Fair Fight, a voting rights group, argued the challenges were frivolous and aimed at discouraging voters, particularly Black voters, ahead of key Senate runoffs. True the Vote denied intimidation claims, stating their actions were legitimate. Judges questioned the intent, noting none of the challenges succeeded, while a lower court previously ruled in True the Vote’s favor but criticized their methods as "reckless."

The Clerk of the Appellate Courts in Tennessee is an appointed position – one you may not be aware of.Very few people ever see an appellate court clerk at work, but their role is crucial in keeping the courts open, well-organized, and transparent. On this episode of Tennessee Court Talk we get to know Jim Hivner, who has served as Clerk of the Appellate Courts for ten years. He talks to Nick Morgan about the role of e-filing, what his job entails in and out of the courtroom, and even his favorite casserole. Listen to learn more the Appellate Court Clerk of Tennessee. 

If the New York Times celebrates your Christianity, then be afraid. Be very afraid. I must admit that being a professing Christian is not an easy thing, particularly today. I hate religious ‘posturing' - especially in myself. The scripture is clear: Facts and action are clearly what define true religion. The Pharisee and tax collector, one a false ‘religious' leader, the other a genuinely broken, penitent man, is one of Christ's more poignant teachings on this. The Good Samaritan another. How real is your, or my faith? So it is with sadness and carefulness that I must insist mentioning the actual actions: the facts and policies of the late President, James Earl Carter. The recent media swoon and adulation compel me. They swoon precisely because of his policies. They adulate for his leftist, neo-marxist legacy, carefully clothed in wool. While giving us the smiling face of a Southern Baptist Sunday School teacher, Jimmy Carter implemented some of the most family-destructive cultural policies our nation has now come to suffer. The first Presidential Conference on Families sounded truly wonderful and nearly conservative, except for the fact that it was here, quietly, that the federal government first declared homosexual couples to be ‘families.' The Christian sacrament of matrimony was directly assaulted with a toothy Baptist grin. The real legacy of any President is the Courts they leave behind. Those justices will serve for life. You should know that every judge Jimmy Carter appointed was first vetted by the most radical abortion attorney in the nation, and her subsequent leftist panel on the judiciary. Carter appointed a total of 262 federal judges during his four years in the White House, more than any single-term president in U.S. history. And despite never getting to appoint a Supreme Court nominee, Carter's judicial appointments were history-making in their own right. That's because he appointed a record number of minority and female jurists during his presidency, 57 minority judges and 41 female. BUT IT WAS NOT their color or plumbing that made them eligible candidates in the Carter world, it was their unabashed commitment to leftist ideology. Strangely, the media at the time never examined the issue of ‘Judicial Temperment'. But that is precisely why Jimmy's judges were appointed. They had the temperment the press desired. When Ronald Reagan made appointments THEN the actual thinking and policies really mattered to the media, regardless of a candidates' gender or color, Reagan's appointments were excoriated. Legal knowledge and “judicial appointment help” for Carter came from Sarah Weddington, the Texas attorney who, at 26, had successfully argued Roe v. Wade before the Supreme Court. She had joined the Carter administration as an aide for women's issues and leaked (the even then, notorious) Ruth Bader Ginsburg's name as an Appellate Court pick to the press. She hoped by making it public, then Carter wouldn't be able to backtrack. As soon as Weddington leaked it, though, she went to the Oval Office and told the president what she'd done. He “didn't mind,” she later told the Washington Post. Yes, Jimmy Carter truly and faithfully served the leftist media-zeitgeist. For this his memory is now acclaimed. We too must remember. Mr. Carter in many ways served as a precursor to the ‘bumbling' leftist assault we saw in the recent Biden Administration. He was an easily manipulated figurehead who allowed far-left staffers to simply have their way through him. One recognizable difference was that Mr. Carter freely accepted and then implemented the radical policies into which he was hornswoggled and manipulated. Biden? We really don't know how much Biden actually understood; he was officially found mentally unfit to stand trial by his own Department of Justice. Jimmy Carter consciously and intentionally implemented policies designed to destroy the family and respect for innocent human life. You don't learn that in Sunday School.

This episode is dedicated to Robb Chadwick, who passed away in mid-December. Robb was a great friend, a supporter of this podcast and a true Southern gentleman. His insight and knowledge of the facts of many cases, along with his kind and calm debate strategy will be missed by many. RIP, Robb.In Episode 14, State of Maryland v. Adnan Masud Syed, Lisa was joined by Robb Chadwick, a former journalist with a life-long interest in the truth of true crime and fairness for victims. Since his retirement, Robb has researched and written about a number of cases — but none more than the case of the day: the murder of Hae Min Lee by Adnan Masud Syed. On January 13, 1999, Hae Min Lee disappeared after leaving Woodlawn High School, where she was a popular athlete and scholar. Police looking for her questioned several people, including her current boyfriend and ex-boyfriend, Adnan Syed. On February 9, 1999, Hae's body was found partially buried in a shallow grave in Leakin Park, in Baltimore City, Maryland. Three days later, on February 12, an anonymous tip led police to put Adnan Syed at the top of their suspect list. On February 27, 1999, Jay Wilds, an acquaintance of Syed, was interviewed by police and, early on the morning of February 28, 1999, led police to Hae's missing vehicle. Syed was convicted and sentenced to Life, plus 30 years in 2000. The case has been the topic of multiple podcasts over the years and in 2022, his conviction was vacated by a pro-defendant judge in a fixed hearing at which no one represented the interests of Hae Min Lee, or her family. On August 30, 2024, the Supreme Court of Maryland affirmed the Appellate Court of Maryland's reinstatement of Syed's conviction and held that Hae's brother, Young Lee, had the right to be heard at any future hearing seeking to vacate Syed's conviction.

The New York judges heard Trump's appeal on September 26, 2024 and I wouldn't be surprised at all if this whole thing gets overturned. It seems to me the NY Attorney General, Leticia James overstepped her authority in a VERY GRAY area and is likely going to pay a huge political price.

Justice David W. Ellis has served on the Illinois Appellate Court for the 1st District for nearly 10 years. But readers may know him better as author David Ellis, writer of more than a dozen legal thrillers. Ellis had enjoyed creative writing as a youth, he tells the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles in this episode of The Modern Law Library. But during his college and law school years, he was focused solely on his legal career path. It wasn't until he had been in practice for a few years that this changed. During a vacation at the beach, he suddenly decided that he was going to write a novel—and once that goal was set, he worked relentlessly towards it. And in 2002, he won a prestigious Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America for that first novel, Line of Vision.  Both branches of Ellis's career have seen tremendous returns. He made national news in 2009 as the prosecutor of the impeachment of Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich before the state senate. He was the youngest-serving justice in 2014 when he joined the Illinois Appellate Court for the 1st District, which serves Chicago and Cook County. And along the way, he published 11 novels, including the four-book Jason Kolarich series. He was a finalist for the ABA Journal-sponsored Harper Lee Prize for Legal Fiction in 2012 and 2013. He has also co-written nine books with James Patterson, the latest of which (Lies He Told Me) will be released in September. In this episode, Ellis and Rawles discuss his July release, The Best Lies. The germ of an idea that became The Best Lies started off with the notion of a main character who was a diagnosed pathological liar. When the book opens, Leo Balanoff, a criminal defense attorney in Chicago, has just been arrested for murder. Police have collected DNA and fingerprints at the scene that are a match for a college-era bar fight Leo was charged for, and the victim had an ugly history with one of Leo's clients. Over the course of The Best Lies, twists and turns across multiple timelines and through multiple points of view begin to reveal what really happened. Ellis weaves a tale combining corporate espionage, violin concertos, police corruption and the Estonian mob.  Ellis also discusses his writing process, his 3:30 a.m. wake-up time, the similarities in his creative and legal writing, and how his judicial ethics concerns sometimes impact his editorial decisions.

588. Part 2 of our interview of Amanda Jones, library defender. Amanda served as an educator in Louisiana for over twenty years. Jones had long been a vocal opponent to book censorship, arguing that book challenges have disproportionally targeted books with LGBTQ or BIPOC themes, characters, or authors. In July 2022, Jones spoke publicly against book censorship at a Livingston Parish Public Library Board meeting. After the meeting, multiple conservative organizations posted about Jones on their websites and social media pages. In 2022, Jones helped to create Louisiana Citizens Against Censorship, an organization in which she is executive director, as well as the Livingston Parish Library Alliance. Jones has lobbied against censorship legislation in Louisiana, specifically Louisiana Senate Bill 7 in 2023, to limit access to minors of material with "sexual conduct", and House Bills 414 and 545 in 2024, which would apply state obscenity law to libraries. The former was signed into law in June 2023. Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy. The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase.

We will be starting with the first arson in a series he was linked to in court with a fire at the home of a fellow city employee. We're bringing you a deep dive into a case I've been researching for over 6 months and currently this case is pending appeal in Maryland.

I understand and respect his decision.  18:12 - 20:27 - Discussion about narrative storytelling and using emotions to drive the narrative and a reminder that these perspectives used for storytelling are not intended to imply guilt or innocence of the defendant.

Donald Trump is obsessed with TV ratings and crowd sizes, and that may explain why he's been silent about the number of people that have watched his RNC convention this week. Ratings for the convention were down by more than 20% compared to the 2016 convention, and things didn't get better throughout the entire week, even though it was Trump's first public appearance since the shooting at his rally on Saturday.Also, during a podcast appearance this week, Marjorie Taylor Greene went full blown psycho and claimed that Democrats would be "murdering us in the streets" if someone tried to shoot President Biden. Greene is creating fake scenarios in her head and using those to encourage her base to become violent against those of us on the Left, and she knows exactly what she's doing.And a British journalist managed to set Kari Lake off during the Republican convention this week by doing nothing more than asking for evidence to back up Lake's claims that US elections are being rigged. Not only could Lake NOT provide evidence, but she then began to viciously attack the journalist for being part of the "fake news" and then blamed her for nearly everything that is wrong in America. Finally, special prosecutor Jack Smith has officially filed an appeal of Judge Aileen Cannon's dismissal of the charges against Donald Trump in the documents case, setting up a showdown at the Appellate Court. Smith, according to legal experts, has all the facts and evidence on his side to prove that his appointment was valid and legal, and Trump's lawyers have nothing more than some suggestions from their friends (which Cannon relied on to make her decision.) This is going to be brutal for Cannon.Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en

Episode 24 - Riverside vs Symons Ambulance On this episode, your host Chris Tubbs interviews Fire Chief & CalChiefs President Mark Heine, and CalChiefs Attorney Andrew Schouten, ESQ of Wright L'Estrange & Ergastolo (WLE).  We will be discussing the recent publication of the Riverside vs Symons case; the history of the litigation and various court decisions, and ultimately the publication of the Appellate Court's Ruling and what that means.

John Sylvester was the counsel of record in the controversial Abdelqader v. Abraham published opinion. In the previous episode we discussed why it was controversial. (Short version: because the Court of Appeal, sub silentio, thumbed its nose at the Supreme Court and concluded that a missing finding required by statute gives you a an automatic get-a-new-trial-free card.) In this second part of our discussion, we discuss analogous situations with the Racial Justice Act, and in the example of family law financial disclosures—where in a closely analogous situation the Court of Appeal held exactly the opposite of Abdelqader.John explains what attorneys are supposed to do with two conflicting authorities—with one of them being the Supreme Court. Hint: you have both arguments available to you, but as an attorney, unlike the Court of Appeal, when the Supreme Court has rejected your argument you have to say so.John Sylvester's biography and LinkedIn profile.Appellate Specialist Jeff Lewis' biography, LinkedIn profile, and Twitter feed.Appellate Specialist Tim Kowal's biography, LinkedIn profile, Twitter feed, and YouTube page.Sign up for Not To Be Published, Tim Kowal's weekly legal update, or view his blog of recent cases.The California Appellate Law Podcast thanks Casetext for sponsoring the podcast.

John Sylvester was the counsel of record in the controversial Abdelqader v. Abraham published opinion. Why was it controversial? Because the Court of Appeal thumbed its nose at the Supreme Court, which had held in F.P. v. Monier that just because the trial judge forgets to make a required written finding you don't get an automatic get-a-new-trial-free card. Abdelqader held that, in custody matters, you do get an automatic get-a-new-trial-free card.In this first part of our discussion, John lays out the all-important statement of decision process, and the constitutional mandate that led the Supreme Court to hold that a defective statement of decision doesn't give you an automatic get-a-new-trial-free card.That sets up part two of our discussion in the next episode in which we discuss analogous situations with the Racial Justice Act, and in the example of family law financial disclosures—where in a closely analogous situation the Court of Appeal held exactly the opposite of Abdelqader.

The show is over - for now. A #Manhattan jury presiding under a Biden-donor Judge in a case prosecuted by a #Soros-funded AG office convicted Donald #Trump of 34 charges in connection with hush money given to Stormy Daniels -- mostly based on testimony by known liar (proven by his former lawyer) Michael Cohen. Dr. Jerome Corsi breaks down what happened, what comes next, how the entire case was stacked against Trump from the start and whether there will be an Appellate Court judge brave enough to hear the Republican Party presumptive nominee for President's appeal fairly.Interestingly, the Democrats in their zealotry may have handed the 2024 election to Donald Trump as they fully exposed themselves. Dr. Corsi also explores:#Biden calls VP Kamala Harris a #DEI hire in public - in front of a crowdBiden's new foreign policy misadventure: Allowing #Ukraine to fire western-provided missiles into #Russia#Boston's Millennial Mayor announces decriminalization plan to soon ruin her cityIf you like what we are doing, please support our Sponsors:Get RX Meds Now: https://www.getrxmedsnow.comMyVitalC https://www.thetruthcentral.com/myvitalc-ess60-in-organic-olive-oil/Swiss America: https://www.swissamerica.com/offer/CorsiRMP.phpGet Dr. Corsi's new book, The Assassination of President John F.

The brutal murders of Ross, Brown, and Degnan shocked the city of Chicago and terrified and outraged the city's residents, who wanted only to feel safe once again. Under intense pressure from the press, the public, and city officials, investigators were desperate to catch the killer and solve the case by any means necessary, even if they had to break more than a few rules and ignore some inconvenient facts in order to do it.Thank you to the incredible Dave white of Bring Me the Axe & 99 Cent Rental Podcast for research!ReferencesAmended Petition for Executive Clemency. 2002.

Judicial clerkships can provide unparalleled access and prestige to young lawyers just entering practice. But because the judiciary requires confidentiality and secrecy to operate properly, often law students don't know what to expect. The Legal Accountability Project is working to change that by making the system more transparent for law schools and law students. In this episode, Todd Smith and Jody Sanders explore the Legal Accountability Project's goals in a discussion with LAP founder Aliza Shatzman and board member Appellate Court of Maryland Judge Doug Nazarian. They discuss their new initiative for judges, the Legal Accountability Project Pledge, which they are using to help create a more transparent, diverse, and rewarding clerkship system. They also talk about the rollout of LAP's clerkship database of surveys from clerks on the various judges. Finally, Judge Nazarian shares his experience working in Maryland appellate courts.Love the show?

There are 30,000 law clerks in the U.S., and we have no good way to know to judge their experiences. So Judge Douglas Nazarian of the Appellate Court of Maryland—and board member of the Legal Accountability Project—asks judges everywhere to take the LAP Pledge. The Project hosts a growing database of survey responses from judicial clerks, but it needs judges to pledge that they will invite their clerks to fill out the surveys.Uncomfortable taking the pledge publicly? No problem: please invite your clerks to do the survey anyway.Why should you support the Legal Accountability Project? Judge Nazarian explains:The laudable work of gathering data to facilitate quality clerkships is nothing new. Law schools do it. But that means the data is fragmented and incomplete. The LAP centralizes it.The data is credible. Only confirmed clerks can submit surveys.The data is confidential. Only clerkship applicants can access it.Still, many clerks may feel insecure about submitting a survey without their judges' endorsement.If you are a judge, please sign the pledge, and encourage your feeder law schools to support the Legal Accountability Project's work.If you are a clerk or a former, submit a survey.If you are an attorney, tell your alma mater that, next time you sign a check, you'd like to know if they support the Legal Accountability Project.Judge Douglas R.

The only issue left in the Trump Ballot case is whether the decision will be 9-0 or 8-1. But regardless, the Court was in agreement that political mayhem will ensue if each state were allowed to cast off a presidential candidate. I sense an insurance commercial here somewhere. But one thing is certain – politics tends to follow the circling of the drain approach. Once one state is allowed to throw out the opposing political party's leading candidate, the others will follow as our presidential elections just continue to circle the drain. Special Counsel Robert Hur found that although there was evidence that Vice President Joe Biden disclosed classified documents illegally, he did not recommend charges as no jury would convict an elderly senile dementia patient. What?!? And finally, the 49'ers square off against the Swifties in the Super Bowl this Sunday. While Chris and Joel both have their childhood teams playing in this game, they apply reason and logic in debating the important issues. For example, will Travis Kelce be distracted if his mom is left out of a million-dollar suite while his girlfriend has an entire entourage in her suite? But Joel predits why and how both teams can win.

Former Trump Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf discusses Mayorkas impeachment vote, border crisis, and Senate Republicans missteps with the negotiations of recently proposed Border deal. Wolf says the Senate border security bill has too many concerning provisions to be passed as is. “I think the conclusion is pretty clear that this is not a bill for the American people and that's why I'm not in support of it,” says Wolf. Additional interview with National Border Patrol Union Vice President Art Del Cueto on why his organization is in support of the Senate's proposed border bill, stating that it can at least bring “some kind of normalcy to the mess that was created under [the Biden] administration.” “Is it the perfect bill? No, I don't think we're going to get the perfect bill.” And AMAC Spokesman Bobby Charles on recent Appellate Court ruling on Trump Presidential Immunity Case.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The quest for a new trial for Alex Murdaugh, the South Carolina attorney mired in murder and financial crimes, has taken a controversial turn following a recent hearing. Tony Brueski, host of the "Hidden Killers" podcast, sat down with former felony prosecutor and attorney Eric Faddis to dissect the unfolding drama surrounding Murdaugh and the allegations of jury tampering by Becky Hill, the former clerk of court. Despite a juror's testimony affirming Hill's influence on their guilty verdict, the judge ruled against granting Murdaugh a new trial, sparking heated debate and raising significant legal questions. At the heart of the discussion lies Justice Gene Toll's stringent burden of proof, which mandates that Murdaugh's defense prove not only that Hill tampered with the jury but that her actions were done with the intent to prejudice the trial's outcome. Faddis expressed his dismay at the decision, pointing out the seemingly clear-cut evidence presented by the defense. "It seemed like Alex Murdaugh and his team had established what they needed to legally to get the new trial," Faddis remarked. However, the judge's ruling painted a different picture, suggesting that the legal bar for overturning a verdict remains exceedingly high. The crux of the matter appears to revolve around a juror's affidavit, which admitted to being influenced by fellow jurors rather than Hill's alleged improprieties. This revelation led the judge to conclude that peer pressure during deliberations, not Hill's actions, swayed the juror's decision. This interpretation has left many, including Faddis, questioning the judge's rationale and the implications for the integrity of the trial. Throughout the hearing, limitations were placed on the scope of evidence permissible for review, notably excluding Hill's other alleged misdeeds. This restrictive approach has fueled further speculation about the judge's motives and the potential impact on Murdaugh's appeal. "The judge kept this hearing very limited," Faddis noted, highlighting the challenge this poses for Murdaugh's defense in painting a comprehensive picture of Hill's influence. With the denial of a new trial, attention now turns to the appellate process, where Murdaugh's defense is expected to challenge the judge's decision. The appellate court will review the lower court's ruling, potentially setting the stage for further legal battles. Faddis remains optimistic about Murdaugh's chances on appeal, citing the compelling nature of the juror's testimony as a basis for reconsideration. The case underscores the complexities and human elements inherent in the legal system. With a juror's life-changing testimony at the center of the controversy, the Murdaugh saga exemplifies the challenges of discerning truth and intent in high-stakes legal battles. As Faddis and Brueski ponder the future of the case, one question looms large: Will the appellate judiciary afford Murdaugh the retrial his team fervently seeks? As the Murdaugh saga continues to unfold, the legal community and public alike watch with bated breath, awaiting the next chapter in a case that challenges the very foundations of justice and fairness in the American legal system. Will the appellate courts rectify what some see as a miscarriage of justice, or will Murdaugh's conviction stand as a testament to the impermeable nature of legal verdicts, regardless of the controversies that surround them?

While the Appellate Court did uphold Judge Chutkan's gag order against Trump, Julie Kelly says they stripped away major sections. The three judge panel ruled that Jack Smith was a public servant and a public figure and along with the DOJ and the Judge, are subjected to public criticism of their work. But this J6 trial is on hold until the issue of Presidential immunity is resolved. Kelly says the 5-4 Supreme Court decision against Texas speaks to the frustration of Conservatives, that we can't depend on the Supreme Court. This goes back to their failure to address any of the election lawsuits filed in 2020 or 2021.Tom Homan, former Trump Director of ICE, asks when we get 300 people on the terrorist watch list at our southern border, when we have 112,000 dead Americans from fentanyl, when there are 1,700 dead migrants on U.S. soil, when we have a 600% increase in child and female sex trafficking across the border, when is its time to shut it down? Homan says the Mexican Drug Cartels have operational control of our southern border. They decide what comes in, who comes in, and when it comes in. The criminal cartels have this operational control because the Biden Administration gave it to them. And he says no one celebrated the 2020 election more than the Mexican Drug Cartels based on Joe Biden's campaign promises. They knew they were back in business. Biden has not held China accountable for the precursors they send to Mexico to make fentanyl. Homan says Trump will hold both China and Mexico accountable. This administration has done nothing to slow down the flow of fentanyl. Last month, Homan says every single uniformed officer in several sectors were pulled off the line to process border crossers. You don't think the Cartels had a field day with that? If they don't impeach Mayorkas, Homan says something's very wrong.

Jack Smith's election interference case that was scheduled for March 4th has been dropped off the March calendar. This is because they are still waiting for for a decision from the Appellate Court regarding Donald Trump's claim of absolute immunity.

Kelly says we really need the Supreme Court to reverse how the DOJ has been using 1512, obstruction of an official proceeding. They need to reverse those rulings and give the DOJ and federal judges a well-deserved and overdue smackdown for the weaponization of the evidence tampering law that turned peaceful protestors into convicted lifetime felons. Kelly says we need the Supreme Court to show courage on this J6 matter, on the Colorado ballot issue before them next month, and on Presidential immunity from criminal prosecution. This will be a landmark decision just like Obama appointed Judge Chutkan's argument that a President's acts in office can be subject to criminal prosecution, another first.

Judge Chutkan issued a 48-page memo denying Trump's motion to dismiss the January 6th prosecution based on his claims of presidential immunity, finding that Trump does not get a "get-out-of-jail-free" pass simply because he was the President.Trump's defense filed a new appeal to New York's highest court challenging Judge Engoron's gag order over the Former President and his team. Appealing from an adverse ruling at the Appellate Court, Trump's team continues to argue that Trump is entitled to the protections afforded under the First Amendment when commenting on the New York Court proceedings against him.The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals authorized civil lawsuits against Trump to proceed with further litigation. Finding in favor of the plaintiffs suing Trump, the Court found that Trump's actions on the 6th might have been unofficial and outside the scope of Presidential duties, thereby removing him from the protections of Presidential Immunity.

A three-judge appellate court panel heard arguments regarding the constitutionality of the gag order Judge Tanya Chutkan placed on Donald Trump in an attempt to prevent him from endangering witnesses, court staff, prosecutors and their family members. In a very spirited 2.5-hour argument, the judges had pointed questions for both the prosecution and the defense. Glenn reviews the appellate court's arguments from the perspective of someone who was inside the courtroom watching it live as it happened.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts and mission, you can becoming a Team Justice patron at:https://www.patreon.com/glennkirschnerFor our Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at glennkirschner.comFollow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, the media in America are more than corrupt and pathetic, they take the attention of the nation off things that matter. The best example is a young Youtuber who was beaten and killed in Iran for not wearing a hijab. Then her mother hung herself after seeing her daughter's body. If you watch the mainstream media, they pay no attention to this. This is happening while Putin is killing and torturing Ukrainians and threatening America with nukes. How come the Squad doesn't talk about the Palestinian tortured and killed after she was outed as gay? Instead, the media and Democrats tell us Herschel Walker is a threat to country. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell and his stooges like Sen. Lisa Murkowski must be defeated because all he does is destroy the conservative candidates that get in his way such as his latest attack on Alaska's Kelly Tshibaka. Meanwhile, election interference from fraudulently changing laws by circumventing the US Constitution and the State's Constitution suffered a blow when the US Supreme Court vacated an Appellate Court decision to allow undated mail-in ballots to be counted. Barring any future decisions, SCOTUS rejected the undated ballots from being accepted in future elections.  The Democrats are a criminal's best friend. Looking at what they've done with our streets, with our border, and our government. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas lies about the border security of this country in order to do the dirty work of Biden's Officials Susan Rice, and Ron Klain. They didn't hesitate to conjure up a narrative about racism back when border agents were charged with whipping Haitian immigrants, but the photographer (an eyewitness) has revealed that Mayorkas knew the photos were being taken out of context hours before making his initial statements and spreading Biden's big lie anyway. Democrats are using their unconstitutional January 6th Committee to subpoena the former President just three weeks from the midterm elections. Meanwhile, the DOJ has leaked to the Washington Post that somehow moving documents from one part of Mar-A-Lago to another part of the residence is some sort of smoking gun. The January 6 hearings are merely a smoke screen because gasoline is up 58% from a year ago, inflation is still at 8%, while food costs are more than double that (15.57% since Biden took office).
