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. This week Ben and Popok discuss and analyze:

1. The Jan6 Committee’s upcoming June hearings on the Insurrection that one senior member claims will “blow the roof” off of Congress as it describes an “inside coup” led by Trump.

2. The DOJ adding a new lead prosecutor to head the Jan6 prosecutions, including leading the prosecutors focusing on Trump and his inner circle.

3. Marjory Taylor Greene’s efforts to avoid being thrown off the upcoming ballot for reelection as an insurrectionist, and her providing the first sworn testimony of any member of Congress about their role on Jan6.

4. Newly-discovered audio recordings confirming that Kevin McCarthy sought to have Trump resign for his role in the insurrection, and that Trump had confessed about his role in the attack on the Capitol.

5. Alex Jones being hit with over $1mm in fines by a Texas judge presiding over his defamation trial related to his denying that the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre actually happened, his filing for bankruptcy to avoid liability, and his contacting the DOJ to cooperate concerning the Jan6 criminal investigation.

6. A new lawsuit filed against Florida Governor DeSantis’ racist redistricting maps, adding 4 new republican seats while cutting Black representation in half.

7. The DOJ filing a new appeal to reverse a Florida Federal judge’s decision last week finding the CDC’s Mask Mandate to be illegal.
