• Legal AF Full Episode 3/22/2025

  Ben Meiselas and Michael Popok head the top rated Legal AF podcast, and tonight discuss: Trump picking a fight he is doomed to lose all the way up to the US Supreme Court with one of the most revered judges of our lifetime -- Chief Judge Boesberg of the DC district court, over Trump's phony "wag the dog" declaration of war against Venezuela; Federal judges firing back with public statements and letter filings to shove back against Trump's attempts to abuse the Federal courts; a profile in cowardice, as a major Global law firm based in New York voted to sacrifice its hard earned reputation for ethics, honesty and good lawyering, on the alter of its greed, as it decided not to fight being blacklisted by Trump, but to give him $40 million in extorted legal services to make him go away, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

• DC Judge Puts the Screws in Trump on Key Military Issue

  In a scathing new order blocking Trump’s ban on transgender American troops, a DC Federal Judge has declared that the ban is “fueled by animus” and “dripping on pretext” and observes the “cruel irony” that those who valiantly serve to protect our freedoms are having theirs ripped away from them by Trump. Michael Popok explains the new order, and the automatic stay imposed, and what happens next up to the US Supreme Court.

• Judge Strikes Back at Trump’s Attacks… Contempt Warning!

  Chief Judge Boesberg of the DC District Court, far from being intimidated by Trump and his Administration calling him “corrupt” and a “lunatic” and calling for his removal or “impeachment,” is instead moving closer to finding the Trump Administration in contempt for continuing to deport Venezuelans to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act after he issued an injunction to block the planes. Michael Popok explains why the Judge found Trump’s submission “woefully deficient” and has ordered his Administration to “show cause” and explain why they are not in contempt of his order, as the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court intervenes to protect the Judge from the attacks.

• Trump Faces Major Setback as Appeals Court Shreds Him

  The 9th Circuit just dealt a set back to the Trump Administration, siding for now with Federal Judge Alsup who by injunction ordered Trump to rehire tens of thousands of federal workers today. But on the same day as his set back, Trump’s first federal judge opening is, where else? The “liberal-minded” 9th Circuit Court based in San Francisco. Michael Popok ties it all together with his reporting. Upgrade your sleep with Miracle Made!

• Trump Screws Himself as He Picks Fight with Wrong Judge

  Trump’s Press Secretary just “doxxed” a federal judge, attacking him by name, following Chief Justice Roberts effectively telling the Trump Administration to knock it off in a historic direct statement aimed at Trump, and Trump telling Fox that he didn’t believe Roberts was even talking about him. The Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt should resign immediately, as Michael Popok outlines.
