Summary

The top-rated weekly law and politics podcast, Legal AF, produced by MeidasTouch and anchored by MT founder and civil rights lawyer, Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and strategist, Michael Popok, is back for another hard-hitting, thought-provoking yet entertaining look at the most compelling developments at the intersection of law and politics. On this week’s real-time, filled-to-the-brim episode, Ben and Popok explore and explode: 1. A Michigan Federal judge throwing the book at Trump attorneys’ Sydney Powell, Lin Wood and others for bad faith and meritless conduct in challenging Biden’s win, including possibly pulling their law licenses. 2. The House January 6th Special Committee issuing demands, and soon subpoenas, to investigate Trump, his cabinet, and members of congress, including whether Trump was mentally-unfit. 3. The FCC’s $5mm fine (and criminal charges) against notorious “robo-callers” and Trump conspiracy theorists who used 1200 robocalls to interfere with mail in voting. 4. A Florida judge’s ruling to overrule Gov. DeSantis’ efforts to block mask use in public schools. 5. SCOTUS’ 6-3 decision to invalidate the current CDC eviction moratorium as improper rule-making without Congressional action. 6. SCOTUS’ 6-3 decision to block President Biden’s efforts to end Trump’s “stay in Mexico” policy for asylum-seekers, as “arbitrary and capricious” and, 7. Rudy Giuliani associate Igor Fruman’s decision to change his “not guilty” plea to “guilty” in the New York federal prosecution case against him related his fraudulent conduct concerning Ukraine, and Trump, and what it means for the two pending related Giuliani prosecutions. Special Easter Eggs Alert: Ben throws a ‘yellow” card at Popok, but also admits that he sometimes dreams of LegalAF and Popok.
