Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

Trump appointed Judge Aileen Cannon did favor after favor for Donald Trump while she was presiding over his Classified Documents/Obstruction of Justice/Espionage case, and was reversed by an appeals court for abusing her discretion and acting in ways the law didn't allow. Then, Cannon dismissed Trump's criminal case contrary to prevailing precedent, which is presently the subject of an appeal by Special Counsel Jack Smith. Now, in a twist that is stranger than fiction, Judge Cannon has been assigned to preside over the criminal case of Ryan Routh, the persons who is charged with an alleged Trump assassination plot. So, the question becomes, should Routh's defense attorney file a motion to remove Cannon from presiding over a case in which Trump is the alleged victim?Glenn discusses the legal ins and outs of this strange development.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.

In rapidly developing events, Special Counsel Jack Smith filed his "oversized motion" detailing all the evidence of Donald Trump's January 6th crimes, and Judge Tanya Chutkan has set an October 1st (at noon) deadline for Trump's lawyers to file any objections to the redactions in Smiths' motion. Thereafter, it appears Judge Chutkan will rule on Trump's objections and then order Smith's brief to be filed on the public docket for all to see. Glenn gives a detailed discussion of these new legal developments and translates the new court filings from Legalese to English.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.

After being disbarred in New York, Rudy Giuliani was just disbarred again. This time, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals disbarred Rudy from ever practicing law again in the courts of Washington , DC, for the election lies he pursued on behalf of Donald Trump. Glenn runs down the past crimes of Giuliani and ponders what Trump's current lawyers might do WHEN Trump loses this next election in November.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.

Glenn had the pleasure of being invited to testify before Congress about Donald Trump and the Republican's rule-of-law busting Project 2025. The challenge: in a five-minute-long opening statement, Glenn had to highlight and summarize why Project 2025 represents Trump's blueprint for autocracy.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.

The most powerfully incriminating witness against Donald Trump is always . . . Donald Trump. As The Washington Post headline related: "With one exaggerated anecdote, Trump kneecaps his Jan. 6 defense."Glenn explains how a Trump story about controlling his angry MAGA mob with a single tweet will be admissible as sharply incriminating evidence at Trump's upcoming trials.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.

The Supreme Court returned Trump's criminal case to DC Federal Court Judge Tanya Chutkan directing her to hold hearings to determine which of Trump's January 6th crimes involved official presidential acts and which did not. Trump's lawyers have filed a 34-page brief demanding that Judge Chutkan "dismiss" Trump's case "promptly." In other words, Trump's lawyers are urging the judge to disregard the directives of the Supreme Court and just toss Trump's case entirely, without conducting the litigation the Supreme Court directed her to conduct. Moreover, Trump's lawyers are demanding this prompt dismissal to " protect the integrity of the Presidency and the upcoming election, as well as the Constitutional rights of - the American people." This kind of absurd double-speak would make George Orwell blush.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.

Donald Trump and JD Vance knew the stories they were telling about pets being abducted and eaten by immigrants in Springfield, Ohio were lies, yet they told them anyway. As the Wall Street Journal just reported: "How the Trump Campaign Ran With Rumors About Pet-Eating Migrants - After Being Told They Weren't True". Ever since Trump and Vance knowingly and intentionally told those lies, the people of Springfield have been in danger. There have been more than 30 bomb threats made to government buildings, schools, and people's homes. Stating the obvious, these bomb threats would not have been made but for the racist and dangerous lies told by Trump and Vance.Will they be held accountable for the damage they've done to the city and the people of Springfield?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.

A federal judge in Arizona has rejected Mark Meadows' attempt to have his criminal case moved from Arizona state court to federal court, ruling that the things Meadows did with, at the direction of, and for the benefit of Donald Trump in tying to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election - didn't constitute part of his official duties as Trump's Chief of Staff. This is not only bad news for Meadows, but it provides a preview of how Judge Tanya Chutkan may rule on the similar question of whether Trump's conduct was official presidential conduct entitled to immunity or unofficial conduct for which Trump CAN be criminally prosecuted.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.

To absolutely no one's surprise, Donald Trump and his lawyers just filed a request for a 30-day delay in the deadline to submit his brief in the appeal for his classified documents case.What some folks did find surprising - Special Counsel Jack Smith did NOT oppose the delay. Glenn says there are actually three reasons why Smith's decisions not to oppose the delay makes sense.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.

Rudy Giuliani has failed in court yet again - this time in spectacular fashion. Giuliani had filed a lawsuit claiming President Joe Biden had defamed him in a 2020 presidential debate. Yet, after Biden's lawyer objected to Rudy's failure to prove personal jurisdiction to bring the lawsuit, Rudy "failed to object to the motion." The federal judge went on to rule that "Giuliani has utterly failed to carry this burden," and dismissed the case.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.

Donald Trump is being prosecuted for (among other things) lying to his supporters about stolen votes and rigged elections. He whipped them up into a frenzy and then he told them to go to the US Capitol and stop the certification of a presidential election. Put another way, Trump intentionally lies to incite violence. And now he's at it again. Trump is telling disgusting, despicable, and reckless violence-inducing lies about the Haitian community - and violence is again happening. All the while, Trump is on pretrial release. The law provides that if a defendant on pretrial release poses a danger to the community, his release should be revoked and he should be detained pending trial. Yet judges, prosecutors, and all institutions of government seem determined to sacrifice the safety of all Americans to the clear, demonstrated danger of Trump's reckless, violence-inducing lies.

It seems there's hardly a court case Donald Trump can't lose. The highest appeals court in New York has rejected Trump's attempt to get the existing gag order in his New York criminal case lifted. The appeals court rejected Trump's arguments and left the gag order in place while Trump's case is pending sentencing.

It looks like Donald Trump has finally brought people together, given that it seems almost everyone, including Brit Hume, believes Harris defeated Trump in the debate. Indeed, Hume, Fox's chief political analyst, said, "make no mistake about it: Trump had a bad night.

The more JD Vance talks, the clearer it becomes that he's one of history's worst VP candidates. Not only does he mock, and alienate almost every conceivable voter group and demographic, but he just announced (in substance) that he would have helped Trump steal the 2020 election by supporting the fake elector scheme. Of course, the fake electors are being prosecuted in states around the country, as are the architects of the fake elector conspiracy. Undeterred, Vance seems to indicate that he would happily join those being prosecuted as one of their fellow co-defendants by joining the conspiracy to defraud the US, the conspiracy against voting rights, and by violating the Electoral Count Act. Not exactly the stuff of someone seeking to be Vice 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/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.

As The Washington Post reported, "Trump pledges to jail opponents, baselessly suggests election will be stolen from him." In advance of the upcoming election, Donald Trump is again telling the big lie about voter fraud and stolen elections and again inspiring people to anger and priming the pump for violence.Trump has demonstrated a track record for inspiring and inciting violence using his transparent election lies. Yet the institutions of government seem disinclined to do anything about it, notwithstanding the fact that Trump is intent on replicating the circumstances that produced the violence of January 6th, 2021.Will our institutions of government just shrug and say, "Oh well, free speech." Notably, Trump's inflammatory rhetoric is designed to and is likely to incite violence. And THAT is not protected by the First Amendment. This time, will the institutions of government tasked with protecting the American people and American elections act before it's too late?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.

Judge Tanya Chutkan ordered that Jack Smith file a brief on September 26th disclosing all of Donald Trump's acts on and around January 6th so she can litigate which of Trump's crimes and acts might be official presidential acts and which are not. And there was a remarkable statement made by Trump's attorney at the court hearing that Justice Clarence Thomas "directed" them to raise the issue of the legality of the appointment of special counsel and "suggested" they do it immediately. If this is true, investigations are necessary.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.

The first hearing in DC federal court in Donald Trump's 2020 election subversion case since the Supreme Court handed down its presidential immunity ruling has finally happened. Glenn was in court for the hearing and he discusses how Judge Tanya Chutkan would have none of the arguments of Trump's lawyer, John Lauro, who tried to convince her that she should not promptly litigate the very issue the Supreme Court directed her to promptly litigate, namely, which of Trump's crimes, acts, and conduct - constitute official presidential acts worthy of immunity and which do not. Glenn says: the hearing did no go well for Trump and his lawyers.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.

In a desperate attempt to avoid being sentenced in his New York case on his 34 felony convictions, Donald Trump and his lawyers file ANOTHER motion trying to convince a federal court judge to transfer his hush money/falsifying business records/2016 election interference case from state court to federal court.In rejecting Trump's second attempt to have his case transferred, New York Federal District Judge Alvin Hellerstein delivers what can fairly be characterized as a judicial smackdown of Trump and his attorneys.Glenn reviews Judge Hellerstien's ruling and opinion.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.

Trump is forever trying his criminal cases in the court of public opinion, where there are no rules of evidence, no rules of procedure, and no rules of law. However, once his cases move into courts of law, Donald Trump will be (and has been) convicted in a New York minute. Glenn discusses why Trump's recent admission on TV that he "interfered' in the presidential election is admissible under the rules of evidence.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.

A jury ordered Rudy Giuliani to pay Georgia election workers Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman $146 million for lying and defaming them, and endangering their lives in the process. Ever since the jury handed down that judgment, Giuliani has been ducking, dodging, and deceiving - in efforts to avoiding paying out on the money judgment.Now, Shaye and Ruby have filed a motion in federal court in New York seeking to seize Giuliani's assets: his multi-million-dollar apartments and condos in New York and Florida, his high-dollar sports memorabilia, his extensive luxury watch collection, his diamond jewelry, etc., in an attempt to satisfy the money judgment.It looks like Rudy is running out of rope.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.

Special Counsel Jack Smith and Donald Trump's criminal defense attorneys have filed a joint scheduling proposal with Judge Tanya Chutkan regarding their respective suggestions on how to litigate the absolute immunity issue in the aftermath of the Supreme Court's ruling that a president's official acts might be immune from prosecution. Smith informed the judge that he is prepared to file a motion disclosing all of the "unpled" evidence and information of Trump's crimes, meaning evidence that was not disclosed in the first or second (superseding) indictments in Trump's election subversions case in DC. This disclosure is necessary so the judge can fully litigate the issue: which of Trump's crimes and conduct are immune from prosecution and which are not. Jack Smith informed the judge that he's "prepared to file" the brief "promptly at any time the Court deems appropriate." Not surprisingly, Trump's attorneys said in the joint filing that they don't want to litigate the immunity issue any time soon - if at all. Glenn discusses the implications of this new court filing and the next decisions to be made by Judge Chutkan.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.

During a trip to Arlington National Cemetery, Donald Trump showed extreme disrespect for deceased military service members, desecration of the hallowed ground of their final resting place, and a despicable disregard for a cemetery employee who tried to prevent Trump and his campaign members from violating federal prohibitions against political activity at the cemetery. Glenn discusses why Trump has exposed himself as unworthy of the support of military service members, veterans, and the family members of those who have been laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery.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.

In the wake of the horrific Supreme Court opinion granting presidents immunity for committing democracy-busting crimes against the American people, Jack Smith decided to seize the initiative. Rather than waiting until the litigation before Judge Tanya Chukka to sort out the implications of the new Supreme Court ruling, Smith went before a new grand jury, and presented only evidence of Trump's unofficial acts that violated the law - removing from the case Trump's acts that could have run afoul of the Supreme Court ruling - and asked the grand jury to vote out a new indictment.The good news on the accountability front is that even removing evidence of Trump's "official presidential acts" from the case, the grand jury STILL concluded that there was ample evidence to indict Trump on the same four felonies that appeared in the original indictment.Glenn does a deep dive in the smart, strategic, and tactical choices by Smith in securing this superseding indictment.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.

Special Counsel Jack Smith has filed his appeal of Judge Aileen Cannon's dismissal of Donald Trump's classified documents/obstruction of justice/espionage case, urging the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals to reverse her lawless ruling. Because Judge Cannon has been found to have abused her discretion and reversed twice previously, many were expecting Smith to FINALLY ask the appeals court to remove her from presiding over Trump's case. When it was discovered that Smith AGAIN declined to seek her removal, social medial exploded with one question: "Why won't Smith seek to disqualify such an obviously biased judge?" As legal analyst Joyce Vance noted in her Civil Discourse newsletter: "Jack Smith's brief is in. Here are a few quick thoughts on what is in the brief, but perhaps of more interest is what isn’t included. Smith did not ask the court to reassign the case to another district judge on remand if he’s successful in the appeal." Glenn discuses the possible reasons for Smith's decisions thus far, and why, if the appeals court reverses Cannon AGAIN, the third time may be the charm.Link for Joyce's newsletter: https://joycevance.substack.com/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.

Special Counsel Jack Smith has filed an appeal with the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, urging them to REVERSE Judge Aileen Cannon's dismissal of Trump's classified documents/obstruction of justice/espionage case.Jack Smith made clear that Cannon's dismissal has no legal support and is contrary to all precedent, including precedent from the Supreme Court dating back to the Nixon/Watergate era. As Smith writes, Judge Cannon's dismissal of Trump's case "conflicts with an otherwise unbroken course of decisions, including by the Supreme Court, that the Attorney General has such authority, and it is at odds with widespread and longstanding appointment practices in the Department of Justice and across the government. This Court should reverse."Glenn goes over the next steps in the process and discusses what happens if Jack Smith wins the appeal and what happens in the (unlikely) event Donald Trump wins the appeal.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.

New York Attorney General Letitia James is back in the news as her team files a brief in Donald Trump's appeal of the massive, nearly half-billion dollar civil fraud judgment entered against him.AG James tells the New York appeals court that Trump's appeal is "awash in meritless legal arguments" and ignores volumes of trial evidence showing that he and his co-defendants engaged in "fraud and illegality on an immense scale."Glenn reviews this recent court filing by AG James' team as well as the many other current legal woes of Donald 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/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.

The contrast could not be clearer or more consequential.Vice President Kamala Harris has spent her entire career working for the people. Indeed, when she stood up in court as a prosecutor, she said five words each and every time: "Kamala Harris for the people." Donald Trump has never been motivated by a desire to serve others. It's clear that he pursued the presidency in the name of self-enrichment and self-aggrandizement. And he is again seeing the presidency for this same reasons, AND to stay out of prison. This race is, in a very real sense, between the prosecutor and the criminal. And democracy's future hangs in the balance.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.

After being a Trump loyalist for years, Including serving as his Press Secretary and describing herself as a de facto Trump family member, Stephanie Grisham addressed the Democratic National Convention and said:"I saw him (Trump) when the cameras were off. Behind closed doors, Trump mocks his supporters, he calls them basement dwellers. On a hospital visit one time when people were dying in the ICU, he was mad that the cameras were not watching him. He has no empathy, no morals, and no fidelity to the truth. He used to tell me, it doesn't matter what you say Stephanie. Say it enough, and people will believe you."Glenn reviews Stephanie Grisham's opinions of Trump based on her first-hand experience with him over more than five years, and spending a lot of time watching Trump "behind closed doors."Grisham took to the stage at the Democratic National Convention and endorsed Kamala Harris for president.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.

As we all know, Judge Aileen Cannon - who was appointed to the federal bench by Donald Trump - ruled that Special Counsel appointments are not lawful and she dismissed Trump's federal classified documents/obstruction of justice/espionage case. In a surprising plot twist, Hunter Biden's lawyers pointed to Judge Cannon's decision and tried to use it to convince another federal judge - Judge Mark Scarsi (who was also appointed by Trump) to dismiss the federal tax case pending against Hunter Biden.Judge Scarsi has rejected Judge Cannon's ruling and has refused to dismiss Hunter's case, clearly signaling that he thinks Judge Cannon is dead wrong. This is no surprise as every other federal judge who has decided the special counsel issue over the years has affirmed the lawfulness of special counsel appointments, thereby disagreeing with Cannon.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.

In a somewhat surprising twist, after winning 34 felony convictions against Donald Trump for his efforts to cheat in the 2016 presidential election by criminally falsifying business records, DA Alvin Bragg's prosecutors have filed a letter with Judge Juan Merchan saying they "defer to the court" on whether Trump's sentencing, (presently set for September 18th), should be delayed until after the election. Why would prosecutors defer to the court on such a weighty issue? There's a clue in the two-page letter prosecutors filed with the court as to what's really driving this unexpected position.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.

With Donald Trump's continued cognitive decline (freezing up at rallies, and talk of magical Cheerios cottages) the question that's being posed frequently these days is: Will Donald Trump be able to mount a successful insanity defense at his upcoming criminal trials?

Donald Trump decided to call a press conference at his exclusive, pricey Bedminster golf club in New Jersey to discuss his economic policies and to convince everyone that he understands the financial challenges of everyday Americans. And then he said, as he picked up a box of Cheerios, "I haven't seen Cheerios in a very long time," and announced he intended to take them "back to his cottage" and "have a lot of fun."Donald Trump is an imbecile.

Donald Trump repeatedly has pledged to pardon the insurrectionists who attacked the US Capitol on January 6th and assaulted 140 police officers in their attempt to stop the certification of Joe Biden's election win and keep Trump in office. Judge Royce Lamberth just sentenced J6 defendant David Dempsey to 20 years in prison for his crimes of violence against police officers on January 6th. Another defendant told a judge at his arraignment, "Trump is going to be in office in six months, so I have nothing to worry about."Glenn says: If you needed any additional inspiration to go to the polls on November 5th, here it is.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.

Remember when Donald Trump urged Russia to hack U.S. computer systems to interfere in the 2016 presidential election? You know, when he said, “Hey Russia, if you’re listening, I urge you to find the 33,000 missing emails.”? Well, talk about your chickens coming home to roost - it looks like the Trump campaign was just hacked by foreign actors.See 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 asked for a rare delay in Donald Trump's DC prosecution for trying to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. This development inspired speculation that Smith is now trying to delay the case or maybe that he's not up to the task of prosecuting Trump. This speculation is nonsense. Smith and his team have been going gangbusters after Trump and his criminal cabal. The reasons for the requested delay can be gleaned from the language Smith included in his motion to Judge Tanya Chutkan seeking the delay.As a career federal prosecutor, Glenn had the experience of struggling to get the higher-ups at the DOJ to make decisions that would allow him to move forward in his cases. He includes his experiences in that regard.Indeed, one of those experiences ended up as part of the 2019 movie "Georgetown" by Christoph Waltz.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.

Trump has ben signaling - consistently, expressly, and repeatedly - that he intends to be a "dictator," as he said, "on day one." Glenn discusses why we MUST take Trump at his word when he says Americans will not vote again if they vote him into office this November. We have to stop labeling Trump's pledges to end our democracy as "strange," "bizarre," and "unclear." Trump is telling us exactly what he intends to do.

Donald Trump's longtime flunky, Steve Bannon, presently is serving a four-month prison term for defying congressional subpoenas in an effort to hide incriminating evidence about Donald Trump from the January 6th House select committee. Bannon was also federally indicted previously for conspiracy to defraud Trump supporters our of their money with a bogus "We Build The Wall" foundation. And Trump has such little regard for his supporters that he pardoned Bannon for those crimes. However, Bannon's scam also violated New York State law, and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg charged Bannon. Now, the New York judge presiding over Bannon's state case just set his trial date for December 9th, just over one month from the time Bannon will complete his federal prison 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/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.

The Supreme Court has, in substance, converted American democracy into a monarchy. The court's holding in Trump v. United States enables a president to direct his attorney general to detain the president's political enemies without charges, without evidence, and without due process, and then pardon his attorney general for the crimes he committed at the president's direction. This destruction of the constitution moves American government in the direction of a banana republic.
