August 31, 2025; 7am: All eyes are on Chicago after President Trump's continued threats to deploy the National Guard to the Windy City. On Saturday, Chicago's Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order demanding that Trump stand down. In response, President Trump continued his threats, warning Illinois Governor JB Pritzker to “straighten out” Chicago quickly or the city will be subjected to federal law enforcement takeover. The President has echoed these threats to several Democrat-led cities, and elected officials are issuing a warning: military troops who carry out Trump's orders might be at risk for prosecution. Philadelphia's District Attorney, Larry Krasner, joins “The Weekend” to discuss. For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnbcTikTok: @theweekendmsnbcTo listen to this show and other MSNBC podcasts without ads, sign up for MSNBC Premium on Apple Podcasts.

It's been another wild week, after the D.C. Attorney General sued the government for attempting to install the head of the D.E.A. as D.C.'s emergency police commissioner. Following an emergency hearing, US Attorney General Pam Bondi backed down and re-wrote the directive. But Andrew and Mary highlight why that's just the start: it's no longer just the D.C. National Guard being deployed in the nation's capital, National Guard units from five other red states are being sent to the city, making a complicated stew of who's in charge and who has jurisdiction. Next, they weave this thread into last week's trial over whether California's National Guard performed law enforcement operations in Los Angeles, a potential violation of The Posse Comitatus Act. And with Russia and Ukraine so much in the news, Andrew offers some reflections from the 2019 Special Counsel's report that exposes Russia's long-held goal of taking over the Donbas region. And last up, Andrew and Mary fill listeners in on two DC Circuit cases that have their attention: a decision allowing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to be dismantled and another that allows Trump to withhold billions in foreign aid.And a reminder: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

"Hidden in the Walls" takes you inside one of Sacramento's most startling discoveries — a case where the truth was buried inside the walls of an unsuspecting home. District Attorney, Thien Ho, spoke with the homeowner who uncovered the secret and made the call. We also spoke with the detectives who followed the trail, and the responding officer who saw it unfold. From the initial shock to the moment the evidence came to light, this is the full, unfiltered account of a case you'll never forget.

Patrick McDonough joins Dr. Sandie Morgan to discuss his groundbreaking $40 million jury verdict against a hotel for enabling child sex trafficking and how this landmark case is changing accountability standards across the hospitality industry. Patrick McDonough Patrick J. McDonough is a nationally recognized attorney and advocate who leads the Sex Trafficking Division at Andersen, Tate & Carr. With a legal career marked by justice-driven leadership and deep community engagement, Pat has dedicated his life to representing survivors of sex trafficking and fighting systemic injustice. Before joining Andersen, Tate & Carr, Pat made history as the youngest District Attorney in the state of Georgia, where he pioneered the development of child advocacy centers, providing trauma-informed care and legal support to child victims of sexual abuse. In his legal practice, Pat has built a comprehensive, survivor-centered approach to litigation, assembling a national network of professionals to support clients from first contact through final judgment. His efforts have earned widespread recognition, being featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, Sports Illustrated, Forbes, and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Outside the courtroom, Pat has raised over $1 million to support unhoused individuals and founded HomeFirst Gwinnett and the Gwinnett Reentry Intervention Program (GRIP). Key Points McDonough won a historic $40 million jury verdict in July 2025 against United Inn & Suites in Decatur, Georgia, marking one of the first TVPRA cases against a hotel to reach trial and verdict. The case involved a 16-year-old victim who was trafficked over 200 times in just 40 days, with hotel staff selling her condoms and ignoring obvious signs of trafficking. The verdict included $10 million in compensatory damages to make the victim whole and $30 million in punitive damages designed to send a message to the entire hospitality industry. Hotels cannot claim ignorance when red flags are obvious—if staff see what appears to be prostitution, they should call law enforcement regardless of whether they can definitively identify it as trafficking. Clear warning signs include high foot traffic with men going in and out of rooms every 20-30 minutes, scantily clad young women, large numbers of used condoms found during cleaning, and luxury cars visiting budget hotels. Hotel staff empowerment comes from the top—management must train employees and create a culture where staff are encouraged to report suspicious activity rather than just "rent rooms and make money." Simple staff training on recognizing red flags and proper reporting procedures can prevent hotels from becoming trafficking hotspots and protect them from legal liability. McDonough has settled over 80 similar cases, but this verdict was particularly significant because the hotel refused reasonable settlement offers and chose to go to trial. Community members play a vital role in prevention by reporting unusual traffic patterns and suspicious activity to law enforcement, as it truly "takes a village" to combat trafficking.

When “War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength” we are living in an era of alternate facts. Mary and Andrew apply this Orwellian concept to what's happening this week, after President Trump cited section 740 of the Home Rule Act to federalize the DC police force and send in the national guard to the nation's capital. They detail how the president was able to do this and why Congress will be the ultimate arbiter of this move. Then, they highlight some litigation befitting this theme, with Judge Breyer's trial starting this week on the use of the national guard in Los Angeles, and some decisions including not to unseal grand jury testimony in the Ghislaine Maxwell case, plus an Appeals court blocking contempt proceedings in JGG. Last up, Andrew and Mary take a look at Judge Henderson's opinion in the OMB case and why it deserves more attention than it's received. Further reading: Here is President Trump's letter to Congress citing section 740, courtesy of the New York Times.And some exciting news: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/6jS8ZvrgoVU On August 4, 2025, a scheduling conference where the defense argued about the overwhelming volume of discovery (10-11 Terabytes) and requested the prosecution narrow down what will be used at trial. The judge, however, noted that the defense has had the same discovery as the prosecution and that the prosecution has an obligation for full disclosure. A contentious motion to quash a subpoena issued by the defense. The defense is accused of seeking communications between the victim's family's civil spokesperson and the District Attorney's office, which the victim's family's lawyer argues is improper and irrelevant to the criminal trial.

In next installment of Texas Talks Presents: Hemp in Texas, host Brad Swail sits down with Sarah Stogner, the elected District Attorney for Texas' 143rd Judicial District. Known for her unfiltered honesty and fierce independence, Stogner makes the legal case against SB5—the controversial bill to ban hemp-derived THC. She argues that the real threat to Texans isn't hemp, but selective prosecution, government overreach, and bad lawmaking driven by special interests. From generational alcohol abuse to the collapse of prosecutorial credibility in THC cases, this episode is a wake-up call from inside the justice system. Stogner says what others won't: banning hemp won't protect children—it'll destroy businesses, waste resources, and push more Texans into the black market.

Earlier this year, we invited the filmmakers behind Cycle to the podcast for a deeper look at their document about police violence in America. In the months since, Cycle won Best Feature Documentary at the Brooklyn Film Festival and is now gearing up for more screenings and more film festivals around Wisconsin and beyond. So it seemed like a good time to revisit our conversation with directors Laura Dyan Kezman and William Howell. Enjoy. *****On this episode, Dori welcomes some very special guests to talk about a very important film: Cycle.More than five years in the making, Cycle takes an unflinching look at the patterns behind police violence in America through the story of Ty'rese West, an 18-year-old from Racine who was shot and killed by Mount Pleasant police officer Eric Giese in 2019 after being stopped for riding a bicycle without a headlight.Joining the podcast to talk about their film — and their deep connections to it — are directors Laura Dyan Kezman and William Howell, both of whom are from Racine. Uniquely Milwaukee host Kim Shine also sits in for this one as the quartet talk about:  Howell's personal connection to West's family and the Racine community, which helped build trust for the deeply personal footage in the film. The challenging process of obtaining public information from authorities. How the death of George Floyd in 2020 reframed their work. Who holds power in the criminal justice system, particularly the District Attorney. The challenges of and potential for filmmaking in Wisconsin. The hope that Cycle serves as a catalyst and inspires viewers to push social justice forward. *****Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Co.

Accountability or weaponization? That's the question Andrew and Mary tackle in their 150th episode together, starting with the distraction of the Office of the Special Counsel's investigation into Jack Smith for possible Hatch Act violations. In other DOJ related matters, they give some context to the Trump administration's continued battle to keep Alina Habba, a Trump ally, as New Jersey U.S. Attorney, just as The Legal Accountability Center filed bar complaints against lawyers who have represented Trump's White House in court. In another sideshow, Andrew and Mary break down what to make of a report on the “Clinton Plan” emails, declassified amid the Epstein controversy. And last up, they detail the decision out of the 9th Circuit Court which upheld a pause on ICE raids in California.  Further Reading: Here is the piece Andrew and his colleague Ryan Goodman wrote for Just Security in October 2024: Refuting the Latest Baseless Attacks Against Special Counsel Jack SmithHere is the 9th Circuit Court decision on ICE Raids: Appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California And some exciting news: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

Pressured for transparency from all sides of the aisle, the Department of Justice made a surprising move to try and unseal grand jury materials from the Jeffery Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell cases. Andrew and Mary discuss why this move is so shocking and what it signifies.

New York State's bail reform laws have been under intense scrutiny ever since Thursday morning when the news broke of the murder of 44-year-old Amanda Thompson in Buffalo's Lovejoy District. The alleged perpetrator had multiple prior arrests, including one which posted a $50,000 bail and the District Attorney's office requested he not be released. With there being so much conversation around bail reform, Buffalo Attorney Paul Cambria joins the show to discuss what exactly bail reform is and if it played a role in Thompson's murder.

We open up the show with Buffalo Attorney Paul Cambria to explain New York State's much maligned bail reform laws in the wake of the murder of 44-year-old Amanda Thompson, and whether it played a role in her murder, and we pose that question to you as well. Do you think the system failed Amanda Thompson? Given that the alleged perpetrator had an extensive criminal record, including one arrest which posted a $50,000 bail and the District Attorney's office requested he not be released, and he violated an order of protection yet was allowed to be a free man until allegedly committing the murder, did the system fail?

Dentist James Craig faces murder charges for allegedly poisoning his wife of 23+ years--and the mother of his six kids--and today the coworker who reported James Craig and called the police is testifying. As she details what she refers to as disturbing and unusual behavior, jurors listen in as they learn more about the digital evidence, texts and unusual activity leading up to the murder of Angela Craig. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuestsin all of true crime. In this episode, STS host Emmy award-winning journalist Joel Waldman is joined by a former District Attorney in the very are where James Craig is being tried along with another attorney who is an expert in poison murder cases. Accused of poisoning his wife Angela with potassium cyanide hidden in her protein shakes, Dentist Craig James is facing first-degree murder charges. Prosecutors allege he staged a carefully calculated plot, researching lethal substances and ordering poison online while pretending to be a loving husband and father. The case has only gotten darker, with shocking text messages, alleged affairs, and claims of a murder-for-hire plot surfacing as key evidence. James' trial started on July 15, 2025 with opening statements. The state gave infidelity and financial woes as a motive while the defense said their client is innocent--and the investigation was limited only pointing to Craig from the very start. As Craig is on trial and more evidence gets released the question remains-- will justice be served? And what does Justice look like...All Things STS: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcast#JamesCraig #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #MurderTrial #KillerDentist #AngelaCraig #PoisoningCase#CrimeStory #JusticeForAngela

//The Wire//2000Z July 15, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: FLOODING CONTINUES THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. CONCERNS GROWING REGARDING SHIFTING PRIORITIES IN WASHINGTON.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Syria: Conflict has erupted once again, as fighting has flared up between Druze militias and the  collection of Bedouin and pro-government forces loosely aligned under al-Jolani's new regime. A few hundred casualties have been reported in the town of Suwayda over the weekend, and a very hesitant "ceasefire" has been declared after this latest round of fighting.-HomeFront-Colorado: Following a high-profile kidnapping attempt that occurred in Aurora last year, a District Attorney has faced backlash for her efforts to free the perpetrator of the attack. Solomon Galligan was arrested for attempting to kidnap a child on the street in Aurora last year, and on Monday reports emerged that DA Amy Padden was attempting to drop all charges against him because he was found mentally incompetent to stand trial.USA: Flooding incidents continue as before, with heavy rainfall causing flooding throughout New York and New Jersey overnight. In Texas, recovery efforts continue amid constant heavy rainfall, with roughly 160x persons still being reported missing from the initial flooding crisis that struck the Guadalupe River basin two weeks ago. The casualty count for the floods in Texas so far remains at 132x reported fatalities.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: At the moment, the White House appears to be radically shifting priorities on many different issues. The shift to cover up the Epstein client list, and to hush-up all aspects of the case is without question a bridge too far for most people to accept. Claiming that the largest known human trafficking network in the world simply had no clients is an incredulous turning point in history that President Trump will not be able to walk away from hoping that everyone forgets. Likewise, relations between the United States and Russia have deteriorated further following the events of the past few days. The war in Ukraine has sharply veered away from any sort of peace agreement, with the United States ramping up arms shipments to Ukraine once again. Though nothing is confirmed at this point, the usual leaks have indicated that the White House is considering the next wave of aid to Ukraine, and what weapons systems it will entail. Some whispers suggest the US will allow Ukraine to increase direct attacks on Moscow with American arms, and other rumors suggest that the US is looking to send more capable arms and missiles with which to continue the war. Time will tell what is decided, but the bottom line is that the flow chart is pointing toward an increase in the war's activity, and all parties are trending away from peace talks.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

Following the emergence of new evidence from messages submitted by the Department of Justice's whistleblower, Erez Reuveni, Andrew and Mary discuss its potential implications for the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia and the confirmation process of Emil Bove III. They also examine a Southern California ruling to halt immigration stops based on race. On the other coast, they look at a temporary block of Trump's order restricting birthright citizenship—a case where Mary has particular expertise via her role in a related birthright citizenship case: CASA v. Trump. Finally, SCOTUS paves way for mass layoffs of federal workers, and DOJ opens investigations into former FBI Director James Comey and former CIA Director John Brennan.Listener Note: This podcast was recorded several hours before the Supreme Court decision allowing for the dismantling of the Department of Education. Andrew and Mary will discuss on next week's episode.Want to listen to this show without ads? Sign up for MSNBC Premium on Apple Podcasts.

When a man's reflection begins moving on its own, he realizes the mirror may be hiding something far more sinister than his own image.A man becomes unsettled when his reflection in a mirror begins to act independently—not mirroring his movements. At first he doubts it, but as the reflection starts making its own decisions, a chilling tension builds. The reflection's actions escalate into something malicious, forcing the man to confront the shocking realization that it may be a separate, sinister entity locked inside his mirror, threatening to take over. | #RetroRadio EP0462Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateCHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:30.028 = CBS Radio Mystery Theater, “Last Trip of Charter Boat Sally” (July 15, 1976)00:45:28.662 = The LineUp, “The Fur Flaunting Floozy” (September 26, 1951)01:11:10.917 = Macabre, “Man In The Mirror” (November 27, 1961) ***WD01:40:13.336 = A Man Called X, “Stolen Diamonds” (November 25, 1944) ***WD02:09:22.339 = Philip Marlowe, Pigeon's Blood” (June 11, 1949)02:39:04.386 = Dark Fantasy, “The Thing From The Darkness” (April 03, 1942) ***WD03:03:32.178 = The Black Mass, “Shidah and Kuziba” (October 16, 1973) ***WD03:17:27.600 = Beyond Midnight, “The Thing In The Cabin 105” (February 28, 1969) ***WD03:48:17.040 = Mind Webs, “The Great Slow Kings” and “Earthman Bearing Gifts” (March 18, 1979)04:16:28.423 = Ellery Queen Minute Mysteries, “Tell Tale Desk” (1939-1948) ***WD04:17:21.472 = CBS Radio Workshop, “The Case of the White Kitten” (July 13, 1956) ***WD04:46:27.123 = Chamber of Horrors, “The Waxwork” (ADU) ***WD05:12:44.258 = Mystery In The Air, “Lodger” (August 14, 1947)05:42:18.629 = Molle' Mystery Theater, “Angel Face” (December 20, 1946)06:11:40.235 = Mr. District Attorney, “Money Machine” (April 11, 1951) ***WD06:41:34.935 = Cisco Kid, “Mummy In The Desert” (April 21, 1953) ***WD07:08:31.836 = Murder at Midnight, “Mark of Cain” (September 06, 1946) ***WD07:34:01.625 = The Black Museum, “The Brick” (January 29, 1952) ***WD07:56:17.509 = Mysterious Traveler, “Death Has a Cold Breath” (March 29, 1949) ***WD08:21:44.340 = Mystery House, “Subrosa Justice” (April 07, 1946) ***WD08:45:41.038 = Night Beat, “Big John McMasters” (March 04, 1951) ***WD09:15:15.961 = CBC's Nightfall, “Volcano” (March 05, 1982) ***WD09:44:30.235 = Show Close(ADU) = Air Date Unknown(LQ) = Low Quality***WD = Remastered, edited, or cleaned up by Weird Darkness to make the episode more listenable.

Why Didn't The Kohberger DA Consider The Victims' Families' Wishes On Plea Deal Bryan Kohberger's controversial plea deal has left some victim families feeling betrayed and dismissed. Despite vocal opposition from families seeking justice, the District Attorney chose to offer Kohberger life without parole, removing the death penalty from consideration. In this essential breakdown, former FBI Behavioral Chief Robin Dreeke explores the critical question: Why didn't prosecutors give more weight to the victims' families' wishes? Dreeke provides a comprehensive analysis of the complex decision-making process prosecutors face in high-profile murder cases, balancing guaranteed conviction and judicial efficiency against the emotional and psychological trauma endured by victims' families. Drawing on years of high-stakes experience, he examines whether this plea agreement was strategically sound or simply expedient, and what messages it sends to families seeking full accountability. Throughout the discussion, Dreeke unpacks how plea deals affect family members psychologically, potentially undermining their healing and closure. He highlights the broader implications for public confidence in the criminal justice system when victims' voices are not adequately heard or considered. This episode is a hard-hitting exploration of prosecutorial discretion, victim advocacy, and the delicate line between legal strategy and emotional justice. Listeners will also hear insights into how plea negotiations typically unfold behind the scenes and what factors can lead a district attorney's office to move forward despite opposition from grieving families. Robin Dreeke's analysis helps us understand the difficult trade-offs inherent in criminal prosecutions, challenging listeners to reconsider what "justice" truly means in cases as emotionally charged and tragic as this.

In July of 1908 the body of twenty-year-old Hazel Drew was found floating in a mill pond in Upstate New York. Her death captured headlines across the nation and around the world, but after a whirlwind investigation lasting less than thirty days (despite a myriad of suspects), the District Attorney abruptly closed the case. Joining me is Jerry Drake, author of "Hazel Was a Good Girl: Solving the Murder that Inspired Twin Peaks". Through meticulous research and new evidence, he focuses on an intriguing, rarely discussed suspect—and a set of circumstances that turn this classic murder mystery on its head.

Depends on who you ask and how you view the situation. Stigall is well aware many are angry about President Trump entertaining special dispensation for illegal aliens to work in agriculture and hospitality. He's also well aware of why we're in this mess, who's responsible, and what the goals of it were in the first place. Still, its an issue with which we all must deal. Not emotional rhetoric, but actual solutions and honest conversation. Steve Moore discusses the economic impact of it as well as a roaring economy thus far in spite of President Trump's tariff agenda. Also, a new Superman movie is coming out this week which lead Stigall to wonder what happened to the original slogan that included "the American way." In 2025, the creative forces of Hollywood think differently than in the 1940s.

After Friday's Supreme Court ruling to limit nationwide injunctions, Mary and Andrew begin by breaking down what it means for future challenges to executive actions as they make their way through the courts, and what's next for Mary's birthright citizenship case. They also tackle the DHS lawsuit against all federal judges on the district court in Maryland, before reviewing the Justice Department's plans to prioritize cases revoking citizenship—aka ‘denaturalizing' US citizens. This, along with their discussion of ICE targeting migrant workers and using routine traffic stops to check legal status, shines a light on the legal limits of ICE's tactics.Want to listen to this show without ads?

Malik Beasley at center of gambling investigation; Pistons pause deal talks with free agent, per reportOne of the NBA's top free agents is now the subject of a serious gambling investigation from the U.S. District Attorney's office. Detroit Pistons guard Malik Beasley faces allegations of gambling related to NBA games and prop bets during the 2023-24 season as a member of the Milwaukee Bucks, according to ESPN. One prominent sportsbook reportedly detected unusual betting activity on Beasley props beginning in early 2024.

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?
