d2d roulette Google seemed to have a long-term plan for its tablets . Recent reports even talked about the Pixel Tablet 3 coming in 2026. However, industry sources revealed that the company has canceled the development of the Pixel Tablet 2 and its successors. That said, a new report reveals details about the key hardware improvements that the Google Pixel Tablet 2 would have brought. Leaked technical details of the canceled Google Pixel Tablet 2 Previous leaks had revealed that the Google Pixel Tablet 2 would be powered by the Tensor G4 chip. The latest report from Android Authority confirms this, revealing that the Tensor G4 chip would have been slightly weaker. The company would have used an IPoP (Integrated Package on Package) instead of FOPLP (Fan-Out Panel Level Packaging) packaging. This translates into cheaper hardware, but thicker and with worse thermal management. The chip could make sense in a tablet, whose large surface area allows it to dissipate heat much better than a phone. However, leaks have revealed that Google will use the SoC in the Pixel 9a as well. Despite not being the most powerful on the market, the Tensor G4 would have been a notable improvement over the Tensor G2 of the original Pixel Tablet . The Pixel Tablet 2—codenamed “kiyomi”—would also have had a 5G modem. According to the source, Google planned to implement the Exynos 5400 modem of the Pixel 9 series. However, the tablet would not support satellite telecommunications. The presence of a modem would also have enabled GPS support in the variant with cellular connectivity. Thread radio and improved display Like the Pixel 9 series and the Google TV Streamer, the Pixel Tablet 2 would have integrated a Thread radio . Thread is a protocol that seeks to improve the user experience of smart home device ecosystems. Google promoted its first tablet with a big focus on its smart display capabilities. The company saw it as a hub from which to control all your IoT products. So, it makes more sense to integrate the radio into the tablet than in the Pixel 9 lineup, which Thread hardware utility is currently still zero. Regarding the screen, the Pixel Tablet 2 would keep the same technology, size, and resolution. That is, it would have brought a 10.95-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 px. However, the company planned to increase the refresh rate to 120 Hz (previously 60 Hz) and the brightness to 550 nits (previously 500 nits). Better front and rear cameras Lastly, the leak with the details of the Pixel Tablet 2 reveals that Google had plans to improve the cameras. The device would have included a Samsung S5K3K1 front camera (1/3.94′′, 10MP), the same as the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Plus, the device would have upgraded the rear camera to a Samsung S5K3J1 sensor (1/3′′, 11MP, autofocus). Remember that the rear camera of the original Pixel Tablet (Sony IMX355, 1/4′′ 8MP) doesn’t even support autofocus.

The Mountain House High boys soccer team put a resounding end to their poor run of form to start the season when they went 4-0 to win the Ervin Mendiola Memorial Tournament at Woodward Park in Fresno last week. The Mustangs snapped a five-game losing streak when they rolled over Tokay 4-1 in their opener, and they never looked back. The tournament win puts the Mustangs at .500 as they are now 5-5 overall on the year. Junior Jayden Lownes scored twice for Mountain House against the Tigers to lead the way. Junior Luis Gabriel Reynoso was one of the standouts of the whole tournament and he scored his first of four total goals in the Tokay clash. Junior Matthew Valenzuela added the fourth. Senior Priyansh Nath provided two assists and senior Venkata Sai set up one goal. Their first outing of the tourney would be the last time the Mustangs conceded a goal. Senior goalie Keagan Wright recorded three straight shutouts the rest of the way. Mountain House took out Hughson 2-0 in their second game of the day Friday behind a pair of goals from Reynoso. Nath added another assist. In the semifinals on Saturday, the Mustangs edged out Oakdale 1-0 with Reynoso scoring the winner. The Mustangs faced Downey in the championship game. They were taken to the promised land by a late goal from junior Santiago Jeri which sealed first place. Wright had a monster game with 11 saves and another clean sheet. Mountain House followed up their tournament success with a huge 1-0 statement win over West High at home Tuesday night behind a goal from Lownes. It was assisted by junior Rhys Dominguez. Mountain House is now 6-5 overall. The Wolf Pack dropped to 2-2 in the defeat and will face Enochs next on Thursday night. Falcons take bronze Millennium is now 4-2-1 on the year after going 2-1-1 at the Ervin Mendiola Memorial Classic in Manteca last week. After losing their opener to Downey 4-0, the Falcons went unbeaten the rest of the way to claim bronze. They tied Lodi 0-0 in game two of the first day. Millennium then took out Manteca with a 2-0 win to start Day 2 before dominating Tokay 4-0 in the third-place playoff. Patterson 2, Tracy 0 The ‘Dogs are winless since their 3-0 season-opening win over Millennium before Thanksgiving. Their defeat to the Tigers saw them drop to 1-1-2. Patterson ran out comprehensive victors against the ‘Dogs courtesy of goals from Adrian Gutierrez and Andrew Diaz. Tracy will face Mountain House on the road up next on Thursday night. Sierra 3, Kimball 0 The Jaguars are still looking for their first win of the winter with their loss to the Timberwolves seeing their record drop to 0-5.

House Democrats have made it clear to Speaker Mike Johnson that they won’t launch another rescue attempt to allow him to retain the speakership. Johnson is set to have the narrowest of majorities in the next Congress and will have little room to maneuver with a caucus in which some members are angling to take him out. Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky has said that he’ll vote against Johnson as speaker on January 3. A number of other members of the party have said that they’re undecided, according to Axios . Johnson may only be able to lose a single vote with a majority of 219 to 215. Last week, Johnson decided not to push on with the federal funding package he negotiated with the Democrats to instead launch a slimmer version with an extension of the debt limit as demanded by President-elect Donald Trump. House Democrats accused the speaker of reneging on their agreement, and they chose not to support the bill as a caucus. While Johnson subsequently succeeded in passing the legislation without raising the debt ceiling, the trust with Democrats had already been broken. Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries of New York made clear during a caucus meeting Friday that relations with Johnson were going downhill, according to Axios . He noted that Johnson had gone back on his word on the funding deal and that he had allowed communications to cease at times during the past week, three lawmakers told the outlet. Rep. Pete Aguilar of California, the House Democratic Caucus chair, said that he won’t ask members to save Johnson like they did in May. Appearing on MSNBC on Sunday, Jeffries told host and former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki that there’s a “real risk” that Johnson may be unable to be elected speaker on January 3. “There will be no Democrats available to save him,” he said. Several House Democrats who voted to save Johnson earlier this year told Axios Sunday that Johnson can no longer rely on them to retain the speakership. Centrist Democrat Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas said he’ll “follow leadership.” Meanwhile, fellow centrist Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi of New York said he was voting with Jeffries. Michigan Democrat Rep. Haley Stevens told the outlet that Jeffries “is correct.” "It’s up to the Republicans to lead on governance now," she added. "If they need us they have to really make it worth our while, but [it] doesn’t seem likely that they will.” This comes as Trump is considering attempting to boot Johnson from his post, according to Politico . Trump is reportedly unhappy with the funding deal and that he didn’t get the debt ceiling hike he sought. “The president is upset — he wanted the debt ceiling dealt with,” a person in Trump’s circle told the outlet. “In the past couple weeks, we’ve questioned whether [Johnson has] been an honest broker,” another person said. “I don’t see how Johnson survives,” yet another individual told Politico . But Johnson’s bid for the speaker’s gavel is still officially backed by Trump and the Republican conference, which unanimously nominated him for another term as speaker in November. However, even if Johnson manages to win the speakership another time on January 3, there’s no guarantee that he’ll last the full two-year term. While the threshold to introduce a motion to remove the speaker has been raised to nine lawmakers, Johnson may still face the boot. Johnson is facing outrage from both his party’s conservatives and the grassroots activists outside Congress. They are both saying that he needs to do more to cut government spending. Rep. Troy Nehls, Republican of Texas, remains undecided on whether he’ll support Johnson. He told Axios last week that Johnson will need Democratic votes to keep the gavel. A Democrat from a swing district told Axios that they thought they would help Johnson “in a tough Speaker vote because he was true to his word even in hard times.” "That has absolutely changed now. Trust is all we have in these negotiations,” they added. “I thought Johnson was truly different. He’s no better than [former Speaker Kevin] McCarthy. He’s getting no help from me and I know many of my colleagues feel the same." "He has betrayed our trust and we will never trust him again to hold to any agreement,” Vermont Democrat Rep. Becca Balint told Axios . She also voted to support Johnson in May.Selection Sunday is still more than 13 weeks away and, unlike in college football, a handful of early losses can’t squash the highest hopes of college basketball teams. Still, on just the 14th of December, the Arizona Wildcats might be playing something of a must-win game against No. 24 UCLA in Phoenix. A win would be the Wildcats’ first over a power-conference team this season, sending them on a course to finish the nonconference season at 7-4 and possibly return them into Top 25 consideration. A loss moves the Wildcats (4-4) back under .500 and, even with wins over Samford and Central Michigan in their final nonconference games, means they’re just 6-5 heading into the potentially brutal Big 12 schedule. Then, even with a respectable 12 or 13 wins between Big 12 regular-season and tournament play, the Wildcats could still land below the 20-win mark and likely in NCAA Tournament bubble territory. Actually, ESPN’s Bracketology has already put them there, listing UA earlier this week as the “first team out” in its first forecast of NCAA Tournament selections. It’s not hard to do the math. But, in one sense, the Wildcats don’t need to. They already consider their house on fire. “When you’re 4-4 at Arizona, you need every win,” longtime UA associate head coach Jack Murphy said. “I mean, c’mon. We’re 4-4 at Arizona. That’s not where we want to be. No one in the program. We’re looking at every game.” During his weekly media gathering Thursday, UA coach Tommy Lloyd said he still would consider Saturday’s game just as important if the Wildcats were 8-0 or 7-1, and that there will be plenty of opportunities ahead to redeem themselves. But he also described a sense of urgency. “We’re at where we’re at. We’re at where we’re at,” Lloyd said. “The only way to improve our situation is to try to come out and play good on Saturday. We just can’t get any further ahead than that because that’s all that matters. “I wish I could sit here and guarantee how it’s going to go, but that’s sports. I can’t. Hopefully our guys have a grit, a toughness, about them to try to find a way to play well in this game because I know it’s not going to be easy.” Arizona Wildcats head coach Tommy Lloyd expresses disbelief over a referee call in the second half during a game at McKale Center on Nov. 22, 2024. Duke won 69-55. Revived with four new starters out of the transfer portal, UCLA has reverted to the sort of high-level defensive team under coach Mick Cronin that will test how tough they are. The Bruins have the nation’s fourth-most efficient defense and force more turnovers than anybody in college basketball. They have ball-denying wing veterans in Kobe Johnson and Skyy Clark, a versatile skilled big man in Tyler Bilodeau and Cronin’s constant defensive focus lit under all of them. “They’ve got some new pieces but they didn’t just clean house either,” Lloyd said. “A lot of their guys are back and established in their program. They continue to get better and have a conviction to what they do.” Lloyd said the Bruins “didn’t have a UCLA type of year” last season, when they went just 16-17 and exited the Pac-12 Tournament in the quarterfinals, while Cronin drew a slight comparison from that team to what the Wildcats are going through now. “Obviously they’ve had a changing of the guard, so to speak,” Cronin said. Lloyd had Oumar “Ballo and (Pelle) Larsson, two guys who were unbelievable, especially Larsson. So they’ve had a lot of change in their personnel... (and) I just think they played a really hard schedule for a team (that has to) incorporate so many new pieces.” Among other possible cures, Lloyd said Thursday he wanted point guard Jaden Bradley to keep pushing a faster pace – “I don’t think I’ve ever had a one-guard that I’ve coached that I’ve said he’s pushed it too much,” Lloyd said – and that wing Caleb Love needed to give a more consistent effort. Arizona guard Jaden Bradley, left, bounces off UCLA guard Lazar Stefanovic in a January 2024 game at McKale Center. The Wildcats and Bruins will meet in three nonconference games in upcoming years, in part to help raise money for NIL for both schools. “Will you run hard when you don’t think you’re going to get the ball? Are you in the moment playing hard or are you relaxing because you don’t think you’re part of the play when you’re on the weak side glass?” Lloyd said. “Does it matter to you? Are you engaged enough to understand that ... you’re vital in our team’s rebounding? “Those are the areas I’m focusing on with Caleb, because I think once we can establish that — and he has done it in times in this program — I think it’s going to bleed over into the other areas of the game.” But at the same time, Lloyd said it wasn’t about challenging any one player, as it has been sometimes in the past, but about challenging everyone. The Wildcats are 4-4, after all. That’s a message all of them should have heard pretty clearly by now. “I think if you just start focusing on one guy, you might be missing the bigger picture,” Lloyd said. “I think everybody needs to give more. I think everybody needs to play with a little more awareness. I think everybody needs to play with a little more swag and confidence. “So I don’t have a one guy for you. The message right now is, it’s everybody. It needs to be a total team effort.” Love, for one, said he’s in. Arizona Wildcats guard Caleb Love (1) attempts to charge through Thunderbirds center Malik Lamin (32) during the match against Southern Utah, McKale Center, Dec. 7, 2024. “This is another opportunity that we have in front of us,” he said. “We’ve been preparing all week and my teammates, the coaches, managers – everybody – we’ve all been locked in.” Who: Arizona (4-4) vs. UCLA (7-1) When: 1 p.m. Where: Footprint Center, Phoenix Watch: ESPN2 Listen: 1290-AM, 107.5-FM Contact sports reporter Bruce Pascoe at bpascoe@tucson.com .

ReporterHaliburton County unveils 'an exciting addition to our community' installed in area parksKash Patel is Donald Trump ‘s pick to lead the Federal Bureau of Investigation, making him another member of the Trump Media & Technology Group DJT board to be selected for a position in the president-elect's next administration. What Happened: Patel is well-known as a loyal Trump supporter and, in the past, has spoken publicly about overhauling the FBI. Patel previously worked for Trump on the National Security Council in 2019. Patel also helped with the Pentagon transition effort from Trump to Biden, as reported by CNN . Along with his past experience working for the National Security Council, Patel also plays a role with Trump Media & Technology Group, which was co-founded by Trump. Patel serves as a director on the company’s board. Trump Media CEO Devin Nunes recently congratulated Patel on Trump's announcement. "An immensely talented lawyer and investigator with an unimpeachable devotion to our Constitution, Kash is a brilliant pick to serve as Director of the FBI," Nunes said in a press release. Nunes said he worked closely with Patel to "expose the saboteurs within the Intelligence Community who perpetuated the Russia collusion hoax." Patel previously served as an aide to Nunes when he was a U.S. representative and the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, CNN reported. Did You Know? Congress Is Making Huge Investments. Get Tips On What They Bought And Sold Ahead Of The 2024 Election With Our Easy-to-Use Tool Patel's Wealth : A formal nomination of Patel as FBI director could shed more light on his finances and wealth, but right now, limited sources indicate how rich Trump’s anticipated nominee is likely to be. Since Trump left the White House after losing the 2020 election, Patel has remained close with the former president and has grown his wealth through merchandise related to Trump and positions with foundations. Patel was paid $130,000 last year as part of a consulting agreement between his company Trishul and Trump Media and Technology Group. Patel serves as an independent contractor of TMTG in exchange for an annual payment of $120,000 plus out-of-pocket reimbursements, according to a company filing . Patel is the author of a children's book trilogy called "The Plot Against the King." The book series features characters like King Donald, Sleepy Joe and Hillary Queenton, weaving plots about spreading lies to seize the throne and efforts to unseat "Comma-la-la-la-la" to reclaim it. Patel also founded the Kash Foundation, previously known as Fight With Kash, which provides financial assistance to active duty service members and veterans. Trump's leadership PAC has paid Patel over $300,000 since the start of 2023, the Associated Press reported. Patel has also promoted pills that claim to reverse the effects of the COVID-19 vaccine, Newsweek reported . Merchandise sold under the "K$H brand" includes playing cards and apparel that may also add to Patel's wealth and sources of income related to Trump. Patel also served as a producer on the song "Justice For All," which was penned by the Jan. 6 Prison Choir singing "The Star-Spangled Banner" mixed with Trump reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. What's Next: Like other nominees announced by Trump, no formal approval process has occurred yet as he awaits his January inauguration. Similar to other Cabinet nominations, a formal nomination of Patel by Trump would need to be approved and confirmed by the Senate. Prediction market Polymarket shows odds of 61% that Patel will be confirmed by the Senate. The market resolves as Yes and pays out at $1 per Yes contract if Patel is confirmed as the FBI Director by June 30, 2025. A rejection by the Senate, a withdrawal of Patel's nomination or an appointment approved during the Recess party without Senate confirmation will close at No and pay out $1 for No contracts and at zero for Yes contracts. On Polymarket, users can deposit funds using USDC USDC/USD via the Polygon MATIC/USD network, or directly from a crypto account with Ethereum ETH/USD . Like the 2024 election markets, the odds on potential Cabinet members are becoming hot betting markets on Polymarket. Read Next: Trump HHS Pick Robert F.

Library Lines: Contra Costa system will soon launch Self-Service SundaysATLANTA (AP) — Even the woeful NFC South, where no team has a winning record, can't hide the Atlanta Falcons' offensive shortcomings. Three straight setbacks, including an ugly 17-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, has left the Falcons 6-6 and feeling the pressure. Only a tiebreaker advantage over Tampa Bay has kept the Falcons atop the division. Now the Falcons must prepare to visit streaking Minnesota, which has won five straight . Veteran defensive tackle Grady Jarrett knows the Falcons must solve the flaws which have been exposed in the losing streak. “It’s now or never,” Jarrett said. “You have to flip the mindset fast.” Kirk Cousins threw four interceptions in the loss, matching his career high. Coach Raheem Morris said he didn't consider playing rookie Michael Penix Jr. against the Chargers and won't think about benching Cousins this week. Morris acknowledged the Falcons can't expect to win when turning the ball over four times. It was the latest example of Atlanta's offensive decline. In the three-game losing streak, Cousins has thrown six interceptions with no touchdowns. The Falcons were held under 20 points in each loss. If not for the rash of interceptions which has contributed to the scoring problems, more attention would be devoted to the surge of big plays on defense. The defense forced two fumbles and set a season high with five sacks, including two by Arnold Ebiketie. The Falcons ranked last in the league with only 10 sacks before finding success with their pass rush against Justin Herbert. Herbert was forced to hold the ball while looking for an open receiver, so some credit for the pass-rush success belongs to Atlanta's secondary. The Falcons gave up only two first downs in the second half and 187 yards for the game. Cousins, 36, was expected to be the reliable leader on offense after he signed a four-year, $180 million contract. The four interceptions were his most since 2014 with Washington. Cousins now will be in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons as he returns to Minnesota, his NFL home from 2018-23. Cousins has thrown 13 interceptions, one shy of his career high set in 2022. His passer rating of 90.8 is his lowest since his 86.4 mark as a part-time starter in 2014 with Washington. “Certainly when you haven’t played at the standard you want to a few weeks in a row, you know, you do want to change that, turn it around,” Cousins said. Running back Bijan Robinson had his busiest day of the season, perhaps in an attempt to take heat off Cousins. Robinson's 26 carries set a career high. He ran for 102 yards with a touchdown, his third 100-yard game of the season. He also was heavily involved as a receiver with six catches for 33 yards. With 135 yards from scrimmage, Robinson has eight games this season with more than 100 yards combined as a rusher and receiver, the second-most in the league. Tight end Kyle Pitts had no catches on only two targets. He has only six catches in the last four games after appearing to establish momentum for a big season with two seven-catch games in a span of three weeks in October. Morris noted the Falcons have “so many people that we've got to get the ball to” but noted he'd like to see Pitts more involved. Younghoe Koo's hip issues were such a concern that kicker Riley Patterson was signed to the practice squad on Friday and added to the active roster Saturday. Patterson was on the inactive list as Koo was good on two of three field goals, missing from 35 yards. Koo has made 21 of 29 attempts this season. He did not have more than five misses in any of his first five seasons with Atlanta. 70 — WR Drake London had nine receptions for 86 yards, giving him 70 catches for the season. London, a 2022 first-round draft pick, is the first player in team history with at least 65 receptions in each of his first three seasons. While Ray-Ray McCloud III led the team with a career-best 95 yards on four catches against the Chargers and Darnell Mooney has had some big games, London has been the most consistent receiver. The Falcons face a difficult test Sunday in their visit to Minnesota (10-2), which has five straight wins and is 5-1 at home. AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Freshman wide receiver threw a 25-yard touchdown pass to Dane Pardridge on the first play of double overtime and ended the game on a fourth-down sack to give Northern Illinois a 28-20 victory over Fresno State on Monday in the Idaho Potato Bowl. Dimopoulos, who played quarterback in high school, also converted the two-point conversion when he passed it to quarterback Josh Holst for his second completion of the season. Holst, a freshman walk-on, was making just his third start at quarterback as NIU was without starter Ethan Hampton, who entered with 1,600 yards and 12 touchdowns to go with six interceptions. Holst completed 18 of 30 passes for 182 and two touchdowns for Northern Illinois (8-5). He was also intercepted on the first play of the game. Both teams missed a 35-yard field goal in the final three minutes of regulation, including Dylan Lynch's third miss of the game on the final play to send it to overtime. Fresno State started overtime with a touchdown when Bryson Donelson was left wide open out of the backfield to haul in a 9-yard touchdown pass. NIU needed five plays, and a defensive holding penalty, to score as Holst found Grayson Barnes for a 3-yard touchdown. Donelson finished with 15 carries for 82 yards and a touchdown for Fresno State (6-7). He added three catches for 28 yards and another score. Dual-threat quarterback Joshua Wood was 16 of 23 for 180 yards and a touchdown. Mac Dalena made six catches for 118 yards to help go over 1,000 yards for the season. Fresno State was without 14 players, including starting quarterback Mikey Keene after he transferred to Michigan. Two top-three receivers, Jalen Moss and Raylen Sharpe, also did not play as the Bulldogs were forced to use five new starters. Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.

Niger's ruling junta has suspended the BBC from broadcasting for three months, accusing the outlet of disseminating false information that could destabilize the region. The accusation comes after the BBC reported an extremist attack in which dozens were allegedly killed, a claim the government denies. Authorities argue that such reporting undermines troop morale and social calm. This suspension is the latest in a series of media restrictions imposed by Niger and its neighboring countries amid ongoing security challenges and tension in the Sahel, with juntas increasingly expelling Western media and turning to alternative security alliances.

As New York City prosecutors worked Thursday to bring murder charges against Luigi Mangione in the brazen killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, supporters of the suspect are donating tens of thousands of dollars for a defense fund established for him, leaving law enforcement officials worried Mangione is being turned into a martyr. Several online defense funds have been created for Mangione by anonymous people, including one on the crowdfunding website GiveSendGo that as of Thursday afternoon had raised over $50,000. The GiveSendGo defense fund for the 26-year-old Mangione was established by an anonymous group calling itself "The December 4th Legal Committee," apparently in reference to the day Mangione allegedly ambushed and gunned down Thompson in Midtown Manhattan as the executive walked to his company's shareholders conference at the New York Hilton hotel. "We are not here to celebrate violence, but we do believe in the constitutional right to fair legal representation," the anonymous group said in a statement. The crowdfunding campaign prompted donations from more than 1,500 anonymous donors across the country, many of them leaving messages of support for Mangione, including one person who called themselves "A frustrated citizen" and thanked Mangione for "sparking the awareness and thought across this sleeping nation." The GiveSendGo fund for Mangione appeared to be briefly taken down before it was restored on Thursday. In a statement to ABC News, a spokesperson for GiveSendGo said the company "operates with a principle of not preemptively determining guilt or innocence." "Our platform does not adjudicate legal matters or the validity of causes. Instead, we allow campaigns to remain live unless they violate the specific terms outlined in our Terms of Use. Importantly, we do allow campaigns for legal defense funds, as we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to access due process," the GiveSendGo spokesperson said. The spokesperson added, "We understand the concerns raised by such campaigns and take these matters seriously. When campaigns are reported, our team conducts a thorough review to ensure they comply with our policies. While other platforms may choose a different approach, GiveSendGo's core value is to provide a space where all individuals, no matter their situation, can seek and receive support, with donors making their own informed decisions." Other crowdfunding sites such as GoFundMe have also taken down campaigns soliciting donations for Mangione's defense. "GoFundMe's Terms of Service prohibit fundraisers for the legal defense of violent crimes," the crowdfunding website said in a statement. "The fundraisers have been removed from our platform and all donors have been refunded." MORE: Executive 'hit lists' and wanted posters: NYPD warns about threats to executives Amazon and Etsy have removed from their websites merchandise featuring Mangione, including T-shirts and tote bags reading "Free Luigi" and the phrase "Deny, Defend, Depose," words police said were etched in the shell casings discovered at the scene of Thompson's homicide. "Celebrating this conduct is abhorrent to me. It's deeply disturbing," Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg told ABC News senior investigative reporter Aaron Katersky in an interview Wednesday night. "And what I would say to members of the public, people who as you described are celebrating this and maybe contemplating other action, that we will be vigilant and we will hold people accountable. We are at the ready." Prosecutors at the Manhattan district attorney's office have begun presenting evidence to a grand jury as they work to try to secure an indictment against Mangione, sources told ABC News on Thursday. MORE: UnitedHealthcare CEO killing sparks hostility by some toward chief executives Mangione's attorney, Thomas Dickey of Altoona, Pennsylvania, where the suspect was arrested Monday following a five-day manhunt, said his client is presumed innocent and will plead not guilty to any charges filed against him. Mangione is contesting extradition to New York. Asked about people contributing to Mangione defense funds that have popped up, Dickey said, "People are entitled to their opinion and, like I said, if you're an American and you believe in the American criminal justice system, you have to presume him to be innocent and none of us would want anything other than that if that were us in their shoes. So, I'm glad he had some support." In a later interview on CNN, Dickey said he is leaning toward not accepting any money from his client's supporters for his defense. "To be honest with you, I probably wouldn't," Dickey told CNN. "I just don't feel comfortable about that. So, I don't know. I haven't given that much thought. Obviously, my client appreciates the support that he has, but I don't know, it just doesn't sit right with me, really." Retired FBI special agent Richard Frankel said that in previous politically-charged violent crimes, suspects have received unsolicited support. "We saw it with the Unabomber," said Frankel, an ABC News contributor, referring to Ted Kaczynski -- the mathematician-turn-domestic terrorist who blamed technology for a decline of individual freedom and mailed handcrafted explosives to targeted individuals between 1978 and 1995. Frankel said Eric Rudolph, who detonated a bomb in Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park during the 1996 Olympic Games and carried out three additional bombings as he eluded capture for five years, also attracted supporters. "In my opinion, they're supporting individuals who have committed potentially terrorist acts, but it's a politically charged act," Frankel said Referring to the Thompson killing, Frankel added, "You can be up in arms about the healthcare industry, but you can't threaten or actually hurt members of the healthcare industry." Most recently, Marine veteran Daniel Penny was acquitted of criminally negligent homicide in the chokehold death of Jordan Neely, a homeless man who was acting erratically on a New York City subway, after supporters donated more than $3 million to his legal defense fund. Law enforcement officials have expressed concern that Mangione is being turned into a martyr. Someone this week pasted "wanted posters" outside the New York Stock Exchange naming other executives.

"Many social media users have outright advocated for the continued killings of CEOs with some aiming to spread fear by posting 'hit lists,'" the bulletin, obtained by ABC News, reads. Meanwhile, New York Police Department investigators continue to build a murder case against Mangione, who is being held in Pennsylvania on charges stemming from his arrest there, including illegal possession of ghost gun and fraudulent identification. Mangione has pleaded not guilty to the charges in Pennsylvania. On Wednesday, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said that the three shell casings recovered at the scene of Thompson's shooting matched the gun found in Mangione possession when he was arrested. She also confirmed that Mangione's fingerprints were recovered from a water bottle and the wrapper of a granola bar found near the crime scene.
