George Conway and JVL discuss the Epstein files—why Trump might be hiding them, whether Ghislaine Maxwell will be rebranded as a MAGA martyr, and how the conspiracy theorists demanding answers could turn on Trump himself. They also take on Trump’s surreal accusations against Obama, the legal chaos surrounding Columbia’s $200 million settlement, and why Alina Habba’s implosion as U.S. Attorney might signal deeper dysfunction in Trump’s Justice Department.

Sarah Longwell is joined by Leah Litman, professor of law at the University of Michigan Law School and co-host of the Strict Scrutiny podcast, to discuss the Supreme Court's troubling shift toward partisanship, Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s ideological battles, and Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s decision to openly criticize the Court’s Trump-friendly rulings. Can anything fix the Supreme Court? Litman shares solutions—and why she thinks it’s past time to get angry.

George Conway and JVL break down a stunning whistleblower complaint accusing former Acting Deputy AG Emil Bove of telling colleagues the DOJ should ignore court orders and deport migrants anyway. They explore the Supreme Court’s unexplained decision enabling deportation to dangerous countries, the Kafkaesque Abrego Garcia case, and the GOP’s broader assault on Harvard. It’s a legal and political breakdown—Conway says bluntly: “The criminals are in charge.”

(Correction: At about 35:00 and at about 44:00, George and JVL misstate Bove’s position at the Department of Justice. A previous version of this description contained the same error. He was acting deputy attorney general and is now the principal associate deputy attorney general, but was never nominated to be the deputy attorney general. He has also been nominated to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals.)

George and Sarah dig into Donald Trump’s legal circus—his sociopathic impulses, his warped view of presidential power, and his team’s nonstop efforts to delay accountability. From a Ninth Circuit procedural win on National Guard deployment, to recycled immunity claims, to the latest twists in the E. Jean Carroll case, Conway and Longwell explain why Trump’s ego—not the law—drives it all.

George Conway is joined by JVL, sitting in for Sarah Longwell, to break down the legal challenges to the federal use of the National Guard in California, how the administration is not following the laws as they are written, and how Newsom can continue to challenge the overreach.  Also, they discuss the confrontation involving Senator Padilla that even shocked Corey Lewandowski, and how Trump’s silly birthday parade shows weakness.

George Conway and Sarah Longwell discuss Donald Trump’s investigation into Joe Biden’s presidency, Trump’s new travel ban on 12 countries, and Trump’s retaliation against Harvard and foreign exchange students. Also, another judge slams Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport without due process, and Trump's fight with Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society.
