The Intersection with Michael Popok

Popok reports on Trump ally and novice US Attorney for DC, Jeannine Pirro (formerly on Fox), blowing her own criminal case and her efforts to keep it secret from the public that she is going after Fed Reserve Chair Jay Powell as a political retribution, based on her own comments to the media!  She also coined a strange new term, declaring that the Judge has "bathed" Fed Chair Powell in "immunity" !

Popok comments on new reporting from Murdoch's Wall Street Journal, that Trump blew off the advise of the Chair of his Joint Chiefs of Staff that Iran would definitely blockade the Strait of Hormuz the world's most important shipping lane in response to the War, instead relying on the novice inexperienced opinions of his golf buddy Steve Witkoff, Son in law, Jared Kushner, JD Vance, Marco Rubio and Pete Hegseth.

Popok follows the dirty money, as Tik Tok's new owners, all in bed  with Trump and his family in their crypto currency and./or Truth Social businesses, paid a 70% fee of $10 billion dollars to Trump's government that Trump may hope to use as a personal slush fund outside of Congress' control,  While at the very same time, Trump's son in law Jared Kushner is busy using his Middle East Special Envoy role to line his pockets with $5 billion in new investments from our middle eastern allies, some of which are tied to the Tik Tok sale.

The Honorable Michael J. Luttig, who served on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, joins Legal AF's Michael Popok and Lisa Graves for a special edition to discuss the extraordinary action of 175 federal and state judges speaking out about the U.S. Supreme Court's shadow docket. Judge Luttig and other judges submitted a brief to the Roberts Court and for the public to understand how "abusive" the high court's actions are in blocking lower court orders temporarily restraining Donald Trump's extreme and lawless policies and issuing emergency relief to Trump without even bothering to write legal opinions justifying their actions to block well-grounded injunctions.

In breaking news, Chief Judge Boesberg, citing to a "mountain of evidence" that Trump's DOJ is criminally investigating Fed Chair Jay Powell for improper purpose and no evidence of any crime being committed at all regarding the Fed Reserve building renovation cost overruns, has quashed the grand jury subpoenas and excoriated Trump and his DOJ in doing so.  Popok reports.

Trump has been faking being a "war time" president since he came back to power, and now has started a losing war with Iran to expand his abuse of civil rights and civil liberties at home.  Popok is joined by Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon on the House Judiciary Committees and Constitution Committee, and representing Pennsylvania's 5th District to brief our audience on now she and the Democrats are stopping Trump and MAGA in their tracks.

Popok briefs the Legal AF audience on shocking new developments in the last 48 hours in the Epstein cover up scandal, tying the child sex trafficking ring closer to Trump and his Administration, including reports that a victim claiming assault by Trump was paid off by Epstein; that a foreign cyber hacker broke into the Epstein files and was "disgusted" by what he saw in 2023 yet no prosecutions were started by Trump's DOJ; and MAGA leader James Comer throwing Trump and his DOJ under the bus for stopping the Epstein New Mexico Ranch investigation in its tracks in 2019.  This episode is sponsored by Ground News.

Popok reports on the Trump Administration refusing to honor the heroic men and women who gave their lives and limbs to protect the Capitol from the angry mob of Trump supporters on Jan 6, and burying the Congressional required commemorative plaque in a dark hallway not accessible to the pubic, in a final act of shameful disrespect to the men and women in blue.

Popok reports on the missing $63 million extorted by Trump from major media companies like ABC, CBS, Meta/Facebook and his buddy Musk's Twitter, for his "presidential library" which has gone missing, as Trump works a deal with Gov. DeSantis in Florida to steal a $200 million dollar parcel of land in downtown Miami for $10 dollars!

Popok reports on today's news that the new Ayatolla in Iran has launched an attack on all of the US Oil interests, starting with declaring that the Strait of Harmuz, through which 20 percent of world oil passes, is closed for business, as Iran tries to cause a global economic recession to bring Trump to his knees.  It's a bad sign for Trump's economy when after 600 million barrels of strategic reserve oil is released into the market, crude oil prices skyrocketed UP today, signaling that Iran is beating Trump at his own game.
