Panicking Trump Lashes Out in Court over Blocked Invasion

Michael Popok and Karen Friedman Agnifilo are back for the Midweek edition of the top-rated Legal AF podcast. On this episode, the anchors discuss and debate: (1) the jury instructions to be used at the Trump Trial and how they favor the prosecution as the jury gets the case in deliberation next week; (2) whether the assertion of executive privilege by President Joe Biden saves Attorney General Merrick Garland from a contempt charge by MAGA Congress; (3) whether Judge Cannon will dismiss the case against Trump’s co-conspirator Walt Nauta, and (4) and another jan6 and Christian flag being flown after Sam Alito’s summer house has been located, so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

Michael Popok closely examines MAGA Congress’ latest failed attempt to impeach President Biden, the White House’s reliance on the Office of Legal Counsel to properly assert presidential executive privilege to protect the Attorney General from being found in contempt for his proper refusal to turn over the audio recordings of Biden‘s interview with the Special Counsel about his handling of classified documents after he stopped being vice president. And of course, the MAGA food fight on the House floor led by Marjorie Taylor Greene personally attacking a democratic representative before the vote on contempt.

Michael Popok, a NY trial attorney, compares Michael’s grand performance in this criminal trial with his testimony in the NY Attorney General case and explains how the jury is receiving Michael and interpreting Blanche losing his cool in court.
