Padilla: Do you believe government officials are obligated to follow court orders whether they agree with them or not?Β 

Bondi: I wish you loved your state of California as much as you hate President Trump.

Padilla: I asked a simple yes or no question

NOTABLE -- Pam Bondi refuses to answer direct questions about if the FBI has incriminating photos of Trump with half-naked young women, but instead deflects from them by attacking Sen. Whitehouse

What a drive:

- Burn 43 seconds and a TO on two Trevor scrambles
- Gorgeous, world-class throw up the sideline
- Delay of game with a stopped clock
- PI at exactly the right time
- Trevor trips and scrambles for a TD anyway

Trump doesn't rule out a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell:

"I mean, I'd have to speak to the DOJ. I'll look at it."

Important to note ICE tends to drop off detainees before 9 a.m. and after 6 p.m., which is why people were protesting at 5 a.m. to begin with. It's not because waking up at 4 a.m. was a convenient time for protesters!

The Blue Jays have 8 home runs and 7 strikeouts so far this postseason

They’re the second team in postseason history with more home runs than strikeouts in their first two games of a single postseason, joining:

2005 White Sox, 6 homers & 4 strikeouts

According to eyewitnesses, armed ICE agents dragged kids out of their beds in the middle of the night, zip tied them and put them in rented vans while raiding an * entire apartment building* on the South Side of Chicago.

Washington D.C. - Bijan Robinson has been selected as the Week 5 NFL Players
Association (NFLPA) Community MVP after hosting a book fair for more than 7,700 kids in Atlanta.
After learning nearly 70 percent of third-and fourth-grade Atlanta students were reading below proficient level, the Atlanta Falcons running back felt compelled to do his part in addressing the growing literacy rate crisis. On September 23, Robinson welcomed students from more than 35
elementary schools in the Atlanta Public Schools (APS) district to Mercedes Benz
Stadium for a memorable event.

REPORTER: Should ERs check immigration status before treating a dying patient?

LEAVITT: That's probably not a question for me to answer. That's a question for healthcare professionals and legal experts to answer.

Buster Posey said he spoke to Bruce Bochy and told him that he doesn’t view him as a managerial candidate given the direction they want to go, but there will always be a role for him with the Giants if he wants it.

I continue to think that one of the reasons this country is falling apart is the wholesale abandonment of public virtue as a broadly shared aspiration. Or even something people should be embarrassed about if they don’t have it.

Dodger bullpen is amazing. That team is like a custom made electric Ferrari that gets 1200 miles on a charge, goes 0-60 in 1.8 seconds, has a 30-speaker stereo that makes it sound like you're at a live concert, and also there's no floor and your feet just drag on the pavement as you drive.
