Summary

You come for the law and stay for the truth. The top-rated weekly US law and politics news analysis podcast -- LegalAF -- produced by Meidas Touch and anchored by MT founder and civil rights lawyer, Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and strategist, Michael Popok, is back for another hard-hitting, thought-provoking, but entertaining look in “real time” at this week’s cases. On this episode, Ben and Popok analyze: 1. The Wisconsin Rittenhouse trial verdict, and a critique of the prosecutor’s side of the case, from the indictment through closing argument leading to the verdict of acquittal. 2. The Georgia trial against the killers of Ahmaud Arbery as it moves into closing argument and jury deliberation next week. 3. InfoWars’ Alex Jones’ latest defamation case loss against the Sandy Hook families and survivors. 4. The FBI’s raid of Boebert’s campaign manager’s home as part of the DOJ’s investigation into improper hacking of Mesa, Colorado’s election equipment resulting in confidential information being leaked to Q-anon. 5. The New York Times reporting against Project Veritas and a New York State court’s attempt at “prior restraint” to prevent the paper from exercising its First Amendment right to publish. 6. The Bannon indictment and next steps to watch for. 7. The Trump appeal to the DC Circuit regarding the National Archives documents and the assertion of executive privilege.   8.
