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, and occasionally something out of pop culture. This week, Ben and Popok discuss and analyze:
1. The Texas Supreme Court giving permission to the State to open child abuse investigations against parents of transgender children.
2. A bad week for Trump as his $10,000 a day fine for contempt may continue unless he can come up with affidavits and evidence that he’s in compliance a New York state court judge’s order regarding the NY Attorney General civil fraud investigation into his business affairs, and a New York federal judge cast doubt on Trump’s efforts to dismiss the NYAG investigation outright.
3. A state court judge in Florida, appointed by DeSantis, rejecting the Governor’s racist redistricting maps as too racist and violative of Florida’s Constitution.
4. Developments with the Jan6 Committee and its efforts to subpoena McCarthy and Jim Jordan to appear as it wraps up its work in advance of the June hearings.
5. A federal judge rejecting a plea deal for an insurrectionist named “Baked Alaska” because he refused to admit his guilt.
And so much more.
