A good week for Democracy: Trump losses at the hands of NYAG, Georgia DA, and SCOTUS

A good week for Democracy: Trump losses at the hands of NYAG, Georgia DA, and SCOTUS

You come for the law and stay for the truth. Anchored by MT founder and civil rights lawyer, Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and strategist, Michael Popok, the top-rated news analysis podcast is back for another hard-hitting, thought-provoking look in “real time” at this week’s developments. On this episode, Ben and Popok discuss a very bad week for Trump and his minions: 1. Fulton County (GA) District Attorney seeking a special grand jury concerning Trump’s attempt to commit election fraud. 2. The New York Attorney General filing a 160 page petition with a New York court outlining all of the evidence she has about Trump’s loan and tax fraud, including almost 1 MILLION pages of documents. 3. SCOTUS in an 8-1 decision permitting the National Archive to turn over 700 pages of documents Trump wanted blocked to the Jan6 Special Committee. 4. SCOTUS refusing to accelerate any further legal challenges to Texas’ 6 week ban on abortion before it rules on the constitutional right in the summer, and Sotomayor’s dissent. 5. Clarence Thomas’ wife, Ginny, and her support for right wing extremism including cases before the Supreme Court, and whether that requires his disqualification or recusal. 6. Possible prosecution of the people who participated in the “fake” and forged electoral certificates sent to Swing States and the National Archive, including Rudy Giuliani. 7. Speaking of Rudy, a federal special master has just released to the US Attorney’s Office, Southern District of NY, 7000+ pages of texts and communications from his 18 devices grabbed in a dawn raid in April 2021. 8. The first “OathKeeper” indicted for seditions conspiracy has his pretrial detention hearing before a federal magistrate in Arizona, and his tweets get him in to trouble. 9. Ghislaine Maxwell may have another day in Court: Defense team files its motion for new trial based on improper conduct of one of the jurors in deliberation. And much more. Support the Show!

Trump Advisor Sues Chief Justice As Everything Goes Wrong

Trump Advisor Sues Chief Justice As Everything Goes Wrong

Is Trump, using his proxy, Stephen Miller and his “AF Legal Foundation” to sue Chief Justice Roberts in a new federal suit to send a message back to the Supreme Court to get Roberts back in line and under his thumb, and will it be successful? Michael Popok looks at a little-covered new lawsuit and how Trump and Miller are using it to violate the separation of powers and get control over the Judicial Conference used to administer courts and judges by the Judicial Branch.

Trump’s Own Agency Tanks All His Cases

Trump’s Own Agency Tanks All His Cases

We have new scandal swirling around the Trump Administration, as a newly declassified intelligence community memo prepared at the request of Trump’s own Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, refutes the very basis of Trump’s position that the Maduro Regime in Venezuela controls or is controlled by the notorious Tren De Aragua gang the very rationale for his unconstitutional use of the Alien Enemies Act. Michael Popok reads from the bombshell, newly declassified memo and outlines all the problems Trump and his DOJ now have in the federal courts up to the Supreme Court.

Trump Guts Key Division as He Screws His Own Department

Trump Guts Key Division as He Screws His Own Department

Trump as payback for his father and him being investigated by the civil rights division of the DOJ has moved to shutter the once proud crown jewel division that was responsible for enforcing the Fair Housing Act, Voting Rights Act, anti-discrimination and harassment laws, investigate and sue over hate crimes, including church and synagogue attacks. Now, under Trump, the division lost 70 percent of its lawyers and has now been reduced to going after transgender people, searching for nonexistent voter fraud, and white people discrimination. On this Law Day, celebrating the rule of law, Michael Popok reports on what’s happened and who is responsible.

Trump’s Law Firm Deal Blows Up Instantly

Trump’s Law Firm Deal Blows Up Instantly

Trump’s new Executive Order to “unleash” cops on Americans, defend them with the free legal work he extorted from major law firms, and then use the military against the American People, is not only a violation of the Constitution and the Posse Comitatus Act, but is one step closer to Trump declaring Martial Law. Michael Popok explains how Big Law, which gave Trump a billion dollars worth of free legal service, is complicit in Trump’s lawlessness and will end up being on the wrong side of the next case to challenge this Executive Order.

Trump Walks Himself into Trap at SCOTUS?!?!

Trump Walks Himself into Trap at SCOTUS?!?!

Trump is continuing to press his losing hand with the United States Supreme Court, and has filed his 12th phony “emergency” application to convince the Supreme Court that it when it called all Venezuelans “scum” and “dirtbags” it was only kidding before deciding to end their protective status and deport them. Michael Popok explains why filing this particular emergency application that Justice Kagan considers first may backfire for the Trump Administration and its Homeland Secretary Kristi Noem.

Judges Make Unprecedented Move to Address DOJ Lies

Judges Make Unprecedented Move to Address DOJ Lies

Trump has so destroyed the DOJ’s reputation for candor and integrity that federal judges won’t handle their cases unless a court reporter takes down every word in a transcript to ensure that their words are not twisted out of all meaning. Michael Popok looks at new reporting that Trump’s former criminal lawyer Emil Bove is running amok at the DOJ, destroying its Public Integrity Unit and its Civil Rights Division to use the DOJ to intimidate students on college campuses and threaten them with deportation or worse to chill their First Amendment expression.
