Things went terribly for Trump and his DOJ lackey Lindsey Halligan during Former FBI Director Comey’s arraignment, as the Court sets a trial date of January 5, 2026! Pam Bondi, the pathetic excuse for an Attorney General removed all doubt about her competence with her testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, where the Epstein Coverup blew up in her face, again. The 9th Circuit hears oral argument about whether Trump can mobilize the national guard into Portland, as the 3 judges picked to hear the case are not what we expected. The Supreme Court MAGA 6 was back in action with 2 big oral arguments this week and which may hold the key to how they vote the rest of the new term. And Michael Popok and Karen Friedman Agnifilo make it make sense, on the rated Legal AF Podcast exclusively on the MeidasTouch Network.

A once proud US Attorneys’ Office that is both on fire and “leaks” at the same time. A resistance movement of former DOJ senior officials ban together to warn America about the Trump Administration. A current Attorney General who is being judged by history (and future impeachment managers and prosecutors) and is failing on national TV. A Supreme Court and its MAGA wing that woke up and remembered the First Amendment today. Federal judges fight back to protect Trump’s hostile take over of Blue States and possible use of the Insurrection Act. The Epstein Scandal roars back into view, as Trump says things out loud about the convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell that gets people starting to look up the 25th Amendment and its removal process again. And Trump’s attempts to pin the blame on the Democrats for the first government shut down in history where the President controls all 3 branches of government (!!), backfires spectacularly, including in the Courts. And Popok is at The Intersection to make it make sense.

In Breaking News, an openly defiant Trump Administration has met its match as an Oregon Trump-appointed Federal Judge just issued her second Emergency Temporary Restraining Order in 24 hours to prevent Trump from sending federalized national guards troops from California and around the country into Portland. Michael Popok is joined by California Attorney General Rob Bonta for an exclusive briefing about Judge Immergut’s latest emergency injunction ruling, as she fears that Trump is moving the nation from “Constitutional law” to “martial law.”

What does winning look like against Trump in the federal courts during the Shutdown Showdown with the Democrats? What does winning look like when you bring a motion to dismiss a criminal indictment brought by Trump’s corrupt DOJ for “vindictive prosecution”? What does winning look like if you are Former FBI Director James Comey and the FBI wants to “perp walk” you for next week’s arraignment? What does winning look like in cases filed about Trump’s using tax payer dollars to generate political propaganda on Government websites, emails and voicemails? What does winning look like when the Supreme Court’s new term opens this coming week? Ben and Popok define “winning” in all of these contexts on the top rated Legal AF Podcast exclusively on the Meidas Touch Network.

Federal judges are not puling punches and are now going after the Trump Administration and the Supreme Court in new devastating rulings; the Supreme Court may not be ready to hand Trump the keys to the Federal Reserve just yet; New orders stop the Trump Administration from dismantling foundations of our democracy, the First Amendment, and stop funding from being cut off to Blue States in case of emergencies. Popok and KFA take it all on and the latest edition of the top rated Legal AF podcast exclusively on the Meidas Touch Network.

In a stunning upset and breaking news, the Supreme Court couldn’t find 5 votes among the MAGA 6 to destroy the Federal Reserve’s independence just yet, and for now has rejected Trump’s efforts to remove Democratic-appointed Lisa Cook from the Fed Board of Governors without due process or proper reason, and will keep her in the job at least until the Court has oral argument and full briefing in January 2026 or beyond. Michael Popok explains how this ruling, although temporary, actually helps her case factually and legally.

A federal judge slams the Trump Administration for trying to crush the First Amendment rights of legally in the US students and professors, in the form of a love letter to America, the Constitution and as a response to a postcard he received from a Trump supporter. The ease by which James Comey will dismiss his indictment cannot be overstated, but that’s not the point of Trump’s pound of flesh strategy. Trump enablers like Kari Lake and the Administration are heading for contempt finding for trashing Voice of America as senior status judges fire back at the Trump Administration; new video has surfaced that help all Democrats with their “vindictive prosecution” motions to dismiss against Trump’s vengeful prosecutions; and new video has surfaced that prove that the MAGA 6 on the Supreme Court are a fraud. Join Michael Popok on the Intersection Podcast as he makes it make sense.

In breaking news, A Republican Federal Judge, used Trump enabler Kari Lake’s own words against her, to find her “dripping in indifference” and not only blocking her efforts to fire yet another 500 employees at Voice of America, but also observed that the Trump Administration’s conduct before him would support civil contempt proceedings if only the Plaintiff would ask him for it. Michael Popok unpacks Judge Lamberth’s order and his chastising of the Supreme Court while he is at it on his latest hot take.

Michael Popok of Legal AF briefs the audience on new reporting that the reason that real reason that Trump fired the Eastern District of Virginia US Attorney who refused to bring false charges against Trump’s political enemies was to allow him to quickly put in one of his lackeys and former defense lawyer Lindsey Halligan into the role, in order to indict former FBI Director James Comey before this Tuesday, when a statute of limitations for lying to congress runs.

Trump’s press secretary accidentally admits that Trump’s Border Czar took a $50,000 cash bribe; Trump overplays his hand and makes Kimmel a martyr for first amendment rights instead of Kirk; the Wall Street Journal tells a federal judge that Trump is too vulgar to be defamed, as Trump eyes a way to settle his defamation case with the WSJ by letting Murdoch buy part of Tik Tok; AG Pam Bondi takes a victory lap for a prosecution she was not responsible for as a jury convicts Trump’s would be assassin — a person so insane that he told the judge that he wanted resolve the prosecution by having Trump play a golf match to the death in front of half naked women; and Trump has a Global Meltdown at the UN, while admitting that he cannot control or defeat Putin.

FBI Director Kash Patel admits to covering up the Epstein child sex trafficking files to protect Trump in response to Democratic questioning; Trump throwing everything he has at news media and protected first amendment speech is already backfiring in Federal Courts and about Jimmy Kimmel; Trump sets a trap for the MAGA on the US Supreme Court that they are trying hard not to step in; the Trump DOJ’s reputation is so bad that grand jurors, jurors, and judges are throwing their cases out of court, DOJ leadership is quitting the Trump Administration in response to being ordered to falsely charge Trump’s political rivals.

A Trump appointed judge just declared that the Trump Administration itself violated laws against Child Trafficking by trying to secretly remove 600 refugee unaccompanied minors at 1 am Labor Day weekend and send them back on false representations to their home countries. As Michael Popok reports, Judge Kelly called Trump’s argument that they were merely “reunifying” children with their parents in a “pilot program” was a “house of cards” and untrue, which makes Judge Kelly the third judge after Judges Boasberg and Xinis, to call DOJ senior immigration attorney Drew Ensign a liar in open court.

To combat another terrible news cycle for Trump, he had his DOJ finally get around to filing their “emergency” appeal through the dreaded Shadow Docket to the Supreme Court to try for the 3rd time to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook from her 14-year tenured position so that Trump can gain control of the Fed’s rate-setting mechanism. Michael Popok takes a hard look at the new filing, including its reliance on Trump’s criminal immunity decision and its ignoring the Supreme Court’s decision in May that protects Lisa Cook from just such a firing.

If you thought embattled FBI Director Kash Patel’s grilling to within an inch of his life at the hands of the Senate Democrats was bad, it just got worse for him during his cross-examination by Rep Ted Lieu in the House about the Epstein Coverup Scandal. And a key piece of evidence used by Rep Lieu to grill Patel may look familiar— the Legal AF interview of journalist Michael Wolff and his observations about what he saw in Epstein’s apartment that the FBI should have grabbed during a search warrant execution. Michael Popok reports on his latest hot take.

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.

I have no love for Speaker Johnson or the behavior of his party. He did, however. say something that seems to make sense, i.e., why should we continue subsidizing health insurance companies when what's really needed to reduce costs are structural changes to the insurance industry/system? Is that just a bunch of baloney? Will Reps really work to effectuate that change or are they so beholden to insurance companies that it's just talk?
Re: the Harvard research grants judge, hallelujah, she recognized that there's no nexus between the health research grants and anti-semitic speech.
I hope the public understands that the President has an unlimited amount of funding to play his political games, while cities (like L.A. and Washington, D.C.), have limited budgets and numerous laws they must follow to address crime and homelessness. I, for one, do not support a President who abuses the law and norms to manipulate voters. He and his DOJ are the biggest law-breakers in the U.S. using "emergencies" that don't exist to bend the law.
How about explaining how the Reagan Library ended up with an Air Force One? I'd like to be prepared to address the issue of how that transfer will differ from the proposed Trump transfer. Also, how about further explaining what constitutes an "emergency" situation that gives the President additional powers. The only one I remember under Biden was Covid, a worldwide pandemic (and legitimately an emergency).
not a democracy if you can't boot your leader out today? 1 party 1 outcome
we don't want you commies in Canada.. Stay where you are. Your democracy is a joke. Thank your school system. MORONS!!!!!
I'm asking these question everywhere and would love an inforned answer (particularly from my Christian friends). What's going to happen to the human beings who are being put into these new deportation camps in our country and others? Will these humans ever get an opportunity to be heard? If in the U.S. illegally, how much time will they serve, i.e., will they ever be released? The questions go on and on re: the future of these humans.
I thought the Supreme Court ruled that all ICE detainees were to receive due process, but it seems like people are disappearing left and right Is there any evidence that the Trump Administration is complying with the due process ruling?
That's it! Time to Arrest Caligula!!!
Also, would you talk about the plans Krasnov has for creating a SOVEREIGN WEALTH FUND? It sounds like a way to hide any money he might steal from our government and our people.
Is it legal for Krasnov to be writing a letter to the Supreme Court?
Google Curtis YARVIN. This tech bro has a philosophy to turn the US into a techno state. These ideas have been very popular in the techbro world for some years. If you want to learn where musk and his minions got their anti-democratic ideas or if you are underestimating the depth and strength of the techbros takeover of America, research this fella.

Popok, I'd also be interested in your views on my previous question about tariffs. I appreciate your wisdom and these 2 questi ons have been on my mind, but I can't find much on them. Thanks for gifting me a modicum of sanity these days.
POPOK, With you boundless knowledge and experience, do you have any information about chronic understaffing in govt contributing to the air crash in DC?
❤️ you are THE BEST. thanks for keeping it real.
