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 in “real time” at this week’s most consequential developments at the intersection of law and politics.  This week, Ben and Popok discuss and analyze: 1. Sessions 2 and 3 of the Jan6 Committee Hearings, including Republican witnesses Bill Stepian, Greg Jacob, Jason Miller, and Judge Luttig. 2. Whether “Presidential pocket pardons” are a thing and constitutional. 3. Bannon’s efforts to exclude references to Jan6 from his upcoming trial. 4. Developments in the Proud Boy conspiracy prosecution and the revelation of a planning memo to “infiltrate” and “occupy” 7 other Capitol buildings. 5. Google agreeing to settle a landmark “pay inequity” class action case for $118mm based on their past practices of discriminating against women in the workplace. 6. The continued attack on class actions and other representative and collective action type cases by the Supreme Court who instead strengthen corporate mandatory arbitration agreements. And so much more.
