Donald Trump's former lawyer Rudy Giuliani is a co-conspirator in his federal case in Washington DC and a co-conspirator in his RICO case in Georgia. BUT - there are still no signs that he's cooperating with prosecutors and flipping on his former boss. Glenn says that's ok because he wouldn't be a good witness anyway. Then he talks about his current attorneys who are again acting more like campaign managers. They claim they need 3 years to prepare for his federal trial in Washington DC for trying to overturn Biden's win in the 2020 election. Glenn says they also want more time to intimidate, harass, and threaten all the people involved.

In today's longform podcast - Glenn talks about Donald Trump's continued dangerous rhetoric which is inspiring and inciting his supporters to violence. He discusses the recent threats against Judge Tanya Chutkan and the Georgia grand jurors. He explains how detaining Trump pending trial will help neutralize the ongoing threat. Then, dueling trial date proposals in Trump's DC prosecution - Glenn discusses Jack Smith proposing January 2nd 2024 and Trump's defense attorneys absurdly proposing April 2026. Next, after being released by the DC judge and being told that the "most important condition of his release" was that he NOT commit any crimes - federal, state or local - while on release, Trump almost immediately violated those conditions by unlawfully attempting to influence a grand jury witness in Georgia. Glenn says this should result in Trump being revoked on release and detained pending trial. Then finally, as victims of Trump's conspiracy to deprive the American people of their voting rights, American voters have federal statutory rights under the Crime Victims' Rights Act to view the January 6th trial and many people feel it should be aired live on TV for everyone to watch. Glenn says you should copy the following paragraph and send it to your elected officials because you have a right to watch it and MAGA should see what he actually did.

Dear _____________ (elected official),

In Count 4 of his most recent indictment, Donald Trump is charged with victimizing the American voters by conspiring to deprive us of our right to vote. As crime victims, the American people have a right "not to be excluded" from Trump's trial, which will be held in Washington, DC. I am asserting my rights under the Crime Victims' Rights Act, 18 US Code section 3771(a)(3), not to be excluded from the trial. Given that the courtroom has a limited capacity, if the trial is not televised, I will be excluded from the courtroom in violation of my federal legal statutory rights. Accordingly, I respectfully request that you do everything in your power to ensure that my legal right to attend Donald Trump's trial is not violated. Thank you

Sincerely,

Donald Trump and 18 others have now been indicted by an Atlanta grand jury. They face sweeping racketeering charges stemming from their efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Glenn breaks down the details of the indictment and explains the punishments if found guilty. Trump now has 2 indictments for attempting to steal Joe Biden's win in the 2020 election. Glenn explains the differences and similarities between Jack Smith's federal indictment and Fani Willis' Georgia state indictment. And then finally, he spells out the very distinctive rules regarding pardons in Georgia and it's not good news for Trump.

Donald Trump posted on his social media platform that Georgia’s former Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan “shouldn’t” testify in grand jury proceedings this week regarding allegations that Trump attempted to overturn the 2020 election results in the state and some legal analysts are saying the post could be witness intimidation or tampering. Witness tampering is against the law and he was warned by a federal judge not to do so. Glenn says Trump is influencing a witness and according to Georgia state law is subject to felony charges. During Trump's arraignment hearing in Washington DC the magistrate judge told him he is not to commit any crime while on release. But he continues to tamper with witnesses. Glenn wonders if he is he inching closer to pre-trial detention?

During Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigations in January - we just learned he obtained a search warrant that ordered Twitter to hand over documents relating to Donald Trump's profile. Glenn says Smith likely gleaned other electronic evidence as well. Then, the judge in the federal January 6th case - Tonya Chutkan, said that Trump's political campaign has to yield to the orderly administration of justice and she warned him against inflammatory statements with those involved in the case. But Trump is continuing to post incendiary rhetoric. Is Trump daring her for a speedy trial or outright contempt of court?

In today's longform weekend podcast - Glenn gives us an update on Donald Trump's federal election interference trial. First, Special Counsel Jack Smith proposes a speedy trial date in the DC case to fulfill the people's right. Glenn talks about how the Speedy Trial Act has taken the spotlight and in the court filing by the DOJ - he discusses how Jack Smith corrects Trump's attorney John Lauro, on who the Speedy Trial Act actually benefits. Then, people are saying Lauro is acting more like a campaign chairman than a lawyer - spreading Trump's propaganda in and out of court. Glenn explains why that's unprofessional and says he should be referred to the Bar Counsel for misconduct. And finally, many people feel the January 6th trial should be aired live on TV for everyone to watch. Glenn says you should copy the following paragraph and send it to your elected officials because you have a right to watch it.

Donald Trump's lawyer, John Lauro, is going on TV trying to undermine the public's confidence in the January 6th election interference case by discrediting the judge, the prosecutors, and the courts. Glenn reminds us: Judge Chutkan don't play. During a TV interview on NBC - Lauro claimed Trump only made a technical violation of the constitution but didn't actually commit a crime. Constitutional Law Scholar Congressman Jamie Raskin says it's still a violation. Glenn says "Don't buy into the propaganda of Donald Trump".

When Donald Trump was arraigned on his recent criminal indictment for election interference - the magistrate judge instructed him that he is not to tamper with witnesses. But directly following this Trump posted "If you go after me, I'm coming after you!". Special Counsel Jack Smith, siting this post, requested a protective order asking Judge Chutkan to bar him from disclosing evidence to the public. Glenn explains what a Show Cause order is. He says Judge Chutkan will not fall for Trump's excuses for his threatening posts. Glenn wonders if he will post threats again, violating the order not to tamper with witnesses and be sent to jail.

Donald Trump has finally been indicted for trying to overturn the 2020 election. Glenn says he watched the arraignment from the overflow courtroom in Washington D.C. First off - he gives us a review of the charges in the indictment and how much time Trump is facing if he is found guilty. Then he describes the character of the judge presiding over the case - Tanya Chutkan - who he met in court back when he was a federal prosecutor. Glenn says Trump has met his match. Next, the indictment mentions by description 6 unnamed co-conspirators. Glenn ponders why they are listed in the indictment but not charged? Then, Glenn discusses whether Trump's election interference trial should be televised. And finally, he gives an overview of the arraignment from inside the courtroom.
