Summary

Michael Popok and Karen Friedman Agnifilo are back on the top-rated Legal AF podcast and debating: a landmark order against DOGE and Musk forcing them to reveal themselves to the American People; another appellate court rules against Trump's attempt to rip birthright citizenship from the Constitution; a new order about DOGE's efforts to chloroform a federal aid agency founded by Congress; the Trump Administration's attempts to deny a NY federal judge jurisdiction by whisking a green card holder who expresses views the Administration doesn't like, to red state Louisiana; and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

0:00.0	Oh, it's Wednesday. And you know what that means on Midas Touch? It means legal A.F. Midweek.
0:09.3	By the time we get to Midweek now with Karen Freeman McNiflo and Michael Popock, I'm like half exhausted by what's going on in the courts.
0:16.3	But we bring the energy. We bring the vigor, we bring the insightfulness.
0:21.6	Hold Truths of Power at one place I know of on the dial.
0:25.6	It's called Legal A-F, and if you didn't know why we called it that five and a half years ago, now you know why.

1:21.6	to size without congressional oversight or public accountability. And Chris Cooper, the judge, has had enough.
1:29.5	And he's ruled for the first time
