Main Justice is the next era of legal analysis from Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord, the veteran lawyers behind the hit podcast Prosecuting Donald Trump. As the criminal cases against Trump wind down and his new administration comes to power, Andrew and Mary draw on their extensive experience working within the Department of Justice to break down what’s happening inside Trump’s DOJ. Each week, they use their platform on Main Justice to safeguard against assaults on our laws, our Constitution, and our democracy.

    Thank you for continuing!
    This is one of the podcasts I look forward to the most. Thank you so much for the succinct, factual, and evidence based law information. I love that you will still be hosting and look forward to more.
  • MamaHHI
    Still here
    I’ve looked forward to listening to these podcasts weekly for years ( seems like, anyway). Most of us just need a break from the terrible election results and are avoiding news until it’s back in our faces. Thank you guys for staying the course. We need your wisdom and appreciate your time and expertise. We still have questions and no reasonable answers. Going to be a long 4 years, hope y’all will be there to help.

    Delightful
    Mary McCord and Andrew Weismann teach me something new every episode. I love their interactions as one or the other will clarify a point. Love the snapadoodle discussion in this episode which provided nice levity during these difficult times.

    Wake up to the fact that Donald J Trump is NOT a criminal, wow shocker
    His prosecutions were faked and there is abundant proof for this, women are not going to lose their rights, they just can’t kill baby’s anymore. Kamala Harris was an absolutely TERRIBLE woman and candidate. Her “ideas” would do more damage than Biden ever did, she kept people in a cell longer then needed just for free labor, she slept with everyone to get to where she was, and trump does not hate immigrants, he hates illegal immigration. And the whole LGTBQ weird stuff, I am personally fine with a adult doing what they want but the fact that they are pushing this on children who’s brains are developing is sickening, and for the people who want to identify as animals? Ok then you just can’t drive a car or own a house or property, because it is illegal in the state of EVERY STATE for an animal to drive, own a house, or own property. Please realize that we are going to be ok and the country is going to be better then ever

    Mary Don't Do Duets
    Mary doesn't play well with others. I would love to hear Andrew with a cohost who doesn't have to clean every bone or require someone to genuflect the way Mary does.

    Elated at the news that the podcast, and its illustrious hosts, are not going to go away. 🫶☺️

    Thank goodness!
    Thank goodness you are staying with this podcast! You don’t know how important it is to me. You all are smart, caring, concerned about our democracy and the rule of law and are so generous in spirit. Thank you!
  • Les in NY
    Please continue
    We NEED you to stay with us, and help us navigate the frightening times ahead. We need you more than ever. The legal and political landscape is terrifying terrain. Don’t leave us!

    One of the best
    I’ll miss this podcast. But…. I hate that DonOld is getting away with everything. We were entitled to see him tried for his many crimes. America is a travesty. And I don’t think this election was flawless. Bomb threats only in Democratic precincts that are traced back to Russia? Elon’s total shadiness? Paying off voters and getting just a wimpy letter from Garland? We can’t cry any foul without sounding like MAGAts but maybe that’s the point. Our institutions and criminal justice system cannot ever be trusted now that we have this violent rapist and criminal facing no consequences for trying to overthrow the government and then being REELECTED to the highest office. If he really did get this many votes, then America is hopeless and deserves to fall. Because he should never have been allowed to run until his trials were resolved. Goodbye, America. I hope all felons realize if they can’t find a decent job they can just run for President.

    Great podcast. Thank you for the updates. I’ve been sad all week with the election results but one of the concerns has been the cases. A criminal ran for the presidency to run from the legal system and was successful. There’s something fundamentally wrong with our system. I hope that work will commence to fight back on presidential immunity.

    Gonna Miss You Guys
    I am assuming that now that Trump has been re-elected, that your podcast will soon be cancelled. I have to tell you how much I have enjoyed each episode and how it has fueled my exercise regimen. It has also make me regret my decision not to attend law school, but rather go out into the world to make money. But money is nice too! Anyway, Andrew and Mary you are both stellar and I will look forward to any new podcast or appearances on MSNBC. Also, I wish you the best given the ominous predictions for all our futures. Thank you for your dedication to the law.
  • @back_two_tenths_farm
    Please Continue
    I have counted on you to navigate murky terrain for me for the past year and a half. I hope that you will continue to provide your learned, experienced perspective throughout the uncertain future.
  • Rain Worshipper
    Great podcast, poor implementation of ad-free
    I have paid for MSNBC premium, and about half of the MSNBC podcast episodes that come in as premium still have all the ads. Please fix this. I appreciate the bonus content, but I was partly signing up for relief from ads. Thanks. (And these are not just the ads for MSNBC, it’s all kinds of ads)
  • MagnusPater
    What a sham
    Worst “podcast” I’ve ever cursed my poor ears with. Don’t even bother

    Ads in my “ad-free” subscription.

    Listen and repeat
    Your broadcasts are so loaded with information, and so well explained that I actually enjoy listening several times. You’ve increased my legal vocabulary and I have a far better understanding of what is happening in the array of Trump trials. My question is about Mary McCord’s testimony before Congress. With now all of her opinions and statements now presented to the Congress, what is the outcome? What effect can her testimony make on the members and to what avail? All this great information- just hanging out there as a big “so what”?
  • KarieKaye
    Great Podcast !!
    Since I have no legal background, I love listening to these great legal minds to find out the latest on Trump’s legal issues. I have questions to ask, but I cannot figure out how to send a question for the expert panel. I love the pod! Andrew, I absolutely love whenever you’re on any of the MSNBC shows!
  • loverforsure
    I can recognize Mary or Andrews voice anywhere
    Every Tuesday I am searching for the latest episode. I love Andres’s humor and Mary’s facts on the law.
  • Long time Booknotes Lover
    Still getting ads on MSNBC Premium?!
    Hello Andrew and Mary, I subscribed to the MSNBC Premium version for your podcasts to exclude ads, but I am still getting ads. Can you help explain why this is? Thank you.

    Ads
    I subscribed to msnbc premium and periodically still have ads...!
  • Brthegood12345
    You are the only two I trust
    You are the only two people I trust to share & explain truth & facts. Please do an episode on election preliminary polling & debate updates. 🩵
  • Betsy & Ari
    Informative and enjoyable
    I love this show. The hosts are personable and knowledgeable. I really like the way they explain stuff to the lay listener. I appreciate their candor.
  • Pablo Puppy
    August 27 Episode
    I wish I was more confident 11th circuit would reverse Cannon, because if it ends up in SCOTUS, they’ve made clear that the amount of chaos they inflict is no matter for them to be concerned with. The majority of the senior court is rewriting the Constitution and our laws in their entirety, legislation be damned.
  • shannoncMG
    My #1. Go To podcast for Trump accountability news
    This team strikes just the right balance between being informative and keeping it light enough that it’s never boring. The chemistry between them is perfect. Listening to them is like sitting down for coffee with a couple knowledgeable and trusted friends to catch up with developments.
  • G00bers Mom
    Too much mansplaining
    The information given is very good on this podcast. But I perfectly understand what Mary McCord is saying when she talks. Andrew does not need to mansplain her comments or input.

    Prosecuting Donald Trump
    Excellent! Would be better if Mary didn't dominate the commentary quite as much. A little restraint would allow more balance and be a little less grating.
  • whitmacally
    Most qualified podcast
    I look forward to all of Mary and Andrew’s episodes. To hear the actual legal terms and facts opposed to what media aka TRUMPLICANS want to believe. I just respect your opinions and willingness to dive deep into the actual law and help us interpret what it is. Thank you for your service, I recommend this show to all my friends and family.

    If the George Floyd Protests taught us anything…the 2Aers do not keep their guns for government tyranny. They keep them for their OWN tyranny.
  • CancerBoA
    Pay Wall??
    I love this podcast and I love the people on it but I’m not paying to listen because it’s not fair to your loyal followers to suddenly have to get a credit card just to hear what other intelligent people should tell all of us for free. This will be a bummer all around.
  • Hatsnap
    Thank you-respect our laws
    Thank you Mary and Andrew for explaining complicated issues down to there essences. With so much going on and one candidate not speaking with clarity, your podcast is a must to keep timeline linear. 🧡
  • user789!!
    Love
    Normally love the show but todays was a rambling episode, couldn’t even finish it.
  • Jumpy Johnny
    Not a hard decision
    Great show with two hosts who know what’s going on. However I am concerned about the shift to subscription. I am a senior citizen on a fixed income and subscribe to my local paper and three national papers. I’m tapped out. Now everybody wants more money from me. Good luck with that. I don’t want to wait a week on your views. I guess I have to go elsewhere.
  • Wood Rat
    Premium members only?
    I for one don’t appreciate having faithful followers suddenly barred with a pay wall. My usual reaction is to unfollow. I will be sad if forced to do that here.
  • sfncar
    Poor Steve
    Poor Steve, he doesn't seem to think anything will fix the problems. So sad. Now tell that to the many, many folks who so desperately need something to be done to address the arrogance and disrespect they feel coming from the Court. He sounds like more of the problem. At least the President and Congress are proposing good solutions.
  • Rbico
    You do a real public service.
    You make the rule of law understandable and show how it is the last line of defense against someone who seeks to tear that wall down.
  • JDavid1967
    Fantastic Podcast
    Congrats on your award! We deserved. 🥇What an INCREDIBLE podcast. Intelligent. Informed. Professional. Insightful. I have learned SO much. I cannot get enough. Thanks to you both. Keep up the great work. 🇺🇸
  • Hiwasko
    Love the pod
    You two are the nerdiest of legal nerds, and I love listening to you. Thanks for bringing your knowledge and expertise in these current legal matters.
  • SL-41
    Excellent explanations and analysis
    I have enjoyed this podcast ever since finding it a few months ago. The insight to the various cases has been invaluable to see how disingenuous various people in the process have been but also how the justice system is still holding strong and that there are a number of good people involved in the process who are fighting for democracy on a daily basis. Thank you Mary and Andrew!
  • Josiedoseedoo
    Just what we need in these times
    Andrew and Mary are so incredibly thoughtful, well versed and intelligent Their knowledge of law and the way that they break it down really helps me understand what is happening. I feel like it helps me explain to my friends the importance of making good decisions when you vote. Even the most insignificant wranglings can have such a grievous consequences. Plus they are great together!

    Triggered
    Just read that the classified documents case got dismissed. Andrew is going to be soooooo triggered!
  • Gsully7
    Great except the interruptions
    Love this podcast, appreciate the in depth explanations, but almost quit listening because Mary rarely gets to finish a sentence/thought without being interrupted. Let the woman speak for goodness sake.
