We just got one heck of an Epstein files update. We know that state law enforcement authorities in New Mexico are now investigating Jeffrey Epstein's Zorro ranch. That is the scene of allegations of horrific crimes by Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and others, and it's good that the New Mexico law-enforcement authorities are FINALLY investigating. But the obvious question is: why wasn't the Zorro ranch searched by law-enforcement authorities when they searched Epstein's home in New York, when they searched his home in Florida, or when they searched his home on his infamous island?Well, we now know the answer to that question - why didn't they search the Zorro Ranch in New Mexico. Donald Trump's Department of Justice told the New Mexico law enforcement authorities to STOP INVESTIGATING! Glenn takes on this dramatic and deeply troubling new revelation.

Senate Bill 6346 pushes a nearly 10% tax on income above $1 million through the Washington legislature, sparking immediate opposition, legal questions, and a pending initiative campaign as Gov.

CDC field investigator Dr. Eric Linder arrives in a frozen Nebraska grain town to assess a fast-moving fever cluster, only to find the sick triggering synchronized images on every nearby screen. Phones, televisions, and laptops flicker with concrete corridors, unmarked soldiers, black hoods, zip ties, and briefing rooms no patient should recognize, while each recovered host remembers nothing. What begins as outbreak response turns into a claustrophobic blend of medical horror, surveillance nightmare, and buried government operations as the quarantine tightens, the town goes dark, and the footage grows harder to explain away. With the illness spreading beyond Delford's truck-stop corridor and official reports being rewritten in real time, Linder has to decide which facts still matter when the record itself is under containment. Cold, procedural, and deeply unnerving, this is rural sci-fi horror built from fever heat, static-lit screens, and the dread of institutions that know more than they admit.⚠️ Content Ownership NoticeAll stories, artwork, thumbnails, and animations featured on this channel are original creations of Galactic Horrors.

To be an attorney at the Department of Justice, you have to have a license to practice law issued by one of the 50 states or the District of Columbia. Against this backdrop, let's turn to the new reporting: Pam Bondi is trying to get rid of all of the ethical guardrails at the Department of Justice. First, she fired the head DOJ ethics attorney. Then she fired the head of the Office of Professional Responsibility - OPR - the organization that investigates allegations of misconduct by DOJ attorneys.Now Bondi is trying to violate states rights by seeking to prohibit state bar ethics offices from investigating attorney misconduct of lawyers who hold law licenses in their state. But here's the good news: there's an opportunity for we the people to weigh in, make our voices heard, and oppose this latest effort by Bondi to destroy ethical guardrails at the Department of Justice. Glenn sat down with former pardon attorney Liz Oyer to discuss this latest attempt by Bondi to destroy ethical guardrails at the DOJ.See the link below for how you can weigh in and register your opposition.To submit your opposition to this DOJ rule change: Regulations.govSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today's episode begins with a breakdown of the Justice Department's about-face on four cases brought after Trump targeted several law firms through executive action. As Mary and Andrew discussed last week – they initially dropped their appeal of the decisions against sanctioning these firms, only to reverse course the next day, topped off with a new court filing Friday appealing the rulings. Next, the co-hosts review a pair of decisions: one out of Minnesota's district court concerning the state's immigration surge, which determined the stopping and subsequent arrests of the case's plaintiffs was a result of racial profiling. The second decision comes from U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth, who ruled Kari Lake's oversight of Voice of America unlawful and illegitimate. Last up, Mary and Andrew detail Attorney General Pam's Bondi's proposed rule that would put any state complaint against a justice department lawyer on hold while the DOJ reviews it, essentially giving the department the power to hold these indefinitely if they so choose. Further reading: Here is Mary's recent piece on MS Now detailing the DOJ's shift on appealing several law firm decisions: What's exposed by the Justice Department's reversal on Trump's campaign against law firms. Every lawyer knows that the federal court rulings were correct and that the president's executive orders are legally indefensible.

Donald Trump's quest to prosecute his perceived enemies, isn't going so good for him. Remember when Donald Trump's Department of Justice filed motions to withdraw appeals they had filed in four cases Trump lost. Those cases involved Trump using executive orders to try to punish law firms that displeased him. Trump and his DOJ got crushed in all four cases, but his Department of Justice filed appeals.Well, then the DOJ threw in the towel, filing a motion to withdraw the appeals because they knew they didn't have a shot at winning.What happened next? Apparently, Donald Trump got wind of it and likely told Pam Bondi - 'nope, I am not gonna let you quit these cases or withdraw these appeals.' So like a good little flunky, Pam Bondi and her Department of Justice are now trying to take the towel back and revive the appeals that they told the court they wanted to withdraw.On the heels of that debacle, it looks like the DOJ has bucked Donald Trump again. Remember when Donald Trump wanted his DOJ to prosecute Joe Biden for using an auto pen? Here was the headline at the time: "Trump orders a probe into the Biden administration and its alleged autopen."The New York Times reported a new legal development on the Joe Biden/autopen front, "Justice Department, Under Pressure from Trump Fails to Build Autopen Case Against Biden. Prosecutors in the US attorneys office in Washington were unable to build a case, underscoring the department's increasing inability to follow through on the president's desire to indict his rivals."It sure looks like Donald Trump's DOJ leadership with Pam Bondi, Todd Blanche, and Jeanine Pirro - is crumbling. And it's looking more and more like Donald Trump's entire presidency is imploding.I sat down with former Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg to discuss how it's becoming clearer by the day that Trump's DOJ leadership is circling the drain.Find Dave on Substack: davearonberg.substack.comFind Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Thus far, Donald Trump has sent six military members - six of America's sons and daughters - to their death, in what is, by all rational accounts, an unlawful and unconstitutional war. And just so there's no mistake about the fact that we ARE in a war, Pete Hegseth just said at a press conference, "The terms of this war will be set by us." I just sat down with military law expert Dan Maurer. Dan is a law professor and retired Army LTC JAG officer. Dan taught constitutional law and criminal law at West Point, and was an instructor at the Army's Judge Advocate General's School in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Safety Coby Bryant, by some reports, could be set to return. How does Kam Curl's deal set the bar? And what would be the reasoning for keeping Bryant with Ty Okada playing well off the bench in his absence? Seattle reportedly called the Eagles about Jalen Carter, but what does it really mean?

Legal tampering is here. Recent history speaks The NFL legal tampering window opens in hours. The Detroit Lions have three recent free agency classes that frame expectations. The 2022-to-2023 line marked the pivot from rebuild to contender. The record since then shows real swings, timely hits, and costly misses. It also shows that the front office does, in fact, go after top-tier veterans. 2023 swings: one clear hit, several misses Detroit targeted premium talent among outside free agents. David Montgomery arrived as the No. 3 running back on the market and was paid the second-most at his position. He outplayed the higher-paid back and delivered strong production in Detroit. That was a clear win. Cam Sutton was the No. 3 cornerback on the board and commanded major money. The signing was graded as an A- at the time and was widely viewed as aggressive and on-target. It did not work. Beyond off-field problems, the on-field fit sagged, and Detroit overpaid for a corner who never synced with the scheme. C.J. Gardner-Johnson entered as the No. 3 safety and became the fourth-highest paid safety from that class. He brought tone and edge to the locker room, but the move failed, in part due to injury. He missed all but two games. Emmanuel Mosley, ranked eighth among cornerbacks, never got on the field because of injuries, though his deal was low budget. Marvin Jones returned in a fan-pleasing move but retired soon after. Jalen Reeves-Maybin also returned in that class. Those depth bets did not move the needle. 2024 outcomes: quiet headlines, subtle value DJ Reader was the fifth-rated interior defensive lineman and signed the fourth-richest deal among his peers. The move even drew an A+ grade at the time. Reader underwhelmed some fans on the stat sheet. The film told more. He kept linebackers clean and helped Aleem grow into a higher-impact interior presence. That value matters on early downs and in money downs alike. Kevin Zeitler arrived as the No. 10 interior offensive lineman in his class and outplayed at least eight players signed above him during his year in Detroit. Then he left for Tennessee on similar money. It stung because the team expected him back, but the one-year return was strong value for the cap dollar. What this pattern says about the next 48 hours Across 2023 and 2024, the Lions targeted players near the top of consensus rankings and paid near the top of market at select positions. They took calculated swings at cornerback and safety that missed, landed a back who fit, mined value on the interior of both lines, and absorbed injury risk on short-term flyers. The evidence is clear: Detroit signs players in free agency, aims high at priority spots, and lives with variance. With the NFL's window opening, expect targeted aggression, not inactivity. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #nflfreeagency #lionsfreeagencyhistory #bradholmes #djreed #djreader Learn more about your ad choices.

The U.S. has struck 3,000 targets inside Iran in just one week, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says the war effort is only beginning. With American and Israeli air superiority established, heavier conventional bombing campaigns may soon follow. Meanwhile, polling shows strong public support for the operation—as long as it stays short. But the political battle in Washington is heating up, with Democrats claiming the strikes violate the law while critics accuse them of hypocrisy dating back to the 2011 NATO intervention in Libya under Barack Obama. The debate raises a bigger question: who actually controls America's war powers? Summary: The United States has launched a massive opening phase in its conflict with Iran, striking more than 3,000 targets in the first week. According to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, the campaign is only getting started, with American and Israeli air forces now operating with overwhelming dominance in the skies. Military leaders say the next phase will involve larger conventional bomb strikes on strategic military infrastructure. While the risk of retaliation remains—especially through unconventional attacks—the administration argues the objective is clear: eliminate Iran's nuclear ambitions and cripple its ballistic missile program. Public support for the war currently sits high, with polls suggesting roughly three-quarters of Americans support the operation as long as it remains short and decisive. Meanwhile, the political fight in Washington is intensifying. Democrats claim the strikes violate congressional authority under the War Powers Act. But critics point to the precedent set during the 2011 NATO intervention in Libya, when the Obama administration conducted months of military operations without formal authorization. Legal scholars such as Jonathan Turley argue that historically, presidents have had the authority to initiate hostilities without a formal declaration of war. The debate highlights growing tensions between national security decisions and political divisions in Washington. Key Takeaways: The U.S. has hit 3,000 Iranian targets in the first week of fighting. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says the campaign is just beginning. U.S. and Israeli air forces now hold clear air superiority. Polls show strong public support—but only if the conflict stays short. Critics accuse Democrats of hypocrisy over war powers after the 2011 NATO intervention in Libya. Topic Tags: Iran War, U.S. Military, Middle East Conflict, War Powers Debate, Trump Foreign Policy
From contested UK cooperation in the Iran conflict to explosive domestic terrorism and unresolved Epstein case mysteries, today's episode dissects the chaos at home and abroad. President Donald Trump navigates allies' delays, military strategy, and geopolitical risk, while law enforcement and media misreport ISIS-inspired attacks in New York City. Plus, shocking DOJ revelations from the Epstein case highlight systemic failure. Episode Summary The United States' Iran operation sparks global and domestic controversies. The UK initially refused U.S. requests to use military bases for attacks on Iran, creating a diplomatic firestorm. Prime Minister Keir Starmer faced heavy criticism from Tony Blair and British media, reportedly prioritizing political survival and immigrant voting blocs over allied cooperation. The HMS Dragon deployment and RAF response highlight logistical delays caused by strict labor rules, raising questions about NATO and allied reliability. On the ground, the U.S. and Israel maintain overwhelming air superiority against Iran. President Donald Trump praises the campaign's effectiveness, with thousands of Iranian military targets already struck and ground invasions deemed unnecessary. Energy markets spike, but experts assert the oil price increase is temporary. Domestically, New York City faced terror threats when self-radicalized ISIS supporters targeted protests near Gracie Mansion, using IEDs packed with the volatile “Mother of Satan” explosive. Misreporting by mainstream media initially mischaracterized the attackers and their motives, obscuring the severity of the incident. Legal and political commentary highlights the disconnect between narrative framing and reality. Meanwhile, new DOJ documents on the Jeffrey Epstein case reveal suspicious behavior and cash activity by prison staff before his death, raising further questions about accountability and transparency in federal institutions. Key Takeaways UK initially resisted U.S. requests to use military bases in Iran; Starmer faces criticism from Blair and the British media. HMS Dragon and RAF responses delayed due to labor regulations; NATO reliability questioned. U.S. and Israeli air forces dominate Iranian skies; ground invasion unnecessary. Oil prices spike temporarily; short-term disruptions tied to fear, not supply shortages. ISIS-inspired IED attacks in NYC misreported by media; attackers targeted ideological opponents. DOJ files on Epstein reveal suspicious cash deposits and questionable guard behavior, sparking renewed scrutiny.

The U.S. has struck 3,000 targets in Iran in the first week, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says the campaign is just beginning. With U.S. and Israeli air superiority, heavier conventional bombing is expected as the mission aims to dismantle Iran's missile program and military leadership. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump says the war ends only with unconditional surrender. But that's not the only story: a terror incident near Gracie Mansion, media controversy, and sweeping government cuts from the Department of Government Efficiency are all fueling a massive political showdown. Summary: The United States has carried out an aggressive opening phase of its war campaign against Iran, striking roughly 3,000 targets in the first week. According to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, American and Israeli air forces now dominate the skies, allowing the next phase of the operation to expand into large-scale conventional bombing using heavy munitions. Support for the war among Americans remains high—polling suggests roughly 76% support the campaign if it remains short and decisive. The main goals being discussed include eliminating Iran's nuclear ambitions, destroying its ballistic missile program, and crippling its military leadership. President Donald Trump has been clear about the desired outcome: unconditional surrender or the complete dismantling of Iran's ability to wage war. Some political figures, including Lindsey Graham, are already speculating that geopolitical shifts could follow, including potential changes in places like Cuba. The debate in Washington has also reignited questions about presidential war powers. Legal scholar Jonathan Turley argues historical precedent supports presidential authority to initiate hostilities, while critics in Congress say the administration should have sought broader authorization. Meanwhile, controversy erupted in New York after an explosive device was thrown during protests near Gracie Mansion. Early media reports suggested one narrative, but later details pointed to suspects allegedly linked to extremist sympathies, intensifying political and media disputes. Beyond foreign policy, the administration's domestic agenda is also making waves. Data suggests the federal workforce has shrunk significantly under the government downsizing efforts led by the Department of Government Efficiency, part of a broader push to reduce federal bureaucracy. Key Takeaways The U.S. has struck 3,000 Iranian targets in the first week of fighting. Pete Hegseth says larger conventional bombing campaigns are coming next. Polls show 76% public support if the conflict remains short. Donald Trump says the war ends only with unconditional surrender. A terror-related incident near Gracie Mansion triggered media and political controversy. Federal workforce reductions tied to the Department of Government Efficiency are shrinking the size of government.

This week we welcome back Niki Black to unpack the findings from the newly released 2026 Legal Industry Report from 8am The conversation centers on a legal profession moving into a new phase of AI adoption, where individual lawyers are embracing general purpose AI tools at a striking pace, while many firms still lack even basic policies or training. Niki explains that this disconnect is especially visible among solo, small, and mid-sized firms, where limited resources often slow formal governance even as day-to-day use rises fast.A major theme of the discussion is the widening gap between personal experimentation and institutional readiness. Niki notes that lawyers are not waiting for permission, and many are already relying on AI to support research, drafting, and routine work. At the same time, firms are struggling to provide guidance, training, and guardrails. The episode highlights the growing risk of shadow AI in legal practice, especially when lawyers and staff turn to unsanctioned tools to keep pace with client demands. For smaller firms, the answer is not elaborate bureaucracy, but practical direction, clear expectations, and a recognition that even a modest policy is better than none.The conversation also turns to client expectations and the economic pressure AI is placing on the traditional law firm model. Greg and Marlene press Niki on whether firms are truly ready to move away from the billable hour as AI compresses the time needed to complete legal work. Niki argues that large firms face deep structural obstacles because compensation systems, staffing models, and internal economics remain tied to hourly billing. Still, she sees pressure building from in-house counsel, boutique competitors, and smaller firms that use technology to deliver comparable work at lower cost. The result is a market that may resist change, but not escape it.Another standout part of the episode explores how AI is reshaping access to justice. Niki points to the promise of generative AI as a force multiplier for legal aid lawyers and public defenders, especially when paired with trusted tools and better funding. She rejects the idea that technology alone will solve the justice gap, but makes a strong case that AI, combined with stronger institutional support, helps lawyers serve more people with better results. At the same time, the hosts and Niki acknowledge the risks of a two-tiered system, where wealthier clients benefit from high quality tools while vulnerable users face lower quality, error-prone outputs.By the end of the episode, the conversation expands from AI tools to a broader structural shift across firms, clients, and law schools. Niki sees the next three to five years as a period of deep change, where pricing, training, competition, and professional expectations all evolve at once. She also shares her own methods for keeping up, including RSS feeds, trusted blogs, and LinkedIn, with a few playful complaints about Substack making life more complicated. The episode leaves listeners with a clear message: the biggest issue is no longer whether AI will affect legal practice. It already is. The real question is whether the profession can adapt fast enough to manage the consequences wisely.Listen on mobile platforms: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | Substack[Special Thanks to Legal Technology Hub for their sponsoring this episode.] Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: Jerry David DeCiccaTranscript:

If you look really closely at Pam Bondi's Department of Justice, you can almost see it circling the drain. Yesterday, DOJ attorneys filed a notice with the DC Circuit Court of Appeals saying they wanted to withdraw the appeals DOJ had filed in four cases involving Trump's executive orders that were designed to punish law firms he didn't like. Trump's DOJ had lost all four cases, given that his executive orders were transparently unlawful and unconstitutional. Then today, in an extraordinary flip-flop, the DOJ said they wanted to withdraw their request to withdraw their appeals. In other words, after throwing in the towel, they told the court . . . they want their towel back. This horribly inconsistent and incompetent conduct makes clear that the DOJ is in disarray.Find Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
