Former federal judge challenges Trump to protect "the integrity of the judicial system." - Velshi - MS NOW
Shira Scheindlin is one of a group of 35 former federal judges who filed to reopen Trump’s settlement with the IRS, accusing him of using the judicial system “for an improper purpose.”
Scheindlin questions why taxpayer money should go to Trump’s $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund to compensate convicted Jan. 6th insurrectionists. "The president was on both sides of the case. That's called collusion." - Aired on 05/30/2026.
