    Trump gets HAMMERED HARD by Judges as Co-Defendants Flip
    Ben Meiselas and Michael Popok are back with a new episode of the weekend edition of LegalAF. On this episode, they discuss: bombshell developments in the Georgia Election Interference criminal case, with 2 of Trump’s lawyers -- Sidney Powell and Ken Chesebro -- and co-conspirators pleading guilty, turning states evidence and witnesses for the prosecution against Trump, to avoid trial; developments in the DC Election Interference criminal trial against Trump, with the judge issuing a gag order and then temporarily staying its enforcement, the Special Counsel’s scathing opposition paper filed to prevent Trump from dismissing his indictment; Trump’s failed efforts to avoid civil liability brought by people injured and killed by his actions on Jan6; a DC court of appeals allowing the DOJ to continue to use “obstruction of justice” and its 20 year sentence against Jan 6 insurrectionists; developments in the Mar a Lago Obstruction Criminal case against Trump; Week 3 in the NY Civil Fraud case against Trump, including his violating the gag order imposed there and threatened with jail, and devastating testimony in the court room, and much more from the intersection of law politics and justice.

    Trump utterly SCREWED by damning LEAK from his attorney

    Trump utterly SCREWED by damning LEAK from his attorney
    Ken Chesebro is the Georgia Trump co-conspirator and attorney we love the most so far. Because he keeps leaking damning information—like the Prosecutor’s evidence affidavit against him and the others, we hadn’t seen before. Michael Popok of Legal AF looks under the hood of Chesebro’s email search warrant fight with Fani Willis, and explains why he’s so helplessly wrong on the law.
