Host Tara covers three major developments breaking across the national and local stages. First, she dives into the fallout from the House Judiciary Committee hearing where ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones repeatedly invoked her Fifth Amendment rights over an alleged 38-million small-dollar foreign donation "smurfing" operation. Next, Tara analyzes a breaking Truth Social post from President Donald Trump explicitly stating that the US plans to strike Iran and assume total control of Kharg Island and its energy infrastructure, matching his strategy in Venezuela. Finally, she confronts South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster's inaction on illegal immigration following a tragic local vehicle accident that killed two young boys on the Asheville Highway. Tara contrasts South Carolina's approach with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's aggressive expansion of 287(g) federal deputy powers, which has yielded over 25,000 arrests under Operation Tidal Wave. > ActBlue investigation, Regina Wallace-Jones, Trump Iran strategy, Kharg Island, South Carolina illegal immigration, Ron DeSantis 287g, Operation Tidal Wave, campaign finance fraud, independent political commentary
Victoria Taft deconstructs a week of absolute systemic madness. First, we head to the nation's capital where Jim Jordan and the House Judiciary Committee drop a massive bombshell: a superseding indictment and testimony alleging the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) literally paid over $4 million to manufacture hate groups, buy KKK robes, and bankroll the coordinators behind the infamous 2017 Charlottesville riots.Next, we dive deep into the deliberate structural layout turning West Coast voting systems into a permanent progressive playground. Then, a quick Iran SITREP reveals how a cutting-edge autonomous drone boat engineered by a former Navy SEAL pulled off a cinematic rescue of two U.S. Army Apache pilots in the Strait of Hormuz. Finally, we look at "Epstein Thursday" with newly unsealed deposition transcripts from Pam Bondi and Harmeet Dillon, exposing raw congressional grandstanding, and a voluntary appearance by Bill Gates that turned into a total Capitol Hill circus.
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, voters in Maine have spoken. Liberal upstart Graham Platner won Maine's Democratic Senate primary on Tuesday night, defeating Maine Gov. Janet Mills weeks after the more establishment-backed pick ended her campaign. The Associated Press called the race soon after polls in Maine closed at 8 p.m., where voters in the state are not only weighing in on one of the nation's most significant Senate races but also on a comeback attempt for a controversial former governor and a contest to decide the next governor that features several famous names. Also a Collin County jury has sentenced Karmelo Anthony to 35 years in prison after he was found guilty of murder in the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old Memorial High School student Austin Metcalf during a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas / Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham squeaked out a win Tuesday night in a crowded primary race for the Republican nomination in South Carolina / During a House Judiciary Committee hearing attacking the Southern Poverty Law Center, Democratic Rep.

Seth analyzes the House Judiciary Committee’s examination of the conduct of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) today, where the organization's head was questioned about its labeling of pro-life groups as hate groups. This leads to a broader discussion on the dangers of labeling and the importance of nuance in our conversations about complex issues. We’re joined by Don Spini and Logan Marcus, Esq. from Sun Valley Wealth. Producer David Doll references Al Haig’s gaffe as Secretary of State during the assassination attempt on President Reagan in 1981. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week on In A Pickle, we start with a major update on Terry Rozier. Last week we talked about the bribery allegations surrounding the former Hornets guard, and now an arbitrator has ruled that Rozier violated his NBA contract with the Miami Heat and must forfeit a significant portion of his $26.6 million salary from the 2025-26 season. While the exact amount remains unknown, the ruling found he breached his contract. Miami was required to continue paying him during the process, but it appears much of that money will be heading right back. We also discuss the changing court restrictions involving Heat and Hornets personnel.Then we revisit Floyd Mayweather's lawsuit drama. Former manager Jona Rechnitz is calling the lawsuit "fraud" and "nonsense," claiming he has text messages, photos, and videos proving Mayweather knew about the jewelry being pawned and where the money went. Rechnitz also addresses the mysterious jet allegations, saying the funds were used to pay off a multi-million-dollar loan attached to the aircraft. His biggest claim? That Mayweather is facing serious financial problems and is lashing out at those closest to him.We also discuss NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell declining to testify before the House Judiciary Committee regarding media rights deals and what that decision could mean.News: Former NBA player and longtime Bulls broadcaster Stacey King has passed away at age 59 following a reported fall at his home. A private jet scheduled to transport Yadier Molina and his family crashed in the Dominican Republic after declaring an emergency shortly after takeoff. Both pilots were killed. Nicole Brown Simpson's sister is calling on the NFL to retire O.J. Simpson's number 32, saying the number remains triggering nearly 32 years after the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. Brandon Aiyuk reportedly has an arrest warrant stemming from a misdemeanor speeding case tied to a video allegedly showing him speeding near Levi's Stadium. This Week's Biggest Pickle: Jonathan CooperDenver Broncos linebacker Jonathan Cooper earns this week's honor after a domestic dispute led to his arrest on two counts of domestic violence and one count of criminal mischief. According to reports, both Cooper and his longtime girlfriend, Jade Fiegen, were arrested following the incident. The allegations range from grabbing a phone and physical confrontation claims to accusations that Cooper threw Fiegen to the ground multiple times. Cooper has entered a not guilty plea, and both sides now face charges. The case heads to a motions hearing on July 6th, with a jury trial expected later in July. As always, we'll be keeping a close eye on the developments.
The Washington Stand's Casey Harper reports on the House Judiciary Committee hearing with the Southern Poverty Law Center, primary elections in four states, and an update in the Iranian conflict following a downed U.S. helicopter. Steve Daines,
Steve Marshall joins Greg commenting on Tuesday's House Judiciary Committee hearing on the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), and interim CEO Bryan Fair. Next Marshall shares about his office's Cease and Desist Letters sent to Mail Order Abortion Providers in California and new York.
In the most recent round of Epstein file disclosures and congressional activity, a **U.S. lawmaker has publicly asserted that a woman seen in still-released photos of Prince Andrew — shown beneath or in very close proximity to him in images sourced from Jeffrey Epstein's New York residence — was a verified sex-trafficking victim connected to Epstein's network. That claim was made during a House Judiciary Committee hearing where the images were discussed, with the woman's face redacted under federal victim-protection rules; the lawmaker argued these visuals, now tied to trafficking, should have prompted legal action against Andrew at the time. Although the Department of Justice has maintained there's not enough evidence to charge Andrew and he has denied wrongdoing, the sharp political pressure and suggestion that the woman was trafficked under the federal Victims Trafficking Protection Act mark a significant escalation in public scrutiny of his ties to Epstein.Separately, police in the U.K. are now assessing new allegations stemming from the newly released Epstein documents, which include communications indicating that Andrew and Epstein continued to correspond after his 2010 conviction and that Epstein may have supplied women — some later described as trafficking victims — to him at various residences. The files also contain email exchanges that appear to corroborate the authenticity of the infamous photo with Virginia Giuffre (contradicting earlier claims by Andrew and associates that it was fake), and raise questions about Andrew's behavior after his official role as U.K. trade envoy. Buckingham Palace has stated it will support law enforcement assessments, and members of the royal family, including Prince William and Kate, have publicly expressed concern over the ongoing revelations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Woman in ex-Prince Andrew photo was Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking victimBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
An ICE whistleblower reveals a secret memo where DHS lawyers say agents can arrest people in their homes without a warrant. The Fourth Amendment says otherwise! And the Supreme Court's conservatives were extremely unimpressed with Trump's plan to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook on Truth Social. We'll break down Wednesday's oral argument in detail but first, we've got approximately one million ... DOCKET ALERTS (Dun dun DUNNNN): Former Special Counsel Jack Smith testified before the House Judiciary Committee. Watch it for yourself here. The Justice Department arrested three people in relation to the protest on January 18 at Cities Church in St. Paul. Nothing has appeared on the docket, but the DOJ claims to have charged them under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act of 1994, meant to protect women seeking abortion care. The Eighth Circuit administratively stayed District Judge Katherine Menendez's preliminary injunction barring DHS goons from brutalizing protesters. A jury in Chicago took just three hours to acquit a man of trying to hire someone to murder CBP's head thug Greg Bovino. Don't drunk text! Donald Trump's latest trollsuit targets JP Morgan Chase and its CEO Jamie Dimon. It's filed in state court in Miami and seeks $5 billion for tortious debanking. Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson secured a standstill order barring the government from looking at the computers and hard drives it seized from her house in Virginia as part of its investigation into classified leaks by government contractor Aurelio Luis Perez-Lugones. The Fifth Circuit, sitting en banc, reheard a challenge to Louisiana's HB71, which required every public school classroom to display the Ten Commandments. Background here. Judge Paul Engelmayer rebuffed a request by Reps. Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna to enforce the Epstein Files Transparency Act and order the government to disclose all materials on Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Remember this next time you hear some rightwing pundit railing against "activist judges." And we bid a fond farewell to Lindsey Halligan, who finally quit trying to pass herself off as US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. Well … fond-ish. After getting benchslapped by a federal judge and seeing her job posted online by the chief judge in EDVA, she finally took the hint.

Episode 157 | DP & McGhee return with another episode exploring the intersection of sports, media, intellectual property, and business. Before welcoming a leader from one of the world's most influential brand management companies, David and Tim tackle several major stories shaping the sports landscape from championship season to labor negotiations and league governance.
On Friday's Mark Levin Show, an Iran deal is not the answer. The enemy cannot be trusted; they are terrorists who have lied, cheated, and violated every agreement for 47 years. Their 7th-century Islamist fundamentalist ideology makes honoring deals with the West impossible, as they are driven by a death cult to spread revolution rather than obligations to the “Big Satan.” There is no proof the deal will contain Iran, and the terrorist regime will not comply long-term, especially after President Trump leaves office. Also, the House Judiciary Committee released a memo detailing the Biden-Harris administration's misuse of taxpayer dollars through USAID, the State Department, and other agencies to fund anti-Netanyahu NGOs and radical anti-Israel protests, some with ties to terrorist organizations. The Democrat Party is aligning with Islamists, Marxists, Qataris, Iranians, Turks, and Chinese Communists in efforts against Israel. Later, Canada's socialist healthcare system now provides assisted suicide with same-day appointments. This system, which Bernie Sanders wants to import to the US, makes death easy and cheap while treating care as a rationed resource, akin to Soviet breadlines. "Free" universal healthcare means paying in time and lives. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

This lack of opposition gives a sad face to Progressive Fascist Democrat Representative Jamie Raskin, Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, who has rushed in with an estrogenically hysterical and largely fantastical amicus brief asking the D.C. Circuit to appoint adversarial counsel to fight the dismissal. In response, Proud Boy defendant Zachary Rehl has filed his own counter argument, pro se, and my buddy Bill Shipley has filed his own counter argument in defense of his client Oath Keeper Robert Minuta. Rehl's argument comes across as personally compelling, while Shipley brings the technical legal expertise one would expect of a career DOJ prosecutor who went on to defend more than 90 January 6 defendants.We'll break down both of those in today's show!Join me LIVE at 11 AM ET!Episode #1303.
Our guest today is AZ State Representative Quang Nguyen. Representative Nguyen is an Arizona State Representative for Legislative District 1 and Chair of the House Judiciary Committee, where he has earned the nickname “The Bad Bill Shredder” for blocking unconstitutional legislation and defending Arizona's Article 2 Section 26 protections. #1) Arizona's budget negotiations are underway right now. What are the biggest battles happening behind the scenes, and what should taxpayers understand about what's at stake? #2) Democrats (and even some Republicans) continue pushing new gun control proposals each session. What are some of the biggest threats you're seeing this year, and how important is it to have strong leadership standing in the gap? #3) You're currently in Kentucky helping raise money for the Republican Victory Fund. Why, in your estimation, is maintaining the Republican majority in Arizona so important heading into November 2026? #4) The current AZ Governor, Katie Hobbs, is a Democrat and is known as “The Veto Queen.” You've said Republicans must win back the Governor's office if Arizona wants to become the most Second Amendment-friendly state in the nation. What policies and protections become possible with conservative leadership statewide? #5) What successes have you had with bipartisan legislative efforts? #6) How do people follow you and support your work?

The Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act in Louisiana v. Callais, delivering what Marc Elias calls the worst voting rights ruling in modern memory.

Jamie Raskin, ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee.Together they break down the Callais ruling, the Supreme Court's pattern of dismantling voting rights, the threat to Black and Latino representation in Congress, and the real reforms that could turn this around.

Today's Headlines: Kash Patel is having a rough week — Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee sent him an alcohol screening questionnaire asking how many drinks he has per day and how often he can't remember the night before.. On the Iran front, the "ceasefire" is doing ceasefire things: Iran seized two more ships and fired on three others, though the White House says it doesn't count because they weren't American or Israeli ships — so apparently it's only a war if we say so. Believe it or not, a War Powers resolution failed for the fifth time, with the Senate voting 51-46 to reject. The Secretary of the Navy was also ousted — not a huge loss given he was a campaign donor with no military experience who appeared on Epstein's flight logs — but perhaps not ideal timing during an active naval conflict. Elsewhere in chaos, Georgia Rep. David Scott passed away at 80, making him the fifth member of Congress to die in the past year and a half, tipping the House balance further toward Republicans; a Republican-appointed judge voided Virginia's newly approved redistricting map the day after voters approved it; Truth Social replaced CEO Devin Nunes — who was paid $47 million while the company earned $4 million — with someone described as a "corporate babysitter"; and condom prices are going up 30% because of the Iran war, which is somehow both funny and bleak. Climate scientists are warning that the Atlantic Ocean's key current system is closer to collapse than previously thought, and a UN report found that climate change is driving surges in gender-based violence globally. In tech and surveillance news, unauthorized users on a private Discord server guessed their way into Anthropic's restricted Mythos model; Madison Square Garden owner James Dolan is apparently running a full surveillance operation on fans, employees, and former players; Palantir's CEO dropped a 22-point manifesto about AI weapons and Silicon Valley's "moral debt"; and Sam Altman's eyeball-scanning startup falsely claimed a partnership with Bruno Mars, which Bruno Mars and Live Nation immediately denied.

Stay connected with us at americangroundradio.com, on Facebook, and Instagram. You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for April 21, 2026. We open with a bombshell — the Justice Department has indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center on 11 counts including wire fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering, alleging that the SPLC secretly funneled more than $3 million to white supremacist and extremist groups — the very groups they claim to be fighting. We dig into what this means, why the demand for racism has always outpaced the actual supply, how organizations like the SPLC have built entire fundraising empires off a defamation map that lists Catholic charities and Turning Point USA alongside the KKK, and why it's no coincidence that this indictment came almost immediately after Pam Bondi's exit and Todd Blanche's arrival at the DOJ. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, Florida Democrat Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick resigned from Congress minutes before the House Ethics Committee was set to determine sanctions against her — after being found guilty on 25 of 27 charges for stealing COVID relief money and funneling it into her own campaign. Then the House Judiciary Committee released a preliminary report on ActBlue showing that two employees took the Fifth 146 times in depositions, and that ActBlue deliberately weakened its own fraud prevention protocols twice in the run-up to the 2024 election — after which it reported record fundraising, including from donors in Brazil, Colombia, Iraq, Jordan, Myanmar, and Saudi Arabia. And Virginia voters are deciding whether to adopt a new congressional map drawn by Democrats to give them a 10-to-1 advantage in a state that votes Democrat by about 55% — not 90%. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson respond to a viral clip of UCLA football coach Bob Chesney asking his players if they know the name of the man who makes their omelets — and why every person on the support staff deserves to be known by name. We talk about what it says about a person's character when they take the time to learn the names of people who serve them, why Teri's father used restaurant behavior as a business litmus test, and what it means that people who have worked in the Trump White House consistently say he knows not just their names but their kids' names and how their family is doing. In our Digging Deep segment, newly declassified documents obtained by Just the News reveal that U.S. intelligence warned in January 2020 that foreign adversaries had the capability to compromise America's voting infrastructure — and that both China and Iran did in fact penetrate voter registration databases in multiple states before the 2020 election. That information was suppressed until November 2021. When President Trump ordered it released in November 2020, the CIA refused the direct order. China didn't just hack the databases — they registered fake voters and sent fake IDs from China to match those registrations. We talk about what that means for the narrative that 2020 was the most secure election in American history, why losing trust in elections causes people to stop voting, and what has to happen before this country can restore confidence in its own electoral system. We also cover the Supreme Court ruling that $166 billion in tariff refunds must be issued to businesses — and point out that the consumers who actually absorbed those costs at the register will see none of it, because there was never a line-item tariff charge on your receipt. For our Bright Spot, Alan Dershowitz — lifelong Democrat, Harvard Law professor, Brooklyn-raised Jewish-American who has been a registered Democrat for 67 years — has officially switched his registration to Republican. He wrote an op-ed in the New York Times explaining why. One reason: the Democrat Party has become, in his words, the most anti-Israel party in American history. We talk about what it means when one of the most prominent Jewish legal minds in America concludes he can no longer stay. We also get into Miss Universe adding another biological male competitor — and ask the straightforward question of why the one competition specifically designed to celebrate women is being systematically redesigned to exclude them. And we close with Jamie Lee Mateus, a man who is admittedly a terrible painter, whose wife posted one of his bad family portraits as a joke — and who now runs a thriving side business called Terrible Art by Jamie Lee, completing hundreds of commissions for customers around the world.

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing in September 2025, Ranking Member Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) moved to subpoena the CEOs of four major banks—JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Bank of New York Mellon, and Deutsche Bank—for “suspicious activity reports” these banks allegedly filed related to Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. The motion claimed that roughly $1.5 billion in transactions tied to Epstein had been flagged as suspicious.However, in a narrow vote (20-19), Republicans on the committee led by Chairman Jim Jordan moved to table the motion—effectively killing it—so the subpoena did not proceed. Only Rep. Thomas Massie broke ranks with his party to support the subpoena. The blocking of the subpoena came amid broader efforts by Democrats to force more disclosure about Epstein's financial transactions through banks, as well as the handling of Epstein files by law enforcement.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:GOP shuts down House Democrats' move to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein banksBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The House Judiciary Committee just dropped a 47-page report calling the National Residency Match Program a hiring monopoly that harms patients, doctors, and the public — and the surgical community is talking. In this episode, Dr. Patrick Georgoff is joined by BTK surgical education fellows Dr. Emma Burke and Dr. Agnes Prem Kumar, along with special guest Dr. Brian Carmody (aka the Sheriff of Sodium), a pediatric nephrologist and one of the sharpest analysts of medical education policy working today. Together, they break down the report's central claims: that the NRMP exercises monopolistic control over residency hiring, suppresses resident wages, and strips trainees of bargaining power — and they separate what the report gets right from where its rhetoric badly outruns its evidence. From the history of Section 207 and the antitrust lawsuit that nearly brought down academic medicine, to the real economics of GME funding, resident unionization, and what a match-free world would actually look like — this is the context you need to understand one of the most consequential debates in graduate medical education in years. Don't miss Dr. Carmody's six-part YouTube series on the match, linked in the show notes.Congressional Report: https://judiciary.house.gov/media/press-releases/new-report-exposes-how-medical-residency-hiring-monopoly-harms-patients-andThe Match 6-Part Video Series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLc36yFQWkuG1sXk62A3zeRWB8aoK5SISPThe Sodium Sheriff Blog: https://thesheriffofsodium.com/***Fellowship Application Link: https://forms.gle/QSUrR2GWHDZ1MmWC6Please visit https://behindtheknife.org to access other high-yield surgical education podcasts, videos and more.

Julian Epstein, former Chief Counsel to the House Judiciary Committee, joins Brian Kilmeade to deliver a blistering critique of the current state of the Democratic Party. Epstein discusses why uniform opposition to the administration during a time of war is "existential" for Democrats and why the party's shift toward identity politics and the "Islamification" of its platform may be turning it into a permanent minority party.

The Center for Immigration Studies has released a new episode of its podcast featuring CIS experts Andrew “Art” Arthur and George Fishman, who reflect on their time working together on Capitol Hill, including their firsthand experiences on September 11, 2001, and the major immigration legislation that followed.The episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at how immigration laws are made. Arthur and Fishman recount the immediate aftermath of 9/11 as staffers on House Judiciary Committee and their roles in drafting legislation that helped reshape U.S. immigration enforcement, including efforts that contributed to the Homeland Security Act of 2002 and the breakup of INS into enforcement and service components within the new Department of Homeland Security.The discussion also explores contentious debates over criminal penalties, interior enforcement, and proposals that sparked nationwide protests in the mid-2000s. From the USA PATRIOT Act to the REAL ID Act of 2005, the episode highlights how national security concerns reshaped immigration policy and how some key recommendations, such as the creation of a biometric entry-exit system, remain unfulfilled decades later.Podcast host and CIS executive director Mark Krikorian also reminds listeners of today's International Network for Immigration Research (INIR) event (streamed live at noon ET) hosted by the Center. Panelists from CIS, NumbersUSA, FAIR, and the Budapest-based Migration Research Institute examine whether modern democracies can carry out large-scale deportations.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestsAndrew Arthur is the Resident Fellow of Law and Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies.George Fishman is a Senior Legal Fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies.Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

There is a growing call for Judge Cannon, Trump's handpicked judge in Florida, to either start contempt proceedings against the DOJ for releasing a memo about Trump's profit motive in hoarding top secret/classified documents, or for her to receive a judicial reprimand or be impeached if she doesn't. Popok takes a hard look at her order, the DOJ's violation it, and the calls led by Rep. Jamie Raskin, ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, for her to start contempt proceedings.

The House Judiciary Committee wants to change the US Attorney statute to say what Attorney General Bondi claimed it did in court. This would involve the Senate voluntarily surrendering their power to vote on nominees, so … lotsa luck. Back in New Jersey, prosecutors say they'll seek superseding indictments in cases with Alina Habba's name on them, to remove the stink of illegitimacy.The DOJ has quietly settled a trollsuit filed by red states and rightwing trolls, including Robert Kennedy, alleging social media censorship by the Biden administration. The Supreme Court already dropkicked this case once, so the parties agreed to simply declare victory and go home.And Sam Bankman-Fried finds new ways to piss off judges and be sooooo weird, this time with help from his mom.MAIN SHOW:The DOJ settled a bogus lawsuit filed by former national security advisor Mike Flynn. His malicious prosecution claims had already been tossed by a federal judge, but she let him amend his complaint again, and by then Trump was back in the White House. Is this a new template for MAGA criminals to back the truck up to the Treasury and start filling it with taxpayer cash? The January 6 defendants sure seem to think so!

House Judiciary Committee oversight hearings are intended to hold federal agencies accountable. But the latest session involving Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has become a flashpoint in the debate over immigration enforcement. While Noem received strong support from Republicans on the committee, Democratic lawmakers pressed her on several controversial issues, including the shooting deaths of two Americans during a federal operation and allegations that the Department of Homeland Security obstructed oversight investigations. USA TODAY National News Reporter Lauren Villagran joins The Excerpt to share her insights.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

Mea Culpa welcomes back our resident expert on the January 6th hearings, Norm Eisen. Eisen, is an attorney and author who has served in a broad array of government roles, including special counsel and special assistant to President Barack Obama for ethics and government reform — in that role Eisen was dubbed “Mr. No” and the “Ethics Czar” — well known for his tough anti-corruption approach to governance. As co-counsel on the House Judiciary Committee's first Trump impeachment — Eisen is active with the Brookings Institute and other groups working to expose the ways Trump and his cronies broke the law not only on January 6th but in their attempts to overturn the election as well. Michael and Norm dig deep into January 6th and the possible prosecutions coming.
In an excerpt from this week's Insider podcast episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss Attorney General Pam Bondi's testimony before the House Judiciary Committee about DOJ's handling of the Epstein files. In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss: – The Justice Department's failure to secure an indictment of a group of Democratic members of Congress over a video reminding military service members of their duty to refuse illegal orders; – The Trump administration's announcement that it is ending stepped-up ICE operations in Minnesota; and – The unsealing of an affidavit used to justify the FBI's search of an election office in Fulton County, Georgia, as part of the Trump administration's investigation into debunked allegations of election fraud in the county.

Elias also analyzes Attorney General Pam Bondi's cringeworthy performance last week before the House Judiciary Committee, the Justice Department's failure to secure indictments (at Trump's behest) of the half-dozen congresspeople who released a video reminding soldiers that they had no obligation to follow illegal orders, and the Republican push to enact Voter ID.

The recent House Judiciary Committee hearing featuring Attorney General Pam Bondi turned into a chaotic spectacle, with Democrats like Rep. Pramila Jayapal (Wash.) dramatically demanding that Bondi turn around and apologize directly to Jeffrey Epstein victims seated behind her, only for Bondi to dismiss it as "theatrics" and refuse outright. She relied on a bizarre "burn book" binder of prepped personal attacks on Democrats, flipping pages on cue from staff to hurl unrelated insults instead of answering straightforward questions, which one lawmaker mocked by begging her to find his own page.
