December 6, 2025; 8am: A federal grand jury dealt the DOJ a rare defeat this week when it failed to reindict New York Attorney General Letitia James. But a source tells MS NOW that the Justice Department could try to bring criminal charges of alleged mortgage fraud against James for a THIRD time. Plus, the DOJ is considering charging former FBI Director James Comey two weeks after the initial case was thrown out on the basis that Trump's interim US Attorney Lindsey Halligan was unlawfully appointed. Liz Oyer, former DOJ Pardon Attorney and Federal Public Defender, and Brendan Ballou, former Federal Prosecutor and former Lawyer with the DOJ National Security Division, join “The Weekend” to discuss.For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnow.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnowTikTok: @theweekendmsnow To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

A grand jury has rejected a new indictment of New York's attorney general, Letitia James. Over four years later an arrest has been made in connection with the pipe bombs placed outside the Republican and Democratic National Committees. And several countries are boycotting Eurovision next year over Israeli participation. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Democratic strategist Max Burns guest hosts. He talks about current news: the Supreme Court voted 6-3 to allow the Texas to move ahead with a highly gerrymandered district map for the upcoming midterm elections. The DOJ tried once again to indict NY AG Letitia James for mortgage fraud but the sitting Grand Jury said NOPE. Top DoD officials presented footage of a September attack on fishing vessels off the coast of Venezuela to members of the Senate Armed Services Committee, including the now-infamous second strike “double-tap” kill of what the white house says are narco-terrorists. And, the FBI arrested Brian Cole Jr of Virginia for allegedly planting the pipe bombs. Max then talks politics with Rick Smith who has been a voice for the working class and the labor movement for over 20 years, and his eponymous radio show has become a space where working folks can get their news, share their thoughts and build community and solidarity. And finally, he interviews Andrew Lownie who is a British historian and author. He has written books about the royal family, on the Duke of Windsor and his links with the Nazis, and on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, including his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A Los Angeles County grand jury has been hearing evidence in the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, whose remains were discovered in the trunk of singer D4vd's Tesla in September 2025. This is a major development — and in this video, I break down exactly what it means. The grand jury met for several days in mid-November, with Deputy District Attorney Beth Silverman — one of LA's top prosecutors for high-profile murder cases — calling multiple witnesses to testify. An LAPD detective has officially characterized this as "an investigation into murder." And according to law enforcement sources, D4vd is considered a suspect. ⚖️ What an investigative grand jury actually does and why this one matters

“What was said, when was it said, and who was observing the operation as it was ongoing?” These questions are top of mind this week for Todd Huntley, Director of Georgetown's National Security Law Program and a former active-duty Judge Advocate for the Navy. He joins Mary and Andrew to lend his unique expertise to what the Washington Post reported as a “kill them all” order from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. This order reportedly led to a second strike, killing two remaining survivors and, in Huntley's view, violating the laws of naval warfare and international law, which “give a protected status to shipwrecked personnel.” Mary and Andrew then take a moment to reflect on the tragic shooting of two National Guard members last week and an appellate court ruling affirming a lower court finding that Alina Habba's appointment as acting US Attorney in New Jersey was unlawful.Further reading: Todd Huntley's interview in The New Yorker: The Legal Consequences of Pete Hegseth's “Kill Them All” Order.

Amid an abundance of legal issues Mary and Andrew are keeping tabs on, this episode begins with the dismissal of the cases against both James Comey and Letitia James over the unlawful appointment of interim U.S. attorney Lindsey Halligan. The co-hosts work through the judge's decision before reviewing some of the procedural missteps made by Halligan in the Comey case. Next comes the news that the Pentagon is investigating Senator Mark Kelly over a video he and other lawmakers made assuring military personnel they are not obligated to follow illegal orders. As Andrew notes, “Isn't that the law? And isn't that what a president and the head of the Department of Defense want?” And last up, Andrew and Mary touch on a double standard over redistricting efforts, as the Justice Department sues California under a pretense of racial gerrymandering, while notably refraining from leveling similar challenges to Texas' redistricting plans. Further reading/watching:Here is the Washington Post piece Mary and Andrew referred to: White House blew past legal concerns in deadly strikes on drug boats.WATCH: Here is the video from Sen.

A day after the House passed a bill to order the Justice Department to release its Epstein files, Jon Herold, a QAnon promoter who broadcasts under the name Patel Patriot, seemed disappointed that more of Mr. Epstein’s crimes might be revealed. Facing a 30-day deadline to release the Epstein files, the Department of Justice has asked two judges in the Southern District of New York to authorize the release of grand jury transcripts.

On this episode of the Anthony On Air Podcast, we're tearing into the week's headlines like a pack of ravenous raccoons — so buckle up.First, the royal drama nobody asked for: Meghan Markle allegedly “caught stealing” (yes, really) — we dig into what this means, why it's resurfacing now, and what it says about celebrity, entitlement, and the 24/7 media garbage grinder.Then we shift gears to a darker corner: the Department of Justice reportedly trying to convene a grand jury over the Jeffrey Epstein case (again) — we break down what's new, what's repeating, and why it still matters.Next up: the laugh riot you didn't know you needed — the ranking (and controversy) of the Top 500 comedians. Who cracked the list, who got snubbed, and which jokes aged like milk.And because the world refuses to stop spinning: we're tracking a roster of bizarre, sad, and downright surreal side stories — from the legendary actor Udo Kier passing at 81, to Jimmy Cliff's death, to Usha Vance offering the “my-ring-was-in-the-dishwasher” excuse, to the mysterious cruise-ship death of Anna Kepner.All this while the oddly-named Department of Government Efficiency (yes, DOGE) quietly disappears/pulverizes itself.If you like your news with a little irreverence, a lot of skepticism, and zero sugar-coating — you're in the right place.Get more AoA and become a member to get exclusive access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOfx0OFE-uMTmJXGPpP7elQ/joinGet Erin C's book here: https://amzn.to/3ITDoO7Get Merch here - https://bit.ly/AnthonyMerchSubscribe to the Anthony On Air Podcast here:Facebook - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirFBYouTube - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirYTApple Podcast - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirAppleSpotify - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirSpotTwitter - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirTwitterInstagram - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirInstaTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@anthonyonairpodDiscord - https://discord.gg/78V469aV22Get more at https://www.AnthonyOnAir.com

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has filed a motion in federal court in the Southern District of Florida requesting that grand-jury transcripts (and related protective orders) from the investigations of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell be unsealed. The motion cites the newly enacted Epstein Files Transparency Act, which mandates the release of unclassified DOJ materials related to Epstein within 30 days, arguing that grand-jury transcripts should not be exempt from disclosure simply because of their status. The DOJ said it will make appropriate redactions for victim-identifying information and asks that any pre-existing protective orders be lifted so the records can be made public.In its filings, the DOJ highlighted that the transcripts in question stem from earlier investigations — including grand-jury sessions from 2005 and 2007 in Florida — and asserted that the public interest in transparency around Epstein's crimes and network is compelling. The motion requests an expedited ruling to meet the 30-day deadline set by the Transparency Act. At the same time, the DOJ acknowledges that the law does not explicitly mention grand-jury material, but argues that court precedent allows unsealing where justified and that the transcripts do not contain “new” information that would pose unusual harm, when properly redacted.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The criminal case against former FBI Director James Comey is one of the big-profile cases from the DOJ in recent days. The case alleges that Comey made false statements to Congress. But there has been a major procedural misstep, as the indictment was never presented to the full grand jury.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Anna Bower, Michael Feinberg, and Roger Parloff to talk through the week's big domestic news stories, including:“Diving Head First into the Shallow End of the Jury Pool.” A federal magistrate judge has concluded that the government may well have made substantial misrepresentations and other errors before the Grand Jury in the prosecution of former FBI director James Comey, and has ruled that Comey is entitled access to extraordinary discovery to make his case that these errors warrant dismissal, among other possible remedies. What does this ruling—which is now on appeal—mean for the Comey prosecution and for the Trump administration's other efforts to prosecute the president's enemies?“The Ep Files: Fight the Future.” Republicans in Congress are hotly divided on the question of the Epstein files. While some Republicans (along with many Democrats) have sought broader disclosures from the Justice Department, among other sources, Speaker Mike Johnson and others have thrown up roadblocks to relevant requests, in part out of apparent concern that they may contain damaging revelations about President Trump. But the White House did an about-face this week, switching to support legislation that would compel disclosure of the investigatory materials—clearing the way for it to move forward. What explains the switch in time? And where might it lead?“Pipe Dreams.” The right wing media outlet The Blaze released a bombshell report last week, indicating that they had identified a law enforcement and intelligence official as the likely perpetrator of the Jan. 6, 2021, attempted pipe bombing of the DNC and RNC headquarters in Washington, D.C.—a longstanding obsession in certain corners of the internet. But its claims were quickly rebuked by senior FBI officials, triggering a round of mutual incrimination and accusation. What does this tell us about the state of the investigation and the broader relationship between the Trump administration, law enforcement officials, and prominent portions of his support base?In object lessons, Anna revisits an older novel, echoed by some current events: Nora Ephron's “Heartburn.” Roger revisits the November 13, 2015, terrorist attacks across Paris, commemorating the event's 10-year anniversary with a recommendation of a video on Le Monde.

This past weekend — after months of deflection from the Trump administration — came a sudden tone shift from President Trump himself, who urged House Republicans to support a measure compelling the Justice Department to release the Epstein files. Mary and Andrew begin here, noting that Trump could just as easily release the files himself without a vote. Next, they review an order to release all grand jury material in James Comey's case, after the judge blasted the Justice Department for potential misconduct. And before wrapping up, Mary and Andrew head to the latest in the JGG case and Judge Boasberg's contempt proceeding, after a district court ruled to allow the case before him to proceed.  Sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts to listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads.

In an error filled “emergency filing” the Trump DOJ seeks to block the release of secret grand jury materials in the prosecution of Former FBI Director James Comey case, the files that according to one judge, demonstrate that Lindsey Halligan committed at least 2 cardinal violations of the US Constitution in her interactions with the Grand Jury, and findings that she likely misled or lied to another federal judge. Michael Popok explains that curiously, the filing IGNORES the lying and the constitutional violations completely and explains what will happen next with the District Court judge who will review the transcripts for himself.

Number One— President Trump said again in the Oval Office on Monday that he is willing to meet with Venezuelas dictator—to discuss an end to the drug cartels and the killing of drug runners—it may be a critical first step—   Number Two— The Judge in the James Comey case says federal prosecutors must turn over the Grand Jury records in the case—we will see if that happens or if the government files an immediate appeal—   Number Three— Just like I told you yesterday – this whole Democrat narrative trying to slime President Trump with the disgraced pedophile and child trafficker Jeffrey Epstein is once again falling apart—in spectacular fashion—

In breaking news, a Federal judge seems poised to disqualify Trump's hand-picked novice prosecutor, Lindsey Halligan, as having been illegally appointed, calling the indictments of NYAG Tish James and Former FBI Dir. James Comey into question as well. Michael Popok explains how Judge Currie was not happy that 2 hours of Grand Jury transcripts are missing and cornered the Trump team several times, including questioning if the DOJ agreed with Judge Cannon's decision in Trump's favor in the Mar a Lago case about special attorney appointment, questioning how Pam Bondi could have “ratified” by back dating a document filed with the Court if there was no transcript of what Halligan did in the last 2 hours?

“Leave aside the cruelty of not giving these funds out,” Andrew says, reflecting on the SNAP benefits case now before the Supreme Court. “What does it say that we're not prioritizing hunger as an issue?” Then, Mary brings listeners up to speed on the dizzying chain of events since Friday and where the SNAP case stands, even as the Senate and House appear to be moving towards reopening the government. And in honoring Veterans Day, Mary and Andrew dig into several issues affecting service members, including the latest filing in Trump v Illinois, and how to think about the term "regular forces", plus Judge Immergut's final order prohibiting the National Guard deployment in Portland. And finally, Just Security's co-editor in chief, Tess Bridgeman, joins to analyze what the law says— and doesn't say-- about blowing up boats in international waters without a clear justification or congressional authorization.Further reading: Judge Wolf's piece in The Atlantic: Why I Am Resigning.

A federal judge seems exasperated with Trump flunky Lindsey Halligan, who vindictively indicted former FBI Director James Comey at the insistence of Donald Trump. U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie who is litigating the legality of the Comey indictment - specifically Halligan's involvement in obtaining the indictment - previously ordered DOJ/Halligan to turn over all evidence from the grand jury proceedings. But Halligan failed to do so, only turning over the testimony of one witness who appeared before the grand jury. Accordingly, the judge has now issued an order directing Halligan "to submit, no later than Wednesday, November 5, 2025, at 5 pm . . . a complete transcript and/or recording of all statements made by the indictment signer (Halligan) to the grand jury . . .." Glenn describes the usual process for presentations to the grand jury and why Halligan's failure to provide everything the judge ordered previously smacks of an attempted coverup.

Federal prosecutors in South Florida are preparing grand jury subpoenas as part of an investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan.

The Supreme Court's landmark decision granting presidential immunity for official acts has reverberated in unprecedented ways since its issuance. One consequence, as Mary and Andrew note in their recent New York Times essay, is that rather than “preventing the weaponization of prosecutions, the court has unleashed it.” The co-hosts begin here, offering insights into the ongoing prosecutions of James Comey, Letitia James and the suspension of two assistant U.S. attorneys in DC. Next, they move to some updates on the National Guard domestic deployments, as several cases wind their way through the courts. And rounding out this episode, Mary and Andrew turn to the litigation around SNAP benefits and preview Wednesday's tariff argument before the Supreme Court.Further Reading:Here is Mary and Andrews' New York Times Essay: How the Supreme Court Paved the Way for Revenge ProsecutionsAnd as Mary and Andrew discussed, note the difference between the government's first Sentencing Memorandum in the Taylor Franklin Taranto case compared with the second Sentencing Memo.Want to listen to this show without ads?

Jim Comey alleges that the single FBI agent's testimony to the grand jury in his case was tainted by privileged information, and asks the court for the grand jury transcripts. Comey has also filed a bill of particulars asking the government to clarify the charges, and has filed a motion to dismiss under the Bronston literal truth doctrine.Two assistant US attorneys have been placed on administrative leave for referencing the January 6th attack on the Capitol and Donald Trump's Social post that led Taylor Taranto to President Obama's neighborhood with weapons.Three words in Letitia James' mortgage contract could tank Lindsey Halligan's entire case.Plus listener questions…Do you have questions for the pod?  Follow AG Substack|MuellershewroteBlueSky|@muellershewroteAndrew McCabe isn't on social media, but you can buy his book The ThreatThe Threat: How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and TrumpWe would like to know more about our listeners.

In breaking news, a South Carolina Federal Judge who will decide whether Trump's novice prosecutor Lindsey Halligan will keep her judge, has issued a devastating order against Halligan, calling her “the indictment signer” only and refusing to use her US Attorney title, and ordering that “all documents relating” to her “participation in the grand jury” be turned over to the Judge. Michael Popok explains why this is so damning as the Judge considers whether to bounce Halligan AND whether she will throw out the Former FBI Director James Comey and NY AG Tish James Indictment along with it.

The bulldozing of the East Wing of the White House late last week was shocking to much of the nation, Mary and Andrew included. They begin there with concerns, not only about preserving its rich history, but the ethical and legal questions that arise from the president using private donations to fund this ballroom build, and how the Anti-Deficiency Act might apply. Next, an update on National Guard deployments in the California case and the 9th Circuit's issue of a temporary stay in Portland as they consider an en banc review. And last up, the boat strikes keep coming in the Caribbean -- and now in the Pacific, as the president continues to escalate tensions. Mary and Andrew address the thorny legal issues at play when the U.S. military kills suspected traffickers in international waters.A note to listeners: Since this episode was recorded, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced another set of boat strikes in the Pacific ocean that killed 14 people. Further reading: Here is the Letter from several Democratic Senators raising concerns about donations to the ballroom that Mary and Andrew spoke about. Want to listen to this show without ads?
