Michael Popok and Karen Friedman Agnifilo anchor the midweek edition of the top rated Legal AF podcast. What’s on tap tonight? 1) Trump is getting frustrated with losing, and just begged the Supreme Court to “do something” in a odd letter; 2) Trump is considering having Congress declare a phony war to allow him to put people in internment camps and deport them; 3) Trump has Musk run his cabinet, as his lawyers tell federal judges that Musk has no real power; 4) the Supreme Court hears oral argument on a white person’s reverse discrimination case, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

Trump is corruptly using his Federal Communications Commission not only to suppress Freedom of the Press and the First Amendment by opening dozens of investigations into corporate media like National Public Radio and PBS, but is using our taxpayer dollars and federal officers who swore an oath to the American People, to benefit Trump’s personal lawsuits against these same entities for billions of dollars. Michael Popok ties it all together as we have entered a Free Speech Emergency.

If you don’t like an America where Immigration forces chase undocumented other human beings through Churches and places of worship, then you will love the latest injunction against the Trump Administration to stop enforcement of the inhumane new policies to use these kinds of raids as part of immigration enforcement. Michael Popok does a deep dive into Federal Judge Chuang’s new order and explains what a “mandatory injunction” is and how it’s different from a prohibitive one.
