Summary

Anchored by MT founder and civil rights lawyer, Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and strategist, Michael Popok, the top-rated news analysis podcast LegalAF x MeidasTouch is back for another hard-hitting look at how the wheels of justice turn in “real time” as they analyze and discuss this week’s most consequential developments at the intersection of law and politics. On this week’s “WTF” (Wednesday, Thursday & Friday) episode, the anchors discuss and analyze: The Jan6 Committee’s closing argument against Donald Trump and his criminal culpability including its decision to subpoena him for testimony (Thursday); SCOTUS rejecting Trump’s emergency appeal in his efforts to get the Mar-a-Lago (MAL) 100 classified documents back to the special master (Thursday); the NY Attorney General filing for an emergency injunction against Trump and the Trump Organization to stop their continued fraud (Thursday); a NY Federal judge ordering Trump to sit for deposition next week in E. Jean Carrol’s defamation and future civil rape case (Wednesday); the DOJ filing its appellate brief to the 11th Circuit looking to overturn all of Judge Cannon’s prior rulings interfering with its ongoing criminal investigation of Trump (Friday); and Alex Jones being hit with an almost $1 billion civil judgment by a Connecticut jury for calling the Sandy Hook mass murder of school children and educators a hoax, and profiting off the defamation by selling his products (Wednesday), and so much more.
