A fiery breakdown of the latest political power struggle in Washington, highlighting Ed Martin's ousting, alleged massive fraud in federal payments, and Trump's strategic counter with rotating prosecutors to combat the deep state and swamp corruption.

As the deep state scrambles to maintain control, Trump counters with a rotating cast of aggressive prosecutors, including Ed Martin and Jeanine Pirro, to expose alleged federal fraud, government corruption, and swamp resistance. With Senate roadblocks and whistleblower revelations piling up, this high-stakes lawfare battle could define the next chapter of the Trump administration.

Maurene Comey, an assistant U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, has joined the federal prosecution team in the case against Sean "Diddy" Combs, who faces charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. Comey, daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, previously served as a lead prosecutor in the high-profile trial of Ghislaine Maxwell.Combs was arrested in September 2024 following a grand jury indictment. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges and remains in federal custody, with his trial scheduled to begin on May 5, 2025.The addition of Comey to the prosecution team underscores the case's significance, given her experience with complex sex trafficking prosecutions. Her involvement is expected to bring substantial expertise to the proceedings against Combs.Christian "King" Combs, the 26-year-old son of Sean "Diddy" Combs, has been served with legal documents at his father's Miami mansion. The lawsuit, filed by Grace O'Marcaigh, accuses him of assault, battery, sexual assault, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The alleged incident occurred in July 2022 aboard a yacht named Victorious, which was chartered by Diddy for a family outing. O'Marcaigh, a stewardess on the yacht, claims the event devolved into a "hedonistic environment" involving drug use and sex workers, leading to an increased workload and unwanted exposure to illicit activities.According to the lawsuit, Christian Combs exhibited inappropriate behavior towards O'Marcaigh, pressuring her to drink alcohol and becoming aggressive when she resisted. He allegedly grabbed her arm violently, preventing her from leaving, and made unwelcome advances. O'Marcaigh asserts that this experience caused significant emotional and physical distress, adversely affecting her career and personal life.

In and out of juvie and jail since childhood, Charles Manson learned guitar in prison from the last of the great Depression-era gangsters. He also made music industry connections in jail like the Rolling Stones' road manager. During the "Summer of Love", Manson bounced from prison and took his act to San Francisco, formed a drug-soaked sex cult, moved the whole Family to L.A., and before you could say “celebrity orgy,” he was hanging with Neil Young, the Mamas and the Papas, and the Beach Boys. Charles Manson was about to be the breakout star of 1969…at least in his own mind. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners and includes graphic depictions of violence.

Today, Hunter spoke with Professor Justin Murray about his recent law review article, Prosecutorial Reform and the Myth of Individualized Enforcement. On several past episodes, Hunter has explored the field of Progressive Prosecution. As he has uncovered, much of the push back to these types of prosecutors is their decision not to prosecute certain types of crimes. Today, Justin is here to show how that critique does not comport with the history of prosecution, and he asks us to rethink how we understand how Progressive Prosecution should/does operate in our society.   Guest Justin Murray, Professor of Law, New York Law School   Resources: Justin's Faculty Page https://www.nyls.edu/faculty/justin-murray/ Law Review Article https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4932729   Contact Hunter Parnell:                                 Publicdefenseless@gmail.com  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patron www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN Trying to find a specific part of an episode?

A version of this essay was published by news18.com at https://www.news18.com/opinion/shadow-warrior-beyond-lenient-laws-what-will-it-take-to-protect-indias-women-9023844.htmlAfter this fortnight, it is not hard to see why some are demanding speedy punishment, including automatic death sentences for severe crimes against women. To put it bluntly, the Indian State is letting rapists and murderers get away with their crimes against both grown women, and especially tragically, against little girls. This is a blot on humanity. There needs to be recourse. There has to be a severe deterrent, and men should quake in fear at the prospect of instant, fearsome retribution.The cry of anguish began with the extraordinarily brutal rape (suspected gang-rape) and murder of a 31-year-old doctor (revealed by her mother as Moumita Debnath) in the R G Kar Medical College Hospital in Kolkata on August 9th. As information trickled out, it became clear that she had also been severely tortured before being smothered to death. It is rumored that she had stood up to some important people and this may have been “punishment”.The immediate parallel was with the gruesome rape-murder of Girja Tikkoo in 1990 in Jammu and Kashmir, where she was gang-raped and then sliced alive in two, screaming in mortal pain, on a mechanical saw.There was also, in a hospital setting, the extraordinary case of Aruna Shanbaug, a 25-year-old nurse who was choked with a dog chain and raped by a janitor in a Mumbai hospital in 1973. She was brain-damaged and in a coma for 42 years, cared for by the nurses in the hospital until she died in 2015. Assaults on women staff in hospitals is especially ironic considering a recent finding that patients treated by female doctors have better outcomes possibly because of empathy.Then there was the 2011 case of Sowmya, a 23-year-old shop assistant traveling in an empty women-only coach in a train in Kerala. She was chased around the coach by a one-armed vagrant named Charlie Thomas alias Govindachami, who repeatedly bashed her head against the walls. He then pushed her off the train, raped her and beat her head in with a stone. The lower courts sentenced Charlie to death, but the Supreme Court commuted it to life imprisonment.Not about sexual crime, but about power over womenThis is not about a sexual crime, it is about something more vile and reptilian. It is about sadistically inflicting pain and humiliation, dominating women, exerting power over them. It is extreme misogyny, and is motivated by pure hatred, possibly intent on sending a message. It is also about “putting women in their place”, so that uppity females are “taught a lesson”.The rape-murder of “Nirbhaya”, later revealed by her mother as 22-year old paramedical student Jyoti Singh, in 2012 in Delhi, was similarly traumatic. Four of her assailants were executed after seven years, and one killed himself in jail, but the worst offender, who instigated the ramming of an iron rod into her genitals, was let go in 2015 on the flimsy reason that he was allegedly a juvenile. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal presented a sewing machine to the offender upon his release. There was also the 2016 case of Jisha, a 30-year-old law student in Kerala who was subjected to extreme violence, including disembowelment in her rape-murder. A migrant laborer was charged with the crime, and sentenced to death, which was upheld in May 2024 by the Kerala High Court. However, it is rumored that Jisha was the illegitimate daughter of a local bigwig, and that she was “punished” for demanding a share in his property. In Kerala again, there were the Walayar sisters, a 13 year old and a 9 year old, who were found hanging, two months apart, in 2017. The initial conclusion was ‘suicide', but after an uproar when postmortems confirmed sexual assault, the case was reopened. Several politically connected people were involved, whom the POCSO court acquitted. But the Kerala High Court ordered a retrial of the five accused, including a juvenile, and the case is with the CBI as of now. Every sinner has a future, maybe, but he denied his dead victim her futureThere was the startling “every sinner has a future” Supreme Court verdict of 2022 that commuted the death sentence of a rapist-murderer of a four-year-old child into imprisonment for 20 years. The court also held that this was not a “rarest of the rare” case. Using this “every sinner has a future” precedent, the Orissa High Court in May 2024 also commuted the sentence of a rapist-murderer of a six-year-old child. He had been on death row, but they commuted it to “life imprisonment”.  In India, “life imprisonment” usually means the convict will walk after 14 years, so that is the total sentence the murderer will serve in practice.On August 20th came another shocker. After 32 years, a POCSO court has convicted six men in Ajmer of raping/molesting, photographing and blackmailing over a hundred minor girls. It took 32 years for what should have been an open-and-shut case. The assailants are said to have political connections with a particular party. Also on August 20th, the Justice Hema Commission published its report on the plight of women in the Malayalam film industry. It alleges that sexual exploitation including the ‘casting couch' is rife, discrimination such as the lack of even basic amenities like toilets on sets is common, and that a ‘criminal gang' of senior actors, producers, and directors perpetuates a cycle of abuse. Soft on crimes against women and girlsAll this signals that the Indian State, especially the Judiciary, is soft on horrific crimes against women and girls. This cannot continue in a civilized nation. One possible outcome is that the Executive and the Judiciary will take cognizance of these lapses, and provide severe deterrence, which can only come with fast-tracking of these cases, and enforcing capital punishment, instead of vague homilies quoting Oscar Wilde.Another possibility is vigilante justice. There was the 1974 film Death Wish about an unassuming architect in New York who takes the law into his own hands after his wife is murdered and his daughter raped by violent criminals. He stalks muggers and criminals. Ordinary citizens may be tempted to do the same in India. The third thing is to drum it into males from a young age, especially in school, that they have to respect women as human beings, not see them as sexual prey. Repeated insistence on that message will get through to them.  Furthermore, there is every reason to try juveniles committing heinous crimes (such as rape and murder) as adults. The existing Juvenile Justice Act is sufficient for this; it may well be that prosecutors are not using the law to its full extent. Prosecutorial incompetence was alleged in the Sowmya case as well, along with the involvement of shadowy benefactors for the murderer. Copycat crimes, in particular against babies and toddlers, are becoming more frequent. In November 2023, a two-and-a-half-year-old girl was raped by a 17-year-old boy in Buldhana, Maharashtra. In August 2024, a Class 9 student was detained for allegedly raping a three-year-old girl in Mumbai.This sort of thing simply cannot continue. It is not the case that India is particularly prone to sexual crimes against women: the number of reported rapes is not high compared to other countries, but for a nation that calls itself the Motherland and worships many female deities, the cavalier treatment of crimes against women is a disgrace, and must be stopped.1100 words, 20th August 2024, updated 21st August This is a public episode.

Kamala Harris is framing her presidential race against Donald Trump as prosecutor versus felon. What kind of a prosecutor was she in California?  The Israeli prime minister will address Congress on Wednesday, and meet with Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Donald Trump. But support for Israel among Americans has decreased. Critics have praised “The Bear” for its realistic portrayal of the high-stress restaurant world. But it’s also about what alcohol addiction does to families.  Kamala Harris has embraced Gen Z internet memes and pop star Charli XCX’s viral summer album “brat” to energize young voters.

The End of the Trump Prosecutorial Nightmare and Political Vigilante Witch Hunt

The Tom Renz Show – These lawsuits against Trump are so terrible that it's hard to even believe that they are serious. As we consider Fanni's conflicts of interest, the legally absurd approach being taken in the hush money case, the clear political nature of the documents case, and all the other nonsense, my only real question is why no one has been brought up on ethics charges.These cases are a distraction and nothing more...

In a gripping episode of 'Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski,' Tony and Attorney Eric Faddis delve into the myriad of civil cases and a looming federal investigation encircling the once untouchable music mogul, Diddy. Amidst allegations ranging from weapons possession to sex trafficking, Diddy's carefully curated image is under unprecedented scrutiny. Faddis critiques one of Diddy's attorney's bold claim of having "overwhelming, indisputable proof" of his innocence, cautioning against such grandiose public declarations. The conversation navigates through the murky waters of civil suits, non-disclosure agreements, and the potential criminal repercussions stemming from them. It touches on the prosecutorial strategies likely to unfold across multiple states, given the sprawling nature of the allegations. Faddis speculates on Diddy's possible defense narrative—emphasizing consensual encounters—while also pondering the influence of drugs on his judgment and behavior. The dialogue provides a stark look at the complexities of defending high-profile clients in the age of federal scrutiny, highlighting the potential for significant legal and PR battles ahead for Diddy. Diddy faces a tarnished image amidst widespread allegations, with his legal team aggressively asserting his innocence. Civil suits and settled cases may provide a foundation for federal criminal investigations, with NDAs offering limited protection. Prosecutorial strategy might involve segmenting charges across multiple jurisdictions, focusing initially on the most provable offenses. Drugs are speculated to have played a significant role in Diddy's alleged misconduct, potentially influencing his decision-making and sense of invulnerability. Faddis suggests a cautious approach for Diddy, emphasizing humility over bombastic public statements, given the broad spectrum of charges and the serious nature of the allegations. #Diddy #EricFaddis #TonyBrueski #FederalInvestigation #CivilSuits #DrugAllegations #ConsensualDefense #MusicMogulDownfall #PublicImageCrisis #LegalStrategy Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Amidst allegations ranging from weapons possession to sex trafficking, Diddy's carefully curated image is under unprecedented scrutiny. Faddis critiques one of Diddy's attorney's bold claim of having "overwhelming, indisputable proof" of his innocence, cautioning against such grandiose public declarations. The conversation navigates through the murky waters of civil suits, non-disclosure agreements, and the potential criminal repercussions stemming from them. It touches on the prosecutorial strategies likely to unfold across multiple states, given the sprawling nature of the allegations. Faddis speculates on Diddy's possible defense narrative—emphasizing consensual encounters—while also pondering the influence of drugs on his judgment and behavior. The dialogue provides a stark look at the complexities of defending high-profile clients in the age of federal scrutiny, highlighting the potential for significant legal and PR battles ahead for Diddy. Diddy faces a tarnished image amidst widespread allegations, with his legal team aggressively asserting his innocence. Civil suits and settled cases may provide a foundation for federal criminal investigations, with NDAs offering limited protection. Prosecutorial strategy might involve segmenting charges across multiple jurisdictions, focusing initially on the most provable offenses. Drugs are speculated to have played a significant role in Diddy's alleged misconduct, potentially influencing his decision-making and sense of invulnerability. Faddis suggests a cautious approach for Diddy, emphasizing humility over bombastic public statements, given the broad spectrum of charges and the serious nature of the allegations. #Diddy #EricFaddis #TonyBrueski #FederalInvestigation #CivilSuits #DrugAllegations #ConsensualDefense #MusicMogulDownfall #PublicImageCrisis #LegalStrategy Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has activated a new law allowing a state panel to discipline or even oust prosecutors. The move could impact Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' legal actions against former President Donald Trump. Kemp argues the law targets prosecutors who fail to enforce laws linking it to a national rise in crime. But critics see it as a political maneuver, especially since last year's attempt to get the Prosecuting Attorneys Qualification Commission up and running hit a roadblock when the state Supreme Court expressed concerns about its jurisdiction. Despite this, the new legislation sidesteps the need for Supreme Court approval, raising eyebrows and likely prompting legal challenges. The new law mandates that district attorneys individually assess each case, barring them from dismissing whole categories of offenses. This is seen as an attempt to limit prosecutorial discretion and to spark debate about its implications on justice and political interference. Proponents of the law insist it is about ensuring law and order. Opponents argue it's a veiled attack on Democratic prosecutors like Willis. Learn more about your ad choices.

Morphew and Murdaugh Cases: Prosecutorial & Judge Misconduct..? Let's Talk About It!

     Slam the Gavel podcast welcomes Eric L. Nelson, Ph.D to the podcast to discuss his intriguing book, "Living and Working with Evil People, A Survival Guide, published January 2020.  We discussed his book at length as this isn't a book about "normal" people who commit evil acts. It is about evil people who commit evil acts.  Eric Nelson, Ph.D. approached this from a non-religious standpoint and examines all personality types from clinical and practical standpoint as well as from an academic standpoint.     We discussed the four personality traits of a Sociopath and how a sociopath is a persons on the outside looking in through a window, yet knowing they will never be normal. High - functioning Evil Personality Disorder comes off with disarming charm to get a person to trust them and their intellect is a tool. High - functioning, and very sophisticated at GAME PLAYING, somewhat like some lawyers. Chronic LIARS think through the layers of lies that will be told when asked.    Discussing the Evil Personality Type and the key factors are 'Blood Lust' and lack of conscience. The EPT is to figure out someone who is close to you, spouse, child, relative. The Caution Tool, Eric Nelson, Ph.D. discussed would be good for young people who are just getting into the dating world. "Passivity is the playground of the evil," Eric Nelson, Ph.D states and how important it is to leave an evil individual and the time it takes or perhaps, not leave at all.    This segue led to the field of 'Law,' and how this applies to some lawyers but not all as well as judges. Judges come in with their own agenda or come in with a preformed cognition. Are judges paid off? Judges MISUSE DISCRETION in multiple cases because THEY KNOW only ONE of them will go to appeal. This is the WILD, WILD WEST. The justice system, whether it be judges or prosecutors, have so much discretion that they can do a tremendous amount of ABUSE within the framework and get away with it. Judicial reform is OVERDUE and Prosecutorial reform is OVERDUE. NOT A PODCAST TO BE MISSED.To Reach Eric L.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: On Wednesday, Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) seemingly froze while taking questions during a press conference. His doctor stated that McConnell is “medically clear” and is permitted to continue working—explaining that it was simply a case of lightheadedness. Philadelphia progressives want to raise the age of adulthood to 25-years-old for prosecutorial purposes. According to Randall Chase of the Associated Press, “a federal judge in Delaware ordered prosecutors and defense attorneys on Thursday to provide a status report regarding a felony gun charge against Hunter Biden. Judge Maryellen Noreika directed lawyers to provide the report by next Wednesday, including any steps they believe the court needs to take.” You can read the full report here: https://apnews.com/article/hunter-biden-joe-biden-burisma-plea-deal-taxes-guns-drugs-5887025e2caefef9bb5ddb23b69820e8 S.A.

Eli Lake—Contributing Editor at Commentary Magazine & Host of “The Re-Education Podcast”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest article at The Free Press, “Alvin Bragg's Dangerous Stunt.” Lake writes, “Many campaign finance law experts say it's unclear whether hush money would be an in-kind contribution to a political campaign, since Trump himself has said he made the payments to spare his family from embarrassment—not to win the 2016 election. What's more, President Biden's own Justice Department, which would be the appropriate venue to prosecute this case, has declined to do so—presumably, because there's not much there there. Finally, reporting violations of campaign finance law are almost never prosecuted as felonies.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.thefp.com/p/alvin-braggs-dangerous-stunt

You know and hate qualified immunity, which allows cops to get away with murder. Now meet prosecutorial immunity, the judge-made doctrine that allows prosecutors to get away with the death penalty. Prosecutorial immunity shields prosecutors from the consequences of their actions - whether it's putting witnesses they know are lying on the stand, withholding exculpatory evidence, or retaliating against you for refusing a plea.

In and out of juvie and jail since childhood, Charles Manson learned guitar in prison from the last of the great Depression-era gangsters. He also made music industry connections in jail like the Rolling Stones' road manager. During the "Summer of Love", Manson bounced from prison and took his act to San Francisco, formed a drug-soaked sex cult, moved the whole Family to L.A., and before you could say “celebrity orgy,” he was hanging with Neil Young, the Mamas and the Papas, and the Beach Boys. Charles Manson was about to be the breakout star of 1969…at least in his own mind. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners and includes graphic depictions of violence.

In the wake of the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v Wade, state Attorneys General around the country are grappling with a new landscape of abortion rights. Harry is joined by three of those state officials from blue states–AG Dana Nessel of Michigan, AG Aaron Ford of Nevada, & AG Phil Weiser of Colorado–to discuss the status of abortion law in their states & what they are doing to protect the reproductive health care of their residents and those who travel to their states seeking abortions.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sam and Emma host Matt Ford, staff writer for the New Republic, to discuss the most important cases coming before the Supreme Court this month. Then Sam and Emma are joined by Akela Lacy, politics reporter at the Intercept, to discuss her recent piece "What's Stopping Chesa Boudin?" ahead of his recall election. Emma and Sam first cover the indictment of 5 Proud Boys on the eve of the nationally televised 1/6 hearings, and John Cornyn finally comes to his senses on gun control and speaks out against easy access to… Elementary Schools. Matt Ford then joins as they walk through the massive consequences that we must prepare for regarding this conservative SCOTUS and their upcoming decisions. Matt begins by assessing the discord behind the scenes of the Court right now, from a difficulty in finding cohesion in rulings and reports of lacking amicability, to the news of the leak and the friction that has caused, before diving deeper into internal reactions to the leak, including the belief that it was a liberal-left attack on the institution's integrity, and what role the justices could've played in the matter. Next, they cover the matter of what the leak covered, diving into Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization and the 15-week cut off as an effective reversal of Roe v. Wade, as well as looking at the greater implications of undermining 4A privacy rights, from an overturn of Obergerfell to a return to sodomy laws. Matt, Sam, and Emma also cover the upcoming New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen as the first 2A case since 2010, and look to West Virginia v. EPA as the next step in the conservative road to demolishing the administrative state. Then, Akela Lacy joins as she situates the recall attempt against Chesa Boudin as one of many recalls targeting reform-minded DAs, regardless of popularity or success, and a product of an effort that started before Boudin even effectively took office, with massive amounts of money flowing in from countless angles, including the former Chair of the San Francisco DNC  working as a paid “volunteer,” and mass investment from police unions and realty associations. Next, they cover the massive project that this recall effort has entailed, including the purchasing of the website days before Boudin took office and the creation of an “outlet” (it's just a substack) on the talking points, before unpacking the lies and misinformation that fuels the establishment attacks, and wrapping up with a discussion on the relationship between Boudin and the San Francisco police. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Arnulfo Reyes' heartbreaking recount of his class' experience in the shooting at Robb Elementary, Sam from St. Paul dives into Minnesota infrastructure and redlining, John from San Antonio runs through upcoming CA primaries, and Grant Stinchfield and Stephen Crowder do their best ahistorical spin on the Holocaust. Charles from TN discusses owning a Tesla and having people try to talk to him about Musk, Kowalski from Nebraska celebrates international Antifa victory day (D-Day) and unpacks the Ukrainian wheat harvest, Kyle Rittenhouse spreads misinformation about himself, presumably, so someone will actually hold him to account, and Justin from Cincinnati discusses transphobia and Ohio, plus, your calls and IMs!
