The directive sent from acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove to drop the corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams has hit a fever pitch, so hosts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord use the bulk of this episode to break down this evolving story and what has come to light so far. They tick through how this standoff between federal prosecutors and the DOJ's directive has led to a slew of resignations, and what to watch for as Judge Dale Ho calls for a Wednesday hearing on the matter in Manhattan.  Andrew and Mary then take a beat to preview the first Supreme Court test of Trump's executive power, over his attempt to fire Hampton Dellinger, the head of the Office of Special Counsel, without cause. (Note: this office is an independent watchdog agency- not part of DOJ). And they wind up this episode by highlighting allegations from whistleblowers that Kash Patel, Trump's nominee to head the FBI, has been directing the firing of senior officials at the FBI.Further reading: Here is Andrew's piece in Just Security: The People of New York v.

Our show opens with an unhinged Leftist judge, Paul Engelmayer, granting a Temporary Protection Order against Elon Musk and all of Donald Trump's appointees from being able to access data within the Treasury system. Thanks to help from attorney Tom Renz, we examine how ludicrous and unconstitutional this example of lawfare is. Asst. Chief of Staff Stephen Miller summarized this in a 90 second sound bite over the weekend. And, while the Left is pretending to support this, we know they don't believe is following the judicial branch as evidenced when Joe Biden ignored the SCOTUS to payoff student debt. While this was happening, over the weekend, President Trump removed more clearances from people, including Joe Bide. Interestingly enough, on that list was AG Letitia James and DA Alvin Bragg. Now, why did they need a government clearance? The NYT had two of their Tik-Tok'ers try to explain why what Elon Musk is doing in the government is the same as he did with Twitter. However, they intentionally leave out information and confuse “revenue” with “profit.” On the Sunday shows, the Left continued to show us they are comfortable dying on the hill of hiding the fraud, waste and abuse and attacking Elon Musk. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem wasn't going to accept the Left's premise when dealing with Dana Bash on CBS. We then remind you that in October of 2024, when allegations arose that FEMA was out of disaster support funds because they were sending it all to pay for illegal migrants, then WH Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre called that a lie. Over the weekend we learned FEMA pushed out a $59 million dollar payment to cover migrant housing costs in New York City. Then, we learn that Congress has spent over $500 billion in expired programs just last year without any authorization. And, we learned another laundering scheme for how the Left has been buying favorable news coverage. Rather then sending payments directly, they were just buying hundreds of thousands of subscriptions. Finally, as we close off the show, we discover a quote from Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) from just 15 years ago. At that time she said if money disappears in the government it likely means someone broke the law and it needed to be exposed. Funny how her tune has changed. Please take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

While this podcast's name has changed, this week's episode revolves around all things prosecuting Donald Trump. After a detailed review of Judge Juan Merchan's reasoning and limitations for sentencing the president-elect after his New York criminal conviction, veteran prosecutors Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord wind through the barrage of motions in Florida to block the release of both volumes of Special Counsel Jack Smith's final report. After underscoring why Volume Two-- concerning the now dismissed classified documents case-- is still under wraps, they dig into the finer points of Volume One, released to the public at 1:00 a.m. Tuesday morning. This first volume lays out the facts and the law as it relates to Trump's DC election interference case which has also been dismissed, though Smith writes, "but for Mr. Trump's election and imminent return to the Presidency, the Office assessed that the admissible evidence was sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction at trial."Further reading: Here is Volume One of Jack Smith's final report.Want to listen to this show without ads?

In a Manhattan courtroom on Friday January 10th 2025, president-elect Donald Trump was sentenced in his New York hush money case after being convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records. The Judge in the case, Juan Merchan, elected to unconditionally discharge Trump, meaning he'll receive no further penalties. Once sworn in on January 20th, Trump will be first convicted felon to occupy the White House.

As the political landscape transforms and Donald Trump's criminal cases wind down, MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord shift focus to keep watch on the incoming president and how his Department of Justice will use the law to move his agenda forward. With this realignment comes a new name: Main Justice. In this episode, Andrew and Mary explain what Main Justice is before breaking down the barrage of incoming news, from Trump's pending New York sentencing to his attempt to stop the public release of Special Counsel Jack Smith's final report. They also give a taste of the broader scope they plan to cover, with analysis of Trump's unusual filing in the Supreme Court, urging a pause in the TikTok ban until he takes office.Also, note to listeners: since the time of our recording, a New York Appellate judge has denied a stay of Trump's sentencing. You can read that decision HERE.This podcast will still cover any lingering issues around Trump's criminal and civil cases, and you'll continue to find new episodes in the “Prosecuting Donald Trump” feed. It will now just fall under the name “Main Justice”. So if you haven't already, follow the feed to receive weekly episodes.

In this final episode of 2024, MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord are joined by Dahlia Lithwick, Slate Senior Editor and host of the Amicus podcast. Together, they take stock of the legal hills and valleys of this past year, and the role the Supreme Court played in how Donald Trump's criminal cases were litigated. They also take a beat to consider the impact of legal journalism in the year ahead and the responsibility of legacy media to continue to hold power to account.Want to listen to this show without ads?

After a quick review of the Georgia Court of Appeals decision disqualifying Fani Willis from Donald Trump's criminal case based on an appearance of impropriety, MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord are joined by NYU Law professor and Dean Emeritus, Trevor Morrison. The discussion revolves around the limits and scope of the presidential pardon power, the legal precedence of a blanket pardon for crimes not yet adjudicated, and whether a president can in fact, pardon himself. Want to listen to this show without ads?

Suspected assassin Luigi Mangione sat shackled before the New York Supreme Court, his maroon sweater, collared shirt, and orange shoes lending an almost surreal normalcy to the scene. At just 26 years old, Mangione faces accusations that would forever alter the lives of everyone involved. Charged with the December 4 murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, the case against Mangione has unraveled into a spectacle of political intrigue, social commentary, and legal complexities—a reflection of a fractured system and the unpredictable nature of public reaction. The courtroom was tense as Mangione leaned toward the microphone, chains clinking faintly against the table, to utter his plea: not guilty. It was a single moment, yet one weighted with significance. For prosecutors, it marked the formal beginning of a case they've described as “a frightening, well-planned, targeted murder”—a crime intended to terrorize. For Mangione's defense, it was a critical pivot in their strategy, one complicated by the unusual dual tracks of state and federal charges. A Crime That Shocked the Nation On a cold December morning, Brian Thompson was walking toward an investor conference in midtown Manhattan, a routine step in his high-powered career. Then came the sound of gunfire. Witnesses reported seeing a man fleeing the scene, leaving behind a chilling clue: bullet casings inscribed with the words “deny,” “defend,” and “depose.” The messages were unmistakable—a direct nod to the controversial practices of the health insurance industry. Police arrived within minutes, but the shooter had vanished into the city. Thompson's murder sent shockwaves through corporate America. His role as CEO of UnitedHealthcare made him a symbol of the very industry criticized for prioritizing profit over people. The crime scene, with its cryptic clues, hinted at a killer with a calculated message. Within hours, law enforcement agencies were working together to track down the suspect. Five days later, Mangione was arrested in a Pennsylvania McDonald's. Police found a gun matching the ballistics from the scene and a fake ID in his possession. Also seized was a notebook expressing deep hostility toward the health insurance industry, particularly its executives. Legal Maze: Dual Prosecutions Mangione now faces parallel prosecutions. In state court, the Manhattan district attorney charged him with multiple counts of murder, including murder as an act of terrorism. At a press conference announcing the charges, DA Alvin Bragg emphasized the calculated nature of the crime, calling it a “killing intended to evoke terror.” The federal charges, on the other hand, include terrorism-related offenses that could lead to the death penalty if Mangione is convicted. Legal experts have noted the rarity of such simultaneous cases, with some criticizing the potential for conflicting strategies. Karen Friedman Agnifilo, Mangione's defense attorney, has not minced words. During a federal hearing, she described the dual prosecutions as “very confusing” and “highly unusual.” The federal charges, she argued, could undermine Mangione's ability to mount a coherent defense in the state trial, which is expected to proceed first. “We're navigating uncharted waters,” she said. A Divided Public Reaction While prosecutors argue Mangione's actions were nothing short of domestic terrorism, public opinion has proven far more divided. Demonstrators gathered outside the courthouse during Mangione's arraignment, clutching signs that ranged from “Justice for Thompson” to “Free Mangione.” The latter group, a vocal minority, has cast Mangione as a vigilante hero, claiming his alleged actions were a dramatic—if extreme—response to perceived corruption in the healthcare industry. Social media has amplified this polarization. Hashtags like #MangioneTheMartyr and #HealthcareJustice have trended alongside condemnations of the crime. Some supporters have even gone so far as to fundraise for Mangione's legal defense. They point to the bullet casings and notebook as evidence of a broader political statement, rather than an act of senseless violence. Not all of Mangione's supporters are focused on his alleged motives. Some have fixated on his appearance, dubbing him the “handsome assassin.” This bizarre twist has only added to the media frenzy surrounding the case, with tabloid headlines oscillating between serious analysis and absurd fascination. The Evidence Piles Up The prosecution's case appears formidable. Ballistics tests have matched the gun found on Mangione to the weapon used in Thompson's murder. The notebook seized during his arrest contains detailed grievances against the health insurance industry, as well as chilling references to “making an example” of wealthy executives. Prosecutors argue these details demonstrate premeditation. DA Bragg has leaned heavily on the terrorism charges, framing the murder as an attack designed to intimidate a broader audience. “This wasn't just about Brian Thompson,” Bragg said. “This was about sending a message.” Yet Mangione's defense team has pushed back, questioning the integrity of the investigation. They have raised concerns about potential bias in the handling of evidence and have hinted at exploring Mangione's mental state as a factor in their defense. Agnifilo has also criticized the public framing of the case, arguing that the media's portrayal of her client has made a fair trial nearly impossible. A Broader Conversation Thompson's murder has reignited scrutiny of the health insurance industry, bringing books like Jay M. Feinman's “Delay, Deny, Defend” back into the public discourse. Feinman's work, which critiques the industry's alleged tactics of avoiding payouts, has been cited as eerily similar to the inscriptions found on the bullet casings. While there is no direct evidence linking Mangione to Feinman's book, the parallels have not gone unnoticed. The case has also prompted discussions about the role of terrorism charges in domestic crimes. Critics argue that labeling Mangione's actions as terrorism risks conflating political dissent with violent extremism. Others counter that the label is appropriate given the calculated nature of the crime and its intent to intimidate. What Comes Next? The state trial is expected to begin within months, with the federal case likely to follow. As the legal process unfolds, the public will be watching closely, not just for the outcome, but for what the case reveals about broader societal tensions. Mangione's fate may hinge on whether the jury views him as a cold-blooded killer or a misguided figure acting out of desperation. Either way, the trial promises to be a defining moment in the intersection of justice, politics, and public perception. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Paul Mauro, Fox News Contributor, attorney, and retired NYPD inspector, joined The Guy Benson Show to break down the latest developments in the UnitedHealthcare CEO murder case, including the killer's extradition to New York. Mauro explained why the case might shift from DA Alvin Bragg's jurisdiction to federal authorities and argued that the terrorism charge is both appropriate and necessary due to how NY's murder charges are filed. He also weighed in on the disqualification of Fani Willis from the Trump Georgia case, noting how it could spell the end of the case as it is now "orphaned." Listen to the full interview below!

There's been significant action in New York as Judge Juan Merchan denied one of Donald Trump's motions to dismiss his 34-count verdict- this one based on the Supreme Court's presidential immunity decision. After a noteworthy amount of speed reading several motions and responses, MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord break down Merchan's rationale, highlighting the specifics of his multi-layered legal reasoning. Then, they turn to another fully briefed pending dismissal motion, this one based on the temporary immunity a sitting president is granted for official acts while serving. Want to listen to this show without ads?

SERIES 3 EPISODE 78: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: How did this not generate more headlines? It's just a proposed maneuver out of the legal morass Judge Juan Merchan has helped Trump create. But New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg has suggested that one way to solve this sentencing/but he's president/but we can't dismiss the conviction is to treat Trump - in a legal sense - the way you treat a convicted defendant who DIES before he appeals or is sentence. In short: just pretend Trump is dead. SPEAKING OF A BROKEN LEGAL SYSTEM: I'm not advocating for that, nor for guys assassinating CEO's five blocks from my home. But our legal system is broken and it would behoove commentators, columnists, writers, those who suck up to the moneyed class, and conservatives to stop being so surprised at the idea that maybe a majority of Americans is not as outraged as the wealthy are at the actions of Luigi McDreamy. Maybe you need to wonder more about why they perceive the legal system to be broken and the corporations to be legal excuses for nobody being responsible for innocent people dying and being injured. CHRIS WRAY OBEYS IN ADVANCE: He'll quit as FBI director before the inauguration. Maybe he can make a comeback as Trump's second pick for DNI because Tulsi Gabbard is being attacked from the left, the middle, and now from The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board. Also Hegseth's been caught in another lie, about something he had said in public 48 hours earlier. B-Block (23:46) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: The World Cup goes to Saudi Arabia because everything is for sale. And an announcement of a candidacy for New York City Council suddenly made me realize that Bill DeBlasio and Eric Adams both became mayor here in part because between us one of my exes and I screwed around with the 2013 campaign. OOPS. (30:22) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Yes she sneaked a gold-plated gun into Australia but how else was she supposed to protect herself at clown school? Speaking of: Newsweek beats the L.A. Times to a "Fairness Meter" for its articles. And Elon Musk insists there's no homelessness because now is exactly the right time for a CEO to assert that. C-Block (39:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: My favorite Holiday story. The day, on my way to interview Mickey Mantle, I ran into somebody I mistook for just another fan - albeit a well-dressed man. Oops. Turned out he was one of the stars of the greatest movie ever made.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Within the 80-page motion filed last week to dismiss Donald Trump's New York criminal case, there's a long list of grievances laid out by his legal team. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord underscore some of the substantive arguments as to why a sitting president might find a pending case constricting, reasoning that there are aspects that could interfere with effective functioning of the presidency. But they also illuminate how these merits are buried deep within pages of hyperbole of alleged unfairness to the president-elect, prompting Andrew to ask, in terms of the facts, “Where's the beef?” Then they turn to some analysis of a letter written by incoming Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley, which calls out current FBI Director Christopher Wray with a personal vote of no confidence. Want to listen to this show without ads?

This week, you'll find a Premium episode from Andrew and Mary highlighting the national security apparatus and why Trump's nominees for these top posts matter.

In person together at 30 Rock, veteran prosecutors Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord use their combined expertise in FBI and Justice Department standards to lay plain how far outside the norm the incoming president is aiming, by flouting a congressionally mandated 10-year appointment of an FBI Director and naming loyalist Kash Patel to replace Christopher Wray. Then, they take a beat to reflect on President Biden's unexpected pardon of his son Hunter and remind listeners of several active January 6th civil cases brought against Donald Trump  that may provide the only litigation of his actions after the 2020 election. Also, on Monday, Trump's brief was due in New York as to why his case should be dismissed based on the immunity of a sitting president. At the time of this recording, it had not yet hit the docket, but Andrew and Mary review the stakes and Judge Merchan's denial of delaying the filing.Want to listen to this show without ads?

As the Special Counsel winds down the DC criminal case and the Florida appeal, veteran prosecutors Mary McCord and Andrew Weissmann analyze the strategy behind getting a dismissal without prejudice before Donald Trump takes office, while dispelling the notion that Jack Smith “folded” in any way. Then, they head to New York to break down the nuance of Judge Merchan's decision to postpone Trump's sentencing, as he accepts briefing on a motion to dismiss the case that both parties agreed to. And before wrapping up, Mary and Andrew review some of the presumptive nominees Trump has named for top Justice Department posts, and the contrast of working on behalf of a client versus working on behalf of the Constitution.A note to listeners: Since we recorded, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals also granted Special Counsel Jack Smith's request to dismiss that appeal without prejudice.Want to listen to this show without ads?

This week on the Mark Levin Show, Comcast is finally looking to get rid of MSNBC. Mark has warned in the past that they would pay a public price if they don't cut ties with MSNBC. The news divisions are separate on Fox News but not separate on MSNBC and CNN - you can't tell one from the other. The Washington Post is almost dying, if they didn't have Jeff Bezos, it would be dead. It's not because of technology, it's because people are sick of these media companies. DA Alvin Bragg and Judge Juan Merchan have done enormous damage to the rule of law in Donald Trump's NY case. Merchan should have dismissed the case, but he didn't. This isn't a great victory because this case still hangs over Trump's head. President Biden and Sen Chuck Schumer are trying to ram through as many lifetime appointments to the circuit and district courts as possible. Democrats want their radical agenda, which was just rejected by America, to continue through the judiciary. The first battle President-Elect Trump faces is to get the cabinet that he wants. The Democrats and their media are trying to destroy Pete Hegseth and his reputation. This is the way Democrats and the media work. They don't want Hegseth to reform the Pentagon as Secretary of Defense. Kash Patel would make a great FBI Director but anytime a Conservative is nominated they are said to be controversial. Mike Rogers for FBI Director is exactly what President-Elect Trump ran against, he's an establishment RINO. Pam Bondi for Attorney General would be great. Learn more about your ad choices.

Townhall Review - November 23, 2024 Mark Davis, filling in for Hugh Hewitt, talks with Matt Continetti, of the Washington Free Beacon, about Trump's aggressive approach to staffing his administration. Kurt Schlichter, also in for Hugh, sits down with Senator-elect Jim Banks, who praises Pete Hegseth's qualifications, calling him the reformer needed to address woke ideology in the military as Secretary of Defense. Victor Davis Hanson analyzes New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik's appointment as U.N. ambassador, emphasizing her strong pro-Israel stance. He highlights the deep corruption within the U.N., underscoring the need for bold reform. Joe Piscopo asks Andrew McCarthy to explain the collapse of many legal cases against Trump. The Manhattan case under DA Alvin Bragg remains an exception but faces growing scrutiny. Seth Leibsohn and Brandon Weichert, author of “A Disaster of Our Own Making: How the West Lost Ukraine” examine the Biden administration's decision to greenlight strikes into Russian territory. Weichert warns of rising global tensions and highlights Netanyahu's unyielding approach to Israel's existential conflict, which just crossed its 1,000th day.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, DA Alvin Bragg and Judge Juan Merchan have done enormous damage to the rule of law in Donald Trump's NY case. Merchan should have dismissed the case, but he didn't. This isn't a great victory because this case still hangs over Trump's head. There are legal pathways to deal with this, but the Trump team must go on the offense. Also, the issue of recess appointments is coming up and some in the media are saying Trump is threatening liberty. No, the Framers put recess appointments in the Constitution. In Trump's first term, the Democrat Congress slow-walked all his nominees. This time around he needs his people to get through quickly. Later, the Drill Down exposes the collusion of the Virginia Attorney General's office with radical animal rights activists. These awful organizations devoured what was a legit movement. Finally, Caroline Glick calls in to explain that the left wing in Israel is trying to oust PM Benjamin Netanyahu before President-elect Donald Trump takes office in January. They'll stop at nothing to stop Netanyahu from achieving total victory over its enemies. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Even after the New York DA's position with respect to a dismissal of Donald Trump's New York case was filed, there are lingering questions about what happens next with his other criminal cases as he begins his transition back to power and unveils his cabinet nominees. MSNBC legal analysts Mary McCord and Andrew Weissmann give an insider's perspective on what a final report in the DC case might look like from Special Counsel Jack Smith, as is a requirement within the special counsel rules. What will it encapsulate? And will it be made public? Next up: a few cases involving J6 rioters have been denied a stay, while others have had their trials postponed, but an overarching theme is that Trump's immunity should not extend to these defendants. And finally, Mary and Andrew ‘nerd out' on the Constitutional process of how a recess appointment works, why the early framers thought it necessary, and how the president-elect is angling to use it to avoid the Senate's long held role of advice and consent when it comes to political appointees.  Want to listen to this show without ads?

There's a lot to unpack around Donald Trump's ongoing criminal and civil cases after he won last week's election. To begin with, veteran prosecutors Mary McCord and Andrew Weissmann explain why Judge Merchan agreed to the joint request to put off today's decision on the impact of immunity in his hush money case. Then, they dig into the constitutional arguments against prosecuting a president while in office, whether federally or as a state prosecution, and how that might also relate to sentencing in New York. Next up, Andrew and Mary illustrate how Trump's win might impact his civil cases, to include both E Jean Carroll cases and his New York civil fraud case. And wrapping up, the duo reflect on the efforts by those convicted in J6 cases to have them dismissed or stayed, as they await a potential pardon by the president-elect.Want to listen to this show without ads?

In a somewhat surprising twist, after winning 34 felony convictions against Donald Trump for his efforts to cheat in the 2016 presidential election by criminally falsifying business records, DA Alvin Bragg's prosecutors have filed a letter with Judge Juan Merchan saying they "defer to the court" on whether Trump's sentencing, (presently set for September 18th), should be delayed until after the election. Why would prosecutors defer to the court on such a weighty issue? There's a clue in the two-page letter prosecutors filed with the court as to what's really driving this unexpected position.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 us 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/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.

Full Hour | Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by telling of breaking news, noting that DA Alvin Bragg has allowed for a 2-week delay in his Trump case. Dom plays back audio both from Fox News and Professor John Yoo, a regular guest, who break down why this happened and what this may mean for the election. Dom underlines a point made by Yoo, noting the implications that the Supreme Court decision on Trump's immunity has on the Bragg case, along with the other court cases that the former President faces. Then, Dom welcomes in Oklahoma Superintendent Ryan Walters back onto the Dom Giordano Program after he's been criticized by Leftist media for calling for bible-friendly education in Oklahoma and in schools nationwide. Walters has been quoted as saying that every classrooms should contain a bible, so it can be taught in historical context. Walters notes that there are certain parts of American history that is intertwined with the bible, pointing toward the Mayflower Compact, the Puritans, and the Quakers as multiple instances of history in which contextualizing the bible is important. Walters proposes this as a pushback against efforts to remove the bible from curriculum, expressing the importance in letting children know how faith led to some of America's greatest accomplishments and innovations.

In this intense episode of "Sara Gonzales Unfiltered," Sara dives into the political chaos of 2024, focusing on former President Donald Trump's shocking conviction on 34 felony counts. She expresses disbelief over the unprecedented trial, criticizing its impact on American democracy and highlighting the expired misdemeanors and the DOJ and FEC's refusal to prosecute. Sara questions DA Alvin Bragg's motivations, arguing that Trump, as a conservative in New York City, faced an inherently biased trial. She warns that this trial marks a dangerous shift toward a dystopian America where political retribution overrides justice. Highlighting a powerful video shared on Donald Trump's social media accounts, Sara critiques the political motivations and corruption in the justice system. She underscores the seven-year effort to build the case and the perceived bias of the presiding judge, emphasizing the political persecution of Trump. Sara discusses the need for an appeal, exploring the complexities of Trump's sentencing and potential Supreme Court involvement. She addresses public backlash and the surge in support for Trump, including increased donations and a six-point bump in his approval rating. Calling for stronger action from Republicans, Sara criticizes red state DAs for not charging Democrats like Biden, Hunter Biden, Hillary Clinton, Bob Menendez, and Nancy Pelosi. She emphasizes the need for real accountability and questions the reliance on ineffective hearings. Sara shares Joe Biden's reaction to Trump's claim of being a political prisoner, highlighting his smug response. She stresses the need for conservatives to fight back against the weaponization of the legal system and urges listeners to understand the broader implications, suggesting a calculated effort to undermine Trump's influence and candidacy.

Megyn Kelly gives her instant reaction and analysis to the breaking news that former President Donald Trump has been found guilty of all charges in the New York business records trial. She discusses why the entire sham case and trial was ridiculous, why the convictions will likely be overturned, why DA Alvin Bragg should be disbarred, the media response ahead, the outrageous sentencing date of July 11 just days before the Republican National Convention, the mistake the Trump defense team may have made in the trial, and more.

Then Carrie Sheffield, author of "Motorhome Prophecies,” joins to discuss her turbulent upbringing, her father claiming to be a prophet, her ability to overcome her circumstances and attend BYU and Harvard, turning her abuse into fuel for career success, how she became Christian after years of agnosticism, and more. McCarthy- https://www.nationalreview.com/author/andrew-c-mccarthy/Rigden- https://twitter.com/lexiethelawyerSheffield- https://www.amazon.com/dp/1546004386Follow The Megyn Kelly Show on all social platforms: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/MegynKellyTwitter: http://Twitter.com/MegynKellyShowInstagram: http://Instagram.com/MegynKellyShowFacebook: http://Facebook.com/MegynKellyShow Find out more information at: https://www.devilmaycaremedia.com/megynkellyshow

President Donald Trump's Manhattan trial (with DA Alvin Bragg leading the charge) continued yesterday with arguments about whether Trump violated the judge's gag order. The judge's ruling, which could result in Trump being held in contempt of court, is imminent. Also, the ACLJ filed an amicus brief in Trump's immunity case at the U.S. Supreme Court. Oral argument will take place tomorrow in Trump's massive SCOTUS case. The Sekulow team discusses Trump's legal issues, the ACLJ's amicus brief, President Biden's foreign policy failures – and much more.

Episode 1024 We have a jury! The preliminaries are nearly complete in the first criminal trial of a former president in US history, and we take this opportunity to review what we know so far about the Manhattan DA's prosecution of Donald Trump for funneling hush money to Stormy Daniels three weeks before the 2016 election. How did they pick a jury so quickly? What is DA Alvin Bragg's theory of the case? Could "retweets are not endorsements" actually be a loophole to a gag order? The Supreme Court heard arguments Monday from one of the 350 January 6th rioters charged under a 2002 statute passed by Congress in the wake of the many crimes of Enron. How did Congress's attempt to close a loophole which made it legal for some corporate criminals to destroy evidence so long as they did it by themselves open the door to the prosecution of violent insurrectionists? Is there a new, secret meaning to the word "otherwise" that only lawyers know?  Is the Supreme Court really about to agree with the defendant that the words "obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding [including in Congress], or attempts to do so" clearly do not apply to him--a person clearly on video violently attempting to obstruct, influence, and/or impede an official proceeding of Congress? We also consider the potential disruption to Jack Smith's DC prosecution of Trump, of which this statute is the basis for one of the four pending charges in that case. For the first time in U.S. history, articles of impeachment brought by the House have been dismissed by the Senate without a trial. Why was the impeachment of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for doing his job in a way that Republicans didn't like (a.k.a. a "high crime" and/or "misdemeanor") so totally dead on arrival? We pay zero respects to what we can only hope will go down as by far the stupidest impeachment in the history of impeachments. (See OA bonus episode of 2/11/24 for our breakdown of the House's articles of impeachment). Meanwhile in Florida, Fort Pierce's finest (and only) federal judge has returned fire after Trump prosecutor Jack Smith had the untrammeled nerve to notice in writing that Fort Pierce's only federal judge really sucks at her job (see OA 1016 & 1020). Fortunately for everyone however, it turns out the only person responsible for her many mistakes is--Jack Smith?  1. 18 USC 1512(c) 2. Defendant/Petitioner Joseph Fischer's brief in Fischer v US 3. Government's brief in Fischer v. US 4. Audio and transcript from SCOTUS oral argument in Fischer v. US (4/15/24) 5. New York Penal Law 175.10 6. Judge Aileen Cannon's denial of Trump's motion to dismiss based on the Presidential Records Act & gratuitous reference to Jack Smith's complaints about her bizarre thought experiment re: jury instructions (4/4/2024) 7. Judge Cannon's order reconsidering her prior decision to unseal sensitive information in which she blames Jack Smith for letting her get the law wrong (4/9/24)  If you'd like to support the show (and lose the ads!), please pledge at patreon.com/law!

New York City District Attorney Alvin Bragg is pushing for former President Donald Trump's hush money trial judge, Juan Merchan, to fine Trump $3,000 for allegedly violating a gag order by disparaging witnesses in the case. Meanwhile, Congressman Thomas Massie and Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene are urging Congressman Mike Johnson to step down from the Speakership, with Massie even suggesting that Johnson pre-announce his resignation akin to former Speaker John Boehner. Despite these calls, Speaker Johnson has firmly stated his intention not to resign. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has criticized House Republicans for impeaching Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas over "policy disagreements," cautioning that such actions set a concerning precedent for Congress. BlazeTV contributor Eric July joins the discussion to provide insights into the current turmoil in Congress.

DML and Denny discuss the hush money case brought against Trump by DA Alvin Bragg, and its implications on the 2024 election. They also discuss the developing war between Israel and Iran.

Pollster John McLaughlin dives into recent polling show that the average age of voters switching to Donald Trump is “age is 35.” McLaughlin says, usually “the average age of a voter is usually around 50 years old. So we're getting the Generation Z people coming in, because they want opportunities, they endured the lockdown, which was, you know, a really bad time for young people in America.“ McLaughlin also explains how polling and data shows that New York is up for grabs for Donald Trump, after “58% of all voters say Joe Biden's playing a role in these [Trump] indictments and that they're political, and that there's a double standard in America, and [another poll showed] 56% to 30%, the majority of Americans say [Biden is] trying to put Trump in jail to stop him from winning the election. And then you have in New York, a state like New York where a lot of this is going on where Leticia James, the Attorney General, instead of prosecuting criminals, she's trying to confiscate Donald Trump's wealth, take away his real estate holdings, and for no real crime, because there's no victims. The banks made money, he paid all his loans back on time. They railroaded him in the courts. And now they're about to start with Alvin Bragg, who's the Manhattan District Attorney, who when the cops get beat up in Times Square by Venezuelan gangs who are here illegally, what do they do? They let the gangs go and the cops get beat up, and so [Bragg's} going to prosecute Trump next on some phony charges. So you got Jack Smith, you've got Fani Willis in Atlanta, they're all coordinating with the Biden White House. And it's and it's true, [Just the News has] reported it.“See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
