In a disturbingly thin and obviously rushed federal indictment, Donald Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi had DOJ prosecutors seek a grand jury indictment of Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan for allegedly trying to assist an immigrant evade arrest by ICE agents.

Glenn reviews the evidence contained in the two-count indictment; discusses how grand jury indictments are only as good as the ethics of the prosecutor presenting the evidence to the grand jurors; discusses the defense team Judge Dugan has assembled; and takes on the question of whether this is a legitimate prosecution or yet another example of Trump's abuse of power.

In a meticulously and persuasively reasoned 112-page legal opinion, DC Federal Court Judge Beryl Howell ruled that Donald Trump's Executive Order punishing the law firm Perkins Coie is unconstitutional.

The case is over, as Judge Howell granted summary judgment in favor of plaintiffs - Perkins Coie (though the case likely will be appealed by Trump).

In a particularly powerful passage, Judge Howell notes that Trump has put a "cringe-worthy twist" on the Shakespeare line, "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers." The judge wrote that Trump's approach in his unconstitutional Executive Order is, "Let's kill the lawyers I don't like".

Donald Trump apparently thinks the Constitution is inconvenient, getting in the way of his fervent desire to deport anyone and everyone he wants out of the United States.

His latest unconstitutional scheme is to suspend the writ of Habeas Corpus, which enables people being confined by Trump's executive branch to challenge the legality of their detention.

Trump and his henchmen, guys like Stephen Miller, apparently think they can unilaterally suspend habeas corpus. The problem for them is the federal courts disagree, including Republican/conservative icon, the late Justice Antonin Scalia.

Federal judges one after another have been ruling against Trump's illegality, unconstitutionality, and abuse of power, including many Republican-appointed judges - some appointed by Trump himself.

Glenn reviews some of what went on during Trump's first 100 days (a losing streak that seems to be continuing), and discusses what likely will happen to the DOJ lawyers who are being called out by the judges for engaging in "falsehoods" and "willful, bad faith conduct".

It appears Donald Trump's grip on the Senate Republicans is loosening. Trump pushed hard for his nominee for DC US Attorney, Ed "Stop the Steal" Martin. Trump even posted that, "We are going to take our Country BACK and FAST. Ed Martin will be a big player in doing so and, I hope, that the Republican Senators will make a commitment to his approval." Trump's hopes have been dashed, as Sen. Thom Tillis has said he will NOT vote in favor of confirming Martin. Trump is now considering Fox's Jeanine Pirro for the position.

During a White House meeting with the nation's governors, Donald Trump let them know, in substance, that they better get in line with some of his policies and proposals or he would cut off certain funding to their states. Maine's Governor Janet Mills would have none of it, and told Trump, "I'll see you in court." Trump replied, Good, I'll see you in court. I'll look forward to that. That should be a real easy one." Regarding that dispute between Trump and Mills, as the Guardian reported, "Win for Maine as Trump officials agree to halt school funding freeze." And as Governor Mills stated, "I told him I'd see him in court. Well, we did see him in court, and we won."

As if Donald Trump didn't already wear his autocratic aspirations on his sleeve, during an interview on Meet the Press - Kristen Walker asked him, as president if he "needed to uphold the Constitution", of course his answer was a democracy-busting, "I don't know".

This is severe, reckless and stubborn disregard for the duties of an American president and luckily it could represent the impeachment icing atop the high-crimes-and-misdemeanor cake.

At what point will the Republicans in Congress care about our Constitution and the constituents they represent?

It's clear - the Republicans in congress need to cross the aisle to save democracy.
