Transcript of Letter to State Attorneys Generals and Governors Urging Investigations into Trump & Kushner for Avoidable COVID Deaths
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. It's time for accountability. It's time for justice. Because Justice Matters.

Transcript of Dominion Voting Defamation Lawsuit Against Fox News: Federal Action is Needed to Stop False News
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.

Transcript of We Now Know Trump/Barr Holdover Michael Sherwin Went Rogue, Giving Unapproved 60 Minutes Interview
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 . . .

Transcript of Strange 60 Minutes Interview w/Former Acting DC US Attorney Michael Sherwin re: Capitol Insurrection
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.

Transcript of Two Insurrectionists Arrested for Assaulting US Capitol Police Officer Sicknick BUT No Murder Charge - Here's Why
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.

Transcript of Deep Dive into Judge Lamberth's Order Jailing Insurrectionist "Q Shaman" Chansley Pending Trial
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. Here is a deep dive review of how the judiciary is viewing the severity of the attack on our Capitol and our democracy.

Merrick Garland is an experienced public corruption prosecutor and perhaps the country's primmer domestic terrorism prosecutor. Republicans likely are going to rue the day Mitch McConnell unconstitutionally deprived Judge Garland of his confirmation hearing when President Obama nominated him to be a Supreme Court justice.

Transcript of Sen. Ron Johnson's Lies in Senate Hearing into Capitol Attack Give Aid & Comfort to Insurrectionists
Senator Ron Johnson tells outrageous lies during the Senate hearing into the January 6 attack of the US Capitol. Indeed, CNN reported: "Ron Johnson just dropped a ridiculous conspiracy theory at the Senate Capitol attack hearing." Johnson's lies clearly were designed to give aid and comfort to the insurresctionists. In this video we tackle the following question: do Johnson's lies constitute the federal offense of Accessory After the Fact, in violation of 18 US Code, Section 3?

Transcript of Biden Asks All But Two US Attorney's to Resign. THIS is a Good News Story in More Ways than One
As The Washington Post and other news outlets are reporting, President Biden will be asking for the resignation of all Trump-appointed US Attorneys, with two exceptions.As a career federal prosecutor serving under every president from Reagan through Trump, I can attest to the fact that it is entirely usual for each new incoming presidential administration to ask current US Attorneys to resign so the new president can appoint US Attorneys who share and will implement his law enforcement priorities. This video explains that process. However, President Biden did something remarkable, he pledged to leave in place two current US Attorneys to avoid even the appearance of impropriety. In this video, I explain why President Biden's actions in this regard give me patriotic goosebumps and prove that We The People finally have the government we deserve: honest, fair, just, ethical and devoted to equal justice for all. And Justice Matters.

Transcript of Trump's Healthcare Hypocrisy, Chris Christie's Arrogant Superiority & the Virus' Indifference To It All
Ignoring all advice from the Center for Disease Prevention and Control, Trump gathers the rich, the powerful, the influential and the connected together at the White House for a special super-spreader event. The "masters-of-the-universe" crowd (h/t to Thomas Wolfe's Bonfire of the Vanities), decides to ignore all CDC guidance: no masks, packed shoulder-to-shoulder, lots of hugs and kisses. The political titans apparently believe that their wealth, status and influence serve as a magical shield, protecting them from the coronavirus. Now, one after another, they are testing positive. On another front, Trump has no less than 10 doctors in crisp, white lab coats closely and carefully monitoring his every vital sign as he sends DOJ attorneys into court to fight like hell to take health care away from tens of millions of America. Donald Trump's deadly hypocrisy is the height of callousness.If you are interested in supporting our content, please consider becoming a #TeamJustice patron at: https://www.patreon.com/glennkirschnerMy podcast, "Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner" can be downloaded where you get your podcasts.Follow me on: https://www.twitter.com/glennkirschner2 https://www.Facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirschner2Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/glennkirschner)

Transcript of The Upcoming Durham Report, Election Interference and Other Bill Barr Abuses
Bill Barr tasked U.S. Attorney John Durham with going on a witch hunt - investigating the Trump-Russia investigators - in efforts to undermine the origins of the Russia investigation, notwithstanding the fact that the Mueller Report AND the DOJ Inspector General (IG) Horowitz report AND the Senate Intelligence Committee reports all concluded that the Trump-Russia investigation was properly opened. Barr is looking for a different answer - one that helps Trump and hurts Biden. Hence, the Durham investigation. One of Durham's top prosecutors, Nora Dannehy, abruptly resigned due to Barr pressuring Durham to issue an interim report PRIOR TO the election. Barr conduct is dead wrong in two ways: first, prosecutors do not issue reports. In my 30 years as a federal prosecutor, I never once issued a report. Second, nothing should be done by prosecutors within 60 days of a presidential election that could impact public opinion about the candidates. Barr violates all DOJ norms, protocols, traditions and ethical standards by pressuring Durham to issue an interim report so close to the election.If you are interested in supporting our content, please consider becoming a #TeamJustice patron at: https://www.patreon.com/glennkirschnerFollow me on: https://www.twitter.com/glennkirschner2 https://www.Facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirschner2Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/glennkirschner)

Transcript of Unpacking the Federal Courts
We all know that Mitch McConnell has been packing the courts with ideologues, including several judges rated "not qualified" by the American Bar Association to serve as federal judges. The judicial candidates identified by McConnell and nominated by Donald Trump have inarguably degraded the quality of the federal judiciary.This episode discusses a three-part plan to unpack the courts. After nearly four years of Donald Trump's reign, it's become apparent that we can no longer rely on the federal government to police itself. The concept of checks and balances, and coequal branches of government is becoming a distant memory.If you are interested in supporting our content, please consider becoming a #TeamJustice patron at http://www.patreon.com/glennkirschnerSubscribe to my YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/glennkirschner2Follow me on Twitter: http://www. twitter.com/glennkirschner2Follow me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2
