Legal AF Full Episode - 10/8/2025

President Biden’s SEC has just filed a new securities fraud suit against Elon Musk for manipulating the price of Twitter stock and causing the investing community $150 million in losses before he acquired the company. Michael Popok, using his Wall Street experience, explains that all of these Biden last-minute laws, rules, lawsuits, and policies, are important to Trump-proof democracy, and to force Trump to waste scarce time and political capital to publicly strike down these suits and policies, giving him less time and resources to implement his MAGA agenda.

No president created more jobs in MAGA red states than President Joe Biden, including this week’s spend of another $75 billion to protect Biden’s signature infrastructure and clean energy and climate change investments from Trump’s rollback. Michael Popok explains how GOP congress members will have to look their voters in the eye and explain why hundreds of thousands of jobs will disappear when Trump kills what’s left of these programs, setting the Democrats up nicely for midterm victory.

Will Congressional leadership ever get to see the Jack Smith Special Counsel Mar a Lago report and stinging rebuke of Trump (and the public as well), or will the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals reverse Judge Cannon and unblock her block. Michael Popok reports on a brand new head scratcher of an order from the 11th, that on one hand seems to both side with Cannon but also invite a new emergency appeal from the DOJ to allow the report to go to Congress.

Legal AF's Popok provides an urgent live briefing to our audience on late-breaking events and answers questions too! Tonight, Popok will address: 1) Even Judge Cannon couldn't save her "bff" Trump and the key findings of the Special Counsel's report on the DC Election Interference case against Trump (spoiler alert: The Special Counsel believes Trump is guilty of crimes); 2) The Senate Confirmation hearings have begun, and a fresh of lies and awkward attempts to walk back prior statements has already begun with Pentagon nominee Pete Hegseth. Will he survive? 3) the Supreme Court has suddenly become unreliable for Trump, with 2 losses this week and one last week, and the sudden rise of Amy Cony Barrett as the swing vote; 4) Bannon is attacking Musk and wants to bring him down; is this Trump using Bannon to cut Musk down to size? and 5) the memory of Jimmy Carter is already being disgraced by MAGA as they prepare for Trump's swearing in? Who's attending and who is giving a hard "pass", and who will laugh out loud as Trump swears to defend the Constitution. Support our Sponsors! Remi: Save your smile and your bank account with Remi!

Trump and his legal team are in dismay learning that they are not losing the $450 million civil fraud trial judge Judge Engoron, to reassignment after all! Michael Popok reports on Trump and the parties being told that the case was being reassigned to a Republican Staten Island judge who is embroiled in a series of ethical scandals which probably made Trump happy, but then the Court telling them that Engoron is not going anywhere after all.

In the end, even Trump’s most reliable “bff” in the criminal justice system, Judge Cannon turned on him and rejected his late-night filing to stop the release of the Jack Smith Special Counsel DC Election Interference final report, in classic “paperless order” style. Michael Popok takes it further and suggests that Trump has waived the dismissal of his indictment in the Mar a Lago case by moving to intervene to come back into the case and that the prosecution should continue against him.
