Anchored by MT founder and civil rights lawyer, Ben Meiselas and national trial lawyer and strategist, Michael Popok (back from his vacation), 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: Trump’s likely prosecution for violation of the Espionage Act and two federal statutes related to 11 categories of government documents he took with him to Mar a Lago and what it means for his future run for office; recent developments to supercharge the Manhattan DA’s prosecution of the Trump Organization and its long-time CFO with a trial set for October; Trump’s assertion of the 5th Amendment more than 400 times during Wednesday’s full-day NY Attorney General’s civil deposition and what it means for the civil case to be filed against him and his children; Trump’s long-time appraiser turning over 35,000 page of information to the NY Attorney General’s office this week to try to “purge” a contempt finding against it and what it means for the main civil investigative case against Trump; and the DOJ’s “fake elector” criminal investigation gains velocity as it grabs Rep. Scott Perry’s phone and subpoenas the records of Pennsylvania state legislators involved in the failed plot to overthrow the genuine electors of the state and hand the election to Trump, & so much more.
