! Furthermore, they give money to other countries and neglect America!
