Hate Crimes, Hateful Rhetoric, and Racial Bias in Hiring & Redistricting

Hate Crimes, Hateful Rhetoric, and Racial Bias in Hiring & Redistricting

Anchored by MT founder and civil rights lawyer, Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and strategist, Michael Popok, the top-rated news analysis podcast LegalAF x MeidasTouch is back for another hard-hitting, thought-provoking look in “real time” at this week’s developments. On this episode, Ben and Popok discuss: 1. A Federal Court’s rejection of convicted murderer Travis McMichael’s plea deal on federal hate crimes due to Ahmaud Arbery’s family objections, meaning he goes to trial this week facing another life sentence. 2. A black woman being convicted and sentenced to 6 years in prison for trying to vote before her probation was over. 3. NFL coach Brian Flores, one of only 2 NFL Black head coaches, filing a class action suit against the NFL and some of its teams because of its racially-segregated “Plantation”-like system. 4. The Fulton County (GA) District Attorney fighting off racist attacks on her credibility as she moves closer to having a Special Grand Jury gather the evidence she needs to indict Trump for criminal interference in the election process. 5. A Federal Court’s overturning a Texas law preventing state contractors from exercising their First Amendment rights concerning the Israel-Palestinian conflict. 6. The Ghislaine Maxwell Federal Judge deciding whether to unseal the defense’s motion for new trial on the basis that “Juror 50” failed to disclose that he had been a victim of sex abuse in the jury selection process. 7. State Supreme Courts protecting voting rights in redistricting in ways Federal Courts and SCOTUS have refused, giving victories to Democratic voters in Ohio and Pennsylvania so far. 8. Updates to the Jan6 Committee’s work including 3 more key cooperators. 9. Pence’s too little too late admission that Trump was wrong about Pence having the power to overturn an election, and the GQP’s latest Orwellian attempts to refrain the Jan6 Insurrectionist and attempted violent coup, as a mere “legitimate political discourse” And much more.

Trump Attempt to Hide Dark Past Revealed in Shock New FBI Emails

In new reporting, previously unknown FBI emails now released show that “phase 2” representing a the rest of the Epstein files were 73 percent ready to be produced as early as April, but then Trump and AG Bondi killed the FBI review project hoping never to produce the documents especially those connected to Trump. Michael Popok reports on the new information and the existence of a long forgotten “Exhibit List” for Epstein’s criminal case that can be used as a check against what is ultimately produced to identify what’s been hidden still.

Trump FBI in Panic After Massive Leak From Within

Trump FBI in Panic After Massive Leak From Within

Trump’s nasty habit of “leaking” gossip to the NY Post may be back and with a vengeance against FBI Director Kash Patel and his deputy Dan Bongino, as Michael Popok spots a rat in the “leak” of a scathing FBI insider 115 page written report effectively calling for their firing ending up in the lap of Trump’s podcaster of choice, the NY Post’s Miranda Devine. Popok explains how Patel’s days are numbers, and the likely new FBI Director being the former Missouri AG Andrew Bailey who is close to Pam Bondi and Todd Blanche.

Trump Appeal Shredded by Judges as Habba Gets Tossed

Trump Appeal Shredded by Judges as Habba Gets Tossed

In breaking news, a unanimous Third Circuit Court of Appeals just affirmed the disqualification of Trump’s former criminal defense lawyer and political hack, Alina Habba, to serve as the US Attorney for NJ. Michael Popok explains how this is similar but different than last week’s disqualification of Trump’s other novice prosecutor Lindsey Halligan, and how Justice Sam Alito will likely be deciding soon whether Habba remains in her office while the appeal makes its way to the US Supreme Court.

The firing of Lindsey Halligan is a symptom of a greater disease effecting the DOJ and the Trump Administration. The restart of the criminal contempt proceedings against the Trump Administration is another symptom of the same disease. The new lawsuit to stop an illegal criminal investigation of a member of Congress is an antidote to that disease. A decision has been made about Trump’s Georgia criminal prosecution that demonstrates what happens when the wrong prosecutor gets a case.

The Intersection with Michael Popok Full Episode - 11/25/2025

The American Revolution (the documentary) is on Popok’s mind, along with “Common Sense” as he uses 4 new law and politics developments to explain how we are in our “King George” moment and patriots must respond. On the Intersection Podcast, Popok dives deep into what the firing of Lindsey Halligan by a Federal Judge means and what will happen in the next 72 hours that should set your hair on fire. Then he turns to a brand new federal court order that the Trump DOJ and FBI must IMMEDIATELY turn over all communication between Trump and Epstein without further delay, and whether Judge Chutkan’s battle with Trump will turn out better this time. Judge Boasberg revives his criminal contempt proceedings against the Trump Administration and DOJ which threatens to have Trump’s former criminal defense lawyer and now Fed Appellate Court Judge Emil Bove found in criminal contempt. Rep Eric Swalwell fires the first salvo suing Trump’s attack dog Bill Pulte for his phony mortgage fraud charges and investigation first, winning that all important race to the courthouse. Finally, Popok explains why Former DOJ veteran Joe Schnitt sues to get his old DOJ job back after being fired for telling a dating app “undercover” the truth about Trump and the Epstein Files and coverup and getting fired for it.

Trump's Secret Circle Comes Back to Haunt Him as Files Near...

Trump's Secret Circle Comes Back to Haunt Him as Files Near...

Trump doesn’t just have an Epstein child sex trafficking problem; he has a problem in that he was friends with 3 different people accused, indicted, or convicted of preying on and sexually abusing girls: Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and the late John Casablancas.  As Maxwell demands a second immunity agreement because she likely knows she committed perjury when she testified to Trump’s DOJ, Popok examines the relationship between Trump, Epstein, Casablancas and their purported “modeling agencies,” “beauty pageants” including some based in Trump’s Plaza Hotel, and the relationship between Casablancas and Epstein, as the survivors continue to demand justice and that AG Bondi not block the release of any files with Trump’s name on them.

Trump Gets Wrecked as Dismissal Tanks Comey Case

Trump Gets Wrecked as Dismissal Tanks Comey Case

Looks like Trump AG Pam Bondi is responsible for having both the Former FBI Director James Comey and current NY AG Tish James indictments tossed today by a federal judge, along with Lindsey Halligan as interim US Attorney in Virginia. Michael Popok digs deep into Judge Currie’s earth-shattering twin rulings today, in which she rejects Bondi’s appointment of Halligan as illegal, and scoffs at Bondi’s last-minute series of retroactive ratification “memos” as she declares Halligan an illegal, non-prosecutor when she obtained the now dismissed indictments. Popok also explains who fills the immediate prosecutor vacancy (and it ain’t Trump); and what is likely to happen next in the cases with emergency appeals and social media attacks by Trump and his DOJ.
