Becca and Jimmy join Cenk for SCS. Jimmy talks about seeing a bizarre Gallagher show a couple of days ago. The man that called the police to the pool party in McKinney TX is being mercilessly mocked on Twitter for his fearful call. Two NYPD officers pulled over and cuffed a man. His cell phone caught them admitting to each other that they don’t have a reason to arrest him, and that they would just make something up. Video of the crime. A law that was on the books but rarely enforced would arrest people that erase their browser history when it could’ve led to information in an investigation. This is in relation to the friend of the Boston bombers that deleted his browser history to protect his friend.
