1
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to wok F Daily with

2
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: Meet your Girl Danielle Moody recording back in the home Bunker, folks,

3
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: I got to tell you that, you know, the last

4
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 1: several weeks, several months, to think that we're only five

5
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: months into twenty twenty three, and the weight and the exhaustion,

6
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: the anxiety, the fear, the trauma that we have been

7
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:45,919
Speaker 1: subject to because of the terrorist organization formerly known as

8
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: the Republican Party. Republicans have shown America through their legislative

9
00:00:54,200 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 1: push to criminalize LGBTQ people, to erase trans people, to

10
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: cause irrevocable harm to the LGBTQ community. They have shown

11
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 1: us through their willingness and zeal at banning books and curriculum,

12
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: at displacing tenured teachers, at displacing heads of universities, and

13
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: instead putting in corporate cronies, like they have done recently

14
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: at the University of Minnesota with the new president. Instead

15
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: of hiring an oh I don't know, an academic, have

16
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 1: now hired the former CEO or Hormel in order to

17
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: be the president of this university. Republicans are on a path,

18
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: on a war path to destroy everything that makes America America.

19
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: They are on a path to destroy liberty, freedom and

20
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: justice for all. They are on a path to destroy

21
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: the bodily autonomy of women of trans people. They are

22
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: on the war path to create heightened racism and violence

23
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: and the birth of militias through their continued loosening of

24
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: gun regulations in states like Texas, whose mass shootings are

25
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: like number one in the country. And at this time,

26
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: while Republicans continue to show you who they are by

27
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: voting to expel members of their government body because they

28
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: don't like their ideology, they don't like the truth that

29
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: they speak, whether again that be in Tennessee or in Montana. Folks,

30
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: the Republican Party is at war and they are telling

31
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: us every single day with every piece of life legislation,

32
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: with every kudos, every bit of support, back pats and

33
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: ring kisses that they give to Donald Trump, a man

34
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: who is currently on trial for rape. And as I

35
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: speak right now, the jury is out deliberating whether or

36
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: not they are going to side with Egene Carol or

37
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,679
Speaker 1: with Donald Trump, who, by the way, has been accused

38
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: of sexual assault and harassment by over twenty five women.

39
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: But CNNC's fit to give this motherfucker prime time, a

40
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: primetime town hall. Tell me how the public would react if,

41
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: at the height of the me too movement against Harvey Weinstein,

42
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: if CNN decided to have a sit down one on

43
00:03:54,960 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: one with Harvey. I call on all civil liberty organizations,

44
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: women's groups, LGBTQ groups, civil rights organizations to call for

45
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: a boycott of CNN. You see all of these networks.

46
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: They've based their decisions on money, they based their decisions

47
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: on ratings, and if the people decide to take it,

48
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 1: then maybe they will do it about face. But the

49
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 1: reality is, in any other country, if you had a

50
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 1: political party moving in the way that Republicans have been

51
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: moving since Donald Trump came down that fucking escalator, they

52
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: would have been labeled a terrorist organization. We don't do

53
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: it because the Republican Party is filled with white men, right,

54
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: and they're the ones that get to write the laws

55
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,160
Speaker 1: and break the laws and rewrite them for a other

56
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: fucking people. I am telling you that it is time

57
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: for the people, for the people to regain the power

58
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,799
Speaker 1: in this country, power that we never really truly had,

59
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 1: but we were made comfortable enough. But now this terrorist organization.

60
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: The only thing that they have on the menu is cruelty.

61
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: The only thing that they have on the menu is

62
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: over policing, banning books, banning queer people, banning abortion, banning curriculum,

63
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: and instituting authoritarianism and fascism. Donald Trump is going to

64
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: be holding a campaign rally with known anti Semites. They

65
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: have top billing at this event, along with his fucking spawn.

66
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: We need to stop treating Republicans as if they are legitimate.

67
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: They stand for violence, they stand for rape, they stand

68
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: against abortion, they stand against democracy. There is no mincing

69
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: words about it. There is no working across the aisle

70
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: because the only work that Republicans are interested in is

71
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: destruction and undermining this country. And also with the debt ceiling,

72
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: fucking chicken game that they're playing, putting the world's economy

73
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: at risk so that they can figure out a way

74
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 1: to bring back their fucking cheeto martyr. Folks, you hear

75
00:06:55,080 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: that sound going off, You feel that tingling sensation. That

76
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: is the alarms going off both internally and externally. We

77
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: are at level hot fucking red right now in this country.

78
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: The folks of Texas need to take a page out

79
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: of those that were in Tennessee and take it to

80
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 1: the fucking streets. While people are being gunned down as

81
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: they're shopping at a mall, your fucking governor is passing

82
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: legislation that doesn't even require any training whatsoever to have

83
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: a gun, because it's all a part of their plan

84
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: to build their white supremacist militias that will go ahead

85
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: and enforce their autocratic rule. Folks, Wake up, Wake up,

86
00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: because there is no motherfucking quiet part anymore. Coming up next,

87
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: my conversation with our good friend who is stopped by

88
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: wok F Daily MSNBC legal analysts, former federal prosecutor and

89
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: the host of Justice Matters, Glenn Kirshner. Folks, I am

90
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: very happy to welcome back to WOKF Daily our friend,

91
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: MSNBC legal analyst, former federal prosecutor, and the host of

92
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: Justice Matters, Glenn Kirshner. Glenn, it has been a while,

93
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: and in that time there has been just a world

94
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: win of legal news, and I don't even know if

95
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,599
Speaker 1: we call it legal news anymore. We just call it

96
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: crime in news. I mean, from Clarence Thomas and the

97
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: Supreme Court and the major griff there to Donald Trump. Currently,

98
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 1: the juries and deliberation for the Egen King rape allegations

99
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: and defamation suit. And a judge just issued an order

100
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: in the Manhattan District Attorney's k with regard to the

101
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 1: thirty four felony indictments placed a gag order on Donald Trump.

102
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: And I want you to be able to just explain

103
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: what this gag order is and why. I mean, I mean,

104
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: I have thought that Donald Trump should have been gagged

105
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: a long time ago, but why this is happening now

106
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 1: and will what could be the repercussions of it if

107
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: he breaks said gag order.

108
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 2: So I think the.

109
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 3: Reason we're seeing a gag order now, it's sort of

110
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 3: the cumulative effect of everything Donald Trump has been posting

111
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 3: and saying. Most recently, he posted that Joe Biden and

112
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 3: Merrick Garland illegally unleashed Alvin Bragg and Fawnie Willis and

113
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 3: New York Attorney General Letitia James on me, Donald Trump

114
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,559
Speaker 3: to stop me from winning the twenty twenty four election.

115
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 3: There are so many lies packed into that sentence. One,

116
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 3: it is designed to gain unfair advance for Donald Trump

117
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 3: in the twenty twenty four election by suggesting Biden and

118
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 3: Garland have control over state prosecutors and they have unleashed

119
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 3: them on Donald Trump.

120
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 2: That's absolute bs.

121
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 3: And look, Donald Trump has been endangering judges and their families,

122
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 3: prosecutors and their families, grand jurors, trial jurors, witnesses, and

123
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 3: Alvin Bragg's prosecutors said enough, we are preparing to give

124
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 3: over discovery. And what discovery is in a criminal case

125
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 3: is they package up all of the relevant information and

126
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 3: evidence that they are required under the rules to provide

127
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 3: to the defendant and they give it over.

128
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 2: Well, what will Donald Trump do with it?

129
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 3: Once he gets his grubby, little and I do mean

130
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 3: little hands on that evidence, He'll begin posting it, He'll

131
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 3: begin lying about it, He'll begin boxing people. He will

132
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 3: not so subtly earn his supporters to get after them.

133
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 3: And so that's what prompted Alvin Bragg's team to say, Judge,

134
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 3: we're moving for a gag order, really more precisely a

135
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 3: protective order, saying Donald Trump can't post, can't talk about,

136
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 3: can't misuse all of this information we are about to

137
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 3: give him. And Judge Mersham agreed and issued a couple

138
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 3: of different kinds of protective orders, one saying Donald Trump

139
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 3: and he names Trump specifically, not just the defense team.

140
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 3: You can't post anything about any of it, and by

141
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 3: the way, you can't copy it, you can't photograph it,

142
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 3: you can't retain it. And in fact, the stuff that

143
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 3: the prosecutors label as limited disclosure information, you're not even

144
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 3: allowed to look at it without being babysat by your

145
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 3: defense attorneys because you're a petulant little child. I mean,

146
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 3: the fact that these kind of protective orders and limitations

147
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 3: have to be put in place for a former president

148
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 3: of the United States is insane. Usually do this kind

149
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 3: of stuff in violent crime cases or in rico cases. Well, now,

150
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 3: welcome to that ignoble club Trump, you violent criminals and

151
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 3: mafia folk.

152
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: You know, I think that it's wild to that mainstream

153
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: media is not discussing that right that we continue to

154
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 1: move through this as if the precautions that are being

155
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: taken are totally normal, like, oh, this happens in every case.

156
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: You would think that with the president of the United States,

157
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 1: you're being held right to a much higher standard of

158
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: behavior and that we would rely upon you to ensure

159
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: the safety of people by telling your rabid followers to

160
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: stand the hell down. But that's not what Donald Trump does.

161
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: It has been the pattern of behavior since he was

162
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: in office and out of office, and so you know, well, Glenn,

163
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 1: I am. I love to say that, oh we'll never see,

164
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,719
Speaker 1: and I stopped doing that during the entire Trump administration

165
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: is we have seen judges be targeted, their families be targeted.

166
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,959
Speaker 1: We've seen them have family members that have lost their

167
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: lives and judges that have lost their lives. What happens

168
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: if Donald Trump impedes this gag order? If Donald Trump

169
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: continues to do what he's been doing on the campaign trail,

170
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: which is essentially lift up these very violent people. Right,

171
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: he had the January sixth choir in Waco, Texas. Right,

172
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 1: you have just now I want to make the connection

173
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: for the folks the shooter, the murderer in Alan, Texas

174
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: at the mall shooting had on the what was it?

175
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: Right wing death squad badge that was worn and sold

176
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: on the Proud Boys website. Right, these are the folks

177
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: that Donald Trump hold to stand back and stand by.

178
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,719
Speaker 1: These are the folks that Donald Trump has said are

179
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 1: good people. Right. So I mean I am very scared. Right,

180
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,079
Speaker 1: I'm scared for Alan Bragg. I'm scared for this judge.

181
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: What happens if this order is broken, and you know,

182
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: what are the protections that are in place in this

183
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 1: really erratic time when, even if it isn't Donald Trump,

184
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: we know we're seeing what's happening with the people who

185
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 1: support him.

186
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 3: So Judge Marshawn has an array of possible steps he

187
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 3: can take. I'm going to say when Donald Trump violates

188
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 3: this protective order, not if Donald Trump will violate it.

189
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 3: He could do nothing. He could just let it go,

190
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 3: which will embolden Donald Trump. He could haul Donald Trump

191
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 3: back in before the court and he could increase the

192
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 3: limitations or the restrictions. He could place one hundred percent

193
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 3: gag order on him, saying you have demonstrated an unwillingness

194
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 3: or inability to abide by lesser gag orders or protective orders.

195
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 3: I am now ratcheting it up. And the next step,

196
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 3: if you continue to violate it, I will consider the

197
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 3: prosecutor's request to step you back detain you because you

198
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 3: can't be trusted to abide by court orders. Now, that

199
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 3: is a pretty significant penalty, and he could short of that,

200
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 3: he could hold him in contempt and order him to pay,

201
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 3: you know, a fine, which Donald Trump won't care about.

202
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 2: He'll fundraise off it and probably end up with a

203
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 2: gain at the end of the day.

204
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 3: If the court orders find the only thing to do

205
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 3: with people who are inciting and inspiring imminent violence is

206
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 3: detained them take their bullhorn away. And I haven't seen

207
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 3: an appetite in our prosecutors or our judiciary to do

208
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 3: the hard work, the forward leaning work of stopping this

209
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 3: rampant violence that is being sort of advocated for every day.

210
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 3: Why the Proud Boys organization isn't designated a terrorist organization

211
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 3: and then we go after not only the organization but

212
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 3: those who kind of spout off violent rhetoric likely to

213
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 3: and designed to inspire imminent violence is beyond me.

214
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 2: You know.

215
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 3: I keep thinking that we are so concerned that if

216
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 3: we do something and will be criticized for stepping the

217
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 3: toe over the constant to shell a ligne, violating somebody's

218
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 3: free speech rights. If we do anything to curb the

219
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 3: rampant gun violence in this country and we're criticized, you know,

220
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 3: stepping a toe over the Second Amendment, Danielle, We're going

221
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: to freedom ourselves to death.

222
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 2: Come on, if we don't start.

223
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 3: Taking action to stop this nonsense, does.

224
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 1: This gag order to glunt. Does it pertain to the

225
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 1: lawyers using their his lawyers using their bully pulpit using

226
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: social media. That's one question. And then the other one

227
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 1: is we also know that, you know, his spawn continue

228
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: to spout and share a lot of violent rhetoric on

229
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: social media, What if anything would be done to them?

230
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm reading through the motion right here. I do

231
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 3: believe it. There's no loophole.

232
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 2: For the lawyers to percept what Donald Trump can't post. Okay,

233
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 2: And frankly I don't.

234
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 3: I don't think even as you know, poor you know,

235
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 3: in the performance sense, as poor as the you know,

236
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 3: Joey Takapine is and these kind of guys are, I

237
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 3: don't think they would be the ones violating the court order.

238
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 3: I think it's all about Trump. But if they do,

239
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 3: they could you know, there are some additional possible sanctions

240
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 3: because they could be referred to their own bar council

241
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 3: for sanctions, for suspension, for fines, and ultimately for disbarment

242
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 3: if it's a an egregious enough transgression.

243
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:37,879
Speaker 2: So, you know, the.

244
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 3: Judge Marshawn has taken an important first step. And here's

245
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 3: the thing. We are making incremental progress. I know it

246
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,439
Speaker 3: doesn't feel like it, but he has been tried for

247
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 3: sexual assault and defamation, and a jury is deciding his guilt,

248
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 3: not his guilt, but deciding who to rule for e

249
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 3: Gen Carrol or Donald Trump, a former president, has now

250
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 3: been tried for or sexual assault and defamation. He has

251
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 3: been criminally indicted for thirty four felony accounts of creating

252
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 3: false business records why to steal the presidency. This is

253
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 3: not creating false business records because you're trying to keep

254
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,360
Speaker 3: a little bit of money that you really should pay

255
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 3: to the government in taxes.

256
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 2: Now, this was.

257
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 3: False business records designed to steal the presidents. He's criminally indicted.

258
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 3: Now we have a new first. We have him with

259
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 3: a gag order prohibiting him from misusing the evidence he's

260
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 3: about to get in discovery. We're making progress. It doesn't

261
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 3: feel like it, but we are making progress.

262
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,479
Speaker 1: Glen. In the time that we haven't spoken to you know,

263
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 1: I want to head down now, just mentally to Georgia

264
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: where the DA down there. Bonnie Willis issued a statement

265
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 1: which I at the time thought was weird, you know, bizarre,

266
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: issued a statement saying that the decision of whether or

267
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: not to indict is going to happen between July and

268
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 1: September of this year, and was putting the law enforcement

269
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: on months notice. Glenn, what did you make of that statement?

270
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 1: Was it? Like, why would Fannie Willis make it so

271
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: many months in advance? Why do you think that that

272
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: was necessary?

273
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 3: It had nothing to do with putting law enforcement on notice.

274
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 3: She could have had a behind closed doors meeting right

275
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 3: saying okay, folks, you know indictments are coming in July.

276
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 3: That wasn't for law enforcements benefit, my benefit, your benefit.

277
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 3: It was for the benefit of the twenty plus targets

278
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 3: of her criminal investigation. She put them directly on notice

279
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 3: with this letter that you all have until July to

280
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 3: come in cooperate. You know, probably take a little bite

281
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 3: of the criminal charges that you have coming your way,

282
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:10,239
Speaker 3: but you'll be able to reduce your exposure significantly if

283
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,880
Speaker 3: you plead guilty and begin cooperating so I can work

284
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,959
Speaker 3: my way up the criminal ladder. This was a pr

285
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 3: move designed to pressure the twenty plus targets of her investigation.

286
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 3: Had nothing to do with putting law enforcement on notice.

287
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: Now, is that a risky move in your opinion? Like,

288
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: because again, isn't that something that could have been directly

289
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,360
Speaker 1: sent to the folks who have been asked to come

290
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: in to provide their deposition over the course of these many,

291
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 1: many months. Isn't that something that could have been done

292
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 1: in private? What does it mean to do it in

293
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: such a public way.

294
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 3: It doesn't become real to many criminal targets of a

295
00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 3: grand jury's investigation until it is out there the public square,

296
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 3: because then they're going to understand that. Fawnie Willis just

297
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 3: put herself on the line and said, I don't think

298
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 3: she really said, and I don't know that you have

299
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,640
Speaker 3: to read between the lines that I'll make a decision

300
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 3: whether to prosecute people in July. She said, law enforcement

301
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 3: buckle up charges are coming in July. That was the

302
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 3: I think thrust of her letter. Once that's put out

303
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 3: there publicly by the district attorney, the targets know it's coming,

304
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 3: rather than well, you know what, we're still kind of

305
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 3: dealing behind closed doors. I'm thinking maybe my attorney can

306
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 3: still keep me from being indicted.

307
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 2: At no, No, you.

308
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 3: Got sixty days and then you're gonna find yourself on

309
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 3: the other side of the v.

310
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 2: Georgia v. You what you're gonna do.

311
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 1: So in this time too, Glenn, we have now seen Enriquaetorio,

312
00:22:56,160 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: the Proud Boys and three other members can victed found

313
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 1: guilty on conspiras on a seditious conspiracy, which you and

314
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: I have talked about so many times because it's a

315
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:15,199
Speaker 1: difficult charge to bring and to prove. So now multiple

316
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 1: people from the Oath Keepers to the Proud Boys right

317
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 1: have been found guilty of seditious conspiracy. Again, how does

318
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 1: this these convictions, these guilty charges fall on the Department

319
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 1: of Justice and the work that Smith is doing.

320
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, so this is something I call atmospheric precedent. You know,

321
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 3: legal precedent technically means when an appellate court decides a

322
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 3: case hands down an opinion, all the lower courts are

323
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 3: obliged to follow that precedent. That's what precedent means most

324
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:56,479
Speaker 3: precisely in the law. But atmospheric precedent is when you know,

325
00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 3: juries return verdicts in cases that are related to other

326
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 3: cases and other people. And here's where I think the

327
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 3: Department of Justice gets the biggest bump from the Proud

328
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 3: Boy's convictions. Enrique Tario was convicted of seditious conspiracy and

329
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 3: a whole bunch of crimes that were committed at the

330
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 3: Capitol on January sixth, And he was not at the

331
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 3: capital on January.

332
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 2: Sixth, He wasn't even in DC.

333
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,159
Speaker 3: You know who else wasn't at the Capitol but was

334
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 3: but is responsible for what happened there on January sixth,

335
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 3: Steve Bannon, Mike Flynn, Roger Stone, Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman,

336
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 3: Mark Meadows, Donald Trump. Now both the Department of Justice

337
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 3: has charged and a jury has convicted somebody who was

338
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 3: responsible for those crimes but was nowhere near the capital.

339
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,199
Speaker 3: That kind of sets an atmospheric precedent. And if I

340
00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:00,080
Speaker 3: were involved on the prosecution team, I would say, Ken,

341
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 3: we finally go after the people at.

342
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 2: The Willard war Room now and indict them? Can we finally.

343
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 3: Go after Mark Meadows and Donald Trump and indict them? Look,

344
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 3: we're doing a bang up job prosecuting the boots of

345
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 3: the insurrection to foot soldiers. Time to get after the

346
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 3: suits of the insurrection, the people who organized, orchestrated, funded,

347
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 3: and incited, indeed gave the order to attack the capital.

348
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 3: Let's get after it because we're burning democracy daylight. It

349
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 3: blows my mind that we're treating Donald Trump like a

350
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 3: viable candidate for the presidency.

351
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 2: Let them hold town hall meetings, and CNN is gonna

352
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 2: comporate it. Are you insane? Are you insane?

353
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 3: This man he should be hounded every second of every

354
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:53,399
Speaker 3: day by every reporter on earth until he has nothing

355
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 3: he can do but like say, in his little third

356
00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 3: rate resort mar A Lago with his moles that is, bedbugs,

357
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 3: and not see the light of day until the marshals

358
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 3: come and arrest him.

359
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,120
Speaker 2: It's insane that.

360
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,639
Speaker 3: We treat this man like he's a viable candidate for

361
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 3: government office.

362
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 2: After he ordered, he organized, he launched an.

363
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 3: Attack on the US capital to try to unlawfully retain

364
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 3: the power of the presidency.

365
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 2: That is lunacy.

366
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 1: I mean everything that you said, I have been tweeting,

367
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: I said, you know, I don't understand how this. Having

368
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 1: Donald Trump do a town hall at CNN right now

369
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 1: as the man is literally as a jury is literally

370
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: deliberating a rape case that he is at the center of,

371
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: is like would have been giving Harvey Weinstein a town

372
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,400
Speaker 1: hall in the middle of all of the horrific allegations

373
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 1: that were coming down of sexual assault and violence. Like,

374
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,120
Speaker 1: how do I don't understand the difference there.

375
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 2: And this is a man Danielle, who we saw during

376
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 2: the Egen Carol trial. We saw his deposition. He said, Hey,

377
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 2: for millions of years, stars have been able to sexually.

378
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm a star.

379
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:15,919
Speaker 3: And you know what, unfortunately or fortunately, I get to

380
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 3: do it, he said, stars get to sexually assault women.

381
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:22,959
Speaker 2: I'm a star. I get to do it.

382
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 3: Fortunately, every single Republican politician who remains in Donald Trump's

383
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 3: corner co signs that statement, adopts that statement, and announces, Yes,

384
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 3: that's the kind of person we want in the Oval office.

385
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 3: Are you sing kidding me?

386
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 1: I mean, it is it? Honestly, Glenn, it is. We

387
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: are in such and I'm so tired of this word,

388
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 1: but such unprecedented, erratic, violent, criminal times. And honestly, you know,

389
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,239
Speaker 1: the last question that I have for you today is,

390
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: even if, Glenn, even if all were to go our way,

391
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 1: even if Jack Smith comes down, even if you know,

392
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 1: the if Fannie Willis comes down, we go to court

393
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: in Manhattan, Egen wins her. You know it's decided in

394
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: her favor. Where do we go do you know, like

395
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,120
Speaker 1: you because you have you just named we have an

396
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: entire Republican Party that is behind a man that has

397
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: been incused at least twenty six times of sexual harassment

398
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: and assault. A man that has thirty four felony indictments

399
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: against him for falsifying records, has other indictments hanging over

400
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: his head for either stealing documents inciting an insurrection, Like

401
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 1: where do we go?

402
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 2: I don't know, you.

403
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 3: Know, I asked myself the question all the time. Can

404
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 3: we really really dig out and rebuild? I hope the

405
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 3: answer is yes. I have to believe the answer is yes,

406
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 3: because the alternative is just too dark to consider that.

407
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 2: No, we can't. We're done. We're just going to.

408
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 3: Spend the rest of our lives fighting aspiring autocrats and

409
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 3: dictators and avowed you know, sexual offenders who say they

410
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 3: have a right to do it.

411
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 2: But you think about it.

412
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 3: I mean, the Republican Party took away women's rights. The

413
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 3: Republican Party is comfortable with children being murdered because they're

414
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,239
Speaker 3: more interested in supporting the gun lobby and everybody's you know,

415
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 3: desire to have a weapon of mass destruction an assault rifle.

416
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 3: I mean, they're comfortable with compromise at the Supreme Court.

417
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 3: They embrace all of this. Yeah. So, hopefully if the

418
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 3: Republican Party is put out of business by this as

419
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 3: a result of their continued adherence to Donald Trump, some

420
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 3: responsible Republican Party rises up from the ashes.

421
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 2: I always point to people whose policies.

422
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 3: I disagree with, but Liz Cheney and Adam Kinsinger who said,

423
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 3: I don't care about my job. I care about protecting

424
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 3: and saving our republic from criminal politicians, and that is

425
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 3: how I will spend my days fighting and listen, great,

426
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 3: let's have them come into power and then argue about policy,

427
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 3: not about whether sexually assaulting women is fortunately something the

428
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:33,719
Speaker 3: stars get to do.

429
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 1: Glenn, we will leave it here today. Thank you as

430
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: always for your analysis, your insight, and your indignation at

431
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: where this country is and our legal system is right now.

432
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: We really appreciate you.

433
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 2: Thanks Danielle.

434
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: That is it for me today. Dear friends on woka

435
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,760
