Donald Trump's nominee for Attorney General, Pam Bondi, has testified in her Senate confirmation hearing. Glenn reviews her testimony and explores the question of whether she will have the resolve and the determination to stand up to Trump's inevitable lawlessness during his second term.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us 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/glennkirschner2X aka Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/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.

Special Counsel Jack Smith's report about Donald Trump's criminal attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election is now public. Of course, Trump immediately posted a bunch of lies about Jack Smith's work and his report, attempting to undermine the public's confidence in Smith's work specifically and our institutions of government more generally. Glenn focuses on just five paragraphs contained in Jack Smith's letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland that accompanied the report, and why it's important to focus on accurate, truthful, and credible information rather that the name-calling and lies of someone who tried to steal a presidential election.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us 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/glennkirschner2X aka Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/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.

In two related legal developments, Judge Cannon finally relents and paves the way for the public release of Volume 1 of Special Counsel Jack Smith's report, documenting Donald Trump's 2020 election subversion crimes. In a second development, Arizona Attorney General Kris Mays formally requested that the Department of Justice provide Special Counsel Jack Smith's entire file on Trump's election crimes so that evidence can be used in the Arizona state prosecution of Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani and the other defendants indicted for trying to undermine the 2020 election results in Arizona. Notably, in the Arizona prosecution, Trump is designated "unindicted co-conspirator 1". Given that the evidence against one co-conspirator is admissible against all co-conspirators, courtesy of the doctrine of co-conspirator liability, when the Arizona case goes to trial in January of 2026, Americans should get to see the evidence of Trump's 2020 election subversion crimes as they pertain to the Arizona charges.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us 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/glennkirschner2X aka Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/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.

Special Counsel Jack Smith was compelled by Department of Justice policy to dismiss the two criminal cases he brought against Donald Trump. Thereafter, Smith delivered his final Special Counsel report to the Attorney General. Accordingly, Smith's work as Special Counsel is complete. However, some people are asking if Smith's resignation from DOJ represents obeying an aspiring dictator in advance, or if his resignation was inevitable and has nothing to do with fear of retaliation by Trump and those he appoints to take over the DOJ. Glenn explains the answer to that question.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us 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/glennkirschner2X aka Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/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.

Mainstream media knows that Donald Trump helps them "sell soap powder." Because Trump's near-daily outrageous posts and statements guarantees maximum viewership, media seems intent on playing them on an endless loop, 24/7. As a result, Trump's lies proliferate, saturate and poison the public discourse. If only the media would chose to present the truth of Trump's crimes and corruption as consistently as his endless false claims about "hoaxes" and "witch hunts" and "conflicted judges" and "deranged prosecutors." This reporting disparity was glaringly obvious when the audio of Donald Trump's criminal sentencing hearing was released. It seemed you couldn't turn on the TV without hearing the recording of Trump's bloviating at his sentencing hearing, while it seemed difficult to find and extending airing of the prosecutor's truthful and accurate statements to the judge about Trump's crimes of conviction. Glenn reviews IN WHOLE prosecutor Joshua Steinglass' statement to Judge Juan Merchan before the judge sentenced Trump.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us 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/glennkirschner2X aka Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/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.

After exhausting all attempts to keep from being sentenced for the 34 felony crimes for which a jury convicted him, Judge Juan Merchan sentenced Donald Trump, making him a convicted felon. Glenn discusses the highlights of the hearing and the three main takeaways from the sentencing of the former and future president of the United States.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us 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/glennkirschner2X aka Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/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.

Did Trump-appointed judge Aileen Cannon abuse her judicial discretion yet again in favor of Donald Trump? Judge Cannon no longer presides over the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, as it is now in the exclusive jurisdiction of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals. Apparently undeterred by her lack of jurisdiction over the documents case, The New York Times just reported that, "Judge Cannon Blocks Release of Special Counsel's Final Report on Trump."Will this act turn out to be the third time Judge Cannon abuses her judicial discretion to the benefit of Trump?Glenn discusses the implications of this latest Cannon ruling.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us 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/glennkirschner2X aka Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/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.

There was one federal prosecutor who was assigned by the Department of Justice to be present at, observe, and work the protest-turned-insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6th, 2021. Former federal prosecutor Alyse Adamson (Constantinide) is that person.For the first time, Alyse tells her story on air, and it is a riveting account of what she witnessed and experienced on the grounds of the Capitol on January 6th. As she watched the brutal attacks on law enforcement and experienced the pepper spray/bear spray first hand, she told her DOJ supervisors, "This is terrorism!"After spending January 6th, 2021, watching the Trump-incited mob trying to stop the certification of Joe Biden's election win, Alyse spent January 7th representing the people of the United States in court as the first rioters to be arrested in connection with the Capitol attack were arraigned in court for the the crimes they committed the day before.Alyse can be found on Instagram at: @alysetadamsonHuge thanks to Leo K. for his assistance on all aspects of this interview series.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us 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/glennkirschner2Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

January 6, 2025, could not have been more different than January 6, 2021. Four years ago, Donald Trump lost an election and made sure all hell would break loose, sending his angry mob to the Capitol to stop the certification.Four years later, Trump won an election and Kamala Harris and the Democrats behaved like adults and patriots, peacefully certifying the election results. Now it's time to stop fighting yesterday's battles and turn our attention to tomorrow's battle for the soul of America. We are already virtually in another election cycle: the midterms. Let's leave the in-fighting, backstabbing, dysfunction and dissension to the Republicans and focus on restoring an allegiance to the rule of law and the Constitution, and rebuilding the promise and reputation of America, at home and abroad.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us 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/glennkirschner2Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
