Station Selected:
For the second week in a row, a survey and analysis of some of the breathtaking goings-on in our nation’s tribunals—including the freezing of Alex Jones’ financial assets to prevent their looting, the stunning testimony of Stewart Rhodes in his continuing trial for seditious conspiracy, and the appointment of an impartial monitor to ensure that the assets of the Trump companies are not dissipated while financial fraud litigation against it continues. In other judicial arenas, a new federal lawsuit by the former President in an attempt to stop his subpoenaed testimonial appearance before the January 6 House Committee; the imposition of sanctions against the attorneys who initiated another of his federal actions frivolously seeking damages against people who allegedly compromised his reputation; a supplemental New York lawsuit anticipated from E. Jean Carroll against Donald Trump under the New York Adult Survivors Act; and decisions by federal district judges in Texas finding unconstitutional President Biden’s student loan forgiveness program and invalidating the prohibition on anti-LGBTQ discrimination (based on sexual orientation and gender identify) as established by the Affordable Care Act. And in the highest court of the land, three oral arguments this past week on Supreme Court cases that may reshape the agency operations of the Federal Trade Commission and the Securities & Exchange Commission, rescind decades of Medicaid/Medicare policy permitting lawsuits for abusive health care practices, and eliminate the key provisions of the Indian Child Welfare Act, directing the foster care and adoption placements of Native American youth in homes that promote the preservation of their cultural heritage and ethnic legacies.
