I'm Eliza Orlins—career public defender for 15 years in Manhattan. I represented thousands of New Yorkers who couldn't afford a lawyer, ran for Manhattan DA in 2021, and now I cover the legal system full time.
On this channel: breaking Supreme Court decisions, the Epstein files, immigration enforcement, your constitutional rights, and government accountability. I read the actual documents—court filings, transcripts, financial disclosures—and break down what they say in plain English.

WE'RE LIVE 🔗
EXCLUSIVE: I'm the only livestream of the Senate Democrats' shadow hearing on Todd Blanche. This won't be on C-SPAN. It won't be on cable. It's only here.
Senator Cory Booker and Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats are convening a spotlight forum on Todd Blanche's nomination—examining the Department of Justice's abandonment of the rule of law, its failure to deliver justice for Epstein survivors, and what happens when the nation's top law enforcement official answers to the President instead of the Constitution.
Blanche was Donald Trump's personal criminal defense attorney. Now he's up for Attorney General, and the committee vote is coming.

My TEDx talk is finally LIVE!
I’m really proud of this one—it’s about digital privacy, the erosion of the Fourth Amendment, and what I’ve learned after 15 years as a public defender. It feels especially timely right now.
Would love if you watched and shared—and let me know what you think!
