Summary

Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Michael Popok, host of MeidasTouch’s Legal AF podcast and YouTube channel, and founder of The Popok Firm, for a breakdown of the political earthquake shaking Washington as the Epstein files explode back into the spotlight. We dig into Trump’s desperate attempts to control the scandal while most GOP leaders now demand the full release of the files. We unpack the legal chaos surrounding Trump’s illegally appointed prosecutors, the GOP’s internal rebellion, the weaponization of the DOJ, and the Supreme Court’s role in enabling Trump’s power grabs. From the shutdown fallout to Trump’s lavish self-enrichment, we expose a presidency running out of control.
