🚨 Trump Gets Tables Turned on Him as DOJ Headed to Trial

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 look in “real time” at this week’s most consequential developments at the intersection of law and politics.  This week, Ben and Popok discuss and analyze: 1. The Fulton County (Atlanta) Georgia District Attorney moving closer to an indictment of Trump and others for election fraud and racketeering as the Special Grand Jury begins hearing from over 50 expected witnesses. 2. Former key Trump White House advisor Peter Navarro very bad week, ending with his being indicted for Criminal Contempt of Congress and arrested by Federal Marshals as he was about to board a plane, and being separately subpoenaed by a second DC Federal grand jury to give testimony on other January 6-based matters. 3. The Manhattan DA’s office moving closer to indicting Steve Bannon for the “build the wall” foundation fraud and his using charitable monies for personal living expenses. 4. Trump’s “Special Prosecutor” John Durham spending $4.2mm of taxpayer dollars only to lose badly his only jury trial, and Michael Sussman being acquitted by a jury finding that he did not lie to the FBI’s general counsel when he provided a tip that the Trump Organization and Putin’s Alpha Bank were working together. 5. The Florida Supreme Court denying an appeal to throw out DeSantis’ racist, gerrymandered electoral maps before voting starts in June and August, handing the Republicans a 20-8 advantage in House seats for the Midterms. 6. The US Supreme Court in a 5-4 decision siding, for now, against Texas’s SB20 law that would prevent large social media platforms from “de-platforming” users and taking down offensive, racist, sexist, violent content and “disinformation. And so much more.
