It's been dubbed the nuclear option because it threatens to further erode one of the defining institutional quirks of the Senate â the filibuster â as well as the culture of the chamber that sees itself as more bipartisan and statesmanlike than the House of Representatives.
A+E Networks. On this day in 1997, comedian and TV star Bill Cosbyâs 27-year-old son Ennis Cosby is murdered after he stops to fix a flat tire along Californiaâs Interstate 405 in Los Angeles. The 405, which runs some 70 miles from Irvine to San Fernando, is known as one of the planetâs busiest and most congested roadways.
The Cosbys blamed American racism for their son's death. They claimed that white racism had been instilled in the Russian guy once he was in America. My impression was that Cosby *was* gutted and broken by the death of his only son, and that it seems he lost his appetite for raping women after the loss. Now the statute of limitations is passed on all the rape cases so he can't be prosecuted.
