Legal AF by MeidasTouch

Journalists and Media Companies --not named CBS or ABC-- are starting to fight back against Trump and win. Michael Popok reports in a win this week for award winning investigative journalist Bob Woodward and his publisher against Trump in NY in a money fight over the ownership of the "Trump Tapes". A NY Federal Judge just found that Trump can't sue for $50 million because, as alleged, he is not the "co-author" of his own interview audio tapes with Woodward, and that he will have difficulty ever successfully suing the reporter and the publisher.

Trump knows that the Supreme Court, based on a May decision, won’t support him out and out firing “without cause” —like fraud or a crime—the Federal Reserve Chair and the nation’s central banker Jay Powell. Michael Popok calls out Trump’s efforts to use the F word (fraud) against Powell as he walks around with a firing letter in his back pocket, and why it will backfire with the electorate..and the US economy.

17 US Federal Judges in NJ are poised to meet this week and vote to rebuke Trump by refusing to extend the 120-day interim tenure of his pick for US Attorney Alina Habba. But does that mean that Habba is toast for a permanent appointment through the Senate? Would Trump try to breach Senate protocol and shove her candidacy through without the support of NJ Senators Booker or Kim? Popok breaks it all down in his latest hot take.

Trump’s own DOJ filed a new brief with the Supreme Court that explains to the world why Trump’s OWN coverup of the Epstein predatory sexual behavior is so wrong, but could also lead Trump to pardon Epstein’s co-conspirator G. Maxwell. Popok looks at the new DOJ filing, which puts a lie to Trump’s “nothing to see here; boring stuff” approach to scandal management, as Jim Comey’s daughter leaves office by calling Trump a “tyrant.” Fatty 15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to https://fatty15.com/LEGALAF and using code LEGALAF at checkout.

Michael Popok at The Intersection, as he takes on and takes down: 1) Trump, his close Epstein relationship and now MAGA now suspects that Trump is IN the covered-up files, and is not dismantling the deep state and chasing this conspiracy because he is "soft" on pedophilia and protecting Children; 2) scandal-scarred AG Pam Bondi leading a brain-drain at the DOJ enabled by the Supreme Court, as 70 Trump DOJ lawyers have quit rather than defend his policies in Court, and Bondi has fired another 2 dozen senior lawyers and replaced them with partisan hacks; 3) Trump lackey and former criminal defense lawyer Emil Bove may not be getting that coveted appeals court seat after all, as Senator Corey Booker calls for the whistleblowers to come forward and testify against Bove; 4) Trump-enomics is failing, as Americans suffer with much higher prices on everything, as Trump warps his economic policies by being beholden to the Crypto industry, and so much more at the intersection of law, politics and the defense of our democracy.

Who says there is no proof that Trump’s DOJ senior leadership told its lawyers to tell federal judges to go “f’ themselves” about Trump’s deportation and removal activities?, After the DOJ’s Emil Bove denied in his appeals court judge confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee that he uttered those words, the whistleblower found real time texts that prove that he did and threw Pam Bondi under the boss for good measure. Michael Popok explains that if this doesn’t tank Bove’s appeal court nomination, it will certainly catch the attention of Chief Judge Boasberg and Judge Xinis who were on the receiving end of the “f u”.

On the top ranked Legal AF podcast, Michael Popok is joined with guest anchor, attorney and activist Rachel Cohen, sitting in for KFA, who is also joining the Legal AF YouTube Channel as a regular contributor. Popok and Rachel take on: the different forms that defiance against this Administration can take including taking personal responsibility to actively participate in our participatory democracy; how to weaponize and turn the tables on Trump's attempt to weaponize the DOJ and whitewash Jan6; a big win for women's rights coming out of the Wisconsin Supreme Court; federal judges figuring out how to hold Trump accountable with new class actions and injunctions since the Supreme Court's "nationwide injunction" ruling, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

In stunning fashion, the 4-3 liberal majority of the Wisconsin Supreme Court just struck down a 176-year-old ban on abortion on the state books, pushed by MAGA to deny a woman her reproductive freedom, and declared that abortion is legal in Wisconsin and protected by more modern state statutes. Michael Popok explains how elected State Supreme Courts are on the front line to protect democracy, and Wisconsin provides the roadmap on how to resist at the state level.

Michael Popok on his new podcast The Intersection is back to brief the audience on breaking legal and political news. Join him as he tackles: 1) how the Trump budget bill can be used offensively to make Trump and MAGA pay for their policies; 2) how federal judges are crafting new injunctions to do an end run around the Supreme Court's decision, including a new injunction to stop the destruction of our public health services; 3) a federal judge who does not believe the Trump Administration when it tells her they will NOT DEPORT US BABIES to foreign countries and what she's going to do about it; 4) why a person suing because he was wrongfully deported and imprisoned without due process is now begging to be imprisoned in federal detention to protect him from the Trump Administration; 5) how Federal judges will address the due process and civil rights violation embodied by the Alligator Alcatraz, and so much more at The Intersection.

Almost missing the deadline, the Trump Administration has gotten around to appealing Judge Howell’s permanent injunction to stop Trump’s abuse of law firms — this time Perkins Code — and to block Trump from declaring them a “national security threat” as payback for some of their lawyers being involved in the Mueller investigation. Michael Popok looks at the new notice of appeal and lays out what happens next. Subscribe: @LegalAFMTN Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Forget the “academic” or the “hypothetical” — groups and lawyers that oppose Trump’s unconstitutional attack on Birthright Citizenship live in the real world, and in real time within hours of the Supreme Court’s Friday’s ruling forcing them to refile their cases as class actions seeking emergency injunctions, refiled their cases in Maryland first and then New Hampshire. But now that there are 2 almost identical cases seeking identical declarations from the federal courts that Trump’s executive order is unconstitutional, what is likely to happen next? Michael Popok explains what’s happened in the last 48 hours, and discusses a secret, little-known Court —the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation— dominated by Bush and Clinton appointees, that may decide which class action survives and which judge will make the ultimate decision.

In breaking news, Abrego Garcia has asked for and received an order that keeps him longer in federal detention to protect him from the Trump Administration deporting or removing him in the middle of the night away from Federal Court jurisdiction. The irony was not lost on Magistrate Judge Holmes who has ordered that Abrego Garcia remain in protective custody until his July 16th hearing before Judge Crenshaw and beyond. Michael Popok reports on this turn of affairs of a jailed person begging the court to stay in jail to be protected from the Trump Administration. Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Moving at almost the speed of light and following Justice Sotomayor’s “direction”, public interest groups litigating to protect Birthright Citizenship have just hours after the Supreme Court ruled against them, filed a new motion for class action certification and for temporary injunction with a Maryland federal judge. Michael Popok explains how this is exactly what Justice Sotomayor called for in her dissent on Friday, and sets up a battle over the summer in the Supreme Court over whether Birthright Citizenship enshrined in the 14th Amendment survives.

What do Trump lawyers Alina Habba and Ken Chesebro have in common? No, not that, but now one has been disbarred from practicing law in NY while the other has received a stinging new bar complaint seeking her disbarment in NJ. Michael Popok outlines the case against Trump’s political hack turned US Attorney for NJ (Habba) as outlined in the new bar grievance against her, and explains why Chesebro, one of the leaders of the “fake elector” scheme to steal the election from Biden, just lost his bar license in NY.

Trump, to try to distract from the fact that he has lost track of Iran’s uranium stockpile altogether, and failed to take out a 4th hardened mountain facility, is threatening to sue CNN and the New York Times for “defamation.” Michael Popok takes a look at the new demand letter, the lawyer behind it, and both media outlets telling Trump and his lawyers to pound sand as they stand by their reporting that the initial top secret reports found that Iran’s nuclear program was only set back a few months.

In breaking news, the MAGA majority of the Supreme Court led by Amy Coney Barrett in the Birthright Citizenship/14th Amendment case, just destroyed 100 years of precedent that allowed Federal trial court judges to issue nationwide injunctions to address the nationwide harm caused by a President’s abuse of power, declaring that only the Supreme Court can fashion nationwide relief. Michael Popok explains that to protect 14th Amendment birthright citizenship, lawyers in 3 states will have to move quickly to either certify a class action and/or get their cases declaring Trump’s Executive Order unconstitutional back to the US Supreme Court on an emergency basis, as tens of thousands of babies born in red states and thejr citizenship and federal funding hang in the balance.

The Trump Administration, continuing its assault on the Rule of Law, has just sued each and every of the 16 judges in the Maryland federal court system along with the Clerk, because the Chief Judge there has issued an administrate order providing that for 48 hours, Trump cannot send people outside of the country to avoid federal jurisdiction, until a federal judge has reviewed the habeas corpus petition.

Did Justice Sotomayor just outfox the Trump DOJ by sending out an “invitation” to a Massachusetts federal judge to find a way to circumvent a recent Supreme Court ruling to make sure that deportees obtain due process before being sent to countries like South Sudan or Libya? Michael Popok takes a close look at Sotomayor’s dissent, the next steps taken by Judge Murphy to tell the Trump Administration that the Court’s ruling doesn’t stop his other “remedial” orders, and Trump’s DOJ rushing to the Court and asking for a “clarification” because the Judge is being mean and “defiant.” For their buy 1 get 1 50% off deal, head to https://3DayBlinds.com/LEGALAF Subscribe: @LegalAFMTN Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

In a 6-3 decision that Justice Sotomayor calls an “abuse of power” by the Supreme Court which turns the nature of Due Process on its head, and rewards the Trump Administration’s flagrant violation of federal court orders, the Supreme Court just ruled that human beings without due process or even limited notice can be deported to dangerous countries they are not even from, like South Sudan and Libya. Michael Popok explains how the MAGA majority of the Court just rewarded Trump’s bad behavior.

The Federal Reserve and its Chairman Jay Powell, the only thing standing between the American People and economic ruin under the disastrous Trump presidency, has refused to obey Trump and ignore Trump’s policies, which have sent the economy into a tailspin marked by high inflation, low job creation, and almost non-existent economic growth. The Fed just decided to ignore Trump and not cut interest rates, as it observes the suffering of American consumers under Trump. Michael Popok puts on his Wall Street hat again to also examine a little covered comment, that Powell is also worried that Trump is “cooking the books” and undermining proper statistical reporting coming out of the Commerce Department ,which the Fed needs to set policy.

Insiders at ICE are coming out against the Trump Administration, reporting low morale and that they are being diverted away from going after criminal migrants for deportation, because Trump and Steven Miller have them focused instead on making 3,000 arrests a day. Michael Popok explains how even right-wing media is calling out Trump’s deranged policies, including that ICE is already $1 billion over budget, and they are making arrests in Home Depot and 7-11 parking lots instead of going after the really bad people.

The Senior Status Federal Judges are striking back and hard against the Trump Administration, issuing some of the most scathing rebukes from the bench and in opinions from their perch as judicial historians as well. Add to this growing list, Judge Young of the Federal Court in Massachusetts, who of the 400+ cases pending against the Trump Administration, just tried the FIRST trial related to Trump’s cut of millions of dollars in grant money issued by the National Institute of Health to the Black, Brown and LGBTQ+ communities, and declared that the decision to cut funding is the most “blatant” and “palpably” racist act by a Government he has ever seen in 40 years. Michael Popok reports on the trial and Judge Young’s ruling and the role of the Senior Status Federal Judges to protect our democracy.

The Trump Administration continues to poke the bear in Judge Xinis, this time filing a new motion telling her she has no jurisdiction to find them in contempt, because, wait for it, they finally brought ABREGO GARCIA back from El Salvador, not to her courtroom but to Tennessee on a manufactured indictment. Michael Popok explains how the Trump Administration is bringing ABREGO GARCIA back for their own purposes, which actually proves contempt, and explains what Judge Xinis will do next when it comes to Trump contempt charges.

Will a 9th Circuit appeals court put Governor Newsom back in charge of the California National Guard and refuse to accept the ruse of a Trump-declared “rebellion,” or will they rule for Trump and keep him in charge for many more months while they ponder the appeal. Michael Popok reports on today’s oral argument and posits that they will likely find that they have jurisdiction to provide oversight over Trump’s actions, but want the lower court to develop a more fulsome record before making an ultimate ruling, starting with a hearing in court on Friday before Judge Breyer.

In breaking news, Federal Judge Charles Breyer — finding the Trump Administration violated federal statutes dating to 1903 and the 10th Amendment of the Constitution — has ordered that Trump immediately return command and control over the California National Guard to Governor Newsom. Michael Popok examines the 36 page order issued moments ago and explains why the Court found that Trump’s actions were “illegal” and his position that first amendment expression is the same as a “rebellion” chilling, and why the order was stayed for a half a day to permit an appeal.
