  • Presumption of Irregularity

    Presumption of Irregularity
    May 6 2025

    Long established legal norms continue to be challenged by Trump’s Justice Department, leading Andrew and Mary to emphasize how the courts have grown increasingly frustrated with the administration's tactics. They begin with last Thursday’s ruling from Judge Rodriguez in Texas, that Trump was unjustified in using the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan migrants. After a review of what that means for his ‘extraction’ efforts, Andrew and Mary go deep on an assessment made public from the National Intelligence Council, that indicates despite Trump’s presidential proclamation evoking the Alien Enemies Act, intelligence officials do not see a strong link between the Venezuelan government and Tren de Aragua. And lastly this week, they look at the latest judicial pushback on Trump’s attempts to threaten law firms, after Judge Beryl Howell ruled against his targeting of Perkins Coie by executive order.

    Further reading: Here is the assessment from the National Intelligence Council on the relationship between the Maduro government and Tren de Aragua, courtesy of the New York Times.

  • 100 Days of Hypocrisy

    100 Days of Hypocrisy
    Apr 29 2025

    Andrew and Mary begin this week by acknowledging that, as the Trump administration approaches its 100th day mark, some themes have materialized. One is intimidation, exemplified most recently with the arrest of Wisconsin state court judge Hannah Dugan last Friday, while Trump continues to clash with local authorities over his deportation efforts. Another theme is due process, or the lack of it. Our Main Justice hosts point to a litany of immigration issues front and center this week, including the wrongful deportation of US citizen children, Attorney General Pam Bondi’s March memo to law enforcement laying out how to implement the Alien Enemies Act, and what happened when the government was compelled to have a hearing in a Texas case: they fell flat on the merits. And before wrapping up, Andrew and Mary explain why Trump's media policy change, tossing out Biden era protections for journalists, is problematic for a free press.

    Further reading:

    • Mary’s recent Op-ed in the Washington Post: What Alito got right in his El Salvador case dissent.
    • Pam Bondi’s March 14th memo issuing guidance for implementing the Alien Enemies Act.
    • Pam Bondi’s April 25th memo updating the policy regarding obtaining information from, or records of, members of the news media.

    A note to listeners: In the Abrego Garcia case, despite the earlier admission in court that his removal was a mistake, the government’s current position is that he a member of MS 13, which his lawyers deny.

Essential

It's important to find trusted, experienced voices as we move through these important legal cases involving Donald Trump and his coconspirators. Andrew and Mary's years in government and law make them essential to my sources for correct information about the process. I'm grateful that I have the time to read court documents as a retired person and I look to them for explanations and implications of what's happening in these prosecutions. This is a good podcast to choose if you want this information but don't have time to listen to a bunch of them. They are good teachers and good citizens.
