This is what happens when an unhinged podcaster is put second in charge of the FBI.
What “righteous investigations” is he cryptically referencing? The DAG memo closing out the Epstein disclosures says flatly that based on the DOJ/FBI review there were no third parties meriting investigation.

As usual, few legal commentators seem to understand the legal framework Trump is abusing to deploy troops to LA. The Office of Legal Counsel has long concluded that the military can be used domestically to protect federal facilities and functions. That’s the problem…

Whatever one thinks of the Biden cognitive “cover up” and the release of the Hur tapes, none of it excuses the shoddy Hur report. These reporters like @jaketapper.bsky.social keep getting that wrong.

Such hacks. Violating fundamental DOJ prosecutorial policies and norms. Without concern about how it undermines DOJ. If DOJ is politicized, good luck winning convictions. And good luck with judges.

Deportation to a Salvadoran jail, for extra-legal detention, is illegal notwithstanding the Alien Enemies Act. Removal means removal, not indefinite detention. Indefinite non-criminal detention without periodic review is unconstitutional. It remains unconstitutional if another country is our jailer.

It’s true that jailing US citizens abroad would violate due process, cruel and unusual punishment, and US
statutes. But more fundamentally, NO US CITIZEN CAN BE DETAINED UNDER US LAW BY A FOREIGN GOVERNMENT. PERIOD. EXILE IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL. A US CITIZEN IS PART OF THE US, FOREVER, FOR GOOD OR ILL.

Judge Wilkinson’s opinion excoriating the Administration’s unlawful actions in the Garcia case should be widely read. It is so powerful, and he is so respected by the Supreme Court justices, that the Supreme Court will likely let it stand as the defining view of the Supreme Court’s earlier decision.
