First, Donald Trump sent his flunky, Lindsey Halligan, into the grand jury to indict New York State Attorney General Leticia James. However, given that Halligan was unlawfully appointed as interim US attorney - meaning she had absolutely no lawful right to set foot in a grand jury - the indictment that Halligan obtained against James was dismissed by a federal court judge.
So Donald Trump found another flunky to go back into the grand jury and try to indict James again. The problem this time was that the grand jurors, sitting as the conscience of the community, refused to indict James, because the prosecutor did not have adequate evidence to support an indictment.
In the event Donald Trump has his dirty DOJ leadership send someone back into the grand jury to try again, the third time will not be a charm.
Glenn reviews the sad state of affairs involving Department of Justice leadership that is acting lawlessly, vindictively, and on the whims of a corrupt president of the United States.
Glenn also reviews grand jury procedures in depth, and highlights why any indictment that is obtained in the future will almost certainly be dismissed as the product of a vindictive prosecution.
