The Intersection with Michael Popok Full Episode - 7/29/2025
Join Popok at the Intersection where he takes your questions, doesn’t pull any punches and is completely uncensored. Tonight, along with audience questions, he briefs the audience on: 1) late breaking Epstein news, including Trump’s admission that he knew that Epstein was using Mar a Lago as a hunting ground for his pedophile ring; 2) the corrupt members of the DOJ running into trouble keeping their US Attorney position (Habba) or their appellate court nomination (Bove); 3) an additional layer of grimey grift by Trump as he not only waits to receive his $400 million dollar Qatari plane/bribe, but uses tax payer dollars to turn his Trump Organization Golf Course celebration in Scotland into an “official” public event; 4) the truth behind the non-binding, unenforceable completely impossible to accomplish EU tariff non-deal, deal, and how this shows how unmoored from reality Trump and his cabinet are about what matters to the American people, and so much more at the Intersection.

Major Whistleblowers Drop Damning Info on Trump Lawyer
Emil Bove, Trump’s former criminal defense lawyer, has a second whistleblower that’s filed a complaint with the DOJ Office of Inspector General, claiming that Bove promoted DOJ attorneys to disobey federal court orders related to the removal without due process of migrants. Michael Popok also calls out the obscene practice of the DOJ lobbying the public to support Bove for what is supposed to be an “independent” federal judge lifetime appointment, reminding everyone that Bove will be “Trump’s Judge” if confirmed this week.

Ghislaine Runs to SCOTUS and Demands Urgent Hearing
Epstein’s co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell, fresh off her being granted immunity by Trump, just filed a final brief begging the Supreme Court to let her out of jail and overturn her NY conviction, NOT because she didn’t commit the crimes, or their were errors in her trial or witness tampering, but because she argues she should get the benefit of a non prosecution agreement Epstein signed decades ago with Florida prosecutors. Michael Popok explains why the Supreme Court will likely drag their feet on ruling to benefit Trump as he makes his decision to pardon a convicted child sex trafficker to save his own ass.

Trump Holds Secret Meeting to Take Over Network
In a secret meeting between CBS and CBS News’ new owners and the Trump Administration , they promised Trump that they would effectively be the new Fox News propaganda outlet of them, running Trump approved ads, and putting Trump friendly news and programming on the air. And shocker — Trump’s FCC just approved the sale of CBS’ parent to a big Trump supporter’s son. Michael Popok takes a hard look at a new letter that reveals it all, and what it means for CBS and its viewership. You don’t want your MTV anymore.

Cornered Trump Buried by His Own Scandals
In just 6 months, Trump presides over the most scandal-scarred and corrupt Department of Justice in US History, which is all coming to a head in the way the DOJ is being willingly used by Trump to try to stop him from “being f’d” in the Epstein Pedophile Coverup scandal. Michael Popok catalogues all the corruption scandals in reverse chronological order starting with Alina Habba US Attorney appointment, DOJ leadership trying to clear Trump’s name through Epstein’s co-conspirator and Trump’s considering using his pardon power to cover up the scandal; the use of a phony conspiracy investigation agains the Clintons and Obama; Emil Bove’s corruption on full display in his judicial appointment confirmation hearing, and federal judges already not believing a word the the DOJ says in their courtrooms, and finding them in contempt.

Trump Shut Down by Judge in Epstein Cover-Up
Trump’s puppet theater of trying to convince the American people that he is in favor of full transparency concerning the Epstein pedophile conspiracy which Trump is at the heart of, has hit a major roadblock, as a Florida federal judge has denied his request to release the 2005 Epstein grand jury transcripts, as two NY judges consider a similar request. Michael Popok, who knows the Florida judge well, fits all the puzzle pieces together between the 2 NY federal judges, the 1 Florida federal judge, Ghislane Maxwell’s attorney, Alan Dershowitz, Trump’s former secretary of labor, and the DOJ’s Todd Blanch. You will want to sit down for this one.

Trump Top Advisor Busted Betting Against Own Deals
You know how we know that Trump and his Administration don’t believe that their Tariffs are legal? The Commerce Secretary’s former company, “owned” by his sons, is offering to buy 100s of millions of tariff payment claims betting heavily that Trump’s Tariffs, promoted by their daddy, will be ruled illegal and unconstitutional in the courts. Michael Popok ties it all together on his latest hot take.

The Intersection with Michael Popok Full Episode - 7/22/2025
What's at the Intersection? Major developments in the Epstein pedophile coverup by Trump, including Trump perhaps pressuring Epstein's co conspirator to say Trump was never involved in order to get a pardon, exploiting a little covered relationship with Trump's DOJ; the DOJ taking steps to get Habba back her job as NJ US Attorney; Trump chickening out about firing the Federal Reserve Chairman Jay Powell as Trump's minions claim that he committed "fraud" to pressure him to go; Trump's own Commerce Secretary's "former" company betting against the legality of Trump's tariffs; and Tulsi Gabbard discovering phony evidence that she won't reveal that there was a "seditious conspiracy" of intelligence community officials to claim Russia colluded with Trump to win the election.
