Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

Donald Trump's pick for Attorney General, Matt Gaetz, has withdrawn his name from consideration after it became clear that the Senate Republican would no go along with Trump's desire to install Gaetz as the nation's top law enforcement official. Importantly, this is the second defeat that Senate Republicans delivered to Trump, after refusing to go with Trump's pick for Senate Majority Leader, Rick Scott. Will Senate Republicans keep standing up to Trump as he tries to tear down the institutions of government? Or will they begin bending a knee to future whims of their dear leader?

NBC News has reported that as many as 30 Senate Republicans are saying they won't confirm Donald Trump's pick for Attorney General - Matt Gaetz. Will the Senate protect their own constituents and the American people as a whole against this unqualified, dangerous pick? Or will they fold like a cheap lawn chair and give in to Trump?

With reporting that Special Counsel Jack Smith is "winding down" his two federal prosecutions of Donald Trump, the question becomes: can Jack Smith preserve the cases to be prosecuted once Trump leaves office? Newsweek reported, "Jack Smith May be Able to 'Revive' Donald Trump Cases" according to legal analyst Barbara McQuade. Glenn discusses the 3 main options for Jack Smith in deciding what to do with Trump's two pending federal criminal cases.

In a move that seems exactly calculated to turn the Department of Justice into his own personal law firm, (as he tried to do in the past), Donald Trump has named three of his personal criminal defense attorneys to some of the highest leadership positions at the DOJ. Glenn discusses the dangers of having a Department of Justice that is doing the work of a corrupt president rather than doing the work of the American people.

In a move that caused an eruption of REPUBLICAN in-fighting, Donald Trump named Matt Gaetz as his pick for Attorney General of the United State of America. Politicians, left, right and center, promptly spoke out in recognition of one unassailable truth - Gaetz is not qualified to be AG.

So what's really going on here? Well, the House Ethics Committee was preparing to release an ethics investigation into Gaetz this Friday. But if Gaetz resigned from Congress, the House loses its jurisdiction over him, such that the ethics report would never see the light of day. So . . . Gaetz resigned from Congress after just winning reelection.

Interestingly, other members of Congress - Senator Rubio and Rep. Stefanik, for example - were named as Trump picks and they DIDN'T resign from Congress.

Glenn says: It's pretty obvious what's really going on here.

Ever since a New York jury found Donald Trump guilty of 34 felony crimes involving falsifying business records to cheat in the 2016 presidential election, we've been waiting for the case to proceed to sentencing.

We were expecting a ruling from the presiding judge, Juan Merchan, on November 12th on Trump's motion to dismiss based on the Supreme Court's presidential immunity ruling. But Judge Merchan just pushed the deadline from November 12th to November 19th, with Trump's sentencing date still being set for November 26th. Glenn discusses the reasons for this one-week delay and the options Judge Merchan has available to him come sentencing time.

We are looking for points of light wherever we can find them. Today's legal development provides a point of light from a most unlikely place - the US Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court refused to disturb the rulings of lower federal court judges that Meadows' conduct and crimes to help Trump try to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia were not part of Meadows' official duties as Chief of Staff to Trump. Glenn discusses the implications of this legal development.

State governors and attorneys general have been coming together and pledging to protect the citizens of their respective states in the event the future Trump administration engages in abuses, overreach or lawlessness. Glenn discusses the 10th Amendment and how we need to look for the points of light that will pierce the coming darkness.

Rudy Giuliani has been playing games in his attempt to avoid turning over his assets and property to the two Georgia state election workers, Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman, a jury said he defamed, and ordered him to pay $146 million in damages. The federal judge overseeing enforcement of the money judgement, Judge Lewis Liman, has told Giuliani and his lawyers that their arguments as to why Giuliani has failed to comply with the court's order to give over his assets are "farcical." Judge Liman told Giuliani to give over the assets or be held in contempt of court. Glenn goes through Rudy's "farcical' explanations and excuses for not turning over assets, as he's been ordered to do, and he also discusses the law of contempt and what it may mean for Rudy Giuliani.
