Unleashing the Kraken and the Prosecution of Trump

Trump, to try to distract from the fact that he has lost track of Iran’s uranium stockpile altogether, and failed to take out a 4th hardened mountain facility, is threatening to sue CNN and the New York Times for “defamation.” Michael Popok takes a look at the new demand letter, the lawyer behind it, and both media outlets telling Trump and his lawyers to pound sand as they stand by their reporting that the initial top secret reports found that Iran’s nuclear program was only set back a few months.

Moving at almost the speed of light and following Justice Sotomayor’s “direction”, public interest groups litigating to protect Birthright Citizenship have just hours after the Supreme Court ruled against them, filed a new motion for class action certification and for temporary injunction with a Maryland federal judge. Michael Popok explains how this is exactly what Justice Sotomayor called for in her dissent on Friday, and sets up a battle over the summer in the Supreme Court over whether Birthright Citizenship enshrined in the 14th Amendment survives.

E Jean Carroll is about to beat Trump for the third time in front of the Second Circuit Appeal, having lost last week on his bid to have the “United States of America” substitute in to avoid paying her the $83.5 million jury verdict judgement for sexually abusing and defaming her, and now about to lose in front of of the same judges on his argument that he has “presidential immunity” to defame her. Michael Popok puts it all together and what happens next at the Supreme Court on his latest hot take. Subscribe:  @LegalAFMTN  Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

In breaking news, the MAGA majority of the Supreme Court led by Amy Coney Barrett in the Birthright Citizenship/14th Amendment case,  just destroyed 100 years of precedent that allowed Federal trial court judges to issue nationwide injunctions to address the nationwide harm caused by a President’s abuse of power, declaring that only the Supreme Court can fashion nationwide relief. Michael Popok explains that to protect 14th Amendment birthright citizenship, lawyers in 3 states will have to move quickly to either certify a class action and/or get their cases declaring Trump’s Executive Order unconstitutional back to the US Supreme Court on an emergency basis, as tens of thousands of babies born in red states and thejr citizenship and federal funding hang in the balance.

The Trump Administration, continuing its assault on the Rule of Law, has just sued each and every of the 16 judges in the Maryland federal court system along with the Clerk, because the Chief Judge there has issued an administrate order providing that for 48 hours, Trump cannot send people outside of the country to avoid federal jurisdiction, until a federal judge has reviewed the habeas corpus petition. Michael Popok takes a deep look at the suit and discusses which judge will be assigned to the case outside of Maryland. Subscribe:  @LegalAFMTN  Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Did Justice Sotomayor just outfox the Trump DOJ by sending out an “invitation” to a Massachusetts federal judge to find a way to circumvent a recent Supreme Court ruling to make sure that deportees obtain due process before being sent to countries like South Sudan or Libya? Michael Popok takes a close look at Sotomayor’s dissent, the next steps taken by Judge Murphy to tell the Trump Administration that the Court’s ruling doesn’t stop his other “remedial” orders, and Trump’s DOJ rushing to the Court and asking for a “clarification” because the Judge is being mean and “defiant.” For their buy 1 get 1 50% off deal, head to https://3DayBlinds.com/LEGALAF Subscribe:  @LegalAFMTN  Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Michael Popok is back with Karen Friedman Agnifilo with the Legal AF podcast, the #1 law and politics podcast on this week's YouTube rankings, and they take on: 1) a judge finding that the Trump Administration's "evidence" did not support holding Kilmar Abrego in jail nor prove that he was in the MS13 gang; 2) Trump suing all the federal district judges in Maryland in a blatant example of forum shopping; 3) the ultimate DOJ insider blowing the whistle on the DOJ and its assault on federal judges and its impact on the confirmation hearings of Trump's top lawyer Emil Bove for a lifetime appeals court judge position; 4) the Trump Administration running back to the Supreme Court because a Federal Judge ruled that he still has jurisdiction to stop removals without due process to third world countries; 5) E Jean Carroll winning again for the second time in 2 weeks at the Second Circuit Court of Appeals to affirm her almost $100 million in judgments against Trump, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.
