LIVE: Trump Trial ACCELERATES as Trump DETERIORATES | Legal AF
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 май 2024
- Ben Meiselas and Michael Popok are back with a new episode of the weekend edition of the top-rated Legal AF podcast. On this episode, they debate/discuss: whether the jury is ready to convict after just the first 2 weeks of the Trump NY criminal trial; the powerful impact of Judge Kaplan’s denial of Trump’s motion for new trial and to reduce the punitive damages in the E Jean Carroll sex assault, defamation and punitive damages trial; whether the Supreme Court can ever recover from a future decision that a criminal, coup plotting, rival assassination planning president can get away with it and enjoy immunity from criminal prosecution; whether Trump will be indicted eventually in Arizona for election interference, and who may be cooperating with the Arizona AG to make that happen, and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

Poor billionaire can't afford a coat. 😂
What's going on in Georgia?
Suppose the Supreme Court grants Trump some form of absolute immunity. In that case, the lawyers on this network will eventually need to address the potential "balance of power" problem between the co-equal branches of government.
@@michaelhernandez3041 …🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Yes, I can't believe this is really happening in America. Other countries are saying this is our chance to attack them now. As one, we have the X potus, and I hate to even mention his name, but he is serious. Why do you think he took the documents home .He's really no different than Putin if he gets a chance. COME ON PEOPLE VOTE Blue and then get rid of the justices who doesn't take the oth seriously.
The Supreme Court Justices should be asked directly, "If the former or current president has such immunity for his official acts what's stopping him from dissolving your Court"?
Has threaten arrest for judges
This is what I've been saying.... If Donvonshitshispants wins the election, the SC will no longer be needed... What does a DICTATOR need with a SC?? Hmmm🤔🤔🤔🎯🎯
Our votes could give Biden the congressmen he needs to put real people in that court among all those shysters.
They should be asked how he bought them 😮
the ones that help him should be jailed right along with him. ANY JUDGE
Being a U.S. Army veteran, I am disgusted with the idiocy of MAGA's conduct. And to all voters who believe in the Constitution, stop wringing your hands with worries and fear. VOTE.
Time in service: July 1973 to June 1981.
USAF Veteran here and I wholeheartedly concur.
Thank you for your service
Thank you ALL Veterans and Currently Active Military. 💙Vote💙
USMC vet here. Yeah bro folks have lost their damn minds
You served right after some of my High School friends did not come back from Vietnam. I appreciate your service
As an American, I AM INFURIATED BY THE LAWYER FOR TRUMP, and the BOUGHT AND SOLD SUPREME COURT!
As you should be. That has to be the most despicable thing I've ever heard argued in our highest court.
I too am apauled that our justices in our highest courts could be bought and paid for by such a sleeve of male humanity.
I'm with you on that one!
I am too.
Me too, and, since trump bought the three new Supreme Court justices, we can assume he also bought the House, since they have no accomplishments. Thankful that Republican voters will vote across the aisle in Nov.
The corrupt Justices who lied under oath should be charged with perjury and their decisions overturned!!!
YES!!
And Susan Collins of Maine should resign because she runs as a pro choice candidate and then confirms the judges who are put up by the far right every time. .
Agreed
Please just lock him!!!!
Lock him up!!!!!
Barr should be in jail, ASAP!
Yes he should! He helped this moran stay in office 😡😡😡
I think he has changed his tune and is minimizing Trump's actions because he is afraid he may be investigated.
Sickening guy😮 then he laughs about it disgusting I hope he gets investigated if democrats get the House of Representatives and blue Senate I am sure he knows that already that’s why he was talking about President Joe Biden 😮
Here Hear ‼️
So does Don the Con lock him up...
I'm from Kentucky and the harm most of our representatives have and are doing is shameful. The damage that Mitch McConnell has done to the whole nation is sickening.
If McConnell had impeached and convicted it would be past stress
Not to mention slamming Amy coma Barret through 2 weeks before an election..
Yes, the next President might get to pick a SCOTUS justice or two IF the Republicans don’t have the majority in the Senate to deny him that right as McConnell did to Obama. So blatantly unconstitutional and WRONG. 😡 Vote Blue, at all levels of government!
Did you all not know the representatives you were voting for time and time again?
Agreed 100% He is responsible for this nightmare
He must NEVER be President AGAIN!
Who is "SLEEPY" now then! Not "Joe" anyway!
I agree, 100%!!
The US and the world doesn't need a criminal for a leader
@@wrafl precisely 👍
So you love how our country is doing under Biden you must love all the billions given to other countries, dope in white house, our economy sucks. What a idiot
Time to end lifetime appointments and start investigating SCOTUS financial and political corruption. VOTE Democrat and demand action
We already know SCOTUS is corrupt! They know what they are doing. Here is the problem… They don’t care! They want donald the criminal trump back in office! And they will do anything to help him
Maybe that’s what they’re ultimately afraid of? A strong Democrat party would mean big trouble for them.
@@katrinabillings7011
Would fascist dictator Trump not abolish the Supreme Court as well..?
This is why Democrats have to stop bringing knives to gun fights. I'm an Independent, and I just hope when President Biden gets re-elected he spends the first two years adding 10 more progressive Supreme Court judges. The Constitution puts no limit on how many justices there can be. Let's make it 19 and straighten this mess out.
There were as many as 33 at one point i believe. If we had more justices, maybe some of these cases wouldn’t take years and years to decide.
The president assign's them. Seems to US., The president can and should remove them. Their Unethical.
Me too. The best person no matter the affiliation. I like Bernie.
@phylis3917 a vote for anyone other than Biden is a vote of 1 less for Biden..if 1 million people are led to vote for 3rd party candidates then tRump has a much better chance to win with Biden having 1million less votes..please do not vote 3rd party anybody...🗳💙💙💙💙🗳🗳🗳💙💙💙💙🗳
I hope he appoints you! Wrath, The Dragon.
If Trump thinks he has immunity to assinate then that means Biden could do the same - Maybe he should think about that!
Including supreme court justices
The second SCOTUS gives Trump "POTUS immunity" Biden will send Seal Team 6 to Trump, MTG and the rest of the seditious GOP and MAGAts -- thanks for opening door, Trump!!!
There's More To This Than We Know. I know 2 Weeks Ago Biden Held An Emergency Meeting With Top Staff And Military..
This Week, President Biden Is Now Walking With Secret Service and Administration Staff To Escort Him To The Helicopter Which Is Now Closer To The White House..
You Know That The Assassination Attempts May Be In Play...I Hope Not.
God Bless Our President And His Safety!
Probably why they’re delaying making this decision 😒
Vote blue down the ballot in ‘24. 💙💪🌊🌊🌊
Biden is too good of a man to take someone out because of politics. But he can deport him to Russia and just leave him in the middle of Moscow Square... mjt too
Trump has to lose for the sanity and future of America.
Save America! Vote Democrat!
This country is in so much trouble. There was a white supremacist march through Charleston WV today. I don't even have many friends and one of my closest for nearly 30 yrs has apparently fallen down the rabbit hole of right-wing conspiracy. He's not MAGA, but he's lost his mind and can't tell what's real or insane nonsense anymore. I'm so worried about the future and the lack of action to stop the craziness. I'm angry and scared.
The craziest thing is my friend is effing Indian American and is joking that the white supremacists are actually the FBI. I fucking hate Rupert Murdoch and the GOP for what they've done. And I hate Democrats for standing by and not taking bold action to stop it.
Often people believe what they want to believe. 🤷🏻♀️
So sorry. Scary times.
Right wing conspiracy is right wing conspiracy.Right wing conspiracy is MAGA. MAGA is MAGA. Parts is parts. I recommend an intervention. Your friend is legally delusional.
I lost my friend because of Donald Trump and MAGA.
I am sick that there are judges who would consider altering law and logic for that bastard
Exactly‼️😤⚖️💥
The Supreme Court should be in jail.
It is horrendous to hear what is going on at the USA Supreme Court at the moment. One can hardly believe your ears hearing this ...!!!
Disgusted with the supreme court they are not for law but to help Trump. They should be held accountable and be removed from their position.
Most of them should be impeached .. They are criminals .. Thomas should be arrested from the bench
That is prejudicing the decision and Unethical and deliberate!
Anybody on the supremeD court who gets paid from outside the System of government - should be permanently expelled from serving as a supreme being in this country.
He's making a mockery of our justice system
Simply knows what he can get away with. Desperation.
Has made is a better statement. If he was Obama or Clinton he'd be sitting in prison along with anyone that has colloberated with these crimes and that includes The wife of a sitting Unsupreme Court Justice.
He and his evil assistants have done a lot to make the Justice system at all levels in his image and likeness. Very, very devious and dangerous creatures.
Presidential immunity...there are no words to describe how sick and insane that concept is!!
He should’ve been jailed after the Mueller Report.
Trump won’t stop being Trump until you stop him through the legal system, if any judge ever finds their balls.
Dig deeper.
Trump better be careful about what he say. Someone may execute him.
What do they have to lose. That's the question.
And vote him and his MAGA republicans out of office
Even when we do get a fair and law loving judge we still can't hold him accountable because the Supreme Court is bought and paid for.
Someone tell SOCTUS NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW ! There should be no debate about this.
SCOTUS needs to stop being beholden to the naked emperor!
Thomas believes HE is above the law
Should the courts give limited Presidential immunity, then the gloves come off and Joe Biden must do what needs to be done!
Put Trump in jail
Lets not forget that accepting a pardon is an admission of guilt.
In November, vote like your life depends on it because it does!
Vote BLUE 💙🇺🇸
Yes my vote 🙏🏽💙🇺🇸
I'm curious if Trump's found guilty and goes to prison who's the Republican nominee going to be?
I thought it was said Trump is now just a Citizen.
Why isn't he treated like everyone else ?.
He should be called " Mr. Trump"...he is not our President. We have only one, and now that is Biden
Thank you...I totally agree!
Let’s get a Democratic Senate and House an impeach Thomas, and Alito on their conduct.
They will in 2025.
Time for Biden to pack the damn court with honest judges. Dems grow a spine. And stop worrying about how they look. Times way past that.
I've worked in corporate America for 40 years. Every office I have ever worked in has been as cold as a meat locker. Put some longjohns over that diaper, Donald.
Not a visual I ever needed... thanks?
Hehe good one!
I think he come in with some trump branded jammies. Then sell em to his base.
Can you imagine? 😂😂😂😂
@@bokononx4606me neither, but is 🤣🤣🤣
When is Ginni Thomas going to get Indicted?
When they start jailing beached whales.
@@dangardiner2011Good One !
Brilliant! I think this has been the most thorough and informative Legal AF legal analysts yet!!
Thank you Ben Meiselas and Michael Popak!
Take all the traitors into custody NOW!
Why do we need education, skills, qualifications & experience, for all jobs, but you can have none of these & be a Reality Show Personality & Be the President???? This is nuts.
If ur Trump and have maga fans u can do anything. Karma is catching up.
Education is being hijacked by social media...
Why do most people retire from jobs in their 60’s but we have politicians making decisions for us in their 80’s and 90’s? We need term limits and age limits across the board.
Yep Def should be term limits for all elected & appointed officials .
Just maybe they might start being actually concerned with doing something & leaving a lasting legacy.
Not just tow a party or institutional line
you know that education and experience help seeing true scams and he's show was helping him find those who would be good at scams and had little moral backbone doing them.
Since everything is unprecedent now a days with Trump. Let’s do unprecedented impeachment of Supreme Court judges.
Get in first. Then do it
Impeach, try, remove Thomas, Comey-Barrett, Gorsuch & Kavanaugh!,
Good idea 💡 👍
Just WOW! It's getting crazier and crazier. Please make it stop. Vote Blue
If I were a Supreme Court Justice, I would be very offended by the Sauer arguments, and by his assumption that I could be made to believe such ridiculous nonsense. And by the way, what a horrible voice for an attorney.
They are only thinking of their own private income, not the law or the constitution.
Did any justice call out his distinction between official and personal acts? Didn't hear it in audio clips. Should be between acts of president's duties and personal ones, b/c ordering crimes for personal benefit on White House stationery makes them official.
If this was President Biden or any former President they would be trying to have them HUNG!!
WE MUST VOTE BLUE 💙💙💙💙💙. Our lives depend on it💙💙💙.
Two months. Upside down on a tree. Just like mussolini.
So does Bidens
@@OliveD-Martini Yes, the Bidens also vote blue. :-))
I don’t understand this country anymore. The supreme court has too much power without consequences.
The Supreme Court DOES NOT WRITE LAWS! That is the limitation of their power as they are only there to interpret the law, not write it!
@@quincyjones6382
Well ok. I know that. However, how did they “interpret “the law that was in place when they overturned Roe vs Wade? To me, they’re not interpreting anything but finding a way to give immunity to a person who created an insurrection, which under the 14th amendment was very clear. Yet they ignored that.
Great discussion as always, Ben and Popok! So glad to have a sane discussion that calls out the absolute insanity and persistent threat to our democracy that people have become desensitized to. Keep calling it out!!
I don’t like the direction this Supreme Court is looking at.
the last 3 that Trump appointed, the worst human in America, those 3 sold their souls to the devil (Trump) to get appointed. Abolish the Supreme Court!! We no longer have to send info by Pony Express in America, we can all vote by computers now, we need no representatives to waste billiions of our tax dollars or 9 individual people who are tooooo bribeable, to decide major legal issues for 330 million of us, we can decide ourselves now.
What a sad day for the Supreme Court. I morn for my country. These selfish self serving judges need to go.
You should mourn your shameful lack of education and inability to spell words! 🤦🏼♂️🙄
There is no justice in the capitalist courts
They are part of Project 2025
Michael Popok always look forward to listening to your updates every evening here in Australia.
Thank you for listening, Australia 🇦🇺
His lawyer in the immunity case is an absolute nut case.
Seven more states at least need to do that!! He should have never been allowed to be put on the Colorado Ballot!!
This is the corrupted showing the world just try this moron over the USA system what a shame put him in jail where he belongs as a criminal, if a regular citizen does what this criminal is doing now whole be in jail where is the law and order that the government is very proud of it?
Mitch McConnell & the GOP have much to answer for.
Had they not squibbed their constitutional duty & found trump guilty when impeached, we wouldn't be where we are
end trump and forbit him to run. vote blue🌊🫂💙🙋
It is shocking that he has not seen bars. The world is laughing at U.S..
Yes from Canada!
💯 they really are laughing at America
Sorry i didn't know you could hear me...😉
After watching this episode? Not me. (UK) I'm shaking my head in disbelief at the US. I'm hoping Michael & Ben are wrong about the supreme court, but I'm terrified that they are right. What happens in the US usually affects the UK fairly fast (the UK is sometimes referred to as the 51st state for a reason). Scary days.
I know what you mean, but I think the world is more afraid than amused.
Thank God for the Meidas Touch. You Rock !!!!! People wake up. Listen to the true lawyers here shining the light of truth.
End the criminality of this monster.
The disgraceful 45th has no idea how low the temperature goes in a Federal Jail 😮😮😮😮
Bernie Sanders can send him a pair of mittens.
He can have his jackets lined and have 7 orange fleeced prison jackets...
Maybe the cold air will freeze the evil out of him.
Trump will be surprised by ....... one pillow, one blanket, no cheeseburgers, and no diet cokes. Life will be hard for the orange lump.
Meidas is doing a great job of reporting on the trial. Greetings from the UK. Popcorn at the ready. Keep up the good work with incisive analysis, clarity and a dash of humour.
Thank you, UK! We appreciate your caring!
So great to have Popok's extensive real-world legal experience
Donald Trump IMMUNITY works both ways which means Biden can do the same and you can't say a DAMN word!!!!
If only
It's possible.🤔
Oh yes, if Biden wins the election this year, he would have the same immunity that Trump demands he should enjoy.. We must vote blue and create a massive blue wave. Let’s do it.
Biden IS the only one who can stop him, now. We ONLY have, at this point, 1 1/2 branches of Government at this time. One whole branch is ZERO 0 - OUT TO LUNCH!
I was wondering whether Joe could fire all those corrupt SC ‘justices’ seeing as they are ready to rewrite the framers constitution to benefit future dictators! 🫨
I think gag order decision is delayed due to Secret Service having to make sure they have enough things for jail - nappies, hair dye and glue and orange face makeup!
I heard they have a cell ready for trump 😅
@@elizabethpedano9564if only
At first, I wondered how tRump would receive his professional daily hair placement.
Then, on second thought who but tRump would create that spaghetti pile?
@@raymondbohn2852🤭🤭🤗🤗🤣🤣🤣😭😭😜😜😜💯💯💯
Diapers or Depends
Thank you! Keep telling it like it is. Stay safe.
Michael POPOK you a doing a great job. You are giving good and relevant information to the public .
If Trumps assertions that a President can kill his political rival, why not have Biden put Trump out of our misery. FormerGOP, now Independent.
Yes I agree, especially after Barr said I’ll still vote for Trump who tried an insurrection and will ripped up the constitution . Barr should be indicted now .
STILL waiting for ANYONE, I mean ANYONE, to bring this up…
Still waiting.
Here, here! What's to stop Biden from putting tRump in jail while his trials are going on? Take him off the election road. Force his big mouth shut, finally. And what's to stop Biden from dismissing all Supreme Court justices and appointing new people who will be more impartial and fair in their decisions? I think Biden would find it beneath his mindset to appoint people so blatantly biased FOR himself. What do you think?
They killed Kennedy but no body will hurt this creep.
Would be nice however us sane ppl have morals and ethics that would stop us from acting like the MAGATS!!!! VOTE BLUE AMERICA AND SAVE DEMOCRACY AND FREEDOMS... BIDEN/HARRIS 2O24. TRUMP 20-24 YEARS IN RIKERS!!!💙🇵🇷💙💙💙🇵🇷💙💙🇵🇷
Trump should’ve been indicted in AZ !
Has now. Saturday.
I think the reason he is not yet idicted is that the immunity case before the Supreme Court would prevent the case from going forward. Now it can go forward and will be easy to add Trump later.
AZ is hoping to " flip" a few of those collobetators. Don't forget Wisconsin a d Michagin are going down the same path as AZ.
Sad that it is taking so long. I am sure at sone point The Mainstream Media and Courts will come to Trump's resque by claiming " it is to close to the Elections, let the people decide". That is coming soon.
@@margaretsmith9637
Hi Margaret!! I thought since these are state charges, it doesn't effect Arizona being able to still charge these defendants, including Trump, regardless of what the SCOTUS returns on these ridiculous immunity pleas by his lawyers. Am I misinformed?
Here in the UK Magna Carta in 12.15 established not even the monarchy is above the law. I cannot begin to comprehend how in the 21stC it is even being considered that a US president can be above the law. The US is a country I have long admired, this really needs to be sorted and quashed with urgency.
Please!!!!! Supreme Court, if you are going to make our president a king, do it while Biden is still in office!
😂😅 I wish...
All I can do is VOTE BLUE❤
Love Meidas Touch you all are phenomenal!!! I’m so addicted to you guys!!
💙💙💙💙
ME TOO!
I agree, i watch all day long. And some other contributors to i also like glenn from justice matters. I wish glenn would join forces with MTN then id never have to switch channels 😁☺
Thank you Ben and Michael and MeidasTouch Network for fighting for our democracy in real time. VOTE BLUE
Yes!
As a UK listener: Concern about Trump spills far over US borders, as you well know. That one has no right to exercise a vote induces a feeling of helplessness, in addition to anxiety regarding the next presidency - anxiety which is widespread in all the cultural circles that I know of, encompassing civil servants, medical doctors, academics, indeed, pretty much anyone with a university degree. I listen to all of your broadcasts. What you offer is absolutely outstanding, a model of intelligence and judiciousness. We used to look to the BBC for such coverage, decades ago, before successive Conservative governments drew its teeth. My thanks for the most penetrating and right-minded information and analysis that I have stumbled across on RUclips.
Well said, bravo! I certainly wish that you could vote in our elections!
Thank you for your input!
Some Americans are not total oafs. The Meidas Touch crew are some of the best of the best and they really are a beacon of truth and reason in these dark days.

Amen! Bring back the Constitution party! Dispand the Republican party. Same for the Libertarians and the Green party. All candidates should run as independents.
That's deep!
@@stacyfrederick9183have you read up on the Constitution party? It is THE SAME as MAGA just smarter
We must address the Dictatorial Supreme Court.
I am not very hopeful about the decisions that will come out of this supreme court. It's time to expand the court, install term limits, change the nomination process, and put enforceable ethics standards in place. The founders did not forsee a court as partisan and feckless as this one.
You probably know that over 76% of Democrats want a change in the Supreme Court
This is critical
Charlie
This is a what a partial implementation of Project 2025 look like. Wait until you see the full implementation of it.
One thing we all found out was there is an awfully lot of repairing to be done to our government laws and rules !
I think they should be be put in place by voters not appointed. Definitely need term limits of 4 years at a time. State supreme justices are voted on by people.
During the 'presidential immunity' hearing, one of the Liberal justices should have asked: "Sometimes Supreme Court justices have to rule against presidents. If a president came to view the justices on this court as political enemies, could he have us killed with full immunity? Would that also be part of his official duties?"
Often, conservatives only recognise the effects of their policies when THEY are personally affected. If the Trump lawyer had argued that assassination of a Supreme Court justice was a possibility (as he was almost bound to do based on his previous arguments), it might have knocked some sense into at least John Roberts.
For my part, I don't think that this question is purely theoretical. Trump wants to be a dictator/monarch. Currently, the Supreme Court justices are the only group of people in the government with quasi-monarchical absolute power - in other words, they are his COMPETITION. Also, Trump is profoundly vindictive - his past is littered with people who were 99% loyal to him, but who were nonetheless discarded and destroyed for their perceived 1% disloyalty. Even the current right-wing Supreme Court has ruled against him occasionally, and just one adverse ruling is enough for them to make Trump's enemies list. If he ever got re-elected, I do not believe that he would let the Supreme Court escape his jealousy and vengeance.
The conservative justices are playing with fire. If they are arrogant enough to consign the country to the flames, Trump will burn them too.
No thinking person could possibly vote for him!
If I have to stand in line without any water all my feet for 8 hours! I'm voting!
What will they do to us if we hand out water to voters? I just want to break the law😂
Vote by mail!
I will bring you water!!
GREAT ATTITUDE 👍👏👏👏👏💙💙💙💙
Now us Democracy lovers can yell back at MAGA... See.. He's the one with "ELECTION INTERFERENCE"... He did it in 2016 and he tried again in 2020!!! SMH... VOTE BLUE!!
And using those who stormed the peoples’ house for HIS benefit. They were played. Think many catching on. Look how thing have flipped. The eclipse 🔮
I said the same, he's been cheating on everything in his life.
They do not care! MAGA people KNOW that Trump is a frauster, rapist, liar, traitor, …. The ends justify the means! That is how they think!
Hi guys! Love when you're on together! 💙💙💙🇺🇸💙💙💙
Has anyone checked on the nurse juror number 2 after she had to be dismissed from the jury after fox news outed her to see if shes still ok???
Now i know why trump didnt host correspondence dinner. It wasn't about HIM!! He doesn't have capacity to honor deserving people
How can a Supreme Court Justice accept a motor home bus from Donald Trump and then be able to be one of the people who decides his consequences in a court case?
It wasn't from Trump.
… wait… did he take John Oliver’s motor home???!?!?!???
It wouldn'tsurprise me to find it happened, but was the bus granted to C Thomas or to a different Justice fom Trump? I sure have lost ALL faith in the SCOTUS. They aren't non political , they are now just the executive board of Congress, owned by the wealthiest of the political contributors.
BOOM................💥
It was Leonard Leo, using - motor home Harlan Crow but it could've been anybody HERITAGE FOUNDATION etc... useful - like Trump. They are blending together while they attempt to overturn DEMOCRACY.
Is there no way to get rid of justices in the Supreme court ?
Vote BLUE for a start...we need to take back the HOUSE.
Michael and Ben,
My family, friends and I address you both by first name as we all follow your podcasts very closely and feel that your "shows" reveal the real truth.
We are all Canadians but, you should be aware that we are very interested and really appreciate your analysis. Personally, before I discovered your shows I had very little knowledge of American law. Currently I feel that you both have educated me in American law.
Please keep up these incredibly interesting pocasts and thank you both for your hard work.
We all thank you Canada!
I'm a Kiwi and as an outsider I am amazed by the ignorance of the people Republican voters elect.
I appreciate opinions from other countries.Some of the people in the US don't realize they are on the wrong side of this trump circus. I pray they can see it through your eyes
Now just think, it seems to give licence to some Canadians to do same almost every single time. Consider yourselves LUCKY you're so far away in thus respect🇨🇦🇿🇦
I'm an American and as an outsider (Progressive Democrat) to MAGA world, please believe that I'm shocked and appalled as well. There's something wildly amiss in that vast expanse between our 2 coasts. The level of aggrievement, intolerance and willful, boastful entitlement is astounding. Basically, who the hell do these idiots think they are?
As a veteran, taking an oath to defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. I’m sure a lot of us are regretting not being able to do that.
I am. USMC veteran
I am Veteran too and ask myself " Why does ( President) even need to take The Oath of Office if he or she doesn't have to adhear to any of it?" If the Unsupreme Court allows Trump to skate on the immunity issue, why even have them take the Oath of Office?
Smells like a enabling attempt to delay for the excuse that it is to close to the Elections.
Fixing the Supreme Court should mean restructuring the court. There is a need to make it less and less political.
I would love to see Glenn K. and M. Popok host a informative segment of the Maidas Touch!! Please let it happen.
OMG, yes, I've followed Glenn for 3 yrs. He is no nonsense on everything trump. His legal knowlege is what kept me believing that we would one day see trump in a criminal courtroom, because "Justice Matters!"
Trump needs to recuse himself from this election.
Dream on😅
Tyrant rump should withdraw from the election
You can only do that if you have class, honesty and integrity.
From ALL elections.
He'd have to have some Pride and integrity. That he has never had his entire life.
Something has to be done with this court. HOW are they running with no ethics, no accountability, self policing ? What can WE THE PEOPLE put the light on this corruption, that is overcoming everything in our constitution? Thank you for all you do, Ben and Michael!
Project 2025. This will be everywhere if a Republican gets back into office.
Whatever type of immunity the Supreme Court wants to add to the presidency let me tell you, President Biden is there now and he can stay there if there's immunity of any kind so don't worry about Trump getting the presidency again. President Biden doesn't even need to leave!!🎉
I'm hoping someone will organize a walk on Washington to show our outrage with this Supreme Court!!
Cant see twump going to prison. 'Supreme court' is in his pocket. He should be sent to Federal prison for the rest of his disgusting life.
how many appeals,false claims of lawyer ''whatever''violations of court orders going on and on stopping the trial to deal with the side issues,ie [ Fani Willis]trump will die of old age before prison

Watching from Canada. What you as Americans must do, is vote as if your life depended on it. We the people must vote blue and give Trump a decisive loss, so that it's not even close.
I agree. Our lives do depend upon it.
.....and we Canadians MUST go RED or WE'LL have the SAME problem with Pierre Poilievre. Ford in Ontario is bad enough! Canadians must stop "ANYONE BUT TRUDEAU". As the saying goes, "the lesser of 2 evils", I'd prefer Orange NDP, but THAT'S never going to happen.
very true, & the rest of the freedom loving world😢? 💪💪🌊🌊🌊🌊💙💙💙🇨🇦
We the people have to expand the Supreme Court !!
January 6th committee hearings need to be re-aired!!!!
Arizona could be the beginning of an avalanche.
Stay tuned 😊
I'm tuned in for the rest of his fraud to be uncovered 🎉
👍🏿
Popok. You are an amazing communicator. Smart. Storyteller. Colloquial. Concise. Funny. Knows a good narrative you see one.
I suggest a Popok appointment to the SC when/if Thomas waddles off this mortal coil.
Thank you, Popok! 🥰
Its obvious that this Supreme court can no longer be allowed to continue without a reform. Reform them now, or wait for a crowd with pitchforks to do it later.
If they talk about the facts, they have to admit they supported the insurrection.
I'm about to watch MSNBCBwhere I'll see President Joee Biden take the podium at the WH Corresponsents' Dinner.☮️💜 everyone and have an outstanding night. Thamk you, Ben Meiselas, for all your hard work and presentations....as well as Michael Popok and everyone ELSE on MTN. You are ALL very special to the nation.
Not only your nation. Mine too.
WHOA…the prosecution - solving the big picture -setting the stage - brilliantly explained Ben & Michael - thank you -
Much love to Ben, Popok, Salty, and the rest of the MTN team! Proud to be part of the Meidas Mighty!!
BEN. IS ON POINT WITH HIS EVALUATION ON THE JUDGE APPEARANCE IN TRUMP'S EYES
My thoughts are that going forward any person running for president should be able to pass a basic constitutional law test. Every job has qualifications so why shouldn’t the presidency ?
He has no experience with law except for breaking it
VOTE, VOTE, and VOTE
BLUE, For Honesty and Our Democracy For All !!!!
Listening to both of you today has really scared me. I know that our country is in trouble but now I’m truly disturbed, disgusted, and angry about the manner in which certain judges addressed the issue at hand and it really shows how some of those judges sitting there have been basically bought from day one!!!!!!
If Obama would of said i want total immunity the Supreme Court would of denied it
Do people in the USA realise what damage has been done to the reputation of thieir country by this "person"? If he is not imprisoned, stripped of all title & privilage by the end of the year nobody will have the slightest respect for you at all. That's a result we do not wish on the USA
Those of us with half a brain and spoonful of integrity do. We know we are the laughing stock of the world, largely due to all the events since electing the orange turd in chief.

I really don't think a lot of people get that world standing is important. Countries don't want to work with a country who has inner turmoil. The economy is linked with the rest of the world and what's happening. Americans seem to be very insular and to not realise this.
We were already downgraded by moody’s because of the political incompetence. If trump gets installed other countries would be well advised not to work with USA. Unfortunately Russia, china, NK, maybe Hungary, Saudi’s will.
Yes, we absolutely realize this. And thank you for your concern. This election is critical. The MeidasTouch network has been a huge breath of fresh air for those of us who care about preserving our democracy. 💙🇺🇲
