Matt Gaetz Pal Joel Greenberg INDICTED –– Is Gaetz Next?

Matt Gaetz Pal Joel Greenberg INDICTED –– Is Gaetz Next?

On Episode 9 of Legal AF (#LAF), MeidasTouch's end-of-the week law and politics podcast, hosts MT founder and civil rights lawyer, Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and strategist, Michael Popok, examine the looming indictment of the Trump Organization by the joint prosecutor task force led by the NY AG and the Manhattan DA. Ben and Michael then reopen #LAF University Law School, and teach a mini-course on criminal statutes of limitation and how that may speed up the Trump indictment, unless a tolling agreement is entered into. The "Legal Analysis Friends" next take on the possibility that Florida Governor DeSantis will attempt to prevent the extradition of Trump back to New York, should he be indicted and what a Federal judge would say about that. Speaking of Florida and bizarre events, Legal AF takes a deep dive into the federal conviction and plea deal and cooperation of former Seminole County (FL) tax assessor and Congressman Matt Gaetz's main "bro," Joel Greenberg, and what it means for the likely indictment of Gaetz. Easter Egg alert: Ben and Popok explain why Greenberg was a "queen for a day" and it's not what you may think. Next up, the co-hosts discuss Sidney Powell and her misuse of fundraising money to pay for her personal legal defense against the defamation suit brought by Dominion Voting Systems. A LegalAF episode would not be complete without Ben getting special delight out of "Cyber Ninjas" and their inept "fraud-it" in Arizona, that is now leading to the State considering, ironically, throwing the 400 voting machines they examined because of possible corruption of the equipment by Cyber Ninjas. Finally, and in somber tones, Ben and Michael examine SCOTUS’s decision to revisit Roe v. Wade and a woman's right to choose under the guise of examining a Mississippi federal judge's decision to stay an anti-pro-choice law banning all abortions after 15 weeks. It is an ominous sign that a Republican majority court (6-3) is now doing a full-frontal assault on what had been a constitutionally-protected right of privacy. Learn more about your ad choices.

Chief Justice Throws Entire SCOTUS Under Bus in Report

Chief Justice Throws Entire SCOTUS Under Bus in Report

A feckless Chief Justice who is obviously trying to avoid being attacked by his favorite president Trump, issued a worthless “Final Report” on this past year at the Judiciary, filled with misstatements, omissions and misleading “statistics”. Missing from the report? Any mention of Trump’s attacks on the Judiciary, Judges, Lawyers and Law Firms, the violence threatened against them, the use of rogue US Attorneys to go after Trump’s political enemies, the corruption of the DOJ, the lack of ethics at the Supreme Court, and the battle that has spilled into the open between the lower federal trial courts and the Supreme Court, or the Court being complicit with Trump through the use of the “shadow docket” to allow back door appeals to side with Trump 86% of the time. Michael Popok blows apart the Report and its attempt to wrap Roberts and judges in a flag to fool the American people into believing that the Third Branch hasn’t been captured by MAGA and Trump.

Melania Trump in World of Hell in Lawsuit Donald Feared Most

Melania Trump in World of Hell in Lawsuit Donald Feared Most

In a bonehead and thoughtless move, did Melania— our purported nationalized First Lady — just open herself up to proctologist style cross examination under oath about whether she lives with Trump at Mar a Lago or the White House, or really lives with her son Barron at Trump Tower in New York, and what documents she has to prove any of it? Michael Popok examines the procedure that Melania will be forced to use to prove she is a resident of “Florida” and not New York, as she attempt to get a Trump-appointed Federal Judge to save her from journalist Michael Wolff’s state court suit against her after she threatened him with a $1 Billion Dollar defamation case. Popok focuses on just how much this judge is going to allow Wolff’s lawyers to delve into Melania’s marriage, immigration status, lifestyle and residency.

Trump’s Oil Company Takeover in Venezuela Fully Exposed

Trump’s Oil Company Takeover in Venezuela Fully Exposed

Is “cocaine trafficking” and “machine gun trafficking” just a pretext to the recently “cognitively tested” Trump taking over Venezuela’s oil reserves and its formerly American oil company, Citgo? How do you square Trump pardoning Honduras’ president from a 45 year coke trafficking sentence for moving the most coke in the western hemisphere, with claiming regime change was necessary in Venezuela because of the cocaine trade? Popok looks closely at the Largest oil reserves in the world that are located in Venezuela, and the connections between Trump’s inner circle, Russia and Citgo. And who trusts the Trump Regime to have done the planning to lead to democracy being installed in Venezuela? Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Legal AF Full Episode - 1/3/2026

On tonight’s special “Big Oil Takeover of Venezuela” edition, Legal AF founders Ben Meiselas and Michael Popok examine the Trump administration’s move toward a takeover of Venezuelan oil assets and the serious constitutional and statutory implications for Congressional war powers, foreign policy authority, and oversight. The episode analyzes whether the escalation abroad is being used to divert attention from renewed scrutiny of the Epstein files and the continued obstruction surrounding their release. The hosts also break down Jack Smith’s testimony to Congress, where he laid out the beyond-a-reasonable-doubt evidentiary record establishing that Donald Trump conspired to defraud the United States and acted as the perpetrator of a crime against the American people.

Trump's DOJ Lawyers May Lose Law Licenses after Appeal

Trump's DOJ Lawyers May Lose Law Licenses after Appeal

In a new federal appellate court filing, the Trump Administration and DOJ is being accused of possibly committing crimes or fraud on the court to strip it of any attorney-client privilege and avoid judge sanctions up to criminal contempt from being imposed on them. Michael Popok reports on the ACLU’s new brief to the DC federal appellate court to support Chief Judge Boesberg and get him back on track on determining if Kristie Noem and or Emil Bove (now a federal judge) among others, committed criminal contempt, and if DOJ lawyers should be referred to to the Bar for sanctions against their law licenses.

Judge Excoriates Trump in Open Court for Fed Claim

Judge Excoriates Trump in Open Court for Fed Claim

Turns out misleading a federal judge by telling her that the FEDERAL RESERVE HAS NO MONEY to justify not complying with her injunction to not put a Congressional agency devoted to protecting the consumer, is a very BAD thing. Michael Popok reports on a new order from Judge Amy Berman Jackson in which she calls out Trump’s “Darth Vader” Russ Vought’s roll in “starving” by claiming the Fed is busted, to protect the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau from being put through the wood chipper.

Trump Judge's Role in Bribery Scandal Comes Back to Haunt Him

Trump Judge's Role in Bribery Scandal Comes Back to Haunt Him

Should a sitting federal judge affiliated with Trump be impeached and removed for his role in allowing a corrupt Trump official to join the Administration? Those are some of the questions being asked today based on new reporting from MS-NOW that then senior DOJ Official Emil Bove (now Judge Bove) was handed an internal FBI and DOJ memo that disclosed that Border Czar Tom Homan was caught in a $50,000 bribe undercover sting operation, and then did nothing about it, allowing Trump to grant Homan security clearance. Michael Popok takes a hard look at Bove’s actions and what should happen next, as the Trump Administration embarks on yet another scandal cover up.
