During the vindictive prosecution court hearing in the James Comey case, the judge told Lindsey Halligan (who had yet to speak in any court proceeding) to approach the podium. He then insisted she explain what she did with the grand jury indictment.
What became clear is that Halligan violated grand jury procedures, mistakes that are likely to invalidate the Comey indictment.
Glenn provides a first-hand account from inside the Comey courtroom.

| 0:00.0 | It's time for Justice Matters with former federal prosecutor and legal analyst Glenn Kirshman. |
| 0:15.9 | Once again, Glenn was at the courthouse for the latest hearing in the James Comey case. |
| 0:20.9 | He gives his first-hand account next on Justice Matters. |
| 0:27.5 | Hey, I'm John Fuglesing. |
| 0:29.2 | Do you ever watch these Christian nationalists and right-wing fundamentalists on TV and think, |
| 0:34.6 | Jesus Christ, these people are the opposite of Jesus Christ. |
| 0:38.3 | You know, Christianity was supposed to be about love and service, |
| 0:41.3 | but millions of Americans have grown up to find their nice religions |
| 0:44.3 | been hijacked by this mean authoritarian, tax-free click. |
| 0:48.3 | I wrote a book about how these right-wingers aren't actually on the side of Jesus, |
| 0:52.3 | and historically, they never have been. Separation of church and hate, a sane person's guide to taking back the Bible from fundamentalists, fascists, and flock-fleasing frauds. It's a very irreverent and biblically correct book for believers, atheists, agnostics, and anybody who's ever going to have to deal with a Christian extremist in your family, workplace, or government. |
| 1:15.6 | On all the issues that divide us, using actual verses from that book they claim to follow, |

| 1:38.3 | Pam Bondi and Donald Trump's Department of Justice a really bad day in court in the James Comey case. |
| 1:46.5 | So earlier today, I was in the federal courthouse in Alexandria, Virginia, and I did two |
| 1:53.6 | live videos, one right before the hearing and one right after the hearing, kind of briefly |
| 1:59.5 | recapping what went on during the Comey hearing, |
| 2:03.1 | the vindictive prosecution motion that was heard today by Judge Nachmanoff. |
| 2:08.4 | And I want to start today's Justice Matters by playing those two live clips. |
| 2:13.4 | And then we'll do a roundup of how the James Comey case went from bad to so much worse today. |
| 2:23.0 | So much worse for Donald Trump and Lindsay Halligan and Pam Bondy. |
