Y'all, it's Monday, we got a lot of news to talk about and break down today, so let's just jump into it.

Starting with... In news that makes me sometimes wish that I was reporting this in front of a live audience so I could gauge reaction,

Derek Chauvin was stabbed in prison and or but he is expected to recover.

The Federal Bureau of Prisons on Friday saying that the stabbing happened in Tucson, Arizona,

employees contained the incident and performed life saving measures before

Chauvin was taken to the hospital, though notably at the time they didn't name the

inmate in question, but you also had sources telling several outlets of the person who

had been stabbed was Derek Chauvin and that he had been seriously injured.

And shortly after those reports, Minnesota's attorney general confirmed who it was.

Though over the weekend you had the BOP still refusing to identify the inmate who was stabbed or

comment on their condition, saying for privacy and safety reasons, we are not providing the name of the victim or their medical status.

And actually even one of Chauvin's own lawyers said he was unable to get any information

from BOP telling reporters the information has been stonewalled and adding,

I have reached out to the prison six times and asked to speak to somebody and each time I was rebuffed.

Now despite all that a spokesperson for the Minnesota AG

has since said that Chauvin is expected to survive the attack and

while if you look online people have varying reactions to the news of the

stabbing and him surviving.

Regardless of those opinions, this incident has brought renewed scrutiny to the BOP and its

inability to protect high-profile inmates.

Because the BOP has been closely watched and criticized for this in particular in the years following

Jeffrey Epstein's death while incarcerated in 2019.
