Description

New York Attorney General Letitia James heads to federal court to ask a judge to quash a second grand jury investigation on the grounds that another Trump-installed prosecutor was unlawfully appointed. John Sarcone, a former Trump campaign lawyer, tried to subpoena James for bringing successful lawsuits against Trump and the NRA. He's also facing a bar complaint by the group Campaign for Accountability. The group's executive director Michelle Kuppersmith discusses the case with Adam Klasfeld on All Rise New. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/26041326-cfa-ny-bar-complaint-john-a-sarcone-iii/ All Rise News: https://www.allrisenews.com/ https://x.com/AllRiseNews https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:qreqgceochjnniqhr4osqye5 Adam's Socials: https://x.com/klasfeldreports?lang=en https://bsky.app/profile/klasfeldreports.com Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@LegalAFMTN?sub_confirmation=1 Legal AF Substack: https://substack.com/@legalaf Follow Legal AF on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/legalafmtn.bsky.social Follow Michael Popok on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/mspopok.bsky.social Subscribe to the Legal AF by MeidasTouch podcast here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/legal-af-by-meidastouch/id1580828595

He filed a FALSE TEPORT plain and simple. Non resident of the district. Trumped up charges. Corruption personified.

If Sarcone was appointed by Dump, of course he's illegally appointed!

I fear that those of us that took the oath to defend this nation may have to fulfill those oaths. We will defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic. This I do solemnly swear.

So I guess lying is a prerequisite for working in this administration. It’s just so depressingly disgusting.
