YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

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. On this episode, Ben and Popok analyze & discuss:

1. The 8th Session of the Jan6 Committee Hearing including the 187 minutes of Trump purposeful inaction and whether that constitutes a “dereliction of duty” as Commander and Chief, and just how close is the DOJ to a criminal prosecution of Trump.

2. DA Fani Willis’ own day in court over the Fulton County (Atlanta) Georgia Special Grand Jury investigation of Trump, Graham, Giuliani and others as she goes after the 16 “fake” electors and others, and what the presiding judge had to say about it all.

3. Giuliani’s failure to appear at a New York order to show cause hearing leading to him being ordered to testify before Willis’ special grand jury in early August.

4. The conviction of Steve Bannon on both counts of contempt of Congress, his upcoming sentencing and likely appeal, and what happens next.

5. Musk’s first loss in front of the Delaware Chancery Court in his efforts to wriggle out of buying Twitter, with the full trial now set to happen in just 90 days.

6. SCOTUS’ latest efforts to dismantle Biden’s change in immigration policy away from Trump’s rules, refusing to stay a Texas federal judge’s decision that Homeland Security Secretary’s memo prioritizing which illegal immigrants should be arrested and deported over others, is “arbitrary and capricious.”

7. Trump’s latest go-to lawyers, Alina Habba, and her own legal problems as her law firm and she are sued by a former Black paralegal based on an alleged hostile work environment led by Habba purportedly using the N-word as she sang loudly to rap music, and her using the N word against NYAG Leticia James around the office.
