It appears that Fani Willis has failed to block a hearing into her alleged conflict of interest. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee is quoted as saying “Because I think it's possible that the facts alleged by the defendant could result in disqualification, I think an evidentiary hearing must occur to establish the record on those core allegations."
...Willis and Wade have more to fear than disqualification if they knowingly filed false statements with the Court. Indeed, they can look to their own case on how such filings can result in bar or criminal charges. jonathanturley.org/2024/02/10/new…

The Judicial Conference has released a new policy that could materially alter the character of the federal courts, allowing judges to comment on what they deem “illegitimate forms of criticism and attacks.” It is not just injudicious, it is dangerous... jonathanturley.org/2026/02/18/rul…
...The added freedom afforded to judges to engage in commentary will do little to change the debate. It may, however, greatly erode the trust in what was once considered “our least dangerous branch.”
...Given increasingly injudicious comments, one would think that Chief Justice John Roberts and the Judicial Conference would seek to tighten, not loosen, the limits on judicial commentary. I am not suggesting that these past statements would be viewed as acceptable under the new rules. However, I fail to understand, in light of such controversial statements, the Conference elected to relax the rules at this time.

The Clintons are again suggesting that they might not agree to a deposition after previously yielding to the threat of a contempt vote. Today, Bill Clinton declared on X that "I will not sit idly as they use me as a prop in a closed-door kangaroo court"...jonathanturley.org/2026/01/14/now…
...Clinton is not being asked to "sit idly by" but to sit for a deposition like other citizens. His posting suggests that he is again opposed to compliance after a bipartisan vote was again delayed by the earlier concession...
...The reason for these depositions is that they can gain greater depth in questioning. This is vintage Clinton in delaying and evading accountability. For decades, they have gamed the system with such tactics...

The decision of the federal court to reject the effort to enjoin the immigration operations means that Attorney General Keith Ellison could not come up with a single cognizable claim of illegality to shoulder this burden...
...Now that a Biden appointee judge has rejected this meritless effort, will Gov. Walz, Attorney General Ellison, and Mayor Frey finally come clean and admit that these operations are lawful? One can disagree with them, but they are solidly within federal law...
...Instead, Ellison has been spreading clearly false information like claiming that the FACE Act only applies to abortion clinics and not places of worship. jonathanturley.org/2026/01/20/thi…

Gov. Walz is again inflaming the mob. He is effectively declaring this to be the murder of a citizen who had a permit to carry this weapon. He is saying that the state not the federal government will control the investigation. He does not have that authority...
...The state can clearly have a parallel investigation and the federal government can do a joint investigation. However, he cannot dictate how or who will conduct the investigation...
...With thousands in the streets, Walz just did all that he could to give them license for their rage. Most of us would never call this a lawful or unlawful shooting based on one videotape...

Frey is again denouncing the officers in the latest shooting before any investigation into the shooting. Gov. Walz preceded him. Frey just said "your children will ask you what side you are on" and "what did you do?" Those words will be taken as a license for escalating these confrontations...
...Many of us have watched this videotape. The view of the hands of the suspect are not clear. We hear the shoot followed by a series of shots. We need to know if the suspect had pulled the gun or the reason for the officers to use lethal force. That would not seem an unreasonable expectation before public condemnations from the governor and the mayor...
...Rachel Sayre, Minneapolis Emergency Management Director, just said that the federal government is terrorizing the city...

Now in control, Virginia Democrats have pursued a radical agenda from a host of new taxes to rent control measures. jonathanturley.org/2026/01/23/wit… Now they are threatening one of the oldest institutions, the Virginia Military Institute, over DEI policies... foxnews.com/us/virginia-de…
...After running as a moderate, Gov. Abigail Spanberger has moved to reverse efforts to moderate Virginia universities, including the appointment of former Gov. Ralph Northam to the VMI board...
...I have spoken at VMI, , which is a unique educational institution that has produced some of our greatest leaders, including Gen. George Marshall. It now appears in the crosshairs of a far-left agenda.jonathanturley.org/2025/10/02/the…
