Summary

Sid Rosenberg chats with powerhouse defense attorney Joseph Tacopina. They reflect on longtime friendships, career moments, and hilarious past incidents—like a dog gone missing from a luxury kennel, which Tacopina successfully resolved. Tacopina shares details of an intense visit to a U.S. Army base in Germany, working out with elite military leaders like General Donahue and Delta Force veterans. He also weighs in on the heroic actions of soldiers at Fort Stewart during a recent shooting and slams pro-Hamas activists, calling for the deportation of extremist Mahmoud Khalil. The conversation wraps up with Tacopina blasting NYC Mayor Eric Adams for dishonesty in a social media post, and Sid preparing for a secretive meeting with the mayor later that day.
