Who doesn’t have compassion for Joe Biden – he loses one son to cancer, then almost loses another one to addiction and prison.  But a TEN-YEAR PARDON, the start of which was 90 days before Hunter joined the Burisma board?

And, does this guarantee Trump will pardon all 645 people sentenced for January 6 crimes?

 It’s the season for happy criminal defendants!  Jussie Smollett’s conviction was tossed because prosecutors failed to honor deal.  Jack Smith threw in the towel on TrumpLaw.  And the Menendez Brothers hope they’ll be walking free in January.

Hey they’ve got seven weeks before the GOP takes over the White House and the Senate. Dems are saying we can do this – Sotomayor quits, Biden nominates a replacement, and the Dem-controlled Senate installs her before January.

One possible catch:  SHE MAY NOT BE READY TO RETIRE.  Biden’s likely response:  Uh, you do remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg, right?  DO YOU WANT THE CONSERVATIVES TO HAVE A 7-2 MAJORITY??

On November 26 Donald Trump has a date with destiny – he’s due in the Stormy Daniels hush money courtroom to hear his sentence, following his conviction by a jury of 34 felony counts.  Does his election win protect him from incarceration?

And, why did Kamala lose?  I’ll tell you about the two big blunders that doomed her campaign.

People assume that a Trump win means dismissal of the federal criminal cases pending against him.

But, not so fast!  When prosecutors agreed to drop charges against General Michael Flynn, the judge said no!

Yes, judges may bring in new prosecutors to keep fighting, if the think “justice” or “public interest” requires it.

—- Is Elon Musk in legal trouble for giving away $1 million a day to boost voter registration?  If so, does Taylor Swift’s Kamala endorsement cross the line as well?

—-  Is Biden’s DOJ going after Musk proof the legal system is being weaponized for political reasons?

—-  Was SCOTUS’ ruling giving Trump immunity an overreaction to the concerns about weaponization?

Yes, the Menendez brothers were sentenced to life without parole for shot gunning their parents. But their new lawyer Mark Geragos wants them released, saying he hopse to host them at Thanksgiving dinner next month.

There’s yet another lawsuit against a baker who refuses to create a cake he disapproves of. The latest entry? The customer wants a birthday cake with an image of Satan, smoking a joint.

And, does America have an incarceration problem? Well yeah, we only solve 50% of violent crimes. So maybe instead of “abolishing” prison, we should be doubling our prison budget.

What would you pay to pick the brain of a presidential speechwriter who spent countless hours with two of the most consequential leaders of the 20th century, Reagan and Nixon. Well good news, it’s FREE. This week’s episode of Too Many Lawyers features my interview of Ken Khachigian, author of “Behind Closed Doors: In the Room with Reagan and Nixon.

It was a very bad week for rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs – indicted on sex trafficking charges, and denied bail -- he'll be locked up for a year or more awaiting trial. The judge may have worried Diddy would ride his Gulfstream to Switzerland, and become Roman Polanski's roommate. And, is TikTok about to lose a court battle, meaning it’ll be kicked out of America?

A high school class takes a field trip to court, and little Cindy winds up in cuffs and a jump suit – seems she talked back to the judge when he scolded her for dozing off. Will his honor be looking for a job as a bailiff?

Plus:

     --- Should cops be allowed to use AI to write their police reports – even though, sometimes, Chat GPT hallucinates?

     --- And, how cranky are the Dems, now that a judge has kicked Trump's Stormy sentencing date to Thanksgiving?. So much for Kamala's ads announcing, "My opponent's a convicted felon – AND HE'S BEEN SENTENCED TO TIME IN THE BIG HOUSE."
