Only 1 rider can win grand tours, one day classics, 5 day stage races, gravel and just about anything he puts his mind to @TamauPogi BTW, his #1 goal this year was Tour de Flanders not TDF
What @TMLuongo said
Can we all just note that the system did more to stop people from protesting the police murder of Tyre Nichols last night than it did to prevent a white supremacist mob from storming the US Capitol.
So much to say - The officer at the car stop scene who hopes “they stomp his ass.” The officers holding a handcuffed Tyrie while others beat on him. The police coverup starting immediately with “he reached for my gun.” An often used made up fact by police to justify beatings.

Regardless of what may or may not happen on the litigation front this moment would not have happened w/out the incredible leadership of @peter_f_martin He’s been working tirelessly to insure N.Y. gets a Chief J. whose judicial philosophy reflects the values NY’ers care most about

It’s not just 3 cases! It’s not his heritage. It’s not the “far left vs. moderates.” It’s his judicial philosophy and. It’s wrong for New York @NYSSenate
Excellent op-ed by my dear friend & super smart law prof, the inimitable @dispositive. LaSalle is bad on #immigration, bad on #consumer rights, bad on #workers' rights, bad on civil and criminal rights, and bad for New York. take a read 👇

Today, Gov. Hochul will outline her plan for 2023. Last month, 90 victims advocates, mental health & social justice orgs released a concrete plan for safety & justice that’s rooted in uplifting ALL New Yorkers, rather than jailing them. bit.ly/ResourcesNotJa…

ASC: "Because I've had 14 members come out publicly & say they were not going to confirm the nominee & I've had a number tell me privately they are not going to confirm the nominee, I do not see this ending in the way that the Governor wished it would." gothamgazette.com/state/11765-ma…
I joined 70+ Latinx leaders in opposing the nomination of Hector LaSalle as Chief Judge of the NY Court of Appeals. Diversity is important but not enough. NY must have a diverse and progressive Chief Judge. impactolatino.com/surgen-nuevos-…
" ... diversity of judicial philosophy is equally as important. ...I don’t put my heritage above what I believe to be an appropriate judicial philosophy in our next chief judge.” at.law.com/qAe5t2?cmp=sha… via @NYLawJournal
STATEMENT from members of the Campaign to #CloseRikers, in response to Mayor Adams' apparent refusal to recognize his legal & moral obligation to erase this stain on our city. New Yorkers know better than to think funneling people thru this torture chamber will make us safe.
After reviewing Justice LaSalle’s record and speaking with unions and my constituents, I have concluded that I will vote “no” if this nomination is brought to a vote.
I believe Justice LaSalle represents a continuation of a status quo that sullied the Court’s reputation and ruled inconsistently with NYers values. I will vote ‘no’ should the nomination be brought to the Senate floor

Never done a rest day dinner at home during a Grand Tour before. Thank you @cycling_podcast and @friebos for making the exception.
Age yourself by naming a store/business that is no longer operating. I'll go first: Alexander's.
Who won a motion to suppress, a motion for judgment of acquittal, & beat the State's plea offer at their *1st* trial? My incredible @UMDLaw Criminal Defense Clinic students David Karpay @twidder_bot & Skylar Johnson @Skylar_J11. We celebrate fights not wins, but today we won! 🎉
Four years ago today, we lost our leader and trusted friend, Jeff Adachi. The shock of his passing still hits us, and we continue to feel the loss of this great man who accomplished so much and still had wildly ambitious plans for helping our clients. 1/
Today, we again rose to our leadership responsibilities and ended the ongoing distraction of the Justice Hector LaSalle nomination. We have a state to run. This court case would’ve dragged on for months and stymied our judicial system. It was time to put this matter to rest.
I am excited to announce my commitment to furthering my academic and athletic careers at THE University of Chicago. I’d like to thank @CoachGilcrist for this opportunity, along with my friends and family for their love and support throughout this process. @LaneTechFB @UChicagoFB
What a beautiful night! I am so grateful to everyone who came out to celebrate our office’s many accomplishments, Black History Month, and to witness my oath to the community as I humbly enter a four-year term as San Francisco Public Defender. 1/
NYCDS braved the cold with @FreedomAgendaNY @NYCAIC & others today to stand up and demand accountability for the never ending death, violence, and freezing temperatures on Rikers! #CloseRikers #NoMoreDeaths #TurnOnTheHeat
Say it loud I’m Black and I’m proud! My remarks on NYS Assembly Black History Month Resolution. ✊🏾❤️💚🖤
Not enough trains....never-ending maintenance on crumbling subway infrastructure... if only we had the public dollars to #FixTheMTA...🤔 (Hint: we do. Listen to Senator @JessicaRamos👇) #InvestInOurNY
Also says the MTA doesn't have the trains to actually run all lines at 6 minute headways 24/7; and couldn't do it overnights because of maintenance shutdowns. So that's a blanket on that.
Dog’s new move: Pace in circles by the door like he needs to go out and after I get up to put shoes on he takes my spot on the couch, lets out a sigh, and goes to sleep.
Another life lost. Another family devastated. The Mayor has made the choice to gut social services, refuses to decarcerate our jails & wont hold DOC accountable. Driving up the census on Rikers w his policies & allowing DOC to be uncooperative w oversight bodies.Enough is enough.
🚨 BREAKING: Marvin Pines, who had been held at the Rikers Island jail complex since August, died this morning after he collapsed in a shower. A medical emergency was activated and narcan was administered. He was pronounced at 6:18 a.m. by EMS.
Grateful for my home, new windows that block the below zero temperatures, and furnace that has kept going through it all. Everyone should have a safe, warm place to live.
Injustice is pumping millions into supporting DA but not Public Defenders. Hey @GovKathyHochul the same discovery resources prosecutors need, defenders need! We have clients that deserve that! The DAs in NYC support us getting the same funding they do why don’t you?
We need to ensure our criminal justice system is a trust system of justice for all. That's why we're committing $143.4 million to support district attorneys and fund discovery reform costs, pretrial services, and alternatives to incarceration.
1 in 7 New Yorkers face a life sentence, even after they've been released from incarceration. A Black Future for all means giving even formerly convicted New Yorkers a #CleanSlate and a second chance in life. Support S.211 for a Clean Slate for all. @cleanslateny
I applaud Gov. Hochul's commitment to invest in education, housing, health care, pre-trial services, crime prevention and other priorities. But, I can't support ending the "least restrictive means standard" for bail. Here's my statement on today's budget address:
Black history is US history. Civil rights are human rights. Black Lives Matter. ❤🖤💚
