🚨 Trump Gets Tables Turned on Him as DOJ Headed to Trial

The midweek edition of LegalAF x MeidasTouch, the top-rated podcast covering law and politics, is anchored by national trial attorney and strategist, Michael Popok and former prosecutor and leading criminal defense attorney Karen Friedman Agnifilo. On this week’s episode, Popok and KFA discuss and analyze:   1. A NY State Court Judge finding Trump in Civil Contempt for failure to produce documents and records to the NY Attorney General.   2. The same judge ordering Trump’s long time appraisal firm to turn over all of their records without delay to the NY Attorney General to aid her investigation into whether Trump committed loan fraud.   3. 13 members of the Women’s Gymnastics Team putting the FBI on notice that intend to sue the FBI for bungling their investigation of former Dr. Larry Nasser who sexually assaulted and abused them while the FBI did nothing for years.   4. Whether a Jan6 Insurrectionist criminal defendant will be successful in defending herself by arguing that she is not a US or federal citizen, but a child of god.   Special Easter Egg: KFA plays “stump the Popok” as they discuss Elon Musk and his efforts to buy Twitter and what it all means.

Anchored by MT founder and civil rights lawyer, Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and strategist, Michael Popok, the top-rated news analysis podcast LegalAF x MeidasTouch is back for another hard-hitting look in “real time” at this week’s most consequential developments. This week Ben and Popok discuss and analyze: 1. The Jan6 Committee’s upcoming June hearings on the Insurrection that one senior member claims will “blow the roof” off of Congress as it describes an “inside coup” led by Trump. 2. The DOJ adding a new lead prosecutor to head the Jan6 prosecutions, including leading the prosecutors focusing on Trump and his inner circle. 3. Marjory Taylor Greene’s efforts to avoid being thrown off the upcoming ballot for reelection as an insurrectionist, and her providing the first sworn testimony of any member of Congress about their role on Jan6. 4. Newly-discovered audio recordings confirming that Kevin McCarthy sought to have Trump resign for his role in the insurrection, and that Trump had confessed about his role in the attack on the Capitol. 5. Alex Jones being hit with over $1mm in fines by a Texas judge presiding over his defamation trial related to his denying that the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre actually happened, his filing for bankruptcy to avoid liability, and his contacting the DOJ to cooperate concerning the Jan6 criminal investigation. 6. A new lawsuit filed against Florida Governor DeSantis’ racist redistricting maps, adding 4 new republican seats while cutting Black representation in half. 7. The DOJ filing a new appeal to reverse a Florida Federal judge’s decision last week finding the CDC’s Mask Mandate to be illegal.

Bannon’s last ditch efforts to have his criminal contempt of Congress case thrown out by a D.C. Circuit federal judge before his July trial. 3.

A Florida federal judge’s decision to prevent the Center for Disease Control from, well, controlling disease, by continuing to require masks on all public transportation.
