The world of Donald Trump's legal battles has shifted yet again over these past few days, with courtrooms buzzing from Atlanta to Washington, D.C. and even all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court. Let me walk you through what's unfolded, because the headlines haven't stopped and the stakes keep rising.Just last week, Trump claimed victory after a court threw out a massive civil fraud penalty that was hanging over him. That multimillion-dollar judgment stemmed from years of litigation around alleged financial misstatements in his business empire. While Trump declared this a vindication, things remain anything but quiet. There are still plenty of legal clouds on the horizon—especially when it comes to criminal charges tied to the 2020 election.Let's zoom in on the federal election obstruction case, one of the country's most closely watched trials. Jack Smith—the special counsel with the Department of Justice—charged Trump with conspiracy to overturn his loss to Joe Biden. This all ties back to the January 6th Capitol riot, and the allegation is that Trump spread lies about election fraud to pressure state officials and even tried to get then-Vice President Mike Pence to reject the results. Trump pleaded not guilty, but the case became tangled in questions about presidential immunity. The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in early 2024 that Trump wasn't immune. He pushed it up to the Supreme Court, which decided in July 2024 that former presidents do have some immunity for their official acts, but not everything.Things took another twist when Jack Smith filed an updated indictment last August, only to later drop the charges in November after Trump won reelection—in part because as a sitting president, he'd be immune from prosecution on at least some charges. By January of this year, Smith issued a detailed report saying there was enough evidence to convict, but action has stalled.Meanwhile in Georgia, the election interference case has been bogged down by drama surrounding Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis—her personal relationship with a special prosecutor even led to her removal by a state appeals court last December. While Georgia's Supreme Court still has to decide if it'll take up an appeal on her removal, six counts have already been thrown out, and Trump still faces ten counts there. Whether that case goes forward during his presidency is completely up in the air.But Trump's legal teams aren't just fighting on criminal fronts. As of yesterday, the Trump administration jumped back into the Supreme Court ring, appealing a federal judge's order demanding that billions in foreign aid be paid out—foreign aid that was frozen by Trump's executive order back in January. Solicitor General John Sauer warned that if the court doesn't intervene, Trump's government will have no choice but to quickly spend billions they want to keep frozen under a review led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.That is the whirlwind—the cases are overlapping, the legal arguments are novel, and with Trump back in the White House, every trial is a political earthquake. For now, all eyes are on higher courts, and we're all waiting to see what the next headline brings. Thanks for tuning in. Come back next week for more updates.

Ryan reports on the investigation into Jack Smith, the prosecutor flagged as special counsel in multiple Trump prosecutions, the latest of the Trump objectors to be on the receiving end of DOJ scrutiny. Is it justified, or retaliatory? Additionally, Trump went ahead with firing Lisa Cook from the Fed Board of Governors -- but is she, or isn't she? Either way, she's suing.
Donald Trump is forever threatening to prosecute his enemies: Hillary Clinton, Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Leticia James, Alvin Bragg, Jack Smith, Christopher Krebs, Miles Taylor, John Brennan, James Comey and on and on and on. Yet none of these individuals have been criminally charged. There are several reasons for the lack of criminal charges. One reason - there is a complete absence of evidence of criminal wrongdoing by the people on Trump's enemies list. Another reason - if Trump's DOJ tried to prosecute any of these people, they likely would have a strong "vindictive prosecution" defense. The most recent focus of Trump's revenge is Senator Adam Schiff. Glenn discusses why Sen. Schiff would have a strong vindictive prosecution claim in the event Pam Bondi was foolish enough, reckless enough, or unethical enough to bring criminal charges against Schiff.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Davy. T. and Jack Smith look over and discuss the weekend's happenings with Rangers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
It's been a dramatic and unprecedented week in American legal and political history, as former President Donald Trump once again dominates headlines with a whirlwind of court activity from coast to coast. The biggest shock came just days ago from New York's appellate court. After months of intense proceedings, this court tossed out the staggering $454 million civil fraud judgment that had loomed over Trump, his family, and his key business associates. Only a year ago, Judge Arthur Engoron had found that the Trump Organization engaged in repeated business fraud—everything from wildly inflating the square footage of Trump's Manhattan penthouse, to overvaluing Mar-a-Lago by listing it as a private family home instead of a social club. In scathing language, Engoron accused Trump and his team of showing “a complete lack of contrition and remorse,” insisting that the evidence of asset inflation by Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and Eric Trump “leap off the page and shock the conscience.” Trump, for his part, railed against what he called a politically motivated attack, declaring himself “an innocent man” during a fiery closing statement last year and insisting that New York Attorney General Letitia James was motivated by political ambition.But this week, that enormous financial threat disappeared in a legal instant, as the appeals court found critical fault with the earlier decision and threw it out. Trump quickly celebrated the turnabout, telling supporters and reporters, “They stole $550 million from me with a fake case—and it was overturned. They said this was a fake case.” Yet, the court left in place some restrictions on Trump's business leadership, reminding everyone that the legal saga isn't truly over.The twists don't end in New York. On the federal front, the story of Trump's alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election continues to evolve. The criminal case, once overseen by Special Counsel Jack Smith, had charged Trump with conspiracy to overturn his defeat and for actions leading up to the January 6th Capitol riots. The case set a historical precedent: never before had a former president faced criminal indictment for acts committed in office. Battles over legal immunity wound up before the U.S. Supreme Court, which in July 2024 ruled that former presidents do enjoy “some immunity” for official acts. In a practical sense, this suggested that prosecuting a president—current or former—would always be a labyrinthine challenge.Then, as 2024 drew to a close and Trump secured re-election, Jack Smith dropped the prosecution, citing presidential immunity for a sitting president. Smith's final report left no doubt, though—the evidence, he argued, would have warranted conviction if the case could proceed. Meanwhile, in the Georgia election interference case, the prosecution found itself mired in controversy when Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was disqualified due to personal entanglements, while Trump continues to face counts that legal observers admit may languish unresolved during his new term.Out west, a quieter but significant university lawsuit against Trump presses on, with hearings and deadlines marking the calendar, but these cases remain largely on the periphery compared to the headline-grabbing criminal and civil actions swirling around Donald Trump.I want to thank you all for tuning in—this has been a whirlwind of courtrooms, controversy, and history in the making.

In just the last few days, the legal tides for Donald Trump, the former President and current political heavyweight, have shifted in dramatic ways, pulling millions of Americans back to the edge of their seats. Let me take you there. Yesterday, in New York, the state appeals court rocked the headlines by throwing out the massive $454 million civil fraud judgment against Trump, his family, and his business empire. That judgment originally came out of a three-month trial in 2024, where Judge Arthur Engoron found Trump liable for a decade of business fraud, saying he'd grossly inflated his net worth to land better deals. The details, at the time, were damning: the judge accused Trump of overstating the size of his penthouse and misrepresenting his Mar-a-Lago estate—not as a social club, which it is—but as a private home. Engoron was unsparing, describing the fraud as offenses that 'leap off the page and shock the conscience.'Yesterday's appeals court ruling wiped out the financial penalty but left the underlying finding of business fraud in place. Still, Trump celebrated it as a rare victory in a marathon of courtroom battles while New York's Attorney General Letitia James promptly announced she'll be appealing, doubling down that Trump's conduct can't simply, in her words, 'disappear by judicial pen stroke.' News outlets like ABC News and Click On Detroit both underscored the stakes—it's a major win for Trump, but not an acquittal.Meanwhile, Trump's legal calendar stretches well beyond Manhattan. Consider his federal election obstruction case, shepherded for months by Special Counsel Jack Smith. Smith charged Trump with conspiracy to overturn his 2020 defeat, including his role in the January 6th attack on the Capitol. Trump pleaded not guilty, but the legal twists were dizzying. A Supreme Court decision in July 2024 said ex-presidents have 'some immunity' for official acts while in office, but the story didn't end there. After Trump won reelection, Smith dropped the charges, declaring a sitting president immune from criminal prosecution. Smith's own report insisted there was enough evidence for conviction, but the case remains in limbo—its future uncertain without precedent and shrouded in constitutional debate.Georgia's case against Trump, calling into question his attempts to pressure officials there, has been just as turbulent. After scandal around District Attorney Fani Willis was revealed—specifically, her relationship with a special prosecutor she'd hired—she was removed from the case by a state appeals court. Willis is appealing, and the Georgia Supreme Court has yet to decide if they'll take up the matter. As of January, only ten counts remain against Trump there, while six others were dismissed.Talk about a whirlwind. Trump is racking up both setbacks and victories—yesterday saw fortune swing to his side in New York, even as long legal shadows linger in Georgia and Washington, D.C.Thanks for tuning in and following these pivotal moments together.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, NY AG Letitia James has been subpoenaed by the Justice Department as part of a grand jury investigation by the Albany US Attorney's Office, focusing on her $454 million civil fraud case against former President Donald Trump. This is fantastic; she's been politicizing her office for a long time. Jack Smith, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton along with Smith are all being looked at. This is equal justice, not retribution. Also, historian Andrew Roberts discusses how Winston Churchill, long criticized by the left, is now also a target of disdain from the far-right podcasters, ‘influencers' and their guests, challenging the established narrative that the U.S. and U.K. were morally justified in defeating the Third Reich. Later, Trump brokered a historic peace deal between Azerbaijan and Armenia, who have been at war for 35 years. The President also facilitated ceasefires between Congo and Rwanda, Cambodia and Thailand, and India and Pakistan. Efforts are underway to negotiate a Russia-Ukraine deal, with a meeting planned, though concerns remain about Putin's reliability, given his history of breaking agreements. Afterward, On Power explains that John Adams warned that democracies can become tyrannical without just laws, representation, divided powers, private property rights, and a virtuous populace. Liberty, as outlined in the Declaration of Independence, includes unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Thomas Jefferson defined liberty as unobstructed action within the bounds of others' equal rights, emphasizing just laws to maintain order, though noting governments naturally encroach on liberty over time. Influenced by Locke, Jefferson saw law as a tool to promote freedom. Finally, Rep Bryon Donalds calls in to explains that he reintroduced the DC CRIMES Act to assert congressional control over Washington, D.C.'s sentencing policies, prohibiting local officials from altering sentencing laws and limiting leniency for young offenders. Law and order needs to be restored. He also explains that if NYC elects Zohran Mamdani if would be worse than Bill de Blasio. Mamdani is good on TikTok but he's an economic illiterate.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – A grand jury in South Florida examines new evidence in the Russia collusion hoax, with figures like James Comey, John Brennan, and Jack Smith under scrutiny. Recent revelations suggest the intelligence community changed assessments in 2016, raising questions about DOJ motives. I explore how the Mar A Lago raid and classified materials fit into this ongoing legal drama...
It's August 6, 2025, and these past several days have felt like a relentless ride on the legal rollercoaster that is the ongoing saga of Donald Trump's court trials. Just this week, chatter around Trump's name in courtrooms from Manhattan to Atlanta has heated up again, and the energy outside those courthouses is as buzzing as ever. Let me walk you through where all the high-stakes proceedings stand, and how Trump—now back in the White House—remains a central figure in the courtroom drama that continues to grip the nation.First, New York. The city's legal powerhouse, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, made history last year by securing Donald Trump's felony conviction. Back on May 30, 2024, a jury found him guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records, stemming from hush money payments and bookkeeping maneuvers during his first presidential run. But what turned more heads in January 2025 was the sentence. Justice Juan Merchan handed Trump an unconditional discharge—which means no jail time, but the felony conviction remains on his record. Even with Trump now serving as president again, the legal and political weight of being the only U.S. president ever convicted of a felony still looms large over his administration. Protesters and supporters alike continue making their presence known along Centre Street, where the courthouse became a national stage.Down in Florida, federal prosecutors faced a stunning twist in what was billed as the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case. Last July, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the entire indictment against Donald Trump. Special Counsel Jack Smith, who had charged Trump with more than 30 counts of mishandling national defense information and several counts of obstruction, suddenly saw his case collapse over a controversy about his own appointment and funding. Although Smith appealed, by the end of January 2025 the Department of Justice had withdrawn all appeals—effectively ending federal prosecution in that venue, at least for now.Meanwhile, Fulton County, Georgia remains a focal point of public interest, as Trump and a cohort of alleged co-conspirators face charges connected to alleged interference in the 2020 election. The sheer number of defendants and legal maneuvers has kept this case from reaching trial quickly, but it's set to escalate in the coming weeks. Observers in Atlanta watch for the next moves from District Attorney Fani Willis, whose office charges Trump and others with racketeering and other election-related offenses.While those three criminal trials dominate headlines, there's more just beneath the surface. Federal courts in Washington, D.C. have paused most proceedings as higher courts continue to hash out Trump's arguments that he's immune from prosecution for acts taken while president—a fight reignited by a Supreme Court decision just days ago, sending questions about presidential immunity back to the lower courts. That pause means, for now, any trial regarding Trump's actions leading up to January 6 remains at a legal crossroads, adding yet more uncertainty to the picture.From Manhattan to Miami and Atlanta to Washington, the narrative of Trump in court remains ever-evolving—a mix of sharp legal arguments, unexpected dismissals, and the ceaseless spin of political consequence. As the country watches, the weight of these court proceedings shadows the highest levels of government.Thanks for tuning in to this week's recap. Don't forget to come back next week for more.

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

The investigator is now being investigated. Former Special Counsel Jack Smith, who led two of the four criminal cases against then former President Donald Trump, is under scrutiny over allegations he was politically targeting the President. James Trusty, former federal prosecutor and former Trump attorney during the Jack Smith investigations, joins the Rundown to discuss the latest investigation. Home price listings have reached a new high, over $435,000 for the median U.S. home, according to the National Association of Realtors. As housing sales slow, it's one of the things on President Trump's mind when he emphasizes the need for interest rates to come down. Real estate broker and star of 'Million Dollar Listing New York,' Kirsten Jordan, joins the show to discuss rising mortgage rates, the financial temptation to rent, and why younger buyers are facing issues which older generations did not.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 1: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: The Jobs Report will now be handled by the same guy who keeps score when Trump plays golf. But first, the unexplained move of Ghislaine Maxwell from near Alligator Alcatraz to Club Fed was just beginning to calm down when Trump detonated on Lenard McKelvey (political commentary name Charlamagne Tha God). All Charlamagne had done was to go on Fox News and claim to Lara Trump “I think that traditional conservatives are going to take the Republican Party back. I think there’s a political coup going on right now in the Republican Party that people aren’t paying attention to… we have the opportunity to have, like, a huge reset.” Trump has never known when to leave bad enough alone, but this time he just hit the side of the hornets’ nest with his tie. Called him “racist sleazebag… low IQ individual… has no idea what words are coming out of his mouth… knows nothing about me… this dope.” So now millions of people who DIDN’T know an often conservative, Trump-accepting-if-not-supporting African American was describing a Republican Palace Coup AGAINST TRUMP OVER EPSTEIN… have THAT new Trumpsteen tendril to ponder. Let’s sort this out. Somebody had to change Maxwell’s status as a registered sex offender to get her transferred to an all-women, all-white collar criminals, minimum security facility. She might no longer BE a registered sex offender; that could be a free sample offered by Trump if she’ll lie for him. The move to the cushier camp could be ANOTHER free sample. Or to make it easier for her to suffer rapid unscheduled disassembly. Also there’s a Trump cover-up OF The Epstein Files, and a Trump cover-up OF HIS OWN NAME IN the Epstein Files, and a Conservative Coup Against Trump OVER The Epsteen files, and the unexplained cushy new home for Epstein’s co-rapist. Oh and the true Orwellian shooting of the statistical messenger. But - you'd forgotten, hadn't you - he's always done this. He did this most infamously as Covid started. B-Block (30:17) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: There's little left for Andrew Cuomo. Apparently that includes flat out making up a story that mayor-to-be-Zamdani has never had a job before. Ryan "Who Put That Porn On The TV Monitor In My Office During The State Education Department Executive Meeting" Walters of Oklahoma doubles down. And the Republicans sure know how to sell American cars: with a picture of a car made in Soviet Russia in 1970 being sold by a Trump that looks like he was made in 1870. C-Block (40:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The teachers of Hackley School in Tarrytown, New York are legendary. Nineteen of them there I graduated fifty years ago were still there the day I gave the Commencement Address thirty years ago. But now we may have lost the last of the greats, at least of that era. Gerry Murphy was the math teacher with empathy. He once recognized he had hit "the math wall" - he recognized I had. If he hadn't, I'd still be there failing that class for the 51st straight year. Gerald Murphy, R.I.P.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Merit-based hiring is making a comeback.

This happens as the Trump administration moves to investigate key figures involved in the disproven Trump–Russia narrative going back to the 2016 election.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

As Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs go into effect, a federal appeals court is deciding whether a bulk of Trump's tariffs are even legal. Neal Katyal joins The Weekend to discuss the legal challenge brought against the president's ability to set tariffs.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, the Marxist Islamists are a growing caner within the Democrat party. In On Power, Mark explains that the American Marxists use deceptive language and class warfare to manipulate, treat people as dupes, and control economic and social rights through government rather than unalienable ones. Marxism prioritizes raw power over egalitarianism, creating a dictatorial nomenklatura class. American Marxists view rights as government-assigned economic and social entitlements rather than God-given, using propaganda (e.g., social justice) and counterrevolutionary tactics against the Constitution, family, and capitalism to seize and perpetuate power via an administrative state and judiciary. The clash between Founders' individual rights and Marxist-derived ones will shape whether America remains a constitutional republic or devolves into authoritarianism, as social/economic rights inevitably shift power to government, eroding freedoms and risking tyranny. Later, there's a difference between having a different opinion on policy with the President and politically stabbing him in the back. There are self-proclaimed influencers and narcissists align more with figures like Bernie Sanders and AOC. They falsely claim credit for Trump's election victories, the MAGA movement's growth, and support among diverse communities like Latinos, Blacks, Jews, women, blue-collar workers, and unions. Trump's 77 million voters, not these opportunists, are the true force behind his success. Afterward, the Department of Justice has launched an official investigation into special counsel Jack Smith, who led the federal prosecutions against Trump related to the 2020 election interference and classified documents cases. This is necessary retribution against a weaponized law enforcement. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
