Trump’s lawyers are caught TAKING INCONSISTENT POSITIONS again in different criminal and appeal courts about Trump’s alleged “core political” “First Amendment Right” to COMMIT CRIMES. Michael Popok breaks down Trump’s Georgia criminal defense lawyer’s FAILED FIRST AMENDMENT arguments to dismiss the indictment, and how they are the EXACT OPPOSITE of positions Trump’s OTHER LAWYERS are making to the US Supreme Court for the immunity appeal hearing. Special Counsel Jack Smith is likely salivating at this moment!

Trump’s continued false and defamatory attacks on Judges and their families —like Judge Merchan’s daughter or Judge Engoron’s wife, threatens to destabilize our democracy, and puts them in serious harms’ way. Michael Popok explores Trump’s calculated attacks on the soft underbelly of our court system—judge’s wives and children—and what needs to be done about it now.

Defense attorney Michael Popok & former prosecutor Karen Friedman Agnifilo are back with a new episode of the midweek edition of the Legal AF pod. On this episode, they debate: developments in the Manhattan DA prosecution of Trump as the Judge prepares for the April 15th trial and reprimands Trump’s lawyers while gagging Trump; whether the appellate court lowering the bond amount 62 PERCENT that Trump has to put up to stop enforcement of the $465 million civil fraud judgment means that they are concerned about certain aspects of the trial judge’s rulings; whether Fulton County DA Fani Willis will move for a new indictment of Trump as the trial court considers new motions to dismiss, whether the US Supreme Court will rule that a woman does not have a right to access medicated abortion pills, and so much more at the intersection of law, politics and justice.

The criminal judge in the Trump trial to start April 15 just GAGGED Trump to stop his attack on PROSECUTORS, STAFF, WITNESSES and JURORS. Michael Popok compares this order to the federal gag order still in place against Trump and explains why this one will survive any emergency appeal by Trump to let him bash the system during press conferences and on social media.
