California Attorney General Rob Bonta has filed a spate of lawsuits against the Trump administration, including challenges to mass terminations of federal employees, the sharing of Medicaid data with immigration authorities and the federal government's takeover of the California National Guard. His office is also involved in lawsuits related to public health funding cuts and stalled clean energy projects. We'll talk to the state's top prosecutor about what's at stake in the cases and what it's been like to fight a president he says has an “endless desire to seize more power.” Guests: Rob Bonta, California Attorney General Learn more about your ad choices.

President Trump publicly released tariff letters to around a dozen countries—including Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and Indonesia—warning they'll face import taxes of at least 25% starting August 1 unless they finalize new trade deals. Meanwhile, a California National Guard deployment to an empty park in LA drew backlash as a political stunt, while Customs and Border Protection issued a call for advanced surveillance tech to analyze seized digital devices. Cybersecurity experts raised alarms over Scattered Spider, a hacker group targeting U.S. infrastructure using phishing and impersonation tactics. The DOJ and FBI released a memo denying any Epstein “client list” or foul play in his prison death—despite past contradictions—including new (but suspect) footage. Physician groups are suing HHS Secretary RFK Jr. over new federal COVID vaccine recommendations, and the Trump administration says a U.S.-friendly version of TikTok is on track to launch September 5 as part of a deal to avoid a full ban.

Street protests erupted, and the National Guard was forcibly federalized. Meanwhile, in the Middle East, President Trump ordered airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities, pushing the region to the brink of war, only to broker a swift ceasefire within days.

While Los Angeles was descending into chaos on June 7th over ICE raids, Gavin Newsom was in Napa Valley at an exclusive wine sipping event. Kamala Harris is reportedly “seriously” considering running for governor of California. California once proposed amending the Constitution to create a “world federal government.” Newsom loses again to President Trump in court over his use of the California National Guard.

Andrew and Mary start this week's episode here, discussing the scope of presidential war powers and the norms of international law following the strikes.

And after a nod to the Supreme Court's decision on removing immigrants to countries other than their own, Mary and Andrew touch on the 9th Circuit decision allowing Trump to retain control of the California National Guard, and what happens next.Further reading: Here is the compliant from the Justice Department whistleblower (courtesy New York Times): Protected Whistleblower Disclosure of Erez Reuveni Regarding Violation of Laws, Rules & Regulations, Abuse of Authority, and Substantial and Specific Danger to Health and Safety at the Department of Justice and here is more on the dissent from the Supreme Court's recent decision: Supreme Court allows Trump to swiftly deport certain immigrants to 'third countries'Want to listen to this show without ads?

The most liberal court of appeals in the United States, the 9th Circuit, late last night ruled that it is the great and powerful President Donald J. Trump who is Commander in Chief of the federalized California National Guard, and not the feckless and pandering Governor Gavin Newsom.This ruling overturns an insane temporary restraining order issued last week by the unelected, black-robed, tyrannical inferior federal district trial court Judge Charles Breyer. That 83-year-old San Francisco judge—who we're supposed to believe wrote out a detailed 33-page TRO against Trump in less than three hours—broke a metaphorical hip in fabricating a rationale for why command of the National Guard should revert to Newsom, at the mere cost of the lives of federal immigration elements and the arson of federal buildings. Fortunately, saner minds have prevailed. But what happens next? Will Newsom and Judge Breyer accept defeat, or will the continue the theatrical and performative obstruction of our Article II Executive Branch President as he seeks to protect American lives and property from the ravages of tens of millions of illegal migrant third-world invaders and their domestic collaborators rebelling against the authority of our national government and sovereignty.

The Trump administration has imposed new sanctions on Iran, targeting the regime's weapons programs. This comes as Israel and Iran continue to exchange deadly strikes, now a week into their conflict. A European delegation is holding talks with an Iranian official today, but President Donald Trump says Iran is actually seeking to engage with the United States, not Europe.A federal judge today ordered the release of pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil from immigration detention. The Trump administration has sought to deport him over his role in protests at Columbia University. He was detained on March 8.Meanwhile, a court has upheld Trump's use of the California National Guard in response to the riots in Los Angeles. As part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to crack down on illegal immigration, Vice President J.D. Vance is in Los Angeles today meeting with Marines and federal officers.
On June 7, President Trump asserted control over California's National Guard.

the Commander-in-Chief battle between the feckless pandering California Governor Gavin Newsom and the Article II Executive Branch President Trump fought its way into the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, with each side presenting oral arguments to a three-judge appellate panel.Panel:Judge Mark Bennett--Trump 2018 (older gentleman)Judge Eric Miller--Trump 2019Judge Jennifer Sung--Biden 2021At issue: Who is the legal Commander-in-Chief of the California National Guard troops deployed in riot-torn Los Angeles? The Governor allowing the nation's second-largest city to be subject to relentless riot, looting, and arson as protestors rebel against enforcement of the nation's immigration laws? Or the President of the United States intent on preserving Federal personnel and property from the predations of those same rebels?This morning I spent a couple of hours laying out the relevant legal questions, as well as exposing the intellectually dishonest and patently political issuance of a temporary restraining order against Trump by 83-year-old San Francisco unelected, black-robed, tyrannical inferior federal district trial court Judge Charles Breyer.The White House immediately appealed that gas-lighting TRO to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, which heard oral argument yesterday, and I'll be sharing and breaking down the video of that oral argument in this show.

AUDIO EXCLUSIVE [this interview took place June 13, 2025]Back in 2024, the Los Angeles City Council passed a “sanctuary city” ordinance and said the city would not collaborate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE. “They are lying,” says Hamid Khan, an expert on the surveillance state and organizer with the Stop LAPD Spying Coalition. In this timely interview, Khan unpacks “fusion centers” where agencies like DHS, the FBI and local law enforcement work together to gather and share data on citizens — regardless of their criminal record. Long before Trump's crackdown on immigration rights and the protests in Los Angeles, LAPD would have ICE in their headquarters, he shares. Join Khan and Flanders as they discuss shocking truths about police spying and surveillance, and why we must become aware and take action.Guest: Hamid Khan: Organizer, Stop LAPD Spying Coalition, Board of Directors, Los Angeles Community Action Network (LA CAN) RESOURCES:Related Episodes:• Hamid Khan: The Surveillance-Industrial Complex WATCH• What's A Sanctuary with Jails? - Hamid Khan and Jennicet Gutiérrez (Community Organizer Familia Trans Queer Liberation Movement) WATCHRelated Articles:• ‘This isn't an isolated incident': Trump's show of military force in LA was years in the making, by Rachel Leingang and Lauren Gambino, June 11, 2025, The Guardian• Troops and marines deeply troubled by LA deployment: ‘Morale is not great' by Andrew Gumbel, June 12, 2025, The Guardian• Trump can keep California National Guard deployed for now, appeals court says, by Caroline O'Donovan, Karin Brulliard, Mark German and Kelsey Ables, June 14, 2025, The Washington Post• Appeals court questions judges' ability to review Trump's Los Angeles group deployment, by Dietrich Knauth and Daniel Wiessner, June 17, 2025, Reuters• Immigration raids in Los Angeles hit small business owners: ‘It's worse than COVID', by Tim Reid and Kristina Cooke, June 17, 2025, Reuters Laura Flanders and Friends Crew: Laura Flanders, along with Sabrina Artel, Jeremiah Cothren, Veronica Delgado, Janet Hernandez, Jeannie Hopper, Gina Kim, Sarah Miller, Nat Needham, David Neuman, and Rory O'Conner.

Political violence is never OK. So after the horrible news out of Minnesota, Mary and Andrew begin with a breakdown of the federal charges against the man accused of murdering a Minnesota state lawmaker and her husband and attempting to murder several others.Next, they move to an explainer of an appeals court ruling that temporarily blocked a lower court decision ordering the control of the California National Guard back to the state, while tying in the scuffle during Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's press conference last week as Senator Alex Padilla was forcibly removed and handcuffed. And rounding out this episode, Andrew and Mary note Trump's failed attempt to appeal the $5 million judgement in the E Jean Carroll case, and the arguments heard last week on his attempt to remove his NY state hush money case to a federal court.Want to listen to this show without ads?

In a sweeping ruling and stern condemnation of Trump's violation of both the federal law AND the Constitution, a federal judge in California ruled that Trump must relinquish control of the California National Guard and return control to California Governor Gavin Newsom. However, the appeals court has issued a brief stay/pause on the ruling.In ruling against Trump, Judge Charles Breyer wrote: "At this early stage of the proceedings, the Court must determine whether the President followed the congressionally mandated procedure for his actions. He did not. His actions were illegal both exceeding the scope of his statutory authority and violating the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. He must therefore return control of the California National Guard to the Governor of the State of California forthwith." Glenn reviews Judge Breyer's ruling and his clever use of the Latin Tern "ipse dixit".If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
The White House activation of the California National Guard to protect Federal property and personnel in riot-torn Los Angeles has been challenged by the feckless pandering Governor Gavin Newsom. Newsom was able to secure a Temporary Restraining Order against Trump for a few brief hours last Thursday, with an unelected, black-robed tyrannical inferior federal district trial court judge out of San Francisco stripping the Article II Executive Branch president of his Commander in Chief authority over America's military and handing control back to Newsom.The White House immediately secured a pause on that order from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, however, and yesterday that three-judge panel heard oral arguments on Newsom v. Trump for command authority over the deployed National Guard. In today's show we'll first review the absolutely inane and politically-driven TRO from the San Francisco unelected, black-robed, tyrannical, inferior federal district trial court judge—so we know exactly how we got here--and then break down the video of yesterday's 9th Circuit oral argument.

Will a 9th Circuit appeals court put Governor Newsom back in charge of the California National Guard and refuse to accept the ruse of a Trump-declared “rebellion,” or will they rule for Trump and keep him in charge for many more months while they ponder the appeal. Michael Popok reports on today's oral argument and posits that they will likely find that they have jurisdiction to provide oversight over Trump's actions, but want the lower court to develop a more fulsome record before making an ultimate ruling, starting with a hearing in court on Friday before Judge Breyer.

Donald Trump created chaos in California to try to give himself a plausible reason to send troops to California. The problem is, his activation and federalization of the California National Guard violates federal law, as Glenn discusses.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Donald Trump overrode Governor Gavin Newsom to federalize the California National Guard to police the streets of Los Angeles. Protests over ICE’s deportation tactics are growing, prompting the Trump administration to leverage extreme authority over the protests, with Pentagon head Pete Hegseth warning that he will call in the Marines if necessary. All of this calls into question the limits of presidential authority in domestic civil disturbances and whether Posse Comitatus is still the law of the land. While it’s still on the books, it has been effectively gutted over the past 30 years by multiple administrations through procedural changes to the U.S. Code that have gone largely unnoticed.

This week, demonstrators took to the streets of Los Angeles to protest ICE raids being carried out in the area. President Trump responded to the unrest by deploying California National Guard troops and active-duty Marines, an action that sparked a legal and personal feud between the President and California Governor Gavin Newsom. FOX News Radio Correspondent Krystin Goodwin shares her reporting from Los Angeles and discusses the political clash between the Trump administration and California's state and local leaders. Later, Congressman Michael McCaul (R-TX) discusses Kilmar Abrego Garcia's indictment and explains why he believes President Trump's approach to immigration was necessary following the lenient policies of the Biden administration.

In breaking news, Federal Judge Charles Breyer — finding the Trump Administration violated federal statutes dating to 1903 and the 10th Amendment of the Constitution — has ordered that Trump immediately return command and control over the California National Guard to Governor Newsom. Michael Popok examines the 36 page order issued moments ago and explains why the Court found that Trump's actions were “illegal” and his position that first amendment expression is the same as a “rebellion” chilling, and why the order was stayed for a half a day to permit an appeal.

COUNTDOWN BULLETIN: SEASON 3 EPISODE 137 Attempting to question Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem at her Propaganda Conference in Los Angeles today about the Trump Junta's illegal usurpation of the California National Guard and its illegal deployment of active military into civilian police enforcement, California Senator Alex Padilla was jumped by a series of Trumpist thugs including uniformed members of the FBI who wrestled him to the ground, threatened him, and handcuffed him. This is simply the latest in a string of domestic terrorist events perpetrated by Trump's government since the beginning of the ICE raids rounding up migrants, naturalized citizens, and native-born Americans alike, last Friday. It precipitated minor protests and violence slightly below the level of that seen after the Los Angeles Lakers' basketball team won its last championship in 2020. The manhandling of Padilla may have not been the most ominous development Thursday in our march towards dictatorship. Pressed at a congressional hearing about the pending case asking a judge to restrain Trump from usurping control of the California National Guard from Governor Newsom, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth refused to confirm he would abide by any ruling from the court with which he would not agree. He is attempting to cloak the insertion of active military into civilian police enforcement, and the overriding of the courts, in some fantasy that he and Trump are enacting "foreign policy" by terrorizing Southern California.

Trump and his minions have inflamed the country with escalating deportation raids. In Los Angeles, the resistance has been fiercely fighting back and keeping ICE out of their communities. Trump has taken further steps by federalizing the California National Guard to protect federal buildings and aid in ICE operations. He's also now deployed a battalion of U.S. marines. California's political leadership is pushing back as well. Scott talks with organizer Estuardo Mazariegos about what's happening in the streets of Los Angeles.

This week, Scott sat down with Lawfare Senior Editors Molly Reynolds and Quinta Jurecic, and Contributing Editor Chris Mirasola, to focus on the week's big domestic news, including:“Drama Majors, Meet Major Drama.” In the glittering city of Los Angeles, the Trump administration has taken the dramatic step of calling up the California National Guard and deploying them alongside active duty Marines to secure federal personnel and facilities, specifically against protestors demonstrating against the Trump administration's draconian immigration policies. Is this the beginning of a broader threat to the constitutional order, as some of Trump's critics say it is? And what should we make of President Trump's suggestion that he may yet invoke the controversial Insurrection Act?“Precision Rescission, What's Your Mission?” The Trump administration has asked Congress to formally rescind a slice of the federal spending it has been withholding since entering office, specifically relating to foreign assistance and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting—a request the House seems poised to move on this week. How likely is it that Congress will agree to the cut in funds? And what will the implications be for relevant legal challenges and Trump's broader agenda?“There and Back Again.” After an unexpected journey and epic delays on the part of the government, the Trump administration has finally repatriated Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador—only to charge him with human trafficking and other federal crimes in Tennessee. How serious are the charges against him? And is this likely to be a win or loss for the administration's broader immigration agenda?In object lessons, Molly shared a ranking of New York mayoral candidates by their bagel orders—and whose order is so bad, it's a schmear on their very New Yorker-ness.

Donald Trump seems to be building a kind of insurrection Ponzi scheme. He has his ICE agents create chaos by engaging in callous, mindless, counter-productive immigration sweeps, then Trump says he must call up and federalize the California National Guard to quell the chaos HE CREATED! However, it appears that Trump violated federal law, which expressly requires that such "orders . . shall be issued through the governors of the states" which Trump failed to do.Accordingly, the Attorney General for California has sued the Trump administration for its unlawful actions.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

President Donald Trump deployed California National Guard troops to Los Angeles on Sunday, following demonstrations over the weekend protesting the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. The decision was made without California Governor Gavin Newsom's approval, and the state is now suing the “illegal and immoral” move. We get into all the potential ramifications of the uptick in immigration raids. Then, we discuss how people in other countries have coped with anti-democratic forces in their own communities. Finally, we smile at the original cast of “Hamilton” reuniting for the musical's 10-year anniversary. Here's everything we talked about today: “The Beautiful Danger of Normal Life During an Autocratic Rise” from The New York Times“The 78th Annual Tony Awards® | Hamilton 10 Year Anniversary Performance” from CBS“The original cast of ‘Hamilton' reunites on the Tonys stage with rousing performance” from CNN“When to see June's full strawberry moon on Tuesday night” from The Washington PostGot a question or comment for the hosts?

Nanette Barragán (D-Calif.) joins Meet the Press NOW calls President Trump's handling of the protests “disturbing.” New York City mayoral candidate and New York state Assemblyman and New York City mayor candidate Zohran Mamdani (D) explains how he would respond to ICE raids in New York City.

Videos circulating on social media show ICE agents being assaulted with bricks and commercial-grade fireworks. Numerous vehicles—including Waymo self-driving taxis—were set on fire by violent demonstrators. As the New York Post notes, Waymo vehicles are electric and as they burn, the lithium-ion batteries are releasing toxic gases. Other videos show demonstrators burning American flags and chanting “F*** Trump.” As the protests carried on into the night, multiple businesses were looted in downtown Los Angeles, according to reports. 6:15pm- While appearing on CNN with host Dana Bash, Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) accused President Donald Trump of being an authoritarian for deploying the California National Guard to stifle violent outbreaks in Los Angeles.

While speaking to the press on the White House lawn, President Donald Trump referred to Los Angeles rioters as “insurrectionists”—noting that if he were Border Czar Tom Homan, he would consider arresting California Governor Gavin Newsom for interfering with ICE's deportation of illegal migrants. In response, Newsom has claimed Trump is “inflaming conditions” and has exceeded his authority to prevent violence, declaring: “Democracy is in the balance!” 6:40pm- In a post to X, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced: “Due to increased threats to federal law enforcement officers and federal buildings, approximately 700 active-duty U.S. Marines from Camp Pendleton are being deployed to Los Angeles to restore order. We have an obligation to defend federal law enforcement officers—even if Gavin Newsom will not.” 6:45pm- During the unrest in Los Angeles, Congresswoman Maxine Waters seemed to verbally harass National Guard members—yelling at them: “You going to shoot an elected official? If you shoot me, you better shoot straight. I don't know why you're in my city.”

Trump denied that the Musk-Bessent argument ever turned physical—and surprisingly seemed open to a phone call with Musk after last week's public feud. 4:05pm- Rich recaps his appearance on Fox News Saturday Night with Jimmy Failla, we listen to terrible generic return music—though, it's likely better than what Matt would have selected, and TMZ has released a new documentary suggesting there may have been a fifth plane on September 11th. 4:10pm- While speaking with MSNBC, Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) defiantly stated: “Tom [Homan], arrest me! Let's go!” The Trump Administration has openly contemplated arresting Newsom for interfering with ICE's deportation efforts. Rich explains that the administration should not arrest Newsom—and doesn't expect it will happen. However, if it did occur it would be an enormous gift to Newsom's presumed 2028 presidential campaign. 4:20pm- In response to a series of ICE raids intended to remove migrants residing in the United States unlawfully, protests broke out in Los Angeles, California—sometimes turning violent and destructive.
