    The police shooting was round the corner from me. Not all facts are out but it seems pretty clear. It was a suicide by cop deal. Distraught guy brandishing a loaded gun holes up in a home on 13th St behind the ACME. Wouldn’t drop it & pointed it at the fuzz.

    Horrible situation. My hope is that situations like these could be deescalated, but I wasn’t there and won’t judge it, at least for now. So it goes.

    Trump keeps Comey at FBI. From NYT:

    WASHINGTON — The F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, told his top agents from around the country that he had been asked by President Trump to stay on the job running the federal government’s top law enforcement agency, according to people familiar with the matter.

    A decision to retain Mr. Comey would spare the president another potentially bruising confirmation battle. It also would keep Mr. Comey at the center of the F.B.I.’s investigation into several Trump associates and their potential ties with the Russian government.
