Trump has “TACO’d” again and has drop his demand that Rupert Murdoch be deposed “immediately” because he’s “old and sick” in his defamation case against the Wall Street Journal in Miami Federal Court. Michael Popok explains that what likely happened is that Murdoch’s lawyers told Trump’s lawyers that if he doesn’t drop the demand, they will move for sanctions AND immediately take Trump’s deposition the next day.

50 Texas Democratic lawmakers who left Texas for Illinois to prevent the Texas House from approving unconstitutional redistricting maps that eliminate 5 Federal House dems seats, are beating Texas MAGA at their own game. Michael Popok explains why this “quorum breaking” move is legal under Texas law; why the arrest warrants issued by Texas won’t reach into Illinois; and how this tactic could likely lead to the bad maps being pulled off the table.

Trump-enomics may have just crashed the economy, as new revised job numbers show that Trump and his economic team have been lying to the American people about job growth— with new numbers showing that almost 260,000 LESS jobs were created by Trump in May and June than he previously reported. And Manufacturing supply chain managers have stopped buying inventory. Trump response: call for a Federal Reserve coup to take over the Fed, and cut rates, yet another Coup-moment for Trump. Michael Popok puts on his Wall Street hat to report.

After the “gold standard” of federal economic data —the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics— issued revised job number for the Trump Economy showing a LOSS of 258,000 jobs for May and June and low job growth for July — factors the Federal Reserve was worried about to keep interest rates steady, Trump fired the nonpartisan lifetime government civil servant statistician and economist who reported the numbers, falsely claiming without any evidence that she “rigged” the numbers. Michael Popok reports that this scheme to undermine Federal economic data by Trump actually started in February when he closed the Federal Economic Statistics Advisory Committee and defunded the Bureau of Labor StAtistics.

In a major setback to Trump’s attack on Blue States and State Sovereignty, a federal judge has just dismissed one of half a dozen falsely labeled “Sanctuary City” suits brought by Trump’s DOJ against Blue States and Cities and his political rivals who refuse to cooperate with funding or personnel to help Trump enforce his depraved Immigration policies. Michael Popok explains how this ruling will be the blueprint used by federal judges in NY, California, NJ, and other states as Federal Judges find new ways to deal Trump more losses.

Trump’s Tariff scheme and fictional “trade deals” will go up in flames and soon, based on the heavy skepticism shown by most of the judges of the Trump defense of his “tariff power” at a hearing before the full 11 judges of the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals.Or as one one succinctly put it “there is no mention of the word ‘tariff’ in the emergency power statute you rely on!’” Michael Popok gives an overview of the oral argument, and when Trump may have to start refunding billions of dollars of fraudulent tariffs.
