18:31Now Playing101 former federal and state judges. A 73-page complaint. The New York State Bar. And the Acting Attorney General of the United States in the crosshairs. Todd Blanche, Trump's former defense attorney, now Acting AG, just had a formal ethics complaint filed against him by Lawyers Defending American Democracy, Democracy Defenders Fund, and over 100 bipartisan former judges. And legal experts are saying this one is different. Resident Legal Diva Melba Pearson talks with Lauren Rikleen of Lawyers Defending American Democracy to break down exactly what's alleged, why this complaint has teeth, and what it would actually mean if the New York Bar takes action against a sitting Attorney General. The nation's top law enforcement officer is supposed to serve the Constitution, not one man.
