Trump is in for RUDE AWAKENING as Cases HEAT UP

Trump is in for RUDE AWAKENING as Cases HEAT UP

Trial attorneys Ben Meiselas and Michael Popok are back with a new episode of the weekend edition of the LegalAF podcast. On this episode, they debate/discuss: whether the US Supreme Court’s refusal to decide whether Trump has presidential immunity from federal criminal prosecution on a fast track and deferring for now to the DC Court of Appeals and its ruling expected in early January, is a setback for the March criminal trial or not; the Colorado Supreme Court’s 4-3 decision to ban Trump from the ballot being blocked while the US Supreme Court decides the issue, as MAGA led by Trump violently attack the Colorado Supreme Court justices who ruled against him; the immediate impact on hundreds of cases of the Supreme Court’s decision to decide in late Spring whether Trump and other Jan6 defendants can be charged with “corrupt obstruction of an official proceeding” –one of the crimes with the highest sentences used by the DOJ; the surprising decision by federal judge Cannon to get her Mar a Lago criminal case back on track for a May trial date, at least on paper; why the 11th Circuit creating new law in denying Trump former chief of staff Mark Meadows’ attempts as a former federal officer to transfer his Georgia criminal case to federal court as a way to seek its dismissal, doomed Jeff Clarke’s appeal, and Trump’s efforts to get his own criminal case out of state court too; and so much more from the intersection of law, politics and justice.
