Legal AF Full Episode - 5/3/2025

Ben Meiselas & Michael Popok head the top rated Legal AF podcast and tonight address many firsts from this week: the first federal judge to declare as unconstitutional Trump's relentless attack on an independent bar and lawyers in our free society; the first federal judge to declare Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act unconstitutional and an abuse of power; the first standing ovation in the Supreme Court led by its Justices to support the Rule of Law in the time of Trump; the first standing ovation given to a sitting Supreme Court justice for her withering rebuke of Trump for attacking judges; and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

Unleashing the Kraken and the Prosecution of Trump

Unleashing the Kraken and the Prosecution of Trump

On Episode 2 of our new weekly law and politics podcast, Legal AF, hosts MT founder and civil rights lawyer Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and commentator, Michael Popok, take a deep dive into Trump lawyer and “Big Lie” shill Sidney Powell’s efforts to dismiss Dominion Voting Systems' new federal defamation case against her, including her eye-popping “defense” that none of her statements of voter fraud against Dominion were true, and that no reasonable person could believe they were “facts”. Next up, a discussion of MyPillow’s Mike Lindell’s hiring of Alan Dershowitz (we guess Rudy was tied up) to bring a defamation countersuit against Dominion, which could lead Dominion to one day owning My Pillow. Later, Ben and Michael explore possible future prosecutions of Trump and his family for sedition for advocating the violent overthrow of the Government, and the “pay to play” scandal surrounding Trump’s pardon frenzy in his waning days, including a link between Florida’s Aleph Institute, the Kirshner family, and the pardons granted.

The Origins of Legal AF

The Origins of Legal AF

On the kick-off episode of Legal AF, hosts MT founder and civil rights lawyer Ben Meiselas and legal wiz Michael Popok, discuss the “origin story” of their legal and trial work together, including First Amendment and social media cases for MeidasTouch involving Fox News and Kelly Loeffler, Republicans (the GQP) using “cancel culture” to silence critics and attack the free press, and the legality of “blue” state efforts to suppress minority voting under the Voting Rights Act. Later, Ben and Michael take on the ethics of Big Law firms hired to shill for Trump, including McGuireWoods’ secret work to root out anti-Trump staff at Voice of America.
