Federal Judge REJECTS Trump's Attempt To Get Rid Of Defamation Case Justice Matters With Glenn Kirschner podcast

10:47

Donald Trump's Attorney General, Pam Bondi, is now parroting the lies of her boss, saying that judges are "deranged". Although Bondi clearly is trying to undermine the public's confidence in a co-equal branch of government - the judiciary - in reality, her statements are eroding the legitimacy of the Department of Justice. Glenn takes on the questions that the media SHOULD be asking AG Bondi about her claim that judges are "deranged".

How to Stop Donald Trump's March Toward a Constitutional Crisis? Cross the Aisle to Save Democracy 8:10

As a former career prosecutor and current legal analyst, I'm not much of a comedian. But recently I was asked to participate in a pay per view event called "Not The White House Correspondents' Dinner" which is something of a celebration of independent media. Here's my shot at legal analysis that's a bit on the lighter side, though it finishes with a decidedly serious ask of the Republican Party: cross the aisle to save democracy.

Judge Finds Trump Administration/DOJ Attorneys Presented "Falsehoods" & Acted in "Bad Faith" 15:37

In a devastating new order, Judge Paula Xinis, who is presiding over the Abrego Garcia unlawful deportation case, found the following: "Defendants (the Trump administration) - and their counsel (the DOJ lawyers) - well know that the falsehood lies . . . in their continued mischaracterization of the Supreme Court's Order. . . . Defendants' objection reflects a willful and bad faith refusal to comply with discovery obligations". Glenn reviews the new order from Judge Xinis, and also discusses the implications for DOJ attorneys once a judge has made findings of "falsehoods" and "bad faith refusal to comply with discovery obligations".

Trump Tries To Get Supreme Court To Reverse Course; Here's Why It's Unlikely To Work 13:32

Donald Trump's former criminal defense attorney John Sauer, who is now the Solicitor General at the Department of Justice, filed a petition asking the Supreme Court to reverse itself and lift the block on further deportations of Venezuelan immigrants. What is both interesting and telling is that Sauer said nothing about the midnight run ICE made with busloads of detainees headed for a Texas airport as emergency litigation was underway in court. Glenn analyzes what was said - and what was omitted - from Sauer's new Supreme Court filing.

Supreme Court Puts a Late-Night STOP to the Trump Administration's Unconstitutional Deportations 12:13

In a remarkable turn of events, as Trump's ICE officers filled buses with Venezuelan immigrants and headed toward an airport in Texas, an emergency battle was being waged in court to try to prevent the Trump administration from engaging in more unconstitutional deportations. As the busloads of immigrants reached the airport exit, they turned around and headed back to the detention facility. One of Donald Trump's former criminal defense attorneys, John Sauer; (who is now the U.S. Solicitor General); filed a petition asking the Supreme Court to lift the deportation pause order. Do you think there was any mention or explanation in this new court filing of the midnight run to the airport that was thwarted? Glenn takes on that and other issues surrounding this ongoing violation of the due process clause of the Constitution.

The 4th Circuit Federal Court of Appeals has issued a scorched-earth opinion in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case. Judge Harvey Wilkinson, a Ronald Reagan appointee, called out the Trump administration for grave and upsetting constitutional violations, saying, "This should be shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses shall hold dear."

As Donald Trump continues to drag the American people to the edge of the constitutional crisis cliff in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, he's now threatening to deport American citizens to foreign prisons, and says that Attorney General Pam Bondi is "studying the law" to see if it's legal. Glenn says: AG Bondi can probably close the law book she's "studying", as it is clearly ILLEGAL to deport American citizens.

Trump Says He Will NOT Bring Abrego Garcia Back, Signaling He Will Defy the Supreme Court's Order 10:43

In an Oval Office meeting with the president of El Salvador, Donald Trump indicated that he won't bring a wrongly-deported man back from El Salvador, which would constitute a violation of a directive from the Supreme Court. As he was doubling-down on lawlessness and unconstitutionality, Trump also told the president of El Salvador that he "needs to build five more places" to hold American citizens, as Trump announced that "home-grown are next." Glenn takes on the question of what the federal judiciary may do in the coming days to address this attempt by Trump to destroy the constitutional construct of the American system of government.

Federal Judge REJECTS Trump's Attempt to Get Rid of Defamation Case 14:16

The Central Park 5, now known more accurately as The Exonerated 5, brought a defamation lawsuit against Donald Trump for stating during a presidential debate that the five men had "pled guilty", had "badly hurt someone" and had "killed someone", in connection with crimes that had been committed in Central Park in New York City. All three of Trump's assertion were untrue. Trump filed a motion to dismiss the defamation case, and a federal judge denied that motion to dismiss (with the exception of one of the counts, which the judge gave the plaintiffs leeway to correct and refile).

Trump Undercuts His DOJ Lawyers in the Abrego Garcia Deportation Case 13:14

After the Trump administration unlawfully deported Abrego Garcia to El Salvador, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to "facilitate" Garcia's release and return to the United States, and that order was affirmed by the Supreme Court. However, Trump's DOJ has been dragging its feet, claiming it can't bring Garcia back from El Salvador, and even defying a federal court order to provide the judge with information about the steps it has taken and will be taking to facilitate Garcia's return. Then, Donald Trump undercut his DOJ attorneys by saying he would bring Garcia back if ordered to do so by the Supreme Court. So much for the DOJ telling the judge it's "not possible" to bring Garcia back. Glenn reviews the new court filings and court order in the Garcia case.

The Supreme Court ordered the Trump administration to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the US after they unconstitutionally deported him to El Salvador in violation of a court order. Indeed, even the Trump administration's DOJ lawyers admitted that their deportation of Garcia was "illegal." As Justice Sotomayor wrote: "The United States Government arrested Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia in Maryland and flew him to a "terrorism confinement center" in El Salvador, where he has been detained for 26 days and counting. To this day, the Government has cited no basis in law for Abrego Garcia's warrantless arrest, his removal to El Salvador, or his confinement in a Salvadoran prison. Nor could it."
