Summary

Fox News Host turned top prosecutor in DC, Jeanine Pirro, engaged in gross prosecutorial overreach by urging multiple grand juries to charge protestors with felonies when the facts plainly warranted only misdemeanor charges.

Fortunately, the grand jurors, sitting as the conscious of the community, refused to indict the protestors of felony crimes. So Pirro directs her prosecutors to charge the protesters with less series misdemeanor offenses.

Given how Donald Trump treated the "protestors" who attacked the US Capitol on January 6th, 2021, versus how Trump's DOJ is currently treating these two protestors, Glenn says they'll have one heck of a selective prosecution defense at their misdemeanor trials.
