    On the top ranked Legal AF podcast, Michael Popok is joined with guest anchor, attorney and activist Rachel Cohen, sitting in for KFA, who is also joining the Legal AF YouTube Channel as a regular contributor. Popok and Rachel take on: the different forms that defiance against this Administration can take including taking personal responsibility to actively participate in our participatory democracy; how to weaponize and turn the tables on Trump's attempt to weaponize the DOJ and whitewash Jan6; a big win for women's rights coming out of the Wisconsin Supreme Court; federal judges figuring out how to hold Trump accountable with new class actions and injunctions since the Supreme Court's "nationwide injunction" ruling, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

  • Election Win Sticks the Dagger in Trump & MAGA in Wisconsin
    Jul 2 2025
    In stunning fashion, the 4-3 liberal majority of the Wisconsin Supreme Court just struck down a 176-year-old ban on abortion on the state books, pushed by MAGA to deny a woman her reproductive freedom, and declared that abortion is legal in Wisconsin and protected by more modern state statutes. Michael Popok explains how elected State Supreme Courts are on the front line to protect democracy, and Wisconsin provides the roadmap on how to resist at the state level.

  • Trump Nearly Blows It in Sham Lawsuit
    Jul 2 2025
    Almost missing the deadline, the Trump Administration has gotten around to appealing Judge Howell’s permanent injunction to stop Trump’s abuse of law firms — this time Perkins Code — and to block Trump from declaring them a “national security threat” as payback for some of their lawyers being involved in the Mueller investigation. Michael Popok looks at the new notice of appeal and lays out what happens next. Subscribe: @LegalAFMTN Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

  • Supreme Court Walks Right Into Instant Checkmate
    Jul 1 2025
    Moving at almost the speed of light and following Justice Sotomayor’s “direction”, public interest groups litigating to protect Birthright Citizenship have just hours after the Supreme Court ruled against them, filed a new motion for class action certification and for temporary injunction with a Maryland federal judge. Michael Popok explains how this is exactly what Justice Sotomayor called for in her dissent on Friday, and sets up a battle over the summer in the Supreme Court over whether Birthright Citizenship enshrined in the 14th Amendment survives.
