George Conway and JVL break down a stunning whistleblower complaint accusing former Acting Deputy AG Emil Bove of telling colleagues the DOJ should ignore court orders and deport migrants anyway. They explore the Supreme Courtâs unexplained decision enabling deportation to dangerous countries, the Kafkaesque Abrego Garcia case, and the GOPâs broader assault on Harvard. Itâs a legal and political breakdownâConway says bluntly: âThe criminals are in charge.â
(Correction: At about 35:00 and at about 44:00, George and JVL misstate Boveâs position at the Department of Justice. A previous version of this description contained the same error. He was acting deputy attorney general and is now the principal associate deputy attorney general, but was never nominated to be the deputy attorney general. He has also been nominated to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals.) -
