Summary

Ben Meiselas and Michael Popok are back with a new episode of the weekend edition of the Legal AF podcast. On this episode, they debate/discuss: the impact of Stormy’s testimony on Trump’s criminal jury; the impact of and need for Michael Cohen’s testimony against Trump; how the prosecutors should handle the issue of former CFO now two time felon Allen Weisselberg and whether they should make him testify against Trump while he’s already in jail for perjury; the Special Counsel’s possible next steps to reassign Judge Cannon because of how she had mishandled the espionage and obstruction criminal case; the likelihood that the Supreme Court will intervene to save Trump coup plotter from prison time, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

It was a stormy, stormy, very stormy week at Donald Trump's criminal trial where Stormy Daniels took the stand.

0:12.0

Then there was of course the cross-examination by Donald Trump's

0:16.3

lawyer of Stormy Daniels which I think was wholly ineffective. What an impressive
