Trump has a habit of creating his own destroyers, and now Special Counsel Jack Smith has broken his vow of silence and is demanding to be heard by the public when he testifies about Trump's criminality before Congress. Trump's other self-created destroyer, New York Attorney General Letitia James, is more powerful than ever—filing multiple motions to destroy Trump, his DOJ, and Lindsey Halligan—as her criminal case falls apart right before our eyes. Trump and Melania are caught flat-footed by journalist Michael Wolff, who sues first to preempt a bogus defamation suit shakedown by Melania. A federal judge is about to step in before Trump can send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Liberia in response to Garcia demanding that Trump and his DOJ take the stand. The Supreme Court is about to issue a new, earthshaking decision about Trump's use of the National Guard. And Ben and Popok are back on the top-rated Legal AF Podcast to make it make sense.

Jack Smith, the former Biden administration enforcer working under the title of special counsel finds himself in trouble. He's been formally indicted. Smith's idea of justice was less "scales of fairness" and more sledgehammer to the kneecaps of anyone orange-tinted or wearing a MAGA hat. And now the universe offers a cosmic karma chuckle and flipped the script. Referred to the Department of Justice's Office of Professional Responsibility for what can only be described as a masterclass in overreach, Smith's not just in hot water—he's marinating with a garnish of disbarment proceedings in Tennessee and New York tossed on top. What led to this eventuality isn't some isolated blooper. It's the encore to a four-year farce where the Biden-era DOJ treated "equal justice under law" like a suggestion written on a karaoke song sheet.

1. Christian Persecution in Nigeria Senator Cruz highlights what he describes as a massive and underreported crisis involving the persecution of Christians in Nigeria. Key points include: Over 50,000 Christians killed since 2009. 18,000 churches and 2,000 schools burned, allegedly by extremist groups like Boko Haram and ISIS in West Africa. Accusations that some Nigerian government officials are complicit or negligent in addressing the violence. Cruz has introduced legislation to designate Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern” and impose sanctions on individual officials involved in or ignoring the persecution. He criticizes the mainstream media for failing to cover the issue adequately. Public figures like Bill Maher and Van Jones are cited as supporting the claim that this is a planned genocide and that media silence is a moral failure. 2. Christian Persecution in China This section shifts to a similar story: The Chinese Communist Party’s crackdown on Christianity, particularly targeting Pastor Jin Mingri and the Zion Church. Cruz introduced a bipartisan resolution with Senator Chris Coons condemning China’s actions and urging the release of imprisoned pastors. He emphasizes the need for economic and diplomatic pressure, especially with President Trump’s upcoming meeting with President Xi Jinping. The resolution calls for respect for religious freedom and highlights China’s long-standing designation as a “Country of Particular Concern” by the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. 3. DOJ Surveillance of Republican Senators Cruz discusses revelations that: The Biden DOJ and Special Counsel Jack Smith subpoenaed phone records of nine Republican senators and one House member in connection with the January 6 investigation. Cruz’s phone records were requested from AT&T, but the company refused to comply, citing constitutional protections under the Speech and Debate Clause. He frames this as political persecution and a dangerous abuse of power, likening it to Watergate. He calls for Congressional hearings and transparency to prevent future surveillance of elected officials. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Today's Headlines: President Donald Trump has officially finished demolishing the East Wing of the White House — without filing any plans, naturally — to make way for a $300 million “Marie Antoinette” ballroom. He also pardoned Binance founder “CZ” Zhao, who pleaded guilty for enabling money laundering (aka crypto's whole vibe) and just happens to be a Trump donor and business partner. Meanwhile, Trump's attempt to indict Rep. Adam Schiff for mortgage fraud has stalled for lack of, well, evidence. And former special counsel Jack Smith wants to testify publicly before Congress to correct “mischaracterizations” about his Trump probes — but only if DOJ promises not to punish him. The government shutdown drags on, and SNAP benefits may not go out in November, leaving millions of families without food assistance. Over at DHS, Trump's new “election integrity” chief Heather Honey told all 50 states the 2020 election was fraudulent and hinted Trump could declare a national emergency to control future elections. Meanwhile, NBA coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat's Terry Rozier were arrested in a mafia-linked betting scandal, and a pro-MAGA crypto site that promised to “expose Charlie Kirk's murderers” vanished after scamming its donors.

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith has agreed to testify before the House Judiciary Committee – but only if the hearing is open to the public. House Chairman Jim Jordan and Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley want answers for how Smith handled his investigation into President Donald Trump and the 2020  presidential election results, including requesting phone records of almost a dozen Republican Members of Congress. The Sekulow team discusses Smith's upcoming testimony, Deep State corruption under the Biden DOJ, the ACLJ's legal work – and much more.

Jen Psaki observes that as Donald Trump gets more comfortable with his autocrat persona, the traits that made him a societal laughing stock all his life are coming to define his leadership style. And the mockery he has become has so diminished him that his opponents are emboldened to get in the way of his demolition of the United States.Donald Trump's lackeys in Congress are trying to support his effort to exact revenge on the public servants who tried to hold him to account. Former special counsel Jack Smith is a prominent name on Trump's enemies list, so it's not surprising that Congressional Republicans would try to discredit him with their investigating-the-investigators hearings. Former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann talks with Jen Psaki about why Jack Smith is smart to agree to participate in the hearings on the condition that they be public.  Jen Psaki addresses questions posed at the White House press briefing, giving more honest and direct answers than the White House is willing to offer on questions ranging from Donald Trump's desecration of the White House to Trump's pardoning of a crypto-criminal business associate.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

1. DOJ Subpoenas and Alleged Political Surveillance Senator Cruz reveals that Jack Smith, Special Counsel under the Biden DOJ, subpoenaed his phone records as part of an investigation into events surrounding January 6th. Cruz was not initially listed among the nine Republican senators whose records were obtained because his phone provider, AT&T, refused to comply with the subpoena, citing constitutional protections under the Speech and Debate Clause. The DOJ reportedly obtained records from Verizon for other senators, including Marsha Blackburn, Ron Johnson, Josh Hawley, and Lindsey Graham. Cruz and Ferguson characterize the subpoenas as a politically motivated fishing expedition, lacking criminal justification. 2. Concerns Over Abuse of Power Cruz argues this represents a dangerous precedent of the executive branch spying on legislative members. He calls for hearings and investigations to uncover who authorized the subpoenas and to prevent future abuses. The operation is referred to as “Arctic Frost”, which Cruz likens to a modern-day Watergate. 3. Meeting with Donald Trump at the White House Cruz recounts a lunch with Trump and other Republican senators, where Trump showcased renovations to the Rose Garden and plans for a new ballroom. The upgrades are privately funded, not taxpayer-funded, yet have drawn criticism from Democrats. Trump also distributed personalized gifts (e.g., challenge coins, golf towels, M&Ms) and joked about naming a room the “Monica Lewinsky Room.” 4. Government Shutdown Cruz discusses the ongoing government shutdown, blaming Democrats for refusing to vote to reopen. He notes that only three Democrats have supported reopening efforts, despite impacts on TSA agents and air traffic controllers. He predicts that retiring Democrats may eventually break ranks to end the shutdown.

Mary and Andrew begin this week with the latest in the Trump administration's attempt to send National Guard troops into American cities. From the 9th Circuit comes a 2-1 decision lifting a lower court's temporary block on deployments into Portland, Oregon. Plus: the government has asked the Supreme Court to weigh in on the use of National Guard troops in Chicago. Mary and Andrew analyze the legal repercussions of both, then move to reporting on a Trump administration promise to betray U.S. informants in order to secure a prison deal with El Salvador. And while a week feels like a year these days, the co-hosts review both John Bolton's indictment last Thursday and James Comey's recent motion to dismiss his case based on vindictive and selective prosecution. Before wrapping up this week, Mary and Andrew take a beat on last week's oral arguments before the Supreme Court in Louisiana v Calláis that dealt directly with the Voting Rights Act and whether redrawing districts can be used to remedy disenfranchising voters in Louisiana.Further Listening/Reading: Here is Andrew's conversation with former Special Counsel Jack Smith at an event at UCL in London: The State of the United States: A Conversation with Jack SmithHere is the reporting from The Washington Post Mary and Andrew spoke about: Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump's El Salvador prison deal.Want to listen to this show without ads?

BREAKING: Jack Smith's Chilling Attack on Ted Cruz.

Jon Herold returns to The Daily Herold with Monday mayhem, dogs in the yard, alpaca jokes, and a packed rundown of weekend chaos. Between clips of Ashe at Willow Wind Farms and birthday shoutouts, Jon dives into Trump's fiery weekend posts, including a warning to Colombia's president over drug trafficking that sounds like a scene from Clear and Present Danger. He unpacks Trump's tense meeting with Zelensky, reports of a planned Budapest summit with Putin, and a new rare earth minerals deal with Australia aimed at countering China's dominance. The show also covers GOP senators pushing for Jack Smith's disbarment, Trump's $15 billion defamation suit against The New York Times, and fresh DOJ shakeups in the Comey case. Between news breaks, Jon builds a tongue-in-cheek “Political Foreplay” list of Trump's yet-to-be-completed promises, from Freedom Cities to “Arrest Fauci.” Equal parts serious analysis and sarcastic humor, this episode blends world news, grassroots banter, and Badlands energy into one hilarious, caffeinated ride through the headlines.

Trump's former National Security Advisor John Bolton has been indicted on 18 felony counts of transmitting and retaining national defense information under the Espionage Act.The judge in Comey's case has denied the government's motion to restrict the sharing discovery with Comey himself and other witnesses, and sets a blisteringly fast classified materials process.Jack Smith speaks out about his Trump prosecutions, and is called to testify before the House Judiciary Committee in a letter from Jim Jordan. Jeanine Pirro chalks up her first acquittal in the District of Columbia in an embarrassing loss in the case of Sidney Reid.Plus listener questions…Do you have questions for the pod?  Follow AG Substack|MuellershewroteBlueSky|@muellershewroteAndrew McCabe isn't on social media, but you can buy his book The ThreatThe Threat: How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and TrumpWe would like to know more about our listeners.

1. Middle East Peace Agreement & U.S. Foreign Policy The discussion opens with praise for Donald Trump’s foreign policy—his “peace through strength” approach ended a two-year war, freed hostages, and prevented global instability. Trump is decisive and feared by America’s enemies (Iran, Hamas, China, Russia), contrasting with Biden, whom they describe as “weak and appeasing.” Historical examples (ISIS defeat, strikes on Iranian targets, anti-Houthi and anti-Venezuelan actions) are cited as evidence of Trump’s assertive leadership. 2. Government Shutdown The conversation blames Democrats—specifically Senator Chuck Schumer—for the “Schumer Shutdown.” The speakers argue Republicans are trying to reopen the government, while Democrats obstruct funding. They highlight political theater surrounding an upcoming rally (“No King’s Rally”) and accuse Democrats of prioritizing political optics over public service. There’s commentary on Congressional pay during shutdowns, with a contrast drawn between Cruz “refusing his paycheck” and Democrats “continuing to collect theirs.” 3. Charlie Kirk’s Death & Legacy This section memorializes Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, fictionalized here as assassinated and posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Trump. We explore Christian forgiveness, with Kirk’s widow, Erica, forgiving Kirk's killer during the televised service. The narrative blends religious devotion, martyrdom, and political faith, presenting Kirk as a “martyr for truth and freedom,” comparable to figures like Martin Luther King Jr., Lincoln, and Saint Peter. Trump’s and Erica’s differing views on “loving one’s enemies” are discussed as a theological and moral moment. 4. Interview with Eric Trump The final part is a conversation with Eric Trump, discussing: Legal battles faced by the Trump family (naming prosecutors like Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, Fani Willis, and Jack Smith). Financial strain (“$400 million defending ourselves against nonsense”). Perceived bias and corruption in the justice system. We then shift to personal reflections on Donald Trump as a father: Emphasis on discipline, hard work, no substance use, and humility despite wealth. Advice for parents: “Keep them poor, make them work early.” The conversation ends on a note of familial pride and loyalty. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

When a group of Young Republicans' racist private messages—which included praise for Hitler and slavery and jokes about gas chambers—get leaked to POLITICO, JD Vance says "that's what kids do" and that we all need to move on. President Trump names new targets for prosecution, including Sen. Adam Schiff, Andrew Weissmann, and Jack Smith, even as Trump's DOJ indicts his old nemesis, John Bolton. Jon and Dan react to Vance and Trump's comments, discuss the Trump administration's plan to weaponize the IRS, and debate whether the administration is seriously considering starting a war with Venezuela. They then turn to the latest developments in the government shutdown, the growing debate over the DSCC's influence in 2026 senate primaries, including those in Maine and Michigan, and a pending ruling at the Supreme Court that could further weaken the Voting Rights Act. Then, Sen. Brian Schatz talks with Tommy about whether the end of the shutdown is in sight, the administration's designation of Antifa as a terrorist organization, and the upcoming No Kings protests.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

The Book and Its Premise (Order Eric's new Book HERE!) Under Siege is presented as Eric Trump’s account of what is “the greatest governmental corruption this nation has ever seen.” Trump and is family were victims of political persecution, media bias, and systemic weaponization of institutions. Claims of Government “Weaponization” Eric Trump accuses the DOJ, FBI, and state-level prosecutors (Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, Jack Smith, etc.) of targeting his family for political reasons. He recounts the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago as an overreach and describes it as “staged” and politically motivated. Mentions being “the most subpoenaed man in history,” claiming to have received over 100 subpoenas. Debanking and Corporate Retaliation Eric Trump says that hundreds of bank accounts belonging to Trump businesses and affiliates were closed due to political pressure. Specific banks named: Capital One, JP Morgan, Bank of America, First Republic. He frames this as an example of private-sector “weaponization” against conservatives. Financial and Legal Struggles The family spent around $400 million defending themselves from investigations and lawsuits. Describes how banks, courts, and insurance companies were allegedly pressured to avoid doing business with the Trump Organization. Personal Reflections and Family Dynamics Speaks warmly of his father as a calm, strong leader under pressure and a strict but loving parent. Emphasizes a childhood of discipline, work ethic, and learning through labor rather than wealth. Contrasts the Trump family’s “moral integrity” with Hunter Biden’s alleged misconduct. Political and Cultural Commentary Denounces DEI initiatives, “wokeness,” and progressive policies as threats to American values. Frames the Trump family’s experience as symbolic of a broader national struggle between conservatives and “corrupt elites.” Presents cryptocurrency as a form of financial freedom against institutional control.

What was supposed to be a sign of unity by a fractious DOJ and FBI leadership called together by Trump in the Oval Office turned into a dressing down of Bondi, Blanche, and Patel by Trump, who demanded that his former Special Counsel, Jack Smith, be indicted along with others in the former DOJ leadership. Michael Popok explains how Jack Smith's first interview since being fired was well timed to coincide with Trump's renewed campaign to have him indicted.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down JB Pritzker's sharp warning to Trump over invoking the Insurrection Act and Obama joining the “imagine if Obama did it” chorus. They analyze Trump's explosive comments comparing U.S. cities like Chicago and Portland to Egypt, Tish James's latest legal moves, and Eric Trump's wild claim that Jack Smith planted classified folders at Mar-a-Lago. Kander and Gupta also dive into the stunning New York Times report on the forced resignation of a U.S. attorney in Virginia who refused to pursue flimsy charges tied to Trump's demands for a Russia-related investigation. Plus, they discuss Trump's hot-mic moment with Indonesia's president, Janet Mills's surprising Senate run in Maine, the leaked racist Young Republicans chat, and how America's growing literacy crisis fits into the broader political decay.

Former special counsel Jack Smith just confirmed that he'd amassed extensive evidence that Donald Trump willfully and knowingly broke the law in stealing classified documents at the end of his first term. Smith's report on this may never be released. But House Judiciary Committee chairman Jim Jordan helpfully exposed a big Trump ruse here. Jordan is demanding that Smith testify to “prove” the Justice Department was “weaponized” against Trump, as Trump wants him to do. But Jordan will never seek Smith's report on classified documents! In today's installment, legal scholar Matthew Seligman, a fellow at the Constitutional Law Center, illuminatingly explains how Jordan exposed the scam underlying Trump's whole approach to DOJ: Everything is about suppressing facts that show the prosecutions of Trump were actually legitimate. Seligman also discusses the recent removals of career DOJ prosecutors, how they're getting fired for not being corrupt on Trump's behalf, and how Trump himself is admitting all this right in public.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

October 14, 2025; 6pm: MSNBC's Ari Melber reports on former DOJ Special Counsel Jack Smith, the prosecutor who brought two criminal indictments against Donald Trump. Smith made a rare public appearance alongside former FBI general counsel Andrew Weissmann, who joins to discuss. Plus, financial journalist and best-selling author Andrew Ross Sorkin joins to discuss latest stock market fears. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

President Donald Trump is forcing the Democrats to face something they're not used to: accountability. We're seeing this play out with his indictment of Letitia James, the attorney general for the state of New York, who made being a Trump adversary a core part of her political brand. Now, she faces charges related to her Maryland property declarations, including discrepancies on federal forms and taxes. On today's episode of "Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words,” Hanson contrasts this case with previous legal actions taken against Trump, highlighting the double standard that Democrats have gotten used to when it comes to evading justice—until now. “We saw, with Alvin Bragg and Letitia James and Fani Willis and Jack Smith, a miscarriage of justice. We all knew that those charges that these four prosecutors filed, A, would've never been filed had Donald Trump said he was not going to run again. B, they will never be filed against any other politician, no doubt. And C, if Donald Trump just said that he was going to run, but he decided he was a RINO or he was left-wing and he agreed with Letitia James' political views, he probably would've got off. He would never have been indicted. And you can diddle the same attitude from Judge Engoron. So, do you just let that all slide or do you look at what Letitia James has allegedly done? It's just simply a question.”

Lawmakers are pushing to hold Special Counsel Jack Smith accountable, demanding he testify before Congress over his investigations into President Trump that ultimately led to dropped charges. Lawmakers are seeking delivery of all documents and communications regarding his unconstitutional investigation. PLUS Ric Grenell breaks down the disturbing election concerns in California – where election integrity is under threat. The Sekulow team analyzes the new developments in Congress, the fight for election integrity, and more.

Rep. Jim Jordan is turning up the heat on Special Prosecutor Jack Smith. In a stunning move, Jordan is demanding Smith appear before Congress to answer for the political lawfare campaign he’s waged against President Trump and conservative Americans. From selective prosecutions to weaponized investigations, the judiciary has become a tool of the left — and Jordan says it’s time for accountability. We’ll break down the evidence, the timing, and what this could mean for Trump’s ongoing cases. Plus, China is getting dangerously provocative. The communist regime is threatening to cut off the U.S. from rare earth minerals, the lifeblood of modern technology and defense manufacturing. What’s really behind this latest economic aggression — and how vulnerable is America to Beijing’s chokehold? We expose the truth behind China’s global power play and why Biden’s weak leadership has made the U.S. an easy target.

Story 1 – “FBI Abuse and Cover-Up” FBI Director Kash Patel has fired agents involved in tracking phone calls of eight Republican senators and one congressman during a supposed investigation led by Special Counsel Jack Smith. It describes a hidden vault of subpoenaed communication records, suggesting a deliberate cover-up under the previous administration’s Department of Justice. The text portrays Patel as a whistleblower uncovering “deep state” corruption and restoring transparency. Senator Josh Hawley is quoted condemning the investigation as an abuse of power “beyond Watergate”, calling for a special counsel. The narrative concludes that the FBI and DOJ were weaponized against political opponents and that new leadership is “unsealing the vault” to expose them. Story 2 – Letitia James Indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James has been indicted on federal bank fraud charges in Virginia. It asserts that she falsified mortgage documents and lied about property records. The narrative contrasts how mainstream media (CNN) allegedly downplays her wrongdoing while emphasizing Trump’s involvement. Commentary from Adam Kinzinger is quoted, supposedly acknowledging both James’s mistakes and the political motives behind her indictment. The story concludes by framing James’s case as part of a broader reckoning against the “deep state” and vindication for Donald Trump’s promises to hold his opponents accountable.

1. FBI Spied on Republicans: The FBI performed a “toll analysis” (a term for examining phone call records and metadata) on eight Republican senators and one congressman. This was supposedly part of a secretive investigation codenamed “Arctic Frost”.
