Golden Toilets, Tawdry Maps, & the Civil War Rides again

Golden Toilets, Tawdry Maps, & the Civil War Rides again

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, thought-provoking look in “real time” at this week’s developments. On this episode, Ben and Popok discuss: 1. SCOTUS’ continued assault on the Voting Rights Act through the shadow docket by allowing an Alabama anti-Black voter redistricting map to stand for the midterm elections. 2. Trump’s destruction of Presidential Records and his taking 15 boxes of top secret materials to Mar-a-Lago and the criminal statutes implicated. 3. New possible obstruction charges against Trump, and a review of the 16 (!) cases and prosecutions currently pending against him. 4. The Equal Rights Amendment has been ratified by 38 states, so why are the Republicans hell-bent on denying women equal rights by preventing it from being declared the 28th Amendment to the Constitution? 5. Representative Madison Cawthorn’s attempt to use a Civil War-era law to undermine the Constitution and the 14th Amendment, to allow him to run for reelection. 6. Congress’ bipartisan passing of a law to prevent “forced arbitration “for sexual harassment and discrimination claims. 7. The Sarah Palin defamation trial against the NY Times goes to closing argument and jury deliberation with the First Amendment on the line. And much more! Support the Show!

Trump Prosecutor Utterly Stunned as Cases Collapse

Trump Prosecutor Utterly Stunned as Cases Collapse

As Trump continues to indict his political critics, his DOJ is failing before Grand Juries and Juries on their overcharged cases against First Amendment protestors. Michael Popok uses Trump’s DC US Attorney Jeannine Pirro and her repeated losses before grand juries and juries, including the case of Sidney Lori Reid who beat the government FOUR TIMES before being acquitted on charges of assaulting law enforcement as a prime example.

Jack Smith POUNCES on CORRUPT Trump DOJ

Jack Smith POUNCES on CORRUPT Trump DOJ

What was supposed to be a sign of unity by a fractious DOJ and FBI leadership called together by Trump in the Oval Office turned into a dressing down of Bondi, Blanche, and Patel by Trump, who demanded that his former Special Counsel, Jack Smith, be indicted along with others in the former DOJ leadership. Michael Popok explains how Jack Smith’s first interview since being fired was well timed to coincide with Trump’s renewed campaign to have him indicted. In other words, “see you in Court.” Check out the Popok Firm: https://thepopokfirm.com Remember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts: MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcast Legal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-af MissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trial The PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcast The Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassan Mea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohen The Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-show Burn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boats Majority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54 Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdown On Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellman Uncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncovered Coalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane Learn more about your ad choices.

Vance Screws Trump White House as He Backs Them into Corner

With photos leaking out of Trump endorsing adult male and female Young Republicans who on newly leaked text message chains celebrated Hitler, Gas Chambers, killing jews, using the N word, using homophobic and sexist slurs, VP JD Vance came to the rescue, declaring that the 2900 pages of text messages and 251 slurs, were just “one off” “edgy comments” made by “young boys”, including the racist messaging of the mid 30’s “general course’ of the NY Young Republicans Club.  Michael Popok brings the receipts in the wake of Politico’s exposé.   Check out the Popok firm: https://thepopokfirm.com Subscribe:  @LegalAFMTN  Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Trump Stunned by Appeals Court Ruling on His Chicago Troop Plan

Trump Stunned by Appeals Court Ruling on His Chicago Troop Plan

In a 3-0 decision led by 2 Republican Judges, the Trump Administration and its DOJ have been defeated again in a victory for States' Rights, with the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals over Chicago, ruling that during the pendency of the appeal, Trump will not be able to deploy any National Guard troops on the streets of Chicago/Illinois. Michael Popok explains how the Court used the Trump Administration’s own bragging about the success of its immigration detention operation, WITHOUT the national guard’s help, against them.

JD Vance makes Stunning Confession on Live TV

JD Vance makes Stunning Confession on Live TV

Leave it to VP JD Vance to CONFESS on live television that a Tom Homan Bribery VIDEO exists, during his testy interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos. Michael Popok caught what others missed, in JD exchange with George, as JD tries to characterize $50,000 in bribe money in a paper bag handed to Homan the Border Czar, as just a run of the mill, garden variety $50,000 bag of cash like others Homan has accepted in the past?!?
