Trump FBI Director in Shock as Meidas Video Exposes Him in Hearing
FBI Director Kash Patel faced intense questioning about the Epstein cover-up, particularly scrutinized by Rep. Ted Lieu. A revealing clip featuring journalist Michael Wolff sparked heated debate on evidence handling. Wolff described shocking findings from Epstein's home, including compromising photos involving Trump. The discussion highlighted Patel's lack of experience and alleged professional malpractice in not reviewing key files. Critics argue that Trump’s reluctance to release Epstein documents stems from potential self-incrimination.

Trump Hit Hard amid Disaster Lawsuit
The NYT has already fire back at Trump and scoffed at his $15 billion dollar defamation suit by publishing a new expose just hours after the suit was filed, accusing Trump, his family and closest advisors, of allowing military grade AI computer chips to be sold to the United Arab Emirates, a close China ally, but only in return for UAE investing $2 billion dollars with Trump’s cryptocurrency company to benefit Trump, his family and closest friends. Michael Popok takes a look at the Federal lawsuit and the quid pro quo exposed by the New York Times in response.

Trump WH Panics as Trump Accidentally Screws Them
A deep dive into the mortgage allegations swirling around Trump administration officials reveals a surprising pattern. Scott Bessent publicly attacks Fed Governor Lisa Cook for mortgage fraud, yet it turns out he has a similar mortgage history. The podcast dissects the checkbox practices used by lenders, arguing they reflect underwriting tactics rather than fraud. Additionally, Popok sheds light on the concerning trend of eliminating Black officials from power, while also urging critics to rethink their approach.

The Intersection with Michael Popok Full Episode - 9/16/2025
Kash Patel flames out and Fox News throws him an anchor not a life preserver during his Senate Judiciary Committee hearing testimony. Pam Bondi forgot that “hate speech” is just protected first amendment speech that she can’t prosecute, and Justice Sotomayor tells her so. Why hasn’t Brian Kilmeade been prosecuted by Pam Bondi for “hate speech” for calling for the “lethal injection” of unhoused Americans? Trump is on a fast track to another federal court sanction for bad faith lawsuit filing with the new “$55 billion dollar” defamation suit filed by Trump against the New York Times. And will the Epstein pedophile scandal take down 2 Administrations, as Trump visits the UK Prime Minister at the worst possible time. Michael Popok is at The Intersection to provide his unique brand of commentary.

Trump ‘Deal’ Exposed as Total Nightmare as Truth Exposed
Trump just brokered the sale of TikTok for the Chinese Communist Party to a likely friend or family member of Trump, but not before ensuring that China (and its military) receive Tens of Billions of US dollars in return for the sale, they can use to continue to hack, spy on, and militarily defeat the US. Michael Popok examines the new announced framework of the sale Trump “brokered” and what it shows about Trump selling out our National Security so he can burnish his “deal maker” reputation as the CEO of US Inc.

Whoa! Epstein Lead Prosecutor Sues Trump as Past Surfaces!
Maurene Comey, daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, has filed a significant federal lawsuit linked to her firing after prosecuting Epstein and Maxwell. The case highlights potential political retaliation from Trump and social media pressure from Laura Loomer. Legal expert Michael Popok analyzes constitutional claims regarding the firing and discusses how Trump's past actions might impact Comey's fight for reinstatement. With the Merit Systems Board in disarray, the stakes and implications of this case are monumental.

Legal AF Full Episode - 9/13/2025
What is the solution to draining politics out of political violence and addressing its multiple causes—and can it even be done with Trump and MAGA in office? How did Trump’s attempt to frame a Federal Reserve governor for fraud spectacularly blow up in his face? Why isn’t Kash Patel being fired immediately for misconduct and malfeasance as FBI Director, and what does that say about our true “homeland security”? What has been unearthed in newly leaked Epstein emails that throw Trump under the bus? How are federal judges responding to unheard-of interviews and using oral arguments to send scathing messages to the Supreme Court? Ben and Popok are in session to debate it all on the top-rated Legal AF podcast.

Smoking Gun Surfaces Blowing Up Trump’s Plan Against Fed
Newly discovered bank and tax documents show that Trump and one of his inner circle Bill Pulte have been lying to a federal court that Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook committed mortgage fraud by falsely claiming that she told her lender that 2 homes of hers were both “primary residences” in order to gain an economic and tax advantage. As Michael Popok reports based on Reuters expose, turns out that Cook told her lender in writing that her Atlanta property was a “vacation” or “second home” and she never declared the property as her “primary” for property tax purposes. On the other hand, Pulte’s own parents committed tax fraud that has been investigated by Michigan state officials.
