Legal AF by MeidasTouch

Once a week, Popok is unleashed in a freewheeling and freeform unplugged commentary on Popok Live on the MeidasTouch Network. This week Popok dives into: the NY law firm that represented Shay Moss and Ruby Freeman and obtained their $150 million dollar defamation judgment against Giuliani, just agreed to give the Trump Administration $100 million in free legal services and kill their DEI hiring program; Hands Off protest day is this Saturday, and Senator Corey Booker fires back at Alina Habba's attacks with a 25+ hour marathon filibuster speech; a new Nationwide Injunction has been entered to protect the proud, hardworking, tax paying people of Venezuela from being deported based on Trump's racist policies; Trump's Liberation Day on Wednesday which is his euphemism for ending the US economy through a tariff war, threatens the career of his Commerce Secretary, why Trump, knowing he can't win a third term, continues to troll America and the media to make him seem relevant and not lame duck, and so much more.Support Our Sponsors:Fast Growing Trees: Head to https://www.fast-growing-trees.com/collections/sale?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=legalaf right now to get 15% off your entire order with code LegalAF!iRestore: Reverse hair loss with @iRestorelaser and get $625 off with the code LEGALAF at https://irestorelaser.com/LEGALAF! #irestorepodRemember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts:MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcastLegal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-afMissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trialThe PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcastThe Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassanMea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohenThe Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-showBurn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boatsMajority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdownOn Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellmanUncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncoveredCoalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane Learn more about your ad choices.

Americans are waking up to the fact that Trump’s economic policies are not for them; and polling numbers show that they they understand that Trump is making their lives worse off, as the world economies and what used to be the US trading partners brace for “Liberation Day” on Wednesday, when Trump callously imposes tariffs around the world, pushing the US ever closer to a recession. Michael Popok puts on his Wall Street hat, and takes a close look at new polling numbers and economic data from around the world, as the Trump Economy is rejected.Dose: Save 30% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/LEGALAF or entering LEGALAF at checkout.Remember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts:MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcastLegal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-afMissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trialThe PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcastThe Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassanMea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohenThe Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-showBurn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boatsMajority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdownOn Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellmanUncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncoveredCoalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane Learn more about your ad choices.

AG Pam “Lock her Up” Bondi and FBI Director Kash “Jail Hillary” Patel have failed the great test by “signaling” that they will NOT open an investigation into whether Espionage Act and other crimes were committed by the top Trump security, defense, and military leaders by leaking war plans in an unsecured messaging platform, as Bondi responds to reporters questions today by blaming Biden, Hunter Biden and Hillary Clinton, and demonstrating that she’s not a trusted independent Attorney General, she’s a political hack for Trump.Start your new morning ritual & get up to 43% OFF your @MUDWTR by going to https://mudwtr.com/LEGALAF #mudwtrpodRemember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts:MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcastLegal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-afMissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trialThe PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcastThe Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassanMea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohenThe Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-showBurn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boatsMajority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdownOn Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellmanUncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncoveredCoalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane Learn more about your ad choices.

As an appeals court questions whether suspected “Nazis” in America during WWII received more due process than the undocumented people deported in the middle of the night by Trump with a phony use of his “war powers,” the Trump Administration files yet another misleading response with the trial judge arguing erroneously that the judge’s oral injunction that they failed to comply with by continuing to deport people to the killer prisons of El Salvador, was invalid. Michael Popok explains it all.For 20% off your order head to https://LaundrySauce.com/LEGALAF20 and use code LEGALAF20Remember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts:MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcastLegal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-afMissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trialThe PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcastThe Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassanMea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohenThe Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-showBurn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boatsMajority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdownOn Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellmanUncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncoveredCoalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane Learn more about your ad choices.

Michael Popok and Karen Friedman Agnifilo join forces again on the Legal AF podcast, and debate the success of a new federal lawsuit to accuse the Trump Administration of violating, what else, the Federal Records Act by having a "signal group chat" about war plans, a case assigned to Trump's least favorite judge Chief Judge Boasberg(!); an update on the Alien Enemies Act case in which a trial judge and now a federal appeals court have stopped Trump dead in his tracks from using a phony "war proclamation" to invoke war powers and deport people in the middle of night without due process; how soon Attorneys General will sue this week the Trump Administration to stop their assault on voting rights and the creation of new barriers to people voting through phony "ID" laws through Executive Orders; and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.Support Our Sponsors:Zbiotics: Head to https://zbiotics.com/LegalAF to get 15% off your first order when you use LEGALAF at checkout.Qualia: Head to https://qualialife.com/LEGALAF and use promo code: LEGALAF at checkout for 15% off your purchase!Soul: Go to https://GetSoul.com and use code LEGALAF to get 30% OFF your order!Three Day Blinds: For their buy 1 get 1 50% off deal, head to https://3DayBlinds.com/LEGALAFRemember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts:MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcastLegal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-afMissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trialThe PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcastThe Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassanMea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohenThe Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-showBurn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boatsMajority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdownOn Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellmanUncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncoveredCoalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane Learn more about your ad choices.

At least 2 right-wing Supreme Court justices (Alito and Thomas) support having unregulated ghost guns used in tens of thousands of crimes and killings each year, but fortunately, 7 others led by Justice Gorsuch have just supported a Biden-era regulation making ghost gun kit manufacturers for DIY home gun makers subject to registration and background checks. Michael Popok takes a look at the new bombshell ruling and what it means for guns in America.Head to https://qualialife.com/LEGALAF and use promo code: LEGALAF at checkout for 15% off your purchase!Remember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts:MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcastLegal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-afMissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trialThe PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcastThe Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassanMea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohenThe Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-showBurn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boatsMajority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdownOn Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellmanUncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncoveredCoalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane Learn more about your ad choices.

First, we had the hearings, and now we have the first federal suit filed against Trump’s bungling top Security and Defense officials and the Vice President, for using a communications platform (Signal) that makes their communications “disappear” all in violation of the Federal Records Act and obligations under the Freedom of information Act, and guess who the case has been assigned to? You guessed it, Trump’s favorite “lunatic, corrupt judge” Chief Judge of the DC District Court Jeb Boasberg. Popok takes up cosmic justice and explains the case and why its going to move on a very fast track.Head to https://zbiotics.com/LegalAF to get 15% off your first order when you use LEGALAF at checkout.Remember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts:MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcastLegal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-afMissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trialThe PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcastThe Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassanMea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohenThe Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-showBurn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boatsMajority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdownOn Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellmanUncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncoveredCoalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane Learn more about your ad choices.

Michael Popok provides urgent real-time live briefing on late-breaking law and politics events from today. Tonight, Popok examines one of the greatest breaches of national security in our history by an Administration with a chat group about war plans gets sent to a journalist, as the feeding frenzy starts and Pete Hegseth gets thrown under the bus by his own colleagues, and Trump declares "they did WHAT?"; the Trump Administration tells a federal judge to go pound sand and refuses to reveal whether they breached his injunction to stop using the Alien Enemies Act to deport people to a killer prison in El Salvador without due process, as an appellate court declares that Nazis were treated better by the US than Trump is treating the deported now; the Supreme Court considers whether to block the rehiring of 16,000 probationary workers; the Supreme Court considers whether 2 black voting districts in Louisiana is too many; Alina Habba being groomed by Trump for higher office; and JD Vance being sent to Siberia...er, Greenland to join his wife because he was a bad boy and let war plans leak out to the press, and so much more at the intersection of law of politics.Support Our Sponsors:Hims: Thanks to HIMS!

Alina Habba has gone from representing parking lot owners and being sanctioned by federal judges and losing major federal cases for Trump, to being promoted to serve as the Acting Interim US Attorney for NJ, a state Trump is retaliating against to pay them back with Habba for not voting for him. Michael Popok (NJ born and bred) explains why the last US Attorney only lasted 3 weeks, and why Habba got a promotion.Get 20% OFF your DeleteMe plan by texting LEGAL to 64000Remember to subscribe to ALL the MeidasTouch Network Podcasts:MeidasTouch: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/meidastouch-podcastLegal AF: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/legal-afMissTrial: https://meidasnews.com/tag/miss-trialThe PoliticsGirl Podcast: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-politicsgirl-podcastThe Influence Continuum: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-influence-continuum-with-dr-steven-hassanMea Culpa with Michael Cohen: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/mea-culpa-with-michael-cohenThe Weekend Show: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/the-weekend-showBurn the Boats: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/burn-the-boatsMajority 54: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/majority-54Political Beatdown: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/political-beatdownOn Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellmanUncovered: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/maga-uncoveredCoalition of the Sane: https://meidasnews.com/tag/coalition-of-the-sane Learn more about your ad choices.
