Welcome, everybody, to the Jim Acosta show. It is Friday. As you can see, Justice Warrior, Glenn

Kirchner is with us. Glenn, great to see you as always. It's been too long. We should have been

doing this a lot more frequently. But I'm happy to say that you're going to be at the live

proved crime after crime after crime after crime. They would tend to throw up their hands. They'd begin to

sit back, but they didn't throw up their hands because

they felt like their participation was futile. They threw up their hands because they were like,

listen, we're convinced these, you know, RICO gang members committed tons and tons and tons of

crime. And so when they would go back to deliberate on all of this crime, they had the very

real ability to impact and bring consequences to the evidence they saw. So if there was any
