Summary

On the top rated Legal AF Podcast, Ben and Popok expose the Trump Administration and its Department of Justice for continuing to shield an international child sex-trafficking ring—telling a federal judge not to appoint a special master, not to release the Epstein files, and not even to hear from the members of Congress who authored the Epstein Act. We break down Trump’s ongoing corruption spree, including a wave of pardons of repeat financial fraudsters, and how the Constitution is being weaponized to enable Trump’s worst abuse of power schemes. We also take you inside the federal courts and their hand to hand combat against the Trump Administration, where judges are issuing injunctions against ICE abuses and calling out unconstitutional conspiracies targeting First Amendment protest, civil rights, and voting protections. this and so much more on the Legal AF podcast exclusively on the Meidas Touch network.

0:00.0	A very busy legal week, which means a very comprehensive legal A.F. coming your way. We've got a lot to discuss.
0:08.2	You have the Department of Justice making a late night filing on Friday in one of the federal cases involving Epstein, the U.S. v. Elaine Maxwell case.
0:18.0	That's where Rokana and Thomas Massey, the Congress members behind the
0:21.5	discharge petition, requested a federal judge appoint an independent monitor or special master
0:27.2	to ensure the Epstein files are released. The Department of Justice filed its response, saying that
0:33.7	there are no grounds to appoint an independent monitor monitor that Massey and Kana do not have
0:39.2	standing and that no court in this country, this court or any court, can actually enforce
0:45.2	the Epstein Transparency Act. No one can do anything about it other than whatever the DOJ
0:50.7	decides it wants to do. We'll break down that horrific, horrific filing.
0:55.6	We should talk about the various pardons that Donald Trump tried to quietly get away with this
1:00.9	week, some of the biggest fraud stars, some of the fraudsters, not fraud stars, I guess.
1:07.1	No, fraud stars also.
1:08.8	Fraud stars, I guess that's a new genre right there.
1:13.6	You know, and also recidivist fraud stars, I guess that's what we'll call them right now.
1:19.0	Then let's go to Minneapolis in St. Paul where the Trump regime is invading. We'll talk about a order,
1:25.7	an injunction order based on some of the military tactics of this invasion
1:29.9	that are being blocked.
1:30.9	And let's talk about the Reagan appointed judge in Massachusetts, Judge Bill Young, his ruling
1:37.0	there involving a case involving Palestinian activists and students where he says that Trump
1:43.3	and his cabinet are just clearly violating the Constitution
1:46.2	in the most terrific way. The name Bill Young may sound familiar to you. That judge has written
