Coco Gauff meets her idol.......Michelle Obama

U.S. tennis prodigy Cori “Coco” Gauff on Thursday tweeted she was “SPEECHLESS” after meeting her “idol,” former first lady Michelle Obama.

The Florida-based 15-year-old, who beat five-time Wimbledon champion Venus Williams in this year’s tournament and made it to the competition’s last 16, said Obama’s “words and wisdom on my journey will stay with me on the court over the course of my career.”

Federal judicial panel dismisses misconduct charges against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh...

Supreme Court Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh cannot be disciplined for his behavior during last year's calamitous Senate confirmation battle, a federal judicial panel ruled Thursday.

The decision by the Committee on Judicial Conduct and Disability of the Judicial Conference of the United States agreed with a panel of federal judges that Kavanaugh's elevation to the Supreme Court put him out of their jurisdiction.

"Our committee, judicial councils, and chief circuit judges all lack statutory authority to review the merits of complaints against an individual no longer covered under the (Judicial Conduct and Disability) Act," the panel said. "As a Supreme Court justice, Justice Kavanaugh is not a judge subject to the Act."

and then there's this.....James Comey won't be prosecuted over FBI memos.....

The Justice Department inspector general's office referred former FBI Director James Comey for potential prosecution over his handling of memos that the FBI later determined contained classified information, a person familiar with the matter confirmed Thursday.

Justice Department prosecutors declined to prosecute Comey, in part because they didn't believe there was evidence to show Comey knew and intended to violate laws on handling classified information.
At issue were memos that Comey shared with a friend and attorney, Daniel Richman, who then shared the information with a New York Times reporter.
Two memos Comey shared contained information the FBI deemed as "confidential," the lowest classification level.
