Glenn does a deep dive into the ins and outs, and the pros and cons of immunity.

During an interview with Donald Trump for his biography called "Apprentice in Wonderland", he stated that comedian Joan Rivers voted for him in 2016, because "that's what she said". The problem is, Ms. Rivers passed away in 2014. Donald Trump is a liar, a conman, a grifter, a rapist, and a cheat. According to Glenn, given the number of voters (including self-described Trump supporters)  who have peeled away from Trump since January 6th, 2021, President Joe Biden's margin of victory in the upcoming election may just end up being twice what it was in 2020.

Trump says Comedian Joan Rivers Voted for Him in 2016: Problem is She Died in 2014

Special Counsel Jack Smith has filed another motion imploring Judge Aileen Cannon to modify Donald Trump's conditions of release to impose a gag order to protect law enforcement agents from Trump's continued lies and violence-inducing rhetoric. Glenn reviews the new court filing and discusses why gag orders will likely continue to be inadequate to address the danger that Donald Trump poses to others.

Jack Smith Doubles-Down on Trump Gag Order Request

Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Canon held an all-day hearing on a largely frivolous issue raised by Donald Trump's attorneys. At the end of the hearing, instead of ruling on the motion, Judge Cannon ordered supplemental briefs to be filed, injecting further unnecessary delay into the case. And Cannon has steadfastly refused to set a trial date. On the eve of Friday's motions, The New York Times published a blockbuster revelation, "Judge in Trump Documents Case Rejected Suggestions to Step Aside." Glenn discusses the implications of Cannon's refusal to recuse herself from Trump's case and the ongoing concern regarding her lack of impartiality.

Judge Cannon Disregards Advice from Other Federal Judges NOT to Preside Over Trump's Florida Case

Donald Trump's lawyers keep getting indicted. Two of his former lawyers, Boris Epshteyn and Jenna Ellis just pleaded not guilty to nine felony charges in Arizona state court involving, in substance, crimes they are alleged to have committed to try to help Donald Trump steal the 2020 presidential election. Glenn answers the question: why did Jenna Ellis plead not guilty when she already pleaded guilty in the Georgia state RICO case and agreed to cooperate against Trump and the other co-conspirators? Glenn also takes on the larger question of what will happen to the six unindicted co-conspirators in Trump's federal prosecution in DC, once the Supreme Court decides the absolute presidential immunity question and returns the case to Judge Tanya Chutkan for further proceedings.

Trump Lawyers Epshteyn and Ellis Plead Not Guilty in Arizona Fake Elector Case

Every single judge  (trial court judges, appellate court judges, state court judges, and federal court judges)  who has ruled on the various gag orders placed on defendant Donald Trump, has ruled that the orders were appropriate, lawful, and constitutional. Indeed, New York's highest court has refused to take up Trump's appeal on the gag order issue. But alas, Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon is about to step to the plate and take a swing at the narrow gag order Special Counsel Jack Smith has requested in Trump's Florida prosecution. On another important front, a retired judge who served on the federal bench for 27 years, just gave an interview to NPR and opined that Judge Cannon has shown "favoritism" toward defendant Trump and antagonism toward the prosecutors in the case.
