President Donald Trump has taken an increasingly personal role in the government's clemency process, wielding pardons aid his allies and advance his own political grievances.A Reuters investigation found that 96% of Trump's second-term clemency grants have gone to recipients who didn't fulfill longstanding DOJ guidelines for such requests. Past presidents on have sidestepped those rules before, but fewer than 1% of those who received clemency during the Biden administration and just 14% of recipients in Trump's first presidency failed to meet the guidelines.Pardon applicants once had to comply with longstanding DOJ guidelines, such as a five-year wait after conviction or demonstrated remorse for their crimes. But a Reuters' analysis shows that under Trump, clemency now is far more dependent upon access to his inner circle. They also found that “access is enhanced when an applicant can craft a narrative that resonates with the president's own sense of victimization.”During his first administration, Trump granted just 238 pardons and commutations, most of which came amid his frantic final days in office. But this term the White House has made clemencies a key part of its agenda.As part of our weekly series “If You Can Keep it,” we discuss pardons in the second Trump Administration.Find more of our programs online.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, WJNO's Brian Mudd fills in for Mark. If you read the news, do you feel your intelligence has been insulted? There's an old saying: those who can't do, teach. When it comes to the media, those who don't know, report. It's been a great week for the U.S. tanker traffic which has almost returned to normal pre-war levels, the price of oil has returned to normal for summer, and the Trump Administration has brokered an agreement between the U.S., Israel and Lebanon. Yet according to the media, the world is terrible. There may be two sides to every story, but there's only one side to facts. So if you think your intelligence has been insulted, you're right. Then, the Senate still can't get its act together and pass the SAVE America Act. Why is this important? Voter fraud has always existed. In Florida, the DOJ announced three arrests of non-citizens for voting in federal elections. Three cases in one week in a red state. How much worse is voter fraud in sanctuary states and cities? With the midterm elections coming up, and voter ID being a 90/10 issue with Americans, we still can't get the SAVE America Act across the finish line. Also, the election integrity project ranks election integrity all over the world. The U.S. scores 54. California's score is 35, lower than Haiti at 37. Between mail-in voting, ballot harvesting and other shenanigans, no wonder they're still counting votes in the CA primary. When you have blue states like CA bent on lowering election standards, federal minimum requirements, like voter ID, must come into play. Finally, the extent of the Democrat's long game is underappreciated. Starting with Saul Alinsky in the 1960s, then with the elections of Bernie Sanders in 1990, Barack Obama in 2004, The Squad in 2018, and Zohran Mamdani in 2025, the Democrats have moved further and further to the hard left. Trump is right: the midterm elections have never been more important. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The number 1 group that may be responsible for protecting Federal Judges, empowering them to root out fraud and corruption by the DOJ and Trump, and ring fencing our rule of law, may be the 300+ former federal and state judges yoked together by Judge J. Michael Luttig and Nancy Gertner, who have filed dozens of briefs, motions and applications to give federal judges the support they need and encourage emergency action. Popok reports on 3 such examples in the last 14 days with 35 former fed judges supporting Judge Williams to find fraud on the court by trump in Miami; another 174 federal judges encouraging the DC Fed Appeals Court to allow a judge to continue criminal contempt proceedings against the Trump Administration, and another 101 state and federal judges calling for the disbarment of the “unfit for office” Todd Blanche, Trump's AG Nominee. Popok reports, along with exclusive briefing by Judge Luttig and Lee Gelernt of the ACLU.

Iran just struck another cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz, and the US response was dead silence. MeidasTouch host Katie Phang won big against the DOJ in regard to the release of the Epstein files. The podcast digs into the market manipulation behind falling oil prices, Marco Rubio's rough day fielding questions he clearly didn't want to answer, and the family members showing up at official diplomatic meetings where they have no business being. Plus, new inflation numbers just hit a three-year high, and more. Ben, Brett, and Jordy break it all down!

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Kevin Frazier, Roger Parloff, and Molly Roberts to talk through some of the week's big news in AI, including:“Citizen Cain't.” When the NAACP sued Elon Musk's xAI under the Clean Air Act—alleging that the company built dozens of gas-fired turbines to power a data center in Mississippi without relevant air permits and exposing nearby, predominantly Black communities to harmful pollution—the Justice Department opted to do something it has never done before: it intervened in a citizen suit against a private company in order to kill it. DOJ's motion offers two theories: first, that shutting down the turbines would threaten national security because the military relies on xAI's Grok Gov model (including in relation to the Iran war) to secure the nation, and second, that the Constitution's vesting of executive power in the president means private citizens cannot enforce federal law over the executive's objection. How strong are these arguments? And what would it mean for environmental and other citizen-enforcement suits if DOJ were to prevail?“Grok the Vote.” We may be living through the first true “AI elections.” In Manhattan's NY-12 Democratic primary, more than $40 million in AI-industry and AI-safety money turned a little-known assemblyman, Alex Bores, into something of a national referendum on whether voters care about AI regulation and AI safety—though Bores ultimately lost to Micah Lasher this week. Meanwhile, overseas in Malaysia, parties are using chatbots and other AI-driven technologies to reach out to voters in new and novel ways. And just this week in Washington, a new study has concluded that frontier AI is perhaps more persuasive than ever, but also may not be as politically neutral as some suspect or one might hope. What does this all mean for democratic politics when both money and the messaging involved in our politics are increasingly shaped by AI?“Kill, Kill Switch, Kill, Kill!” The government's frontier-AI "kill switch" is now ready to have its first day in court. If you recall, a few weeks ago, the Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security sent Anthropic an "Is Informed" letter ordering it to suspend all access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models for any foreign nationals, including its own employees. This ultimately led Anthropic to pull access to those models for everyone within hours. But this past Monday, June 22, a technology startup called Legion LegalTech filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government alleging that it has acted in a way that is unlawful and raises a number of statutory and constitutional concerns. How strong is the legal challenge, and what does it tell us about whether courts—rather than the executive—will end up defining the government's power to switch a frontier model on and off?In object lessons, Molly sticks to the script for this week's episode with her call-out of Erik Nitsche's “Atoms for Peace” poster series for General Dynamics. Also inspired by this week's theme, Kevin dives into some “light summer reading” about technology, globalization, and the law with “Rules for a Flat World,” by Gillian Hadfield. Roger, similarly, is “unwinding” with “The Winter Warriors,” by Olivier Norek, a novel about the lesser-known David vs. Goliath story of Finland taking on the Soviet Union in 1939. And Scott says enough already! He's headed on vacation next week, and so is Rational Security.

The Department of Justice has until next week to produce several emails and documents with the names of potential Epstein co-conspirators revealed. An independent journalist sued the DOJ to have access to the blacked out names, saying the government is still trying to protect “the very powerful and the very rich.” The ruling states the DOJ has to either produce the unredacted document by July 2nd or explain why the redactions should not be removed.

OA1273 - On June 23, 2026, eight people were sentenced in DOJ's first so-called “Antifa” terrorism prosecution by federal judge Reed O'Connor in the Northern District of Texas to a combined 450 years in federal prison for their participation in a protest held at the Prarieland ICE detention facility on July 4th, 2025. Six of these defendants were charged with what amounted to being present at (or in the vicinity of) the protest, and one who wasn't even there received 30 years for moving a box of First Amendment-protected publications. In this continuing coverage of one of the most unjust criminal prosecutions of the second Trump administration, Matt goes deep on the government's case to show just how shoddy the “material support for terrorism” charges really were, and how DOJ used a few text messages, some consumer fireworks shot off on the 4th of July far from any people or property, and $4805.95 in property damage to engineer sentencing enhancements which virtually guaranteed that these protesters would receive harsher punishments than many defendants in the federal system charged with far more serious offenses. What does all of this mean for the future of dissent in the U.S., especially given the national security memo which promised heightened investigation and prosecution of “anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, [ ]anti-Christianity… and hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, and morality” after the assassination of Charlie Kirk?

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Kevin Frazier, Roger Parloff, and Molly Roberts to talk through some of the week's big news in AI, including:“Citizen Cain't.” When the NAACP sued Elon Musk's xAI under the Clean Air Act—alleging that the company built dozens of gas-fired turbines to power a data center in Mississippi without relevant air permits and exposing nearby, predominantly Black communities to harmful pollution—the Justice Department opted to do something it has never done before: it intervened in a citizen suit against a private company in order to kill it. DOJ's motion offers two theories: first, that shutting down the turbines would threaten national security because the military relies on xAI's Grok Gov model (including in relation to the Iran war) to secure the nation, and second, that the Constitution's vesting of executive power in the president means private citizens cannot enforce federal law over the executive's objection. How strong are these arguments? And what would it mean for environmental and other citizen-enforcement suits if DOJ were to prevail?“Grok the Vote.” We may be living through the first true “AI elections.” In Manhattan's NY-12 Democratic primary, more than $40 million in AI-industry and AI-safety money turned a little-known assemblyman, Alex Bores, into something of a national referendum on whether voters care about AI regulation and AI safety—though Bores ultimately lost to Micah Lasher this week. Meanwhile, overseas in Malaysia, parties are using chatbots and other AI-driven technologies to reach out to voters in new and novel ways. And just this week in Washington, a new study has concluded that frontier AI is perhaps more persuasive than ever, but also may not be as politically neutral as some suspect or one might hope. What does this all mean for democratic politics when both money and the messaging involved in our politics are increasingly shaped by AI?“Kill, Kill Switch, Kill, Kill!” The government's frontier-AI "kill switch" is now ready to have its first day in court. If you recall, a few weeks ago, the Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security sent Anthropic an "Is Informed" letter ordering it to suspend all access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models for any foreign nationals, including its own employees. This ultimately led Anthropic to pull access to those models for everyone within hours. But this past Monday, June 22, a technology startup called Legion LegalTech filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government alleging that it has acted in a way that is unlawful and raises a number of statutory and constitutional concerns. How strong is the legal challenge, and what does it tell us about whether courts—rather than the executive—will end up defining the government's power to switch a frontier model on and off?In object lessons, Molly sticks to the script for this week's episode with her call-out of Erik Nitsche's “Atoms for Peace” poster series for General Dynamics. Also inspired by this week's theme, Kevin dives into some “light summer reading” about technology, globalization, and the law with “Rules for a Flat World,” by Gillian Hadfield. Roger, similarly, is “unwinding” with “The Winter Warriors,” by Olivier Norek, a novel about the lesser-known David vs. Goliath story of Finland taking on the Soviet Union in 1939. And Scott says enough already! He's headed on vacation next week, and so is Rational Security.

"Congress and the public deserve a clear answer about whether the Epstein Estate paid a settlement to an accuser who made serious allegations against Donald Trump, and who was interviewed four times by the FBI."On 24 February 2026, NPR reporter Stephen Fowler published an investigative report comparing the public database of Epstein files released by the DOJ on January 30th with the Ghislaine Maxwell trial evidence index (handed to her defense attorneys in 2021 as part of standard discovery procedures). The two documents do not match.According to the evidence index, the FBI conducted four interviews with a woman in 2019. These interviews produced four sets of written summaries, known as 302 reports, which should have all been included in the January 30th document release. Only one was included, in which she claimed she'd been assaulted by Jeffrey Epstein when she was just 13 years old. The other three were the ones in which this woman - known only as Jane Doe 4 - made credible accusations against the sitting President of the United States...This is a continuation of a series we started last year.

The Department of Justice has until next week to produce several emails and documents with the names of potential Epstein co-conspirators revealed. An independent journalist sued the DOJ to have access to the blacked out names, saying the government is still trying to protect “the very powerful and the very rich.” The ruling states the DOJ has to either produce the unredacted document by July 2nd or explain why the redactions should not be removed. Among the group of documents ordered released, the FBI notes from the unverified allegations of assault by one woman against Trump.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's Headlines: Meta tried to silence former employee Sarah Wynn-Williams from promoting her tell-all Careless People for over a year through an arbitration agreement, she's now suing in federal court, and the book sold 130,000 copies anyway. On the Epstein files, Leon Black is testifying to Congress today about his $170 million payment to Epstein and his alleged use of Epstein as a hush money middleman, with "please call Leon Black" appearing over 300 times in the Epstein files, and a federal judge separately ruled the DOJ must unredact specific Epstein file pages by July 2nd — including FBI interviews with a woman who claimed Trump sexually assaulted her as a minor — or make a case in court for why they can't. On the war beat,  Bill Cassidy reversed his war powers vote essentially the day after his screaming match with Trump, Iran attacked another ship in the Strait of Hormuz, the chief negotiator announced that "management of the Strait will never return to the way it was before," and the White House formally requested $87 billion more from Congress for the war, because the previous billions went so well. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court dropped three 6-3 rulings that struck down Hawaii's gun law banning firearms in public spaces, ended TPS for Syrian and Haitian refugees who have been here over a decade and made it illegal for consumers to sue manufacturers over undisclosed product hazards, which is bad news for the MAHA crowd. A lower court judge blocked Trump's executive order restricting mail-in voting and creating citizenship voter lists, calling it an attempt to "intimidate local election officials" that falls outside presidential authority. And finally, New York City's Rent Guidelines Board voted to freeze rent on approximately one million rent-stabilized apartments starting October 1st, which is Zohran Mamdani's second big win this week after sweeping the primaries, and landlords are already preparing to sue about it.

Before heading into the weekend, there are a few minor issues we need to clear up. One: that weirdo Trump FEMA official is leaving. Which one? The one who teleported into a Waffle House, of course. How is he leaving? That we don't know, and it might not even be worth trying to guess, honestly. Oh, and remember the Shark Tank weirdo who was so sure that anyone opposing his plans for a mega data center in Utah just had to be a Chinese Communist Party front? Well, he's backing off of that one. Which is nice, I guess. Oh, oh, and remember that housing bill that both was and wasn't presented to the president for signature? Well, it's been presented. Again? Maybe? Oh, oh, oh, and remember Elise Stefanik? Well, we'll be rid of her for the time being, but MAGA weirdos are hoping to replace her with a different MAGA weirdo. Oh, oh, oh, oh, and remember the Reflecting Pool? It doesn't really matter if you don't, because it's whole history is going to be made up, anyway. Anyway, it turns out that the only contractor with real experience in dealing with it didn't want anything to do with Trump's plans for it. So they gave the job to Gomez Addams, instead. Looking ahead, at least on a story that's already got a long and checkered past, Todd Blanche and the DOJ might kinda sorta be in some trouble over the Epstein Files. But you know how that whole executive branch accountability thing goes. Though there are still some solid efforts being made at reviving the concept. It's all the more important, given that the leopards who ate the faces of the original "relitigate Watergate" champions are now looking to relitigate Watergate. Are you old enough to remember when ICE was spending like a drunken sailor, buying up every warehouse it could find and trying to "Whydontchajust" them into detention centers? Well, now they're trying to un-whydontchajust 'em (and pin the blame on Kristi Noem). One last thing to stow away for the weekend: the next blossoming scandal has dropped! Trump's looking to exploit LA28 Olympic organizers' need to stay on "the government's" good side by squeezing them for some kind of quasi-affiliated, pre-Olympics golf tournament at his LA club. That's not even a thing! But neither is remaining president while suffering from degenerative dementia.

Senior Federal Judge Brinkema in her new Order about the “weaponization fund” declared, in effect, that Acting AG Todd Blanche continued unwillingness to testify under oath and “put anything in writing” about the Fund actually supports her view that the fund is not “dead” but that Trump and Blanche still want to revive it if they can get away from Court oversight. Popok explains that Judge Brinkema's order saying that she does not and cannot trust Blanche or the DOJ is extraordinary, as he explains what happens next.

A federal judge blocks Trump's plan to create a federal voting database designed to help states purge voter rolls, finding the effort unlawful because it relied on sensitive and private information, including Social Security data, and caused erroneous voter removals. At the same time, the Supreme Court allows an Eighth Circuit ruling to stand that effectively strips private individuals and organizations of a key tool for enforcing the Voting Rights Act, leaving voters in several states soley dependent on Trump's DOJ to protect their voting rights.

In this episode, Drew, Tom, and Ryan dig into the leftward lurch of the Democratic Party, unpacking the DSA wave behind Mamdani's New York sweep and what it means when self-described communists start winning the safest Democratic seats in the country. The conversation traces how populism is fueled by economic anxiety, why both parties keep racing to the extremes, and whether finding the way back to the middle is even possible anymore. From there, they get into the hard economics: why socialist and communist policies historically break the economy, the calorie-storage origin of the social contract, the freeloader problem that sinks societies, and the real fight over wages, corporations, and whether companies like Walmart and Amazon are the villains people think they are. They take on Trump's threat to sic the DOJ on big oil for price gouging, why government price controls always fail, and how the OPEC cartel and regulatory capture are the actual problems behind what you pay at the pump. The discussion turns global with a hard look at USAID, the claim that foreign aid has been quietly funding NGOs and destabilization movements abroad, Japan dumping US treasuries amid its liquidity crisis, and the financial repression playbook Washington may use to inflate its way out of a crushing national debt. They weigh in on Congress voting to curb hostilities with Iran and what it means for negotiating power. Finally, the episode goes deep on one of the most important debates of the next decade: a Michigan city council banning the pride flag, Muslim immigration and assimilation, whether Islam has had its reformation, separation of church and state, and the candid clash over whether America is truly a Christian nation or simply shaped by Christian values. Whether you're here for sharp political analysis, hard economic truth, or a deeper look at the values shaping society, this episode offers a nuanced, unflinching take on how today's choices will define tomorrow.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In breaking news, the Trump Administration, its DOJ and its Homeland Security Department have moved one step closer to the possibility of being found in Criminal Contempt and someone going to jail, as the US Court of Appeals/DC has agreed to the urging of 174 Former Judges, and have tossed a prior opinion by a Trump dominated panel to block the trial judge's criminal contempt proceedings and investigation, and will hear the case by all 11 judges of the Court instead. Popok explains how this case started and the implications of the En Banc ruling up to the US Supreme Court. Americans United will keep fighting for freedom without favor - equality without exception.

Today's Headlines: Anti-ICE protesters in Texas were sentenced to between 50 and 100 years in prison after a judge stacked consecutive sentences for each count — normally they'd run concurrently — in what was explicitly viewed as a test case for how courts will handle dissent against the Trump administration, and separately the DOJ indicted 15 Minnesota protesters for "violently opposing federal law enforcement" by trying to block ICE arrests, so the message is clear. The Washington Post dropped a blockbuster investigation revealing that Tulsi Gabbard's political career was effectively run by her cult leader guru Chris Butler, who emailed her directives from a special address telling her what policies to support, how to behave on television, and writing her tweets down to the word and exact time to post. Ukraine, meanwhile, is winning the intelligence war against Russia using an underground network of "vidmas" — female honey pots drawn from Ukrainian folklore — to locate Russian troops for drone strikes, and separately knocked out power to half of Russian-occupied Crimea.  On the Iran war beat, the Senate passed a war powers resolution to prevent further military action in Iran on its tenth attempt — ten! — with four Republicans joining Democrats, Fetterman voting for the war, and Mitch McConnell still missing. In a rare bipartisan effort, Congress also passed a housing bill banning private equity from buying more than 350 homes at once and relaxing local building regulations, which won't fix the housing crisis immediately but is technically something. In other news,  Foreign hackers from Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea are infiltrating American homes through smart devices and cheap consumer gadgets like digital photo frames to steal data. Also, the Trump administration installed AI surveillance towers around the reflecting pool in the rain — which refilled the pool they had just drained — and put up chain link fences around the national monument, classy. Finally, SpaceX's stock is already down 45% from its all-time high less than two weeks after its IPO, and the company has already issued $25 billion in bonds despite just raising $75 billion, which is not a great sign.

Gavin Newsom and his wife are currently under investigation by the Department of Justice in a serious state fund scandal. Allegedly, Newsom transferred millions to charities operated by his wife, creating an obvious conflict of interest and funding Left-wing organizations that keep the Newsoms in power. While Newsom claims the investigation by Trump's DOJ is law-fare, the real law-fare may have occurred during Joe Biden's presidency. “Now there's no cover, no exemption and now you're going to face scrutiny.”

   The NFL sent a letter to gambling quarterback Brendan Sorsby letting him know there would be no NFL Supplemental Draft this year and they wished him the best for his future.  It may be the first time anybody has stood up to the talented player and it's likely the best thing for him.  There was no way the NFL wanted this off season saga.  Good for them.    Meanwhile, the NCAA votes to change the rules of eligility and it's exactly the model President Trump put in an Executive Order on April 7.    A star tight end not named Kelce is all up the kitchen of NFL owners who seem to have enough money for grass fields for FIFA but not for NFL players.  We'll tell you who he is.    Is it the first policy difference between VP Vance and Secretary Rubio as they are likely to both want to be America's next president?  JD is handling the Iran negotiation and according to a report, that's how Marco wants it.  You want to hear this.    US manufacturing is at a five year high, the DOJ charges 455 scammers that have been stealing healthcare money from the government.  And in our Final Final, Space X has fallen back to earth.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, Ben Ferguson fills in for Mark. America must prevail in the ongoing global AI race to prevent China from dominating and using AI to subtly spread propaganda on issues like taxes, censorship, drugs, abortion, and socialism, potentially shaping generations. News Guard is a pro-censorship group hostile to conservatives that blacklists right-leaning outlets, while rating Chinese Communist Party state media like China Daily as far more reliable than conservative sources. By licensing its biased ratings for AI training and supervised learning, News Guard aims to steer AI toward leftist-approved information and suppress conservative viewpoints, amplifying radical propaganda risks if America loses control of AI development. Also, the FBI, under Director Kash Patel, is actively fulfilling President Trump's campaign promise to combat waste, fraud, and abuse while draining the swamp by targeting criminals. The agency has conducted violent crime operations resulting in numerous arrests, illegal firearm seizures, and drug takedowns, alongside sentencing child predators. This marks a shift from prior administrations' use of the FBI for political censorship, to now focusing on real crimes. Meanwhile, Gov Gavin Newsom is a prime example of entrenched corruption. There's a DOJ investigation into Newsom and his wife Jennifer's finances, nonprofit ties, taxes, and business dealings. Newsom might prioritize avoiding jail over a 2028 presidential run, while DOJ is following the money.  Later, a Biden-appointed federal judge in D.C., blocked the Trump administration from using a program to verify citizenship and more quickly remove foreign nationals from state voter rolls. The ruling is activist judicial interference that prioritizes illegal aliens over the law requiring elections to be reserved exclusively for American citizens, enabling voter fraud as part of a Democratic open-border strategy to flood the country with illegal immigrants, secure their votes through benefits, and fundamentally transform America. Finally, despite Iranian threats and a Saturday proclamation closing the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israel's actions against Hezbollah, tankers continue moving through the waterway. CENTCOM stated Iran does not control the strait, confirmed ongoing traffic with 55 merchant ships transiting and over 17 million barrels of oil reaching global markets, lowered the risk advisory to moderate, and affirmed U.S. forces are monitoring to ensure agreement compliance.

There's a lot on the docket today. To pull apart the Iran “deal” framework, Mary and Andrew are joined by Tess Bridgeman, an international law expert who served as a legal advisor in the Obama administration through the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. Tess lays out how President Trump's 14-point memorandum of understanding differs from what was brokered in 2015, and what to watch for as negotiations continue. Before she joins, the co-hosts begin by analyzing several examples of what Mary calls the Trump Justice Department's "consistent effort” to avoid judicial review: their refusal to put into a sworn declaration that they won't move forward with the “Anti-Weaponization” fund and a motion to dismiss a Clean Air Act violation lawsuit against Elon Musk's xAI data center in Mississippi. They also tackle a few instances where, contrastingly, the government has positioned itself “on the offense” this week, including an indictment of 15 protesters on a conspiracy charge against ICE and the DHS' intent to build a border wall through a holy landmark atop Mount Cristo Rey in New Mexico.
