Description

Trump's AG nominee Todd Blanche lost Trump's own criminal trial, built an illegal slush fund, and lied on Fox News—and Republicans are confirming him anyway. Sarah Longwell and Andrew Weissmann discuss what Democrats can actually do at the hearing, why Trump is screaming election fraud while gutting the unit that investigates it, and why his DOJ now holding the only copy of the Fulton County ballots should concern you. Plus: A federal judge ruled Trump's Kennedy Center takeover illegal, his lawyers told a court they could bulldoze the Statue of Liberty, and there's now a grotesque 92-foot metal structure on the White House lawn Get 15% off OneSkin with the code ILLEGALNEWS at https://www.oneskin.co/ILLEGALNEWS #oneskinpod Ready to reach your weight loss goals?

It is time to change the rules. If congress/sensate vote or support criminals they should be held complicit and held accountable.

How can you give Mike Flynn 1.25 million dollars of taxpayers money AFTER he pleaded guilty? How is that even legal?

He's as scandalous as you can get, that's why he was chosen by Trump and the Senate. Birds of a feather 🪶

Todd Blanche needs to end up behind bars. He is a criminal.

Love the illegal news. Always my two favorite hosts. Thank you for your insights. Disbar Blanche. The fact that they may confirm him is disgusting.
