[00:02:07]>> [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] >> Heat. Heat. N. [music] >> [music] [music] [music] [music] >> Welcome, ladies and gentlemen. We need to talk about this. This almost got past me. It almost it almost got past me.

[00:03:30]Maybe it got past you, but a judge recently stopped Trump's DOJ's attempt to weaponize the grand jury process. And you know, this is um oh gosh, this is in truth a month old. All right, it's a it's a month old, but it's worth looking at. And I I almost didn't because there's so many other things to look at. You know, I'm going to look at tomorrow. Tune in tomorrow. I'm going to look at uh Trump's Truth Social and their efforts to monetize giving early access of [laughter] the of Donald Trump's tweets to whoever is willing to pay pay for that privilege. Um, but I didn't want to let this go one because it's a great opportunity to to just highlight how quickly and frantically things are happening uh in the United States, but also how the courts are pushing back. The the courts are for the most part the lower courts are holding their ground. Um, can't really say that so much about the Supreme Court, but yeah, this happened.

[00:04:52]this happened. Um, a federal judge quashed subpoenas that the DOJ had issued uh to uh to Tim Waltz to uh to Mayor Frey. Is it Mayor Frey or is he the governor? I'll go over that in a second. This is in uh Minnesota. Um, so this is actually a great opportunity to not only explore this issue very quickly. I'm going to try to keep this one short today. Um, but to also come to understand the grand jury process a little better. And it and the grand jury process is is something that is not only really important to the rule of law and to the system of law in the United States of America, but it's also a part that's highly misunderstood, greatly misunderstood. So, we're going to look at that uh today as we get through this. So, let's look at Judge Schultz, how how Judge Schultz halted the DOJ's attempt to weaponize the grand jury process. So, [clears throat] we're going to look at this along a timeline. All right? And so, it started, believe it or not, back in December of 2025.

[00:06:18]Um, [clears throat] and by the way, write your feel free to write your comments. I I can I I can see your comments. I'll put this one up just as an example. I I can see your comments and and if I [clears throat] if I have the opportunity I'll I'll respond to them. Um it's one of the reasons why I do these kind of these slideshows now because I found myself you know I had this plan that I want to present but then I also I see these comments and I go to respond to them and then I forget to cover what I meant to cover. So we're going to go through this this slideshow here and we're going to talk about this issue along a a timeline. So some of that timeline is well behind us. So that's why I say background and timeline. All right. So starting in December of 2025, right, the very, you know, the the beginning uh uh you know uh well the yeah the beginning of Trump's second term essentially. Um the Trump administration launched this operation metro surge. I shouldn't forgive me. I misspoke there. wasn't the the beginning. It was near the end of his first year. But anyways, I digress as I often do. uh December of 2025, the Trump administration, if you recall, they they they launched this operation metro surge. Um major, you know, what those major kind of federal immigration enforcement initiatives like, uh we've seen in Chicago and uh um we've seen in Portland and uh yeah, we're seeing, you know, things going on in Maine now. Uh we saw it in California.

[00:08:04]>> [clears throat] >> So that involved thousands of federal agents. You can imagine what this is like. Maybe you've seen it. You know, they they're they're operating in in major, you know, majorly populated areas. So you might live in one of those areas. Maybe you've seen it. Maybe you've experienced it. So they deployed thousands of federal agents. There's heightened tensions between the federal authorities and the Minnesota officials.

[00:08:31]And the officials involved in this sorted story, if you will, are uh not not that these guys there's nothing they they did wrong. Not in my opinion. Um the Minnesota the Minnesota officials involved. We've got Governor Tim Waltz who should be the vice [laughter] I mean in my opinion should currently be the vice president of the United States of America. Uh but I digress again that you know you probably have an opinion on that and and you're you're absolutely entitled to that opinion. Um you've got Attorney General Keith Ellison and you've got Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Freight and they maintained policies that limited state and local participation in federal civil civil immigration enforcement. So they said, "No, no, we're not going to get involved in this.

[00:09:26]This is on you if I is going to come in here um to to deal with immigration issues." And they have that authority.

[00:09:36]They have that right.

[00:09:38]But if they're going to do that, we're not going to help them. All right? We're not going to help. So don't come to us for help is what they were saying.

[00:09:49]Um, [clears throat] all right, moving on with the timeline.

[00:09:54]So, in January 12th of 2026, Minnesota filed suit challenging Operation Metro Surge. And then the very next day, Trump posts, "Fear not, great people of Minnesota. The day of reckoning and retribution is coming.

[00:10:18]Now, if there was a rule of law in the United States of America, that would that would be a career killer right there for a a president. You you you cannot you can't like literally announce, "Yeah, I'm doing this for retribution against my political enemies, against anyone who opposes me. I'm doing this for reckoning and retribution."

[00:10:40]But in this crazy, you know, timeline that we're living in, that's just another whatever it was, Tuesday, whatever it was. Nobody bats an eye at that. But let me show you the actual, you know, I like to I don't know what to call them. Post, you know, I want to call it a tweet. It's a post. I'm gonna read this because this is this this lays really important context this to this whole issue.

[00:11:15]Um uh and and it speaks to what our friend here is saying. Do thank you DoD for your comment. Uh, Trump is a 34time convicted felon and sexual assault abuser and bold-faced liar and possibly a pedo and war crim and a war criminal.

[00:11:35]I would agree with um everything in that statement on all accounts. Um uh and then we've got Jeffrey here saying and I you know possibly he's directing this towards me. Uh my opinion is your opinion doesn't matter. All influences influencers are garbage. I uh I aspire to be an influencer. So uh I don't know does that mean I aspire to be garbage in in in Jeffrey's view? But I will say this thank you for your comment, Jeffrey. And uh I'd uh fight to the death to defend your ability to share your opinion. So uh thank you for that. And uh we've got a comment here. ISIS fixing the country. And and I will I will speak to that because I really think this this really speaks to the heart of the the the polarization in the United States of America right now.

[00:12:34]Uh because I can I can absolutely sympathize with the issues that Raptor Raptor 82872 is is conveying here. Um I I can I can sympathize with that this this notion that you know there's a silent invasion. Um you know if this were an act of you know if this was being conducted by a this operation was was being conducted by a hostile enemy it would be considered an act of war.

[00:13:07]But instead it's just considered immigration.

[00:13:11]Um I can I can relate. I get that. Um [clears throat] and and Raptorate further says please stop impeding them.

[00:13:20]Um but let me tell you a little bit let let's like put this into context and and you know I try to present very factbased databased um you know presentations uh when I when I do these live streams and you know some of the data supports what our friend Raptor 8 here is saying.

[00:13:42]Um, a and some of it supports Governor Waltz and and and Mayor Frey.

[00:13:51]So, let let's read this this entire uh post here. And this is what Trump is saying to his base to stir up support for the actions of ICE in Minnesota. So, do the people of Minnesota really want to live in a community in which there are thousands of already convicted murderers? Now, think very clearly about what he's saying here.

[00:14:20]You know, think very, very clearly about what he's saying. He's literally saying that in Minnesota there are thousands of already convicted murderers and yet somehow these already convicted murderers are out walking free. They're just walking free. They're they're working in the kitchens. They're they're working and you know drywalling and they're fixing roofs and you know doing all kinds of but they're already convicted murderers but they're walking around free.

[00:14:57]Ah, there's drug dealers and addicts, rapists, violent released and escaped prisoners, dangerous people from foreign mental institutions, and insane asylums, and other deadly criminals too dangerous to even mention.

[00:15:20]I don't even know what that would mean.

[00:15:22]They're they're so dangerous, I can't even mention it. I, you know, it could be defensible. Maybe they've done things that are so horrible you don't even want to say it. So, fair enough.

[00:15:33]Um, all the patriots of ICE want to do is remove them from your neighborhood and send them back to the prisons and mental institutions from where they came.

[00:15:48]most in foreign countries who illegally entered the USA through sleepy Joe Biden's horrible open borders policy.

[00:15:59]Every place we go, crime comes down. In Chicago, despite a weak and incompetent governor and mayor fighting us all the way, a big improvement was made. Thousands of criminals were removed.

[00:16:16]Minnesota Democrats love.

[00:16:21]Again, think very carefully about about what he's saying. He's literally saying that Minnesota Democrats love the unrest that anarchists and professional agitators are causing because it gets the spotlight off of the 19 billion dollar that was stolen by really bad and deranged people.

[00:16:51]Hm.

[00:16:53]Fear not. Now, here's the epic line, right? Fear not.

[00:16:59]We got a lot of comments coming in right now. Fear not, great people of Minnesota. The day of reckoning and retribution is coming.

[00:17:10]And thank you, uh, Bruce, for your your multiple comments. Uh, he's hitting Trump hard here. Trump is a thief. Trump is a rapist. Um [clears throat] and uh and we've got you're lying. They didn't come from mental institutions.

[00:17:25]Trump is so stupid. He thinks a silent That's right. [laughter] That's right.

[00:17:29]That is the that is the um well said uh and that is uh from 2026 H1X. Um he the theory is that he has mixed up asylum seekers. they're seeking asylum, meaning they came from an asylum. [laughter] So, that's the theory. He's never been able to, of course, uh, substantiate these claims that these people are released. It's funny, like, it's an absurd notion, right? Somebody in another country, they cracked open they cracked open the doors of their mental asylums and said, "Go run for the border of the United States of America. They'll let you in."

[00:18:16]Um, so it is pretty funny, you know. So to to just put a little context on that, uh, thank you uh, thank you for your comments. I can tell I'm going to have a a hard time keeping uh, keeping up with the comments today. I'll show this one just to uh, one of the Minnesota frauds was prosecuted in 2022. Now there's no crime. There will be never again. I think you meant maybe you maybe your voice dictating this and you and you um maybe you meant to say once the Minnesota frauds now I don't know I'm not sure what you're saying there but help uh please do clarify and that is raptor rate 2872 um go ahead and clarify that let me put some uh some hard and fast numbers on this so during the operation midway blitz um I just I I just The context I'm I'm getting at here is he said he said uh thousands were removed. Uh thousands of criminals were removed. Um, so to put this into context with Operation Midway Blitz, uh, federal agents detained about 3,800, um, immigrants in the Chicago area, leading to nearly 2500 deportations.

[00:19:42]But here's the thing, here's the rub of it. Here's where people are choosing to disagree. [laughter] um agreeing to disagree m perhaps I don't know maybe there's no agreement so of these detained people roughly 15% of them had prior criminal convictions which is pretty high I'll give you that I don't think 15% of the general population has criminal convictions and this is where I think you know some folks who would consider themselves to be my ideological opponents like MAGA Trump supporters. This is where I can have sympathy with them. You know, I can have some sympathy with them because um you know, we've got a population here 15% of them had prior criminal convictions.

[00:20:36]Now, that's not all of them because Trump is presenting them that basically if you're an immigrant, you're a criminal. You're you're all those horrible things he was saying. You're a rapist. you're, you know, you're a convicted criminal who's for some reason out walking around. Um, but I will say of that 15%.

[00:21:02]Only 3%.

[00:21:04]So that's three of it's not 3% of 15%.

[00:21:07]I'm just saying three if you know what I mean. It's a still a pretty high, you know, 3%. 3% of these, you know, 3,800 because it's it's speaking about the the detained people here, uh, 3% had criminal convictions um that that were for violent crimes and 18% had pending charges. So, you put that together, you've got 33%.

[00:21:36]One in three. Hey, I'll give it to you, man. I'll give it to you. you're MAGA, you're pro- ICE, you're pro Trump. Even these numbers, um, they present a pretty damning picture of these these, you know, immigrants who were in the Chicago area.

[00:21:58]So, we can say the vast majority, 67% had no criminal history. And so, yeah, you know, hey, you can sympathize with those people. They're being treated like criminals, but they have no criminal history. But nonetheless, hey, one in three who have a criminal history.

[00:22:15]It's pretty high. Much higher than the general population.

[00:22:20]So, you know, there's there's good and bad there. Uh but nonetheless, you know, when you read that that post of Donald Trump, it it's pretty it's pretty outrageous like the idea that they're they're all from insane asylums and they're from they're from, you know, prisons and they were released so they could run for the United States. Um it's pretty it's pretty outrageous stuff. Um all right, now continuing with the timeline. All right. So, now we get to January 20th, and this is 2026.

[00:22:54]Uh, the DOJ serves grand jury subpoenas on six people. Governor Tim Waltz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, Mayor Jacob Frey, St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter, Henipin County officials, and Ramsay County officials. Um, and these subpoenas sought communications and records related to immigration enforcement.

[00:23:21]All right, so fair enough. That's January 20th. Moving along. Okay, so now we've got a bit of a uh sidebar. That's my little symbol up there, little upper left corner for sidebar. So, what is a grand jury subpoena? as you know what you probably focus on um in in the media and your day-to-day life is a is a grand jury indictment.

[00:23:45]You know, a grand jury is eventually the the job is to either deliver an indictment or or not. Um an indictment again is not any kind of finding of guilt. It just means you're you're you may have a trial. You you may face prosecution on these charges. Um so it it's quite it's quite a serious check and balance against um tyranny if you will against the whole Magna Carta thing 1215 making sure that the government doesn't abuse their power. So, uh, you know, I'm going to get in the next the next slide about what a grand jury is just very quickly because this case really provides a nice context for this. And a lot of people aren't really that familiar with this, but a grand jury subpoena is uh just like you you've seen in law shows, suits, or maybe you I I've been watching um Goliath with uh Billy Bob Thornton and really enjoying it. Really enjoying it. I do I do I don't like Billy Bob Thornton as a person, but I enjoy his his acting, you know. Um, and I enjoy the kind of work he does, the you know, I like his taste in in movies and shows and so on. Um, so maybe you've seen these subpoenas issued. If you if you're issued a subpoena, it means you must you must show up to testify before something. If you receive a subpoena from a grand jury, then what that's saying is you must, you are legally obliged, you are compelled by order of essentially the authority of a court. A grand jury isn't a court, but it it's issuing this from the authority of a court and you must go testify. So, it's a great way to get evidence. And and this is why in my next slide I'm going to get into what a grand jury actually is because it's not what most people think it is. Um so of course the the subpoena is not an accusation of guilt.

[00:25:54]It's not saying hey you I think you're guilty so here's a subpoena. really more likely than not, it's for a witness who can provide evidence that would support the guilt of somebody else. That's more likely what a grand jury subpoena would be. If you ever got a subpoena from a grand jury, let me know in the comments if you've uh ever gotten a, you know, testified at a grand jury or served on a grand jury. Um, so yeah, it compels the production of documents or testimony. You can subpoena both. You can subpoena a person to come tell what they know about a certain situation or come provide these documents, these records. Um, and by the way, federal judges almost never interfere with grand jury investigations. It's that's what makes this case so rare and so noteworthy. So now very quickly, what is a grand jury?

[00:26:56]All right, so it is not likely what you think it is. Most people think of a grand jury as something kind of like a trial, something like, you know, it would take place in some sort of courtroom or something. And probably most people assume that prosecutors um district attorneys have done the all the investigation, gathered up all the evidence and then they invite these they randomly select um what's the minimum number you have to have 16 to 23 I believe a grand jury can consist of 16 to 23 random people.

[00:27:48]I'll get into why that is in a in a moment. Um oh yeah, it's right up there.

[00:27:53]I should look at check my notes. Yeah, 16 to 23 random citizens and and so people assume that they then you know all the investigation is has already happened and then they just they explain the charge.

[00:28:09]This is the assumption. And this is not true. This is what most people assume, just to be clear. So they they picture something where the prosecutors just kind of gather these people together, explain the charges that they want to lay, present the evidence that they've gathered, and said, "So what do you think? What do you think? Do you think we have enough evidence? Should we should we go ahead and deliver this true bill and bring an indictment against this person? What do you think? What do you say?" That is not how it works at all. That's not how it works. The grand jury actually is part of the investigation. So, if you're on a grand jury, it's not like some focus group that you know, you're gathered into a room for an afternoon and they show you the evidence and you talk about it and you go, "Okay, yeah, I'd say you've got enough evidence here to support a charge, so go ahead." You know, I vote yes. Go ahead.

[00:29:08]um and and you know bring this indictment. Um that's not how it works at all. If you're in a grand jury, you're looking at minimum of weeks, more likely months of work, possibly years.

[00:29:24]And as a juror on a grand jury, you are effectively one of the investigators.

[00:29:35]So members of the grand jury can, you know, they can look at this, you know, they they're looking at these the charges against someone, the potential charges, and they're looking at maybe some evidence, and they're going, "Yeah, you know what?

[00:29:50]I'll tell you what. You know what? I'd like to see this. How about could we get the phone records of this person or is there any video surveillance that we could get of the street that day? I'd like to see that." And then they issue subpoenas. If they want to see video, then they're going to issue a subpoena to, you know, the whoever owns and operates the mall where the or the bank or whatever where the video cameras are, you exist and and say, "Hey, you know, we're a grand jury and we're issuing you this subpoena under the authority of the court in under which we operate and you now you have to bring us that videotape."

[00:30:31]And if you were whatever, if you were in the bank that day when the bank was robbed, uh we want we're we want you to come in and talk to us. We're issuing you a subpoena. We want to ask you some questions. But I want you to picture jurors who are able to say, you know what, I'd like to see this. Could we make that happen? Can we arrange that?

[00:30:52]Can we see that? So that's what is happening when a grand jury is issuing a subpoena.

[00:31:01]The reason why I gave that background at the risk of losing viewers here, [laughter] the reason why I gave that background is so you could understand what does it mean when a grand jury issues a subpoena. It's because they want to see evidence. Now think that through for a moment. It's a grand jury subpoena. The grand jury already exists. The people, the 16 to 23 random citizens have already been gathered for a job. They're investigating the possibility of laying a charge and they want to see more. They want to see more evidence. So, they issue a subpoena.

[00:31:42]All right. So, that's how it works. At the end of a of that process, ladies and gentlemen, you need a minimum of 12 jurors. A lot of people question this.

[00:31:54]Um, but this is how it works. You've got 16 to 23 citizens assembled. You need a minimum of 12 uh to to vote in the affirmative to bring an indictment or what is known as a true bill. Uh, if you get just 11, that's a no bill. There's no no indictment will be brought. Not yet. It doesn't mean no indictment can be brought in the future. Uh the rule of double jeopardy does not apply to grand juries. By the way, they're called grand juries because of the 16 to 23 people.

[00:32:30]And what you think of as a jury, like a trial jury, is also uh known as a petite jury because it's small. 12 people, right? 12 people. and they have to deliver a unanimous a unanimous decision in a criminal in a in a criminal case.

[00:32:49]Uh yeah, so I digress. Um [clears throat] yeah, so some people question that whole idea of 12 because you can imagine 12 out of 16 that's a very strong majority, but 12 out of 23 like you barely got half. you just bar 52 and a half% or so of the jurors have voted in the affirmative. It seems kind of weak. The reason why that can be, you know, that's accepted is because you're you're not convicting somebody here.

[00:33:25]You're just saying, okay, 12 of these people believe there's enough evidence to substantiate a charge. I digress.

[00:33:34]Enough on that, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:33:37]Um, so let's continue this timeline.

[00:33:39]We're almost through it here. In late January, early February, the subpoena recipients who I was showing you earlier, Tim Waltz, Mayor Frey, um, they invoked that court's the court under whose supervisory power this grand jury is operating.

[00:34:01]They invoked that court's supervisory authority by filing motions to quash these subpoenas, not indictments, subpoenas.

[00:34:13]And you know this this is happening in in late January, early February. Only in June, June 17th did Judge Schultz exercise that supervisory authority by granting the motions granting the motions to quash. By the way, a motion is simply asking a judge to make a decision on something. Literally, you can make a motion in in the middle of uh a trial to go to the washroom or you can make a motion to have the accused join you at council table so you can more easily communicate rather than sitting in a prisoner's dock. A motion is just anything you ask of a judge. Um, so they asked the judge, "Hey, judge, will you quash these subpoenas? We think they've been brought for an improper purpose. Can you quash them?" And the judge granted that motion to quash on June 17th, and the order was unsealed a few days later on June 22nd. But let me read you some of this language here by Judge Schultz. Um, it's [clears throat and cough] quite strong, quite unusual to see this kind of strong language being used in a uh court order, a 29page court order, by the way, which is pretty long for an order on a motion like this.

[00:35:42]Generally pretty long. you they might rank they might more likely be 6 to 10 pages 6 to 12 pages regularly.

[00:35:52]Um so here's a few great like standout quotes and they were it was kind of like shotgun boom boom boom on mostly on page 15. Judge Schultz said the evidence that the challenged subpoenas were issued for unlawful reasons is overwhelming.

[00:36:11]that, like I say, that kind of language is pretty strong for a judge to write in a court order.

[00:36:20]Next one, also on page 15, further down, initiating a criminal investigation in order to harass political opponents or to coers them into taking official action is a blatantly unlawful and unethical use of the grand jury process. And that quote, I think more than any other, really speaks to the heart of this issue, the heart of this ruling right here. It's a blatantly unlawful and unethical use of the grand jury process.

[00:37:00]Next quote and this is very important to understand I think to appreciate this case. The department and he means the department of justice. The department has struggled without success to identify a single plausible investigatory justification for the subpoenas.

[00:37:23]He's asked them over and over again. And you can tell this has been dragged out because of of the number of months between the motion to quash these subpoenas and the final judgment. Um, in my opinion, Judge Schultz was really kind of slowwalking this to this order, giving the Department of Justice every opportunity to def to support their position on this.

[00:37:52]Um and he says they struggled without success to identify a single plausible investigatory justification for the for the subpoenas. It just seemed to be for the purpose of harassing these people.

[00:38:08]So finally we get to the holding.

[00:38:11]This is the big one, the big quote, the final the decision.

[00:38:16]Um because you'd be you'd be surprised when you read court orders and and often when the judge is reading court orders early on in the court order, it can seem like they're going this way, you know, like they're going to rule this way, but then right at the end they go whoom and they go but but and then they change their mind. But Judge Schultz did not change his mind. He said in some because the court finds that the dominant purpose of the challenged subpoenas is to coersse Minnesota officials into assisting the federal government with enforcing civil civil immigration law.

[00:38:58]And by the way, it is civil law. It's not criminal law. So if if a person has entered a country unlawfully, uh they're an undocumented immigrant.

[00:39:08]They are not a criminal. This is a civil matter.

[00:39:12]Anyways, that that wording there just reminded me to clarify that within so uh is to coers Minnesota officials into assisting the federal government with enforcing civil immigration law and to harass and retaliate against them for failing to do so. The court grants the motions to quash. That's page 25 of this 29 page uh order.

[00:39:45]So ladies and gentlemen, that's really that's an unusual and highly damning order.

[00:39:58]And you know, this happened about a month ago. And then about a week ago, we had Judge Kathleen Williams in Florida really taking um Todd Blanch, the acting attorney general, and Donald Trump to task, saying that, you know, that that whole thing with the the lawsuit against the IRS, you know, Donald Trump suing the the IRS for10 billion dollars because some worker by the name of Charles Little John who was working um not at the IRS but as a subcontractor released all kinds of different people's tax returns made them public.

[00:40:47]Thousands, by the way, thousands of people had their tax returns um released. Uh none of those people got a dime.

[00:40:56]But Donald Trump kind of thought, well, you know, he was really embarrassed by all this. you know, it showed that he was massively in debt, like to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. He'd hardly ever paid any income tax.

[00:41:09]Um, his businesses were generally, you know, especially the bigger ones that are generally failing businesses. This was very embarrassing to him. And so he was like, well, this is embarrassing.

[00:41:22]Um, I want to sue the IRS for $10 billion.

[00:41:28]So Kathleen Williams, Southern District of Florida court said, "No, no, no guys, you cannot conspire.

[00:41:37]You cannot conspire together to come up with this agreement where you more or less say, hey, let's let me pretend to sue myself and then I will give myself $10 billion because it's Trump's IRS.

[00:41:50]This occurred, you know, this leak occurred in Trump's first term and then he's conducting the lawsuit, he's filing the lawsuit in his second term against a government agency that he controls. So, Judge Kathleen Williams basically said, "I I found this uh to be a fraud on the court. you guys have entered into uh essentially a you know a form of a a a conspiracy. You've colluded to to commit a fraud on this court uh in an attempt to defraud the American people by $10 billion. So this kind of nonsense is going on all over the place um in courts and Donald Trump has just he's just been hard at it. hard at it, just trying to abuse the court systems. And fortunately, these these judges rather cleareyed um are pushing back and rightfully so in my opinion. So there you go, ladies and gentlemen. That's the story of Judge Schultz and the the order to quash the uh the six subpoenas against these Minnesota officials.
