Chief Justice Issues Shock Statement on Trump

In an unprecedented and historic development, Chief Justice Roberts has opened a direct dialogue with Trump in public, admonishing him in a statement in real-time for attacking Federal Judge Boasberg this morning for blocking his illegal use of war powers to deport people in a social media rant, calling him a lunatic and calling for his all caps “IMPEACHMENT”. Michael Popok takes a deep dive into Roberts' direct finger-wagging at Trump, his historic decision to do it outside the confines of an actual court ruling as the chief administrator and defender of the federal court system, and what it could mean when the case ends up before the Supreme Court.Go to http://mackweldon.com/?utm_source=streaming&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=podcastlaunch&utm_content=LEGALAFutm_term=LEGALAF and get 20% off your first order with promo code 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.

Judge Lays the Smack Down on Trump over War Powers

The only thing standing between the Trump Administration’s open defiance and our constitutional Republic and rule of law is Chief Judge of the DC District Court, Jeb Boasberg, who dressed down Trump DOJ lawyers who tried to argue that they did not have to comply with his oral rulings and that the Chief Judge was not qualified to obtain classified information and had no jurisdiction to stop Trump’s use of his presidential powers to deport people without a hearing to a brutal supermax prison in El Salvador. Things went downhill from there for Trump’s DOJ. Michael Popok looks closely at last night’s bombshell hearing, and what the Judge and appellate courts up to the Supreme Court will do next.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.

Trump Throws Late Night Fit After Biden Derails Plan

Trump is claiming that Biden’s Pardons of his family, Jan6 Committee Members, Dr. Fauci and General Milley among others, are invalid and that it won’t stop his DOJ from going after them, because Biden did what all presidents have done before him, used the aid of a Mechanical autopen to sign written pardon declarations, Michael Popok explains that the power of the pardon is absolute, and does not require writing at all, and that the use of the Autopen to sign pardons is common practice including during the GW Bush Administration, as the Supreme Court will have to stop Trump in his tracks and reaffirm the absolute power of a president to pardon.Upgrade your sleep with Miracle Made!

Trump Sinks to New Low and Rejects Order on War Powers

A new constitutional crisis has broken out with the Trump Administration refusing to comply, again, with a Federal judge’s orders. In a new filing, The Trump Administration just confessed to violating a Court Order to stop Trump’s unconstitutional exercise of war powers to deport hundreds of people to El Salvador and Honduras in violation of a DC Chief Judge’s order blocking that action, and the ACLU representing Plaintiffs have filed this morning their Notice to the Court outlining that the ways in which Trump has violated the Court’s order, and demanding that the Court intervene and take action. Michael Popok breaks down what has happened in the last 48 hours, and what will happen next in court.To get our $297 when you buy a PAIR offer, including a free charger, head to https://ShopMDHearing.com and use code LEGALAF.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.

Fed-Up Judge Hits Back After Trump Ignores Order

Fed Up Judge Blows the Doors Wide Open on Trump & DOGE

In breaking news, a DC Federal Judge has for the first time found that Elon Musk and his DOGE are “federal agencies” exercising tremendous independent executive power at lightning speed and in secret, meaning they are subject to public records requests about their nefarious work aka FOIA requests. Michael Popok explains why this first ruling is so important to outing Musk and DOGE for the American people and in the dozen lawsuits against Trump now about Musk, and how the fight about whether Musk is a “simple advisor” with no power and thus subject to executive privilege, or is an independent actor is heading to the Supreme Court.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!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.
