About this video
A Washington DC jury refused to convict a former DOJ Paralegal who expressed his first amendment rights to oppose Trump's take over of DC the old fashioned way-- he tossed a wrapped Subway salami sandwich, mustard and onions and all, at a border patrol officer. All levity aside, Popok explains how a jury likely found that a federal officer lied about being struck, the second time today that a federal officer was found to have lied in court, and what that means for Trump's DOJ going forward in its court cases.
