'It seems to me like he's just flipped out, but we'll get discovery and find out about his mental health,' Dershowitz said in interview Sunday.

'If he's mentally ill and he's doing this as a result of mental illness, I'll drop this lawsuit,' he added.

'But if he's doing it because he's nasty and arrogant and using me as a shill for his humor, then I'm going to proceed. He can't go around saying that I killed my wife.'

Dershowitz has been married to Carolyn Cohen since 1986. His first wife Sue Barlach, with whom he shared two children, took her own life in 1983, a decade after they separated.

Tim Walz Might Run for President in 2028 if You Ask Him Nicely

Kamala Harris’s running mate describes losing in 2024, opposing Donald Trump now, and his future.

There was a moment not long ago when we all got to know Tim Walz—a big, bluff, good-humored guy, born in Nebraska, who became a teacher, a football coach, and the governor of Minnesota. For three months last year, he campaigned on the national ticket with Kamala Harris. As late as Election Day, Walz was convinced that he and Harris were headed to the White House. He was going to be the Vice-President of the United States, living at the Naval Observatory, one heartbeat away from the Presidency. Donald Trump’s preëlection rally at Madison Square Garden, with all its extremist rhetoric, augured victory to Walz.

“It just felt like people would choose a calmness and a hopefulness over that,” Walz told me the other day, from his office in Minneapolis. “Obviously, Donald Trump knew more about America on November 5, 2024, than I did.”

The pain of losing will not soon abate. “That’s one I’ll take with me to the grave,” he said in a long conversation with me for The New Yorker Radio Hour. As Walz follows the chaotic course of the second Trump Administration, he feels that he “let people down,” he said. “An old white guy who ran for Vice-President, you’ll land on your feet pretty well. But I still struggle with it. It was my job to get this one. And now when I see Medicaid cuts happening, when I see L.G.B.T.Q. folks being demonized, when I see some of this happening, that’s what weighs on me personally.” The sense of regret runs deep: “I knew what my job was. It wasn’t to become Vice-President. It was to protect the most vulnerable. It was to make sure that we balance the budget. It’s to make sure that we keep peace in the world, make sure we tackle climate change, make sure that women make their own reproductive rights. All of those things are at stress right now.”

Since the election, Walz told me, he and Harris have spoken only “a couple times.” He explained, “I’m doing my job, and she’s doing her job, and she’s out in California, I believe, living, and I’m here in beautiful Minnesota, where the weather’s always great.” When I asked why they don’t call or text, Walz said, laughing, “Well, maybe she doesn’t want to talk to me after we got this thing done. No, I think it’s just there’ll be a time and a place. But we left good, and my family misses her. My daughter, especially.”

He described his relationship with Harris as “professional.” “It was clear that she was the top of the ticket, and my job was there to support her,” Walz said. “She inspired me. I think there were a lot of things that America never knew about her. When I found out she was a band kid, I’m, like, Why aren’t we running ads on that?”
