Thoughts on the Epstein hearings in West Palm Beach and potential legal options for survivors. @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social

The criminal case against James Comey is almost certain to be thrown out before it ever gets to a jury. And for those who think that the Democrats did the same weaponized prosecutions of their enemies, watch this: @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social

Tulsi Gabbard sent a criminal referral of John Brennan to DOJ. Not because there’s evidence of criminal wrongdoing, but because she wants to keep her job. @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social

The Trump administration has lost yet another attempt to get voter files — this time in Massachusetts. As I discussed, 0 for 5 is not a record to be proud of: @msnowreports.bsky.social

The Trump administration has sued Harvard. Melba Pearson (the Resident Legal Diva) and I give it the full legal analysis with a few zingers along the way:

Here’s why I expect the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold Judge Boasberg’s ruling that blocks the subpoenas against Fed Chair Powell: @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social

No, the Biden Administration didn’t lock up peaceful protesters outside abortion clinics. There was a lot more to it.

It's not your father's "Democratic conspiracy" or "Democratic hoax" anymore. My interview on @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social:

Judge Schiltz's threat of contempt against ICE gets the Trump administration to back down.

Here’s the expected “mistake of fact” defense for the agents who shot Alex Pretti, and why they can still be convicted anyway.

Here’s the roadmap for prosecutors in Minneapolis, from former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner and me: @glennkirschner.bsky.social

That pesky First Amendment!

Did the ICE agent have the authority to conduct a traffic stop, or to order Renee Good out of her car? A legal dive:

The Trump Administration can conceal the evidence, but they won’t be able to stop Minnesota’s investigation.

Here's how Trump's pardon of the former Honduran president can come back to hurt the Maduro prosecution.

The link between Venezuela and Cuba:

You don’t tug on Superman’s cape…

Happy New Year from @glennkirschner.bsky.social and me! 🎊🎉 (And Go Canes! 🙌🏻)

The Ghislaine Maxwell Grand Jury Transcripts, Part 3 of 3:

The Ghislaine Maxwell grand jury transcripts, part two.

Ghislaine Maxwell’s rehabilitation tour just hit a dead end.

In drafting the Epstein Files Transparency Act, Congress failed to include an enforcement mechanism. Don’t expect its dormant “inherent contempt” power to make up for that.

She pushed her lawyers aside and filed this Habeas petition herself. It won’t work.

When it comes to Epstein, no amount of spin or talking points will quell the demand for the release of the files.

Trump and Stephen Miller’s deportation push is rattling communities nationwide, including Trump strongholds. Even Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s family has been affected. Former State Attorney Dave Aronberg unpacks the fallout and MAGA infighting. @davearonberg.bsky.social

Turns out, “manscaping” was on the to-do list for Luigi Mangione:

The Epstein files are supposed to be released by Friday, buuuuuuut…. @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social

He built a movement on fighting against the so-called “global elites.” Then he’s caught in photos with Jeffrey Epstein. The hypocrisy of Steve Bannon: @msnowreports.bsky.social

The world’s oldest and most durable hatred, antisemitism, continues its march, as history repeats itself. Weak government leaders, such as Australia’s, chose to ignore and appease, rather than confront this evil. Another horrific reminder why a safe, secure Israel must exist.

Defense lawyers for Luigi Mangione did their best this week, but there are exceptions to the warrant requirement and the evidence (and bushy eyebrows) are what they are. We discussed on @msnowreports.bsky.social:

Luigi Mangione has good lawyers and they’ve done well in court this week…but it won’t be enough to keep him out of prison.

The centerpiece of the government’s case against James Comey has now been put on ice. Yet another blow to a prosecution that was doomed from the beginning.

It was a bad week for Trump and his Acting U.S. Attorneys who were appointed to carry out his retribution. Here’s why Trump refuses to go through the Senate confirmation process that would legitimize his controversial appointments: @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social @jenniferpalmieri.bsky.social

So far, Trump‘s retribution campaign has been a big fail. And it keeps getting worse for the government in the Comey and James cases:

In a court filing, Ghislaine Maxwell reveals her next legal gambit:

Don’t ignore what’s behind Door B. It’s not the Epstein grand jury records. My interview with Alex Witt on MS NOW. @msnowreports.bsky.social

Just when you thought the guardrails were gone…then last week happened.

Happy Thanksgiving!! I’m thankful for the rule of law, on this day and always — and the judges who help protect it.

There are several reasons why the Comey case can’t be resurrected, and only one possible path for the White House to try again:

The Comey case was doomed from beginning, but now it’s getting ridiculous. @alivitali.bsky.social @waytooearly.bsky.social

One word in the Epstein Files Transparency Act could create a loophole that delays or prevents disclosure.

A recently released transcript from Thursday’s hearing shows Letitia James’s lawyer calling out acting U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan, who was standing just a few feet away. open.substack.com/pub/davearon...

A new White House strategy to prevent the release of the Epstein files:

Does Laura Ingraham’s aggressive questioning of Trump signal a Fox News shift? My video for @legalafmtn.bsky.social:

Should we believe anything that Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell say? We discussed the credibility and impact of the Epstein emails. @jheil.bsky.social @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social

You don't normally find hecklers and protesters at these stodgy legal events, but Big Law firms that cut deals with Trump are paying a price: open.substack.com/pub/davearon...
