Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

Donald Trump created chaos in California to try to give himself a plausible reason to send troops to California. The problem is, his activation and federalization of the California National Guard violates federal law, as Glenn discusses.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Attorney General Pam Bondi and her Department of Justice lawyers said repeatedly that it was impossible to facilitate Abrego Garcia's return to the United States. Then, lo and behold, they arranged for Abrego Garcia's return to the US and waived around a two-count criminal indictment claiming that he's been involved in a criminal conspiracy from 2016 through 2025. In other words, if it's true, the first Trump DOJ let Garcia run a dangerous criminal conspiracy inside the United States with impunity during the entirety of Trump's first term. And, Garcia was in court in 2019 and the judge issued an immigration order that allowed him to reside in the United States to escape gang violence. During that hearing no conspiracy charges were brought. Glenn does a deep dive into the indictment and exposes several reasons why it looks suspect and feels more like a Pam Bondi face saving vehicle and less like a righteous prosecution.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Trump administration has been peddling to the American people that its deportation effort would focus on immigrants who had been convicted of crimes. However, new reporting suggests that is not the case.The administration is mindlessly and callously sweeping up undocumented men, women, and children. Given that statistics show undocumented workers pay an estimate $100 billion dollars in taxes each year, this aimless deportation operation will absolutely 1. hurt human beings and families, 2. hurt the US economy, and 3. hurt US tax revenue. So Trump's deportation policy is a lose-lose-lose proposition.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Donald Trump seems to be building a kind of insurrection Ponzi scheme. He has his ICE agents create chaos by engaging in callous, mindless, counter-productive immigration sweeps, then Trump says he must call up and federalize the California National Guard to quell the chaos HE CREATED! However, it appears that Trump violated federal law, which expressly requires that such "orders . . shall be issued through the governors of the states" which Trump failed to do.Accordingly, the Attorney General for California has sued the Trump administration for its unlawful actions.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

So it turns out that Donald Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and the Department of Justice lawyers were lying all along when they claimed it's impossible to return to the United States someone they wrongfully deported, because that person was in a sovereign nation and the US had no power or authority to facilitate the person's return. For the first time, the Trump administration HAS facilitated the return of a Guatemalan migrant that they had wrongfully deported to Mexico. A federal judge in Massachusetts ordered the Trump administration to "take all immediate steps" to return the man. The administration complied with that order and now the man is once again back in the US. The obvious question for Donald Trump is: was that REALLY so hard?If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In some important new reporting by Newsweek: "Major Companies Abandon Law Firms That Signed Deals with Trump". The article states "The Wall Street Journal reported on a legal luncheon at Manhattan's Cipriani restaurant in May, where Brooke Cucinella, a top lawyer at the hedge fund Citadel, told other lawyers present that they like working with lawyers who don't run from a fight." The law firms that bent a knee to Trump, capitulated to his lawlessness and, figuratively speaking, gave Trump their lunch money, are learning the hard way that giving in to a bully doesn't protect you, it encourages more bullying and it further endangers you.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

OK, so no Democrat would ever accuse Donald Trump of being a strategic thinker. But in a colossally stupid move, he blasted the very person, Leonard Leo, and the very organization, the Federalist Society, that helped deliver to him Supreme Court justices who gave him his a get-out-of-jail-free card in the form of presidential immunity.But now, because judges he appointed are regularly ruling against him, Trump has to blame SOMEONE for the performance of the judges HE appointed. Because, as we all know, the buck NEVER stops with Donald Trump.Glenn discusses why attacking Leo and the Federalist Society likely will shrink Trump's sphere of influence, especially in conservative legal circles.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Donald Trump's crime, corruption, abuse of power, and abuse office hits us daily like a firehose. It can be hard to grab hold of and focus on any one corrupt act, which is precisely why he floods the zone with corruption.Glenn takes on a particularly offensive corrupt pardon to a guy who stole money from social security, Medicare and Medicaid. Paul Walczak pleaded guilty to his crimes, was sentenced to prison and ordered to pay $4.4 million in restitution. But after Paul's mother, Elizabeth Betsy Fago attended a one million dollar a plate Mara-a-Lago fundraiser, Trump pardoned her son, shortly before he was to report to prison to begin serving his term. Adding insult to injury, the pardon negated the court's order that Walczak pay restitution for the money he stole from Social Security - the money he stole from the American people. Glenn discusses the ways a singe Trump pardon exposes at least three lies Trump has repeatedly told the American people.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

So, of course, Attorney General Pam Bondi promptly gutted the Public Integrity Section.Now, Bondi's DOJ is ratcheting up prosecutions and criminal investigation of Democrats. Trump's former personal attorney, now interim US Attorney for New Jersey, Alina Habba has charged a sitting member of Congress; New jersey Rep.

Federal judges continue to rule against the Trump administration and the Trump Department of Justice. One of the many men wrongfully/unconstitutionally deported and imprisoned in El Salvador is a young man named Widmer Josneyder Agelviz Sanguino, who had come to the United States legally with his mother and two brothers as part of a US refugee resettlement program. Nevertheless, the Trump administration deported him without due process - notice and opportunity to be heard - because he had a tattoo of a rose and a clock.As NBC News reported, "Judge ordered Trump administration to allow attorneys access to man (Widmer Josneyder Agelviz Sanguino) in Salvadoran prison."

Former FBI Director James Comey posted a picture on Instagram of seashells on a beach arranged into the numbers "8647."Several Trump officials broke into hysterics, claiming that Comey intended the post as a threat. Showing her disregard for the rule of law, the rules of criminal procedure law and the Constitution - one prominent official announced that Comey should be put "behind bars" - apparently without an investigation, indictment, jury trial or verdict.And Trump expressed his outrage, saying that "a child" would know that Comey's post was a threat.The problem is, the dictionary definition of "86" does not support Trump and company's claims. Moreover, the criminal law requires a threat to be clear, direct, unambiguous, and unequivocal to potentially support criminal charges.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Donald Trump apparently thinks the Constitution is inconvenient, getting in the way of his fervent desire to deport anyone and everyone he wants out of the United States.His latest unconstitutional scheme is to suspend the writ of Habeas Corpus, which enables people being confined by Trump's executive branch to challenge the legality of their detention.Trump and his henchmen, guys like Stephen Miller, apparently think they can unilaterally suspend habeas corpus.

During a White House meeting with the nation's governors, Donald Trump let them know, in substance, that they better get in line with some of his policies and proposals or he would cut off certain funding to their states. Maine's Governor Janet Mills would have none of it, and told Trump, "I'll see you in court." Trump replied, Good, I'll see you in court. I'll look forward to that. That should be a real easy one." Regarding that dispute between Trump and Mills, as the Guardian reported, "Win for Maine as Trump officials agree to halt school funding freeze." And as Governor Mills stated, "I told him I'd see him in court.

As if Donald Trump didn't already wear his autocratic aspirations on his sleeve, during an interview on Meet the Press - Kristen Walker asked him, as president if he "needed to uphold the Constitution", of course his answer was a democracy-busting, "I don't know".This is severe, reckless and stubborn disregard for the duties of an American president and luckily it could represent the impeachment icing atop the high-crimes-and-misdemeanor cake.At what point will the Republicans in Congress care about our Constitution and the constituents they represent?It's clear - the Republicans in congress need to cross the aisle to save democracy.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We are now squarely in constitutional crisis territory. After the Trump administration wrongfully deported Abrego Garcia to El Salvador, the Supreme Court ordered the Trump administration to facilitate his release from a prison in El Salvador and handle his case the way it would have been handled had he not been wrongfully deported.Attorney General Pam Bondi and Trump DOJ attorneys said they did not have the ability to arrange for Garcia's release and return. Yet now, Trump proved Bondi and company to be liars, as he said he absolutely could arrange for Garcia's return, but that he wouldn't.By defying the Supreme Court order, Trump is attempting to end our constitutional construct of government.Glenn reviews this legal development and argues that Trump's decision to behave like a dictator ultimately will work to his extreme detriment and lead to his downfall.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

As CNN reported previously, "Trump calls for the termination of the Constitution in Truth Social post." Well, it looks like Trump is putting his money where his mouth is, as he seems to be trying to terminate the due process rights to which we are all entitled under the 5th Amendment. The Trump administration has deported a young man named Kilmer Arbrego Garcia, even though he's a legal US resident and was protected by a court order issued in 2019, in which a judge prohibited his deportation to El Salvador. Indeed, Garcia had fled the country because, according to court filings, "he left El Salvador to escape gang violence after gangsters threatened to kill him in an attempt to extort money from his parents." The Trump administration said his deportation was an "administrative error." But shockingly, they are now saying they have no way to get him back! The 5th Amendment to the Constitution provides, "No person shall . . . be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law".
