15:37Now PlayingAttorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian expose Trump's handpicked US Attorney for Virginia, Lindsey Halligan—a 36-year-old former third runner-up for Miss Colorado with zero criminal prosecution experience who personally indicted James Comey just four days into the job, despite career prosecutors concluding there was insufficient evidence. The hosts reveal how Halligan spent her career defending insurance companies that deny homeowners' claims, second-chaired only one two-day bench trial, and lost Trump's CNN defamation lawsuit before meeting him socially at a golf club. They trace her path from Trump's Mar-a-Lago classified documents lawyer to removing "improper ideology" from Smithsonian exhibits, culminating in her appointment to lead an office handling terrorism cases and 300 lawyers—where she alone presented the Comey indictment after her predecessor was fired for refusing to prosecute Trump's enemies, exposing the dangerous erosion of DOJ independence.
