The judge who quit to save democracy and 'send a ripple of hope' - Velshi - MS NOW
Former federal judge Mark Wolf resigned his lifetime seat to warn that Donald Trump threatens American democracy. His departure is part of a wider pattern inside government, with DOJ attorneys leaving in record numbers and some National Guard soldiers refusing what they say are unlawful orders.
These acts point to a systemic crisis of faith and to a growing movement of judges, civil servants, and citizens determined to defend the American experiment as it nears its 250th year. “I hope I'm sending out a ripple of hope, and it will merge with these other ripples,” Wolf says. “And together create this tidal wave that will be sufficient to sustain our democracy.” - Aired on 11/15/2025.
