Description

What criminal charges could come from the January 6th investigation? Could anyone other than Trump get charged? And what might that look like. Loyola Law School professor and constitutional law expert Jessica Levinson walks us through the possible charges, why Trump’s state of mind matters so much, the evidence to date, and the difficult questions involved in prosecuting a former President of the United States. We also discuss the legal issues related to actions by Rudy Giuliani, Justice Clarence Thomas’ wife Ginni Thomas and Trump attorney John Eastman. Plus, Mike Pence’s place in history. Levinson is a professor at Loyola Law School in Los Angeles, and she lectures in the areas of constitutional law and election law. She is the host of the Passing Judgment Podcast. Prior to her teaching post, Levinson was a law clerk to Honorable James V. Selna of the Central District of California, practiced with Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP and served as the Director of Political Reform at the Center for Governmental Studies.Jessica Levinson➤Twitter: twitter.com/LevinsonJessica➤Instagram: instagram.com/levinsonjessicaYou can follow Jessica Yellin here:➤Instagram: instagram.com/jessicayellin​➤Twitter: twitter.com/jessicayellin➤Facebook: facebook.com/newsnotnoise➤YouTube: youtube.com/newsnotnoise➤Website: NewsNotNoise.com➤Newsletter: newsnotnoise.bulletin.comSupport this work:➤patreon.com/NewsNotNoiseJessica Yellin is the founder of News Not Noise, a channel dedicated to giving you news with real experts and providing facts, not panic attacks.

I’m Jessica Yellin, the founder of News Not Noise. For years, I worked in network news at ABC, MSNBC, and CNN, where I was the Chief White House Correspondent. I’ve reported from around the world and won awards.The more years I got under my belt as a reporter, the more I became convinced that the news doesn't speak to a large part of the audience.In the summer of 2018, I did something different. The midterm elections were approaching and friends asked me to explain what the heck was happening in the political cycle.So, I picked up my phone and began posting short, daily explainer videos on Instagram. What started with me and a ring light is now a small team, dedicated to giving you news in a different voice. We aim to provide facts, not panic attacks. We interview real experts — not pundits. My goal is to provide the understanding you need to engage in the conversation and take action in the world.
