    Podcast Summary

    • President Trump Indicted for Potential Felony ChargesFor the first time, a U.S. president is indicted on potential felony charges, possibly related to business records and hush money payments to silence women.

      For the first time in U.S. history, a sitting president, Donald Trump, has been indicted by a New York grand jury on potential felony charges. The indictment, which could include up to 34 counts, is believed to involve the falsification of business records related to a hush money payment to Stormy Daniels. However, recent testimony from David Pecker, the former publisher of the National Enquirer, suggests that the indictment may be broader, potentially involving a campaign to silence women who alleged affairs with Trump. The grand jury process is secret, but leaks indicate that the indictment is for a felony, not a misdemeanor. The exact charges will be revealed when the indictment is unsealed. The case centers around payments made to cover up affairs and the use of non-disclosure agreements to silence women.

    • Manhattan DA investigation expands: Trump's role in 'catch and kill' scheme with Karen McDougalManhattan DA's investigation into Trump's hush money payments is broadening, focusing on his involvement in the 'catch and kill' program with Karen McDougal in 2016. This predates the Stormy Daniels case and could result in additional witnesses against Trump, potentially leading to an indictment and legal process.

      The investigation led by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg into former President Donald Trump's involvement in hush money payments is expanding beyond Michael Cohen's role. According to David Pecker's testimony, he coordinated with Trump to use the "catch and kill" program with Karen McDougal, a former Playboy Playmate, in 2016. This scheme, which involved paying McDougal for her silence about an alleged affair, predates the Stormy Daniels case and could provide additional witnesses to testify against Trump. The potential indictment of Trump would mark a significant development in the case, and he would be required to surrender to authorities and undergo the same legal process as any other defendant.

    • Trump to Follow Standard Criminal ProcessFormer President Trump faces felony charges related to Stormy Daniels, David Pecker, and a 'catch and kill' program. Allen Weisselberg, in Rikers Island, may cooperate with Manhattan DA.

      Former President Donald Trump will follow the same legal process as any other criminal defendant, including being fingerprinted, processed, and arraigned in a courtroom. He will likely be charged with felony counts related to Stormy Daniels, David Pecker, and the "catch and kill" program, and we may also see Karen McDougal's name mentioned in the indictment. Allen Weisselberg, the disgraced Trump Organization CFO, is currently in Rikers Island and has recently changed lawyers, choosing a firm that previously represented Matt Gaetz. This change in representation could signal a potential shift in cooperation with the Manhattan DA.

    • Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg's Investigations Against Trump and the Trump OrganizationManhattan DA Alvin Bragg is investigating former President Trump and the Trump Organization for potential financial misconduct, including tax evasion and hush money payments to Stormy Daniels. The indictment of a former president is unprecedented, and Allen Weisselberg, a key witness, is implicated in various fraud schemes.

      Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan District Attorney, is leading historic investigations against former President Donald Trump and the Trump Organization. Bragg has already secured a victory against the Trump Organization in a tax evasion case and is now focusing on Stormy Daniels and a broader "catch and kill" indictment. Allen Weisselberg, a key witness and longtime financial executive of the Trump Organization, is implicated in various fraud schemes and is believed to know about potential financial misconduct within the organization. The indictment of a former president is unprecedented, and while some are expressing shock, others are celebrating the potential accountability for Trump's past business dealings. Trump's history of questionable business practices, as observed by the speaker, should not come as a surprise to anyone. The Republican party put a corrupt businessman in the White House, and it's no shock that his cronies and henchmen created a kleptocracy. The indictment is a testament to the ongoing investigations and the pursuit of justice.

    • Trump's Indictment: A Potential Fundraiser?Trump's indictment, involving tax evasion, money laundering, cover-up, and election fraud allegations, could potentially lead to more fundraising opportunities for him, despite the potential sentence of up to 4 years per count.

      Donald Trump's behavior leading up to his indictment in Manhattan was not an attempt to evade justice, but rather an action that could potentially lead to more fundraising opportunities for him. The indictment, which is a felony, involves allegations of tax evasion, money laundering, cover-up, and election fraud related to payments made to Stormy Daniels. The potential sentence for each count is up to 4 years, but it's not mandatory. Some people are criticizing this as a low point in the US criminal justice system, but it's important to note that there have been questionable decisions made in the past, often against people of color. Despite losing the election by a significant margin, some believe Trump could still gain more votes due to the indictment, but this is unlikely. The Manhattan DA's office has successfully linked multiple crimes together, making it a felony indictment.

    • A historic day: Former President Trump indictedFormer President Trump becomes the first U.S. president in history to be indicted, marking the start of a potential lengthy legal process.

      History was made today as the Manhattan DA's office and Alvin Bragg indicted former President Donald Trump, ending the United States' 90,155-day streak without an indicted president. Trump is expected to be arraigned and surrender next week, followed by a makeshift press conference and release on his own recognizance. This marks the beginning of what could be a lengthy legal process.

    Trump SENTENCING Nears + Supreme Court BOMBSHELLS
    Ben Meiselas and Michael Popok are back for the weekend edition of the top-rated Legal AF podcast. On this episode, the anchors discuss and debate: (1) whether Judge Cannon will give another win to Trump in the Mar a Lago prosecution and throw out and “suppress” the incriminating testimony and evidence against him by his former attorney Evan Corcoran, and the impact on the prosecution’s case if she does; (2)  whether Judge Cannon in the Trump Mar a Lago criminal case will be persuaded TO GAG HIM by the dozens of threats against the FBI Trump and MAGA have made putting their lives in the line of fire; (3) why the Supreme Court did NOT BAIL OUT Steve Bannon and instead reaffirmed the validity of the Jan6 Committee and its subpoena powers and sent him to jail in early July to serve out his sentence for contempt of Congress; (4) why Judge Merchan in New York lifted a part of the Trump gag and whether that could impact his sentencing decisions on 7/11 for Trump’s 34 count felony conviction; (5) which is more impactful on our way of life, the Supreme Court’s throwing out the window one of the main charges against the leaders and most violent insurrectionists on Jan6, or the MAGA Justices’ wholesale destruction of the entire executive branch regulatory scheme, touching every aspect of our lives by throwing out a series of 40+ year precedent, with one stroke of the pen, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

    Trump, The Defendant

    Trump, The Defendant
    The legal and political worlds officially moved into uncharted waters when former President Donald Trump was arraigned on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.

    NPR's Carrie Johnson breaks down the case against Trump, and the difficult path to conviction for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

    And Peter Skinner, an attorney who worked alongside Bragg for several years in the Southern District of New York, talks about what Bragg is like as a prosecutor.
