Former CIA Director Tries To STOP Trump's Abuse Of The Rule Of Law - Glenn Kirschner
In a truly twisted legal development, Trump's Department of Justice leadership is engaging in prohibited "forum shopping" - trying to steer a bogus investigation of former CIA Director John Brennan to Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon.
But Brennan is not taking this abuse of the rule of law lying down. Brennan's attorney just send a letter to the Chief Judge of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, Judge Cecilia Altonaga, urging the judge to exercise her supervisory authority to stop this obvious improper forum shopping and abuse of the rule of law.
I sat down with former Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg to discuss this latest legal development. - Glenn Kirschner - 12/30/2025.
