Dominion, Drug Sentence Clemency, COVID Law, GQP Legal Losers, and More!

The top-ranked weekly law and politics podcast — Legal AF — produced by MeidasTouch and hosted by MT founder and civil rights lawyer, Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and strategist, Michael Popok, is now on its own podcast channel, and brought its 17 prior episode archive along for the ride. On today’s episode, Ben and Popok use their special brand of hard-hitting analysis and genial straight-talk to explore Dominion Voting Systems recent courtroom successes in their billion dollar defamation cases against Trump, Trump Jr., Sidney ‘Kraken’ Powell, Giuliani, My Pillow Guy, and now the founder of Overstock.com, for perpetuating the Big Lie that an international cabal, combined with key federal agencies AND Chief Justice Roberts, used AI to help President Biden win the presidency. The hosts then update listeners on cases that have been followed since LAF’s inception, including the recent SCOTUS eviction ban cases, and how federal courts around the country have been handling mandatory vax and vax passport requirements. Next up, the “Analytic Friends” discuss the public policy implications of federal criminal justice and sentencing reform as POTUS considers using his Constitutional clemency powers to address disproportioned convictions and sentencing of recreational drug users. The episode ends with a discussion of whether federal prosecutors in DC are going too easy on January 6th insurrectionists, a question recently asked out loud by the Chief Judge of the DC federal court handling 500 such cases. Easter Egg Alert: Ben and Popok discuss the right-wing’s literal death grip on COVID to use it as a nonsensical “wedge issus” to win back national office.
