IMPEACH. CONVICT. REMOVE.

Renee Good's Family Sues ICE Agent Who Killed Her!
In what might be the first possibility for justice for the killing of Renee Good by ICE Agent Jonathan Ross, Renee's family has filed two lawsuits: one - a wrongful death suit - against Ross, and the other, a Federal Tort Claims Act lawsuit against Stephen Miller, Kristi Nom, Tom Homan, and Greg Bovino. Glenn does a deep dive into these two lawsuits and discusses the possibility/likelihood that the federal government may ultimately seek to settle these suits rather than proceed to trial.

Todd Blanche ADMITS & Tries to Explain Why the DOJ is Violating Court Orders
Todd Blanche filed an ethics complaint against 7 federal judges in Minnesota. First of all, this is performative nonsense, and reminiscent of when the DOJ sued 15 federal judges in Maryland, only to have the lawsuit promptly thrown out. But during a press conference to announce the ethics complaint; Blanche ADMITTED that the DOJ is defying court orders, and he even tried to explain why. This conduct is the stuff of disbarment, as well as the stuff of impeachment.

Trump's Bad Day in Court
Donald Trump unconstitutionally revoked the press credentials of CNN, MS NOW, and Politico, and those three news organizations sued Trump for his unconstitutional conduct.

Glenn reviews today's court hearing and why Judge Kelly is likely to rule quickly against Trump.

Judge Calls Out Trump for Pressuring Pirro to Prosecute the Innocent for Reflecting Pool Failures!
Donald Trump gave two no-bid contracts to his cronies, which is why the reflecting pool renovation failed spectacularly! To cover up the true reason for the renovation failure, Trump pressured DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro to prosecute somebody, anybody, for the damage to the reflecting pool liner. Caving to dear leader's demands, Pirro indicted an innocent, 67 year-old former Olympic athlete, David Hearn. However, a judge dismissed the case agasint Hearn. In a new development, the judge held a hearing to determine if he should prohibit the Department of Justice from ever re-brining the criminal case against Hearn by dismissing the case "with prejudice." During the hearing, the judge said to the prosecutor, "The president of the United States is pressuring your office . . . to recharge Mr. Hearn (on) what you have decided is meritless.” I just sat down to discuss this recent court hearing with Adam Klasfeld of All Rise News. Adam was in the courtroom covering the hearing in the Hearn case.
