Warner Bros Discovery's board rejected Paramount Skydance's $108.4 billion hostile bid on Wednesday, saying it failed to provide adequate financing assurances. The board said it found Paramount's offer "inferior" to the merger agreement with Netflix.The House Judiciary Committee is questioning former special counsel Jack Smith behind closed doors on Wednesday. Smith's deposition is regarding his two prosecutions of President Donald Trump over alleged mishandling of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort and actions challenging the results of the 2020 presidential election. Smith has continually denied that his work was politically motivated and has said that he is willing to testify publicly.

This Day in Legal History: Gregory v. ChicagoOn this day in legal history, December 10, 1968, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Gregory v. City of Chicago, a case involving the arrest of civil rights demonstrators under a local disorderly conduct ordinance. The demonstrators, led by comedian and activist Dick Gregory, had peacefully marched from Chicago's City Hall to the home of Mayor Richard J. Daley to protest school segregation. Though the march itself remained nonviolent, an unruly crowd of onlookers gathered, prompting police to demand that the demonstrators disperse. When they refused, Gregory and others were arrested and later convicted of disorderly conduct.The key legal issue before the Court was whether the demonstrators' First Amendment rights had been violated when they were punished for the hostile reactions of bystanders. In a per curiam opinion issued the following year, the Court reversed the convictions, holding that the peaceful demonstrators could not be held criminally liable for the disruptive behavior of others. Justice Black, concurring, emphasized that the First Amendment protects peaceful expression even in the face of public opposition or discomfort.The case is a critical reaffirmation of the “heckler's veto” doctrine — the principle that the government cannot suppress speech simply because it provokes a hostile reaction. It underscored the constitutional duty to protect unpopular or provocative speech, especially in the context of civil rights protests. The Court's decision also reinforced the due process requirement that criminal statutes must be applied in a way that is not arbitrary or overbroad.Gregory v. City of Chicago remains a foundational case in First Amendment jurisprudence and protest law, balancing public order concerns against the fundamental rights of assembly and expression.The Trump administration's proposed repeal of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) definition of “harm” could significantly weaken protections for imperiled species in federally managed forests, particularly in the Pacific Northwest. The change would limit the ESA's scope to cover only direct physical injury to species, excluding habitat destruction from regulation. Environmental groups argue this could devastate species like the northern spotted owl and marbled murrelet, both of which depend on old-growth forests increasingly targeted for logging under recent federal mandates. Legal experts warn that without habitat protections, ESA enforcement becomes largely ineffective, as species cannot survive without suitable environments. The rollback is expected to reduce permitting requirements for developers and extractive industries, a move welcomed by business groups but opposed by conservationists.The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service initially defined “harm” in 1981 to include habitat degradation, but now argues that interpretation overextends the ESA's intent. Logging has already surged in owl and murrelet habitats, especially in Oregon, with timber sales up 20% in 2025. Population declines among spotted owls—down 70% since 1990—are linked to habitat loss and competition from invasive barred owls. Critics of the repeal emphasize that previous conservation plans, like the 1994 Northwest Forest Plan, successfully slowed species decline by curbing old-growth logging. Industry groups argue the ESA has been “weaponized” to block necessary forest management and wildfire prevention. Meanwhile, lawsuits are brewing on both sides: environmentalists are expected to challenge the rollback, while timber interests seek to overturn broader habitat protections.Trump's Changes to What Harms Species Adds Risk in Logging AreasThe U.S. Supreme Court is preparing to hear a case involving Joseph Clifton Smith, an Alabama death row inmate whose death sentence was overturned after a federal court found him intellectually disabled. The dispute centers on how courts should interpret multiple IQ scores and other evidence when determining whether someone meets the legal criteria for intellectual disability. This analysis is critical because, in 2002's Atkins v. Virginia, the Supreme Court held that executing individuals with intellectual disabilities violates the Eighth Amendment's ban on cruel and unusual punishment.Smith, now 55, was sentenced to death for the 1997 killing of Durk Van Dam during a robbery. His IQ scores have ranged from 72 to 78, but the lower court applied the standard margin of error, concluding his true score could fall below 70. The court also found substantial, lifelong deficits in adaptive functioning, including challenges in social skills, independent living, and academics. These findings led the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold the decision to set aside his death sentence.Alabama officials argue the courts erred by evaluating Smith's IQ scores collectively rather than individually. The Supreme Court previously asked the 11th Circuit to clarify its reasoning, and the court responded that it used a holistic approach, incorporating expert testimony and broader evidence of disability. Now back before the Supreme Court, the case could refine or reshape how courts nationwide assess intellectual disability in capital cases. A ruling is expected by June.US Supreme Court to weigh death row inmate's intellectual disability ruling | ReutersJack Smith, the former special counsel who led federal prosecutions against Donald Trump, is launching a new law firm alongside three other high-profile former prosecutors: Tim Heaphy, David Harbach, and Thomas Windom. All four attorneys have extensive backgrounds in public service and were involved in major investigations into Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election and mishandling of classified documents. The new firm, expected to begin operations in January, will offer full-service legal work, including litigation and investigations, with a mission rooted in integrity and zealous advocacy.Heaphy, who previously served as the lead investigator for the House committee probing the January 6th Capitol attack, is leaving his position at Willkie Farr & Gallagher to help found the firm. That firm had drawn criticism for its dealings with Trump but has defended its actions. The Justice Department and members of the new firm declined to comment on the launch.Smith had dropped the Trump prosecutions following Trump's 2024 election win, citing the DOJ's policy against prosecuting sitting presidents. Trump's administration has since condemned those cases, firing multiple DOJ and FBI officials and claiming political bias. Smith maintains the investigations were legitimate and nonpartisan. He is expected to testify behind closed doors before the GOP-led House Judiciary Committee next week.Trump prosecutor Jack Smith to launch firm with ex-Justice Department lawyers | ReutersThe U.S. Justice Department has announced new federal charges against Victoria Eduardovna Dubranova, a Ukrainian national accused of aiding Russian-aligned cyberattack groups targeting critical infrastructure. The latest indictment, filed in Los Angeles, links Dubranova to the group NoName057(16), which prosecutors say has carried out hundreds of cyberattacks globally, many aimed at essential services like food and water systems. These alleged actions are said to pose serious national security risks.Dubranova had already been extradited to the U.S. earlier in 2025 to face charges related to another Russian-backed hacking group known as CyberArmyofRussia_Reborn (CARR). She now faces conspiracy charges in both cases and has pleaded not guilty. Trials are scheduled for February 2026 (NoName) and April 2026 (CARR). Prosecutors allege both groups receive financial backing from the Russian government, though the Russian embassy has not commented on the case.The Justice Department emphasized that it will continue to pursue cyber threats tied to state-sponsored or proxy actors. The U.S. State Department is offering up to $10 million for information on NoName operatives and up to $2 million for tips on CARR affiliates.Justice Department unveils new charges in alleged Russia-backed cyberattacks | Reuters This is a public episode.

Democrats are rightfully panicked over their chances in the midterms and for lots of reasons. But Trump targeting the heart of their fundraising money-laundering service is cause for alarm.The backlash against ActBlue didn't come out of nowhere. In early 2025, a joint interim staff report from several House committees — including the House Judiciary Committee, the Committee on House Administration, and the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform — laid out serious allegations. The report claimed ActBlue had made its fraud‑prevention standards “more lenient” not once, but twice in 2024 — even while internal documents acknowledged that both foreign and domestic fraudulent actors were exploiting the platform.

At the forefront of these concerns is a demand described by Raskin and Garcia as a "blatantly illegal" attempt to secure $230 million in taxpayer money. This sum, they report, is being sought by former President Trump from the Department of Justice as compensation for previous federal investigations, including the probe into alleged Russian interference and the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case. In an October 23rd, 2025 letter, Raskin, the Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, and Garcia, Ranking Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, urged Trump to abandon this plan, labeling it an "outrageous shake down" and "theft" from the American people. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-stories--4814524/support.

On Thursday's Washington Times Front Page: Congressional Democrats are rebuffing Republican alternatives to extending enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies that are set to expire at the end of the month, the House Judiciary Committee has subpoenaed testimony from special counsel Jack Smith, and more.

A recent executive order entitled “Fighting Overcriminalization in Federal Regulations” and two congressional proposals: the Count the Crimes to Cut Act and the Mens Rea Reform Act (also known as the default-mens-rea proposal), all have highlighted long-standing discussions on federal overcriminalization. These initiatives were spotlighted during the May 7, 2025 hearing of the House Judiciary Committee. Join us for a panel discussion that will consider whether these reforms can meaningfully address the problem of a sprawling federal criminal code—one that may, in some areas, lack clarity and undermine individual liberty by exposing the public to ill-defined or overly broad criminal liability.Featuring: John G.

It is election day for Prop 50 in California, Virginia's gubernatorial race, New Jersey's gubernatorial and NYC's mayoral race. President Trump did a tele townhall for Virginia and New Jersey as a final push to get the Republican candidates over the finish line. Congressman Jim Jordan, chair of the House Judiciary Committee is here to fill us in on recent developments on the Obama-Biden government weaponization. James Comey most certainly lied before Congress as new evidence has emerged. John Solomon revealed emails that show Comey new his aides were talking to the media and he was fully prepared to be working under president-elect Hillary Clinton. Jack Smith is trying to dictate his terms with Congress in how he is willing to appear before lawmakers. Rep. Jordan is calling for a deposition that would allow a long-form interrogation of Jack Smith to get the information the American people deserve. Arctic Frost is the most extensive government weaponization action ever taken and Pam Bondi is saying people will be held accountable. Congressman Jordan has referred former CIA Director John Brennan for criminal prosecution to the DOJ for lying to Congress about the infamous Steele Dossier. Brent Buchanan is here to give us insight on what to expect in tonight's elections. We will be covering it live with special guests as results come in right here on the Sean Spicer Show!

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss the US response to the disaster in Jamaica in the wake of Hurricane Melissa, and whether the Trump Administration will redeploy naval assets in the Caribbean currently dedicated to drug interdiction in order to provide humanitarian aid to the island. They also discuss the latest revelations surrounding Operation Arctic Frost, the FBI investigation into alleged interference in the 2020 election by Donald Trump and his associates. The House Judiciary Committee reports that more than 160 Republican operatives and lawmakers were targeted by the FBI as part of the investigation. Then, they talk about the House investigation into former President Joe Biden's mental acuity and use of the autopen, including news that Biden's chief campaign strategist Mike Donilon's testimony that he would have received a $4 million bonus if Biden were reelected, on top of $4 million in salary. And finally, the guys chat about the latest in the redistricting wars, including Maryland Democrats' decision not to pursue redistricting in the state, a setback in Virginia for Democrats, and new polls that show Prop 50 in California is likely to win in next week's statewide election.

In 2016, Jamie Raskin was elected to Congress from Maryland just as Donald Trump was first elected president. Raskin, a former constitutional law professor, and Trump, a real estate developer who flouts rules and shatters norms, have been locked in a struggle ever since.When Congress impeached Trump in 2021 for inciting an insurrection, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi tapped Raskin to be lead impeachment manager, essentially Trump's chief prosecutor. He subsequently served on the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol. Raskin is now the Ranking Member of the powerful House Judiciary Committee and has been a vocal adversary of the Trump administration. In the past few weeks, he has accused U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Krisi Noem of “unlawfully detaining U.S. citizens,” demanded that Trump explain “a blatantly illegal and unconstitutional effort to steal $230 million from the American people” and denounced “military-style tactics” in Chicago. Jamie Raskin represents Maryland's 8th Congressional District, which borders Washington, D.C. He has authored several books, including the bestseller “Unthinkable: Trauma, Truth and the Trials of American Democracy,” a searing exploration of the death of his son and the struggle to defend democracy under Trump. I spoke with Rep. Raskin on Tuesday as the government shutdown approached the one month mark.

In a shockingly brazen move, President Trump is demanding that the Justice Department pay him $230 million stemming from certain federal actions against him. Representative Jamie Raskin, the ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, sent a scalding letter to the White House demanding all internal communications on this shakedown. What struck us was the letter's forceful indictment of Trump's corruption and criminality: It denounced Trump's “blatantly illegal and unconstitutional effort to steal $230 million from the American people” and his “outrageous and shocking” effort to “shake down” the Treasury, labeling this straight-up “theft.” There's much more, and it made critical legal points as well. We talked to the University of Michigan's Leah Litman, author of Lawless, a book on the Supreme Court. We discuss Raskin's letter, the legal nitty-gritty of Trump's heist, how it exemplifies the MAGA movement more broadly, and how the Supreme Court brought us to this dangerous moment.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

Rep. Mark Harris, freshman Republican Congressman from North Carolina's 8th district and a member of the House Judiciary Committee, the Committee on Education and Workforce, and the House Committee on Agriculture, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss the ongoing government shutdown, what it means for everyday Americans, and how his constituents are responding to the shutdown. Harris also explained why he decided to run for Congress as a newcomer to Washington and what he hopes to accomplish. He reflected on the tragic killing of Logan Federico and her father's passionate vow to seek justice, and outlined legislation he has introduced aimed at curbing crime by cracking down on repeat offenders who are too often released under Democrat-backed policies.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- On Wednesday, Vice President JD Vance delivered remarks from Concord, North Carolina where he addressed the attack on an ICE facility that occurred earlier in the day, condemning the violent act and imploring Democrats to stop with over-the-top, divisive rhetoric. 6:15pm- In her latest article for The New York Post, reporter Isabel Vincent documents how Democrats have purposefully “distorted” Charlie Kirk's words. You can read the article here: https://nypost.com/2025/09/23/us-news/charlie-kirks-words-are-being-distorted-and-weaponized-against-him-heres-what-he-really-said/. 6:20pm- While appearing on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow, former Vice President Kamala Harris was asked to clarify an excerpt from her new book, “107 Days,” in which claims she chose not to select Pete Buttigieg as her 2024 running mate because he is gay. Harris denied the allegation—but then backtracked and bizarrely added that she couldn't pick Buttigieg since his sexual orientation posed a campaign “risk.” On Wednesday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent—who is openly gay—responded to Harris's statement by explaining: “you wouldn't pick Pete Buttigieg because he might have been the worst Transportation Secretary in history. She judges him on his identity, his sexuality… let's look and see whether he did a good job. Let's look at merit, and I can tell you, on merit he's a failure. And on merit, she's a failure.” 6:30pm- According to early reports, Jimmy Kimmel's return to ABC resulted in 6.2 million viewers—four times the size of his average audience. 6:40pm- Google Admits Censorship Under Biden: In a press release, the House Judiciary Committee writes, “Today, thanks to the oversight of Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), Google commits to offer all creators previously kicked off YouTube due to political speech violations on topics such as COVID-19 and elections an opportunity to return to the platform.”

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer held a joint press conference from the United Kingdom. Trump reacted to the U.K.'s decision to recognize a Palestinian state: "We have to remember October 7th—one of the worst, most violent days in the history of the world...I want an end. I want the hostages released...I have a disagreement with the Prime Minister on that score—one of our few disagreements, actually." 6:20pm- Earlier this week, FBI Director Kash Patel testified before the House Judiciary Committee where he answered questions about the Epstein files and operation “Artic Frost” —which, under the Biden Administration, targeted conservative leaning organizations like Charlie Kirk's Turning Point USA. 6:30pm- Tom Elliot's latest montage reminds us that Democrats are the party of censorship. His clip includes Jen Psaki, Tim Walz, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Kamala Harris, Dan Goldman, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Ketanji Brown Jackson. 6:40pm- Unbelievable: While speaking with Scott Jennings, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr said he may investigate “The View' next. Rich points out that Democrats will now undoubtedly go after conservative programming whenever they regain power. Republicans should be protecting speech, not actively seeking censorship. 6:50pm- According to a report from The Wall Street Journal, executives at Sinclair and Nexstar—which own more than 60 local ABC stations—decided to no longer air Jimmy Kimmel's show, leading ABC/Disney to cancel the program. The executives say they had no communication with the FCC prior to their decision.

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 banks
