Misruling with an Iron Fist

This time, John does a deep dive into Trump's escalating defiance of court orders, attacks on judges, and controversial deportations, while also examining the role of key figures like Chuck Schumer in defending democratic institutions. He also discusses the injustice of the nearly 250 Venezuelans alleged by the White House to be gang members that have been deported to a supermax prison in El Salvador, even as a US judge blocked the removals. Then, he welcomes back Professor Corey Brettschneider for legal analysis on current news including Justice John Robert's rebuking Trump's call to impeach federal judges who rule against him and the illegal arrest and detention of activist Mahmoud Khalil as well as the continued assaults on universities for DEI practices. Next, he interviews Rob Sand who is Iowa's 33rd State Auditor about corruption in his state. He was elected in 2018 after serving seven years as Iowa's chief public corruption prosecutor in the Iowa Attorney General's Office. There, he led the discovery and prosecution of the largest lottery rigging scheme in American history. He also prosecuted the Iowa Film Office Tax Credit scandal, the only criminal prosecution related to a global Ponzi Scheme, as well as dozens of other financial crimes. Then lastly, John jokes with "Comedy Daddy" Keith Price and they chat with the Evil Army of the Night about pop culture and the latest fraudulent conduct by the GOP and their golden leader "Man Baby".
