Legal AF by MeidasTouch

To paraphrase MAGA Sen. Kennedy, Trump’s economy is as “dead as fried chicken,” as the new job numbers hit today showing that Trump LOST 100,000 jobs in February alone, including in construction and factory workers, on top of 70,000 lost in December and January, and the financial markets tumble in the face of the Iranian War Trump started and its devastating impact on oil, gas and energy prices. P...

The Trump Administration and especially AG Pam Bondi, especially after Kristie Noem’s firing, are trying to prevent state bar regulators from taking away the law licenses of Trump lawyers, like Bondi, and have secretly published a new proposed rule that would allow the DOJ to investigate its OWN lawyers and sideline bar regulators from going after their licenses, perhaps indefinitely.

Trump’s DOJ just screwed up again, making it almost impossible for them to indict Former Director of the FBI James Comey based on an indictment obtained from a non-Senate confirmed, disgraced, and now resigned Lindsey Halligan, based on a new position they just took in the Mar-a-Lago case before Judge Cannon about Jack Smith’s indictment and final report against Trump. Popok also explains why Trum...

A battle is brewing between an angry Federal Judge in Philadelphia, the Third Circuit Court of appeals and the Trump Administration, that wants to deny that slavery existed in this country and white wash immutable facts that our founding fathers owned slaves and erase that fact from a tribute to George Washington’s slaves at a historic site in Philly dedicated to our nation’s founding.

In breaking news, Judge Xinis, noting that the DOJ does not understand fundamental and basic law school concepts about how back dated orders work, has blocked the Trump ICE squad from capturing Kilmar Abrego Garcia again or removing him to Africa as punishment for him winning in court, finding that they are by their own admission more than 6 years late in trying to disappear him out of the country...

It’s a sad commentary when the DOJ admitting in a court filing that they have “only” violated 56 court orders in one federal district just since December, is a GOOD week for the DOJ. But the real story, as Popok reports, is the reason that DOJ official Jordan Fox is using some smarmy apologetic tone in her letter to a NJ federal judge. It’s because she is a close friend of Trump’s former criminal...

Trump’s lawyers just made a major blunder, subjecting him to a deposition under oath about Jan6 and his role in leading the insurrection.
