Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

When it comes to the question of if and when Donald Trump will be held accountable, it may be too early to conclude the tide is turning. But given a half-dozen recent legal developments, the waters of justice undeniably are warming. Those stories include: - Both the House of Representatives General Counsel and the Department of Justice REJECT Mo Brooks plea for help in the suit that Rep. Eric Swalwell and others filed against him for inciting the January 6 attack on the US Capitol - DOJ's decision in the Swalwell/Brooks case is important foreshadowing of how they will resolve the identical issue regarding plea by Trump to be protected by the DOJ - Trump's longtime friend and Chairman of his Inaugural Committee, Tom Barrack is indicted and may very well decide to cooperate with prosecutors in a bid to save himself - Trump's Chief Financial Officer, Allen Weisselberg, stands indicted - The Trump Organization stands indicted for, among other things, a 15-year-long criminal scheme to defraud in the first degree - A House of Representatives Select Committee is conducting a legitimate investigation into what lead to the attack on the US Capitol - Last but not least, a Texas Republican endorsed by Donald Trump just lost his bid for office in Texas, suggesting that Trump's influence is fading, if not outright failing. Indeed, the waters of justice are warming.

Donald Trump's friend, close associate and Inaugural Committee Chairman, Tom Barrack, was arraigned in Federal Court in Brooklyn New York and released on $250 million bail. Specifically, he was released to travel to Aspen, Colorado, where he will live in his $15,000,000 mansion pending trial. This after the Department of Justice characterized Barrack's conduct as "disloyal" to the United States. It looks like it good to be a billionaire friend of Donald Trump. What's in store next for Barrack? Hopefully . . . justice.

Tom Barrack, longtime Trump friend/associate, and the Chairman of Trump's Inaugural Committee, has been indicted on seven felony charges. The charges include conspiracy, failing to register as a foreign agent, obstructing justice and repeatedly lying to the FBI in an attempt to cover up his crimes. The question now becomes, will Barrack decide to cooperate with prosecutors and provide any information he has about the crimes of others. This video discusses the important take-aways from the indictment of Tom Barrack.

Longtime friend and associate Tom Barrack has been indicted for unlawfully acting as a foreign agent for the United Arab Emirates, (UAE) conspiracy, obstructing justice and repeatedly lying to the FBI to cover up his crimes. Barrack served as the Chairman of the Trump inaugural committee, which is also under investigation for possible financial crimes. The 46-page indictment paints a disturbing picture of Barrack being directed by his Emirati handlers from the UAE national security and military agencies to push UAEs priorities and policies in the United States. The indictment related that the Emirati officials would tell Barrack to "praise" certain UAE officials and policies and Barrack would dutifully go on national TV and do exactly as he was directed. This video discusses the important take-aways from the indictment of Tom Barrack.

In the new book by Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker, "I Alone Can Fix It", the authors reveal that Chairman of the Joint Chiefs General Mark Milley put plans in place to defeat any attempt by Donald Trump to unlawfully retain power after losing the presidential election. All military members are taught that lawful orders must be obeyed and unlawful orders must be disobeyed. Gen. Milley was honoring his oath of office and allegiance to the Constitution by preparing to defeat any attempt at an illegal coup. Here is a discussion of the importance of our government officials being guided by their responsibility to the Constitution, particularly as Trump and many Republicans continue to push The Big Lie on the American people.

Donald Trump sat for interviews with author Michale Wolff for a new book titled Landslide. Trump reveals some things about Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh that should breathe new life into calls for an investigation into Kavanaugh. Indeed, New Yorker Magazine previously catalogued the many unanswered questions surrounding Kavanaugh, including his mysteriously evaporating mountains of debt. This video reviews some of the Kavanaugh matters that still scream out for a full, fair, apolitical investigation.

Former President Donald Trump gave a hate-filled, largely fact-free speech at CPAC - the Conservative Political Action Conference. Trump berated Bill Barr for not helping him overturn the election results, he slandered Hillary Clinton as his adoring fans chanted "lock her up," he mocked others and cursed like an ill-tempered teenager, and his groupies in the crowd loved it. Donald Trump will continue to do all he can to destroy American democracy until the Department of Justice finally indicts him for the many crimes he committed in violation of the laws of the United States.

Donald Trump has filed a transparently frivolous lawsuit against Twitter, Google and Facebook, claiming his First Amendment free speech rights have been violated. The problem is, even a casual reading of the Constitution would have alerted Trump and his lawyers to the fact that the First Amendment does not apply to private businesses/social media platforms. Trump's suit will be dismissed and Trump's lawyers may be on the hook for sanctions for filing a baseless suit. Here is an overview of how this suit might play out and the potential for Donald Trump to be forced to sit for a deposition before the suit is dismissed.

Other countries prosecute their criminal leaders - Presidents, Prime Ministers, etc. For example, France, South Korea, South Africa and Italy have all prosecuted former leaders for crimes they committed while in office. However, in the United States there is no precedent for prosecuting a criminal former president. Prosecutors generally don't like to take maiden legal voyages, that is, bring a case that is unprecedented. Prosecutors like to have legal precedent as a blueprint. They like to have the comfort and cover of being able to point to an appellate court opinion - legal precedent - and say, "this has been done before, so I am not breaking new legal ground." However, logic and common sense dictate that, if you require precedent to indict a criminal former president then we could NEVER charge a criminal former president. Indeed, the way prosecutors create precedent is by doing something for the first time. The real question is - is there anything prohibiting the prosecution of a former president for crimes he committed while in office. The answer is a definitive NO - there is no law, no statute, no appellate court opinion and no Supreme Court precedent prohibiting the prosecution of a former president. This video discusses prosecutorial considerations in taking a maiden legal voyage - brining a novel case for which there is no legal precedent and relates example of when such novel legal cases have been brought in the courts of Washington, DC.

There is an ominous sentence on page ten of the Trump Organization/Allen Weisselberg indictment that suggests two other Trump Organization employees might be next in line for indictment. The sentence reads: “In addition to Weisselberg and his family member, two other employees received substantial amounts of compensation in the form of lodging in New York City and the payment of automobile leases.” You don’t need to read between the lines to realize that these two unnamed Trump Organization employees may have committed the very same crimes for which Weisselberg was just indicted. This begs the question, who else might have been so high up in the Trump Organization or so firmly entrenched in Trump’s inner circle that they might also have been part of the criminal scheme to defraud. There are certainly some Trump family members that would seem to fit that description. Any way you slice it, this language about “two other employees” being beneficiaries of the criminal scheme is a strong signal that future indictments are likely.

Several news outlets are reporting that the Trump Organization and its Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg are going to be criminally indicted tomorrow by a New York grand jury. Although Trump himself is not expected to be indicted tomorrow, even Trump's lawyer, Ronald Fuschetti, said of tomorrow's indictment, "this will be their (the prosecutor's) first blow." Needless to say, this suggests that additional "blows" - additional indictments - are not far behind. Indeed, continuing Mr. Fushetti's analogy, tomorrow's indictment can be viewed as the opening bell in the long fight for justice.

As the nation waits for a possible indictment of the Trump Organization to be handed down by the New York grand jury in connection with District Attorney Cy Vance's investigations, the question is often asked - why does it seem to take prosecutors so long to indict people for their crimes? This video explains the difference between "reactive" grand jury investigations in which an arrest is made and prosecutors labor under strict court deadlines and "proactive" grand jury investigations - like those against Matt Gaetz, Rudy Giuliani, Donald Trump and others - where there is no arrest and therefore no deadlines. Here are consequences of cases the prosecutors work in the grand jury with no deadlines.

An alarming headline in Politico indicated that Trump's lawyers are saying New York District Attorney Cy Vance won't indict Donald Trump. However, Trump's lawyers then qualified their claim by saying that DA Vance told them Trump won't be indicted in the FIRST indictment expected to be handed down by the grand jury, but that the criminal investigation in ongoing. When prosecutors investigate large RICO/conspiracy/criminal organization cases, they almost always start with relatively modest indictments designed to leverage cooperation from the smaller fish. Prosecutors then build the case toward the larger criminal fish with a series of what are called superseding indictments. So do not expect to see Donald Trump indicted in the early rounds of NY indictments. This video presents an overview of the typical prosecutorial blueprint for investigating and indicting cases against corrupt organizations.

In a stunning 33-page court order, the New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division, suspended Rudy Giuliani's law license for his steady stream of what the court calls "uncontroverted lies" about the 2020 presidential election. The court sets out in excruciating detail the evidence that proves Giuliani lied about, among other things, voting in Pennsylvania, voting in Georgia, dead people voting, underage people voting, convicted felons voting, etc. The judges detailed how Giuliani lied at press conferences, at state legislative hearings, on radio interviews, podcasts, TV shows and in court. This video reviews the highlights (or perhaps lowlights) of the court's findings about Giuliani's sweeping and systematic lies designed to undermine confidence in our free and fair elections.

According to Washington Post reporting, Donald Trump and his Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Allen Weisselberg have ben seen sliding in and out of Trump Tower close in time to one another, though the two have not yet been sighted together. There is some reporting that Weisselberg is resisting cooperating against Trump. If that is the case, there are several options available to New York District Attorney Cy Vance, as discussed in this video.

There has been a rising chorus demanding accountability for Donald Trump and company for their many crimes in violation of federal law. Both Senator Elizabeth Warren and Representative Eric Swalwell are on record calling for a presidential crimes commission or task force to investigate and prosecute Trump. The Boston Globe recently published a six-part series arguing in favor of prosecution the criminal former president as the only way to save our democracy. Justice is a team sport. We The People can't just sit on the sidelines and hope for the best. We must get in the game. One concrete way to do that is to sign a letter/petition that already has been signed by more than 200,000 Americans urging Attorney General Merrick Garland to establish a task force to investigate and, where the evidence supports it, prosecute all crimes committed by Donald Trump and his criminal associates. The letter/petition can be found at freespeechforpeople.org. Please note, I have no affiliation of financial interest or involvement in the Free Speech For People nonprofit organization. I just believe in the cause of this and other nonprofit organizations that are fighting every day for a free, fair, representative democracy and a government free of crime and corruption.

President Biden's Department of Justice under the leadership of Attorney General Merrick Garland has been a mixed bag. This video reviews several recent DOJ decisions, from police department "Pattern or Practice" investigations, civil rights prosecutions and high profile subpoenas of folks like Rudy Giuliani to DOJ's decision in the lawsuit for the clearing of protestors from Lafayette Square and the recent decision in the E. Jean Carroll case. Specifically, this vide contains a review of the DOJ's legal rationale for filing an appeal in the Carroll case and the pros and cons of the position DOJ has decided to take in that case.

Donald Trump is now telling people he will be "reinstated" as president in August. He won't, of course. Here's what he's likely trying to accomplish with his latest outrageous lies. Donald Trump is a federal problem which calls for a federal solution. It's certainly a good thing that he's being criminally investigated by the states of New York and Georgia for the crimes he committed in violation of state laws. But he also must be held accountable for his federal crimes. Here's why the leadership of the Department of Justice is up to the task. *One correction: during the video I actually (and inadvertently) said "Donald Fraud" instead of "Donald Trump." Perhaps the ultimate Freudian slip.

Last year, Bill Barr and others directed that Lafayette Square be cleared of protestors who were exercising their 1st Amendment rights so then-President Donald Trump could walk across the street to stand in front of a church for a political photo-op. The ACLU filed suit on behalf of protestors and journalists that were assaulted by law enforcement officers while they cleared the way for Trump's political stunt. In a troubling move, the Department of Justice has now urged the judge to dismiss the case, claiming that Trump, Barr and other government officials have immunity from this particular lawsuit. This video presents an argument for why the suit should not be dismissed but instead should proceed to the discovery phase to, at a minimum, determine if Trump and Barr were acting within the scope of their official governmental duties when they ordered the area cleared - shutting down the protestors' exercise of their 1st Amendment rights, for a presidential photo op.

New York Attorney General Tish James made an unusual public announcement that her investigation into the Trump Organization has now changed from civil to criminal and that she is partnering with District Attorney Cy Vance. This dramatic and somewhat unusual announcement is inarguable bad for Trump and company. Here's what we know, here's what we can reasonably infer and here is a bit of informed speculation about what might have prompted this significant development.

Matt Gaetz criminal bestie Joel Greenberg pleaded guilty in Federal court in Florida today. One of the lesser discussed charges to which he pleaded guilty is "conspiracy to commit an offense against the United States." This is an ominous charge. Though the plea agreement does not disclose what crime against the US Geernberg conspired to commit or who his co-conspirator are, today's plea is the first of what will be a series of dominos that will begin falling. Given Greenberg's cooperation with prosecutors, indictment of others can't be far off.

In an exercise of propaganda that would make George Orwell blush, Georgia Representative Andrew Clyde tells the American people that the January 6 insurrection never happened and that the behavior of the people in the US Capitol that day "looked like a normal tourist visit." With those absurd statements, Congressman Clyde likely has made himself a star witness at all future trials of those who breached the Capitol, damaged property and assaulted police officers. Each defendant now has a basis to subpoena Clyde and force him to testify in their defense that there was no insurrection on January 6 and that the people in the Capitol behaved just like tourists on any other day. Here's how all this may play out in court.

In a move that may signal the beginning of the end of the Republican Party as presently constituted, Republican representatives vote to oust Congresswoman Liz Cheney from her leadership position because she refuses to adhere to The Big Lie and refuses to pledge allegiance to The Big Liar. There is no reasonable argument that ousting Rep. Cheney for telling the truth will EXPAND the Republican base or attract new voters to the Republican Party. So, rather than try to attract new voters with . . . policies, Republicans seek to win future elections by passing voter suppression laws. Here is why the Republicans will fail and why today's self-inflicted wound is a turning point for our nation.

Based on new Washington Post reporting today we've learned that "The Big Lie" was actually cooked up two years ago by a Republican political dirty trickster as a way to cast aside the will of the American voters and corruptly keep Donald Trump in power. The Republicans are insisting that all party members adhere to The Big Lie and pledge allegiance to The Big Liar or face ouster. This is yet another reason Merrick Garland's Department of Justice must move toward charging Donald Trump for his crimes. It seems like it's taking an eternity for justice to come for Trump. But we should take heart that DOJ made dramatic legal moves just one week after Lisa Monaco was confirmed by the Senate as the Deputy Attorney General. Here is why the indicators are trending toward justice.

There are two main ways mental health issues intersect with criminal prosecutions: 1. competency to stand trial and 2. insanity defenses. Here is an overview of those two features of the criminal justice system and why a "Foxitis" defense is not a legally viable defense in a criminal prosecution. However, the fact that defendants are saying they were inspired and incited to violence by the incessant lies of Donald Trump as repeated and amplified by Fox News should give the federal government, specifically the executive branch, every reason to regulate "news" outlets that peddle fiction as fact and should give the legislative branch reason to prohibit "news" outlets from peddling fiction as fact when it incites imminent violent conduct.

Judge Amy Berman Jackson issued an opinion ordering the release of a Department of Justice Office of Legal Counsel memo and related DOJ internal communications that Bill Barr claimed factored into his conclusion that Donald Trump could not be charged for the obstruction of justice offenses documented in the Mueller report. Judge Jackson's findings are scathing, criticizing the representations of Barr's DOJ in the litigation as "disingenuous" and unworthy of "credence."

We now know that both Rudy Giuliani and Matt Gaetz were on the receiving end of search warrants in investigations opened by Bill Barr's Department of Justice and presumably accelerated by Merrick Garland's DOJ. Here's a discussion of some of the evidence against Gaetz and Giuliani. Given what we know about the status of each investigation (which admittedly is not all that much), which of this two Donald Trump loyalists might be indicted first?

In a 10-minute interview on the Fox network that is pure theater of the absurd, Rudy Giuliani gets one of the most basic propositions about search warrants dead wrong as he struggles to explain away the federal search warrants that were just executed on his home and his office.

Given the recent federal search warrants for Rudy Giuliani's home, office and electronic devices, it appears federal prosecutors may be moving in the direction of criminally charging Giuliani. The next big decision for Giuliani will be whether he wants to cooperate with prosecutors to bring others to justice. If anyone knows the value of cooperation it's Rudy Giuliani, a former US Attorney. Also, might Trump secretly have granted Giuliani a pardon before leaving office? And if Giuliani has a "pocket pardon", will Attorney General Merrick Garland be willing to fight any and all corrupt pardons in court? Here's a discussion of those and related issues.

When federal prosecutors in New York previously tried to obtain search warrants for Giuliani's property they were blocked by the hierarchy in Bill Barr's Department of Justice. It now looks like the era of Bill Barr's free pass for Donald Trump associates is officially over as federal agents executed search warrants on Rudy Giuliani's home, office, computers and cell phones. In a very real sense, America just took one big step on the road to accountability and justice. Here is a nuts and bolts review of the realities of a federal judge issuing search warrants and how things might play out moving forward. One correction: toward the end of the video I mistaken say "federal agents" when I intended to say "foreign agents."

Rather than use the available provisions of the North Carolina law to seek release of the videos that show the last minutes of Edward Brown, Jr's life, the Pasquotank County Sheriff's Office decides instead to show only 20 seconds of one (of 7) videos of the fatal shooting. This is opposite of law enforcement transparency.

A Senate Committee takes up President Biden's nominees to join the US Postal Service Board of Governors. Only the Board of Governors can fire Postmaster General Louis DeJoy - you remember him, the guy who slowed mail delivery in advance of the 2020 elections.

In the wake of the guilty verdicts of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for the homicide of George Floyd there are some frequently asked question: 1. Why was Chauvin charged with three seperate homicide counts for just one killing;2. How might the judge sentence Chauvin on those three offenses of conviction;3. What is the average/guideline sentence for his crimes under Minnesota law; and4. How might the "aggravating factors" being pursued by the prosecutors impact the sentence?Here is an explainer my based on my experiences as a career homicide prosecutor.

In a story that has remained somewhat under the radar screen, AFTER Trump lost the election, he arranged to install loyalists at the Pentagon and the National Security Agency for reasons that have no obvious connection to our nation's security. Here is the sequence of events that led to the installation and almost immediate suspension of Devin Nunes's former Chief Counsel, 35-year-old Michael Ellis, as the NSA's top lawyer.

The Biden administration just revealed additional proof that the Trump campaign colluded with Russian intelligence to cheat/gain unfair advantage in the 2016 presidential election. It turns our that Paul Manafort, Trump's campaign chairman, provided confidential polling data and campaign strategy information to Konstantin Kilimnik who then provided it to Russian intelligence. But even more important than the substance of the information is the Biden administration's decision to release the information to the American public.

Search warrants require that law enforcement authorities have probable cause to believe that there is evidence of a crime in the place or thing to be searched. When the FBI and the Department of Justice apply to a federal judge for a search warrant to seize and search the cell phone of a sitting member of Congress, that is a very big deal.

Derek Chauvin presented the testimony of medical examiner/forensic pathologist Dr. David Fowler. He offered different (and often unsupportable) opinions than all other experts on George Floyd's cause and manner of death.

Several medical expert witnesses have testified in the Derek Chauvin trial involving the murder of George Floyd. One witness was a standout: expert Pulmonologist Martin Tobin. Dr. Tobin put together for the jury the 1-2-3 of George Floyd's death in a way no other medical witness has thus far. Here is a deep dive review of why Dr. Tobin's testimony was so compelling.

There is mounting evidence that Donald Trump's gross mismanagement of the coronavirus pandemic resulted in thousands, indeed hundreds of thousands, of avoidable COVID-19 deaths. It's time for state authorities in all 50 states and the District of Columbia to open investigations to hold Trump, Kushner, Pence and others Trump administration officials accountable for avoidable deaths.

The New York Times reported that Congressman Matt Gaetz is the "subject" of a sex trafficking investigation that was initiated some months ago by the Bill Barr Department of Justice. Importantly, the Times reported that Gaetz himself confirmed that DOJ prosecutors told his lawyers that he was a subject of the investigation. The term "subject" has a specific definition in accordance with DOJ rules and procedures. Here is what it means to be a "subject" of a criminal investigation, as opposed to being a "target" of an investigation or a "witness" in an investigation. Gaetz also gave a remarkable interview to Tucker Carlson of the Fox network. What Gaetz offered viewers was a nonsensical, exculpatory word salad of denial. Here is a review and takedown of two specific claims Gaetz tried to peddle to Tucker Carlson.

Billion-dollar defamation suits continue to mount against Fox News. Dominion Voting Systems is the latest plaintiff to sue Fox for defamation. Fox's litigation position will be challenging given that one of its marquee guests, Sidney Powell, has also been sued for defamation and has admitted in her reply to the suit that "reasonable people" would not have credited what she said. The federal government needs to take on news organizations that peddle fiction as fact. Here is how the government can regulate and legislate in this arena while honoring First Amendment protections of free speech and a free press.

For those of us who worked at the Department of Justice, we were shocked when we saw former Acting DC US Attorney Michael Sherwin give an interview to 60 Minutes discussing the evidence in the ongoing investigation in the Capitol attack. DOJ rules prohibit commenting on ongoing investigations without prior approval from the DOJ leadership. Given the new CNN reporting, we now know that Sherwin DID NOT get the required approval from the leadership of the Department of Justice before sitting for the 60 minutes interview. What are the consequences to the investigation and to Sherwin himself of such a flagrant violation of DOJ rules? Here are some possibilities . . .

The Department of Justice has strict guidelines that generally prohibit federal prosecutors from commenting on pending criminal investigations. Nevertheless, the Trump/Barr installed Acting US Attorney Michale Sherwin went on 60 Minutes and gave a strange and unorthodox interview. This video reviews the US Attorneys' Manual provisions governing Disclosure of Information Concerning Ongoing Investigations (section 1-7.400) and then discusses some of the revelations by Sherwin, who actually departed the DC US Attorney's Office as of Friday.

Four years ago, Bill O'Reilly asked then-President Donald Trump if Vladimir Putin is "a killer?" Trump refused to condemn Putin but instead criticized American, saying, "you think our country's so innocent?" Four years later, an American President finally answers the question, this time from George Stephanopoulos, "Is Vladimir Putin a killer?"

The FBI just arrested Julian Khater and George Tanios for participating in the January 6 attack on the US Capitol. These two insurrectionists were charged with nine counts, including assaulting the late US Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, as well as assaulting two other police officers. However, court documents reveal that they have not been charged with the homicide of Officer Sicknick. As a career DC homicide prosecutor and former Chief of Homicide at the DC US Attorney's Office, this charging decision is entirely consistent with the way we generally investigate and charge large conspiracy cases that involve potential homicide offenses.

One of the leaders of the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, Jacob "Q Shaman" Chansley, filed a motion seeking release pending trial. In the event there's any doubt that the courts are taking these criminal cases against the Trump supporters who attacked the US Capitol seriously, Judge Lamberth's 32-page order denying Chansely's request to be released from jail pending trial should lay those doubts to rest. Judge Lamberth's order is must reading for those who feel frustrated and disheartened at the way justice seems to have ben elusive in recent years.
