Legal AF by MeidasTouch

Michael Popok and Karen Friedman Agnifilo are back for the midweek edition of the top-rated Legal AF podcast. On this episode, the anchors discuss and debate: (1) Judge Cannon’s latest missteps in the Mar a Lago criminal prosecution of Trump, and whether it will lead to an appeal to the 11th Circuit; (2) the next steps in the criminal sentencing of Trump in New York, including his recent probation department interview and revelation about his illegal gun ownership; (3) the further decay of the US Supreme Court, with the Chief Justice circling the drain, and justice’s wives continuing to pose a threat to democracy and the rule of law; (4) the Hunter Biden conviction, putting it in context and what it says about the integrity of our justice system, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.Join the Legal AF Patreon: https://Patreon.com/LegalAFThanks to our sponsors: Smileactives: Visit https://smileactives.com/legalaf to get this exclusive offer!Nom Nom: Go Right Now for 50% off your no-risk two week trial at https://TryNom.com/LEGALAFMiracle Made: Upgrade your sleep with Miracle Made!

Based on her track record and the 3 Cannon Principles Michael Popok explains, it is likely in the Mar a Lago criminal case that she will find “interesting” the fake argument by Trump’s lawyers that they didn’t properly maintain the integrity of each of the 30+ boxes they seized during the raid, including the ones that were broken and busted and with top secret documents falling out of them stashed in hidden locations by Trump. Michael explains the “spoliation” motion and why it should fail, in any other federal court room.

Michael Popok —a practicing NY lawyer—explains Trump’s unlikely path to have his criminal conviction overturned on appeal in New York, when he can actually take his appeal, the likelihood that NY’s highest court will even be interested in such an appeal, the timing of the appeal late process, and whether the Supreme Court will bail out Trump.

Trump’s interview with the NY probation department to allow them to prepare a presentencing recommendation to the trial judge before he sentences him on 7/11, has the real possibility of quickly jumping the track, as Trump and his lawyers try to use the interview to argue that Trump’s criminal trial was a “witch hunt”, and “lawless” and will be “reversed” and he should get no punishment. Michael Popok explains what will likely occur during the interview and how that will shape the outcome of the report.Head to https://Rhone.com/LEGALAF and use code LEGALAFto save 20% off your entire order!Visit https://meidastouch.com for more!Join us on Patreon: https://patreon.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-afThe 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-beatdownLights On with Jessica Denson: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/lights-on-with-jessica-densonOn Democracy with FP Wellman: https://www.meidastouch.com/tag/on-democracy-with-fpwellman Learn more about your ad choices.

If Trump is elected he has publicly declared he will DESTROY THE DOJ, capture it to do his bidding, and use the Attorney General (think indicted Jeff Clark) and other prosecutors of has choosing to retaliate against his political enemies, and not just President Biden.

Steve Bannon is heading to jail for four months due to contempt of Congress, a decision cemented by a significant legal precedent. Michael Popok discusses the failure of Bannon's defenses, including executive privilege, and how his appeals fell flat in court. The timing of his incarceration during the campaign adds a twist to his political future, especially with potential pardons off the table. As prison politics unfold, listeners get insights into MAGA's strategies and the dwindling legal support for high-profile defendants like Bannon.

Trump’s criminal conviction caused an impairment of his media company’s “good will” that should have been disclosed under securities laws but hasn’t been. Michael Popok using his Wall Street legal experience breaks it all down.
