  • Fed Up Judge Blows the Doors Wide Open on Trump & DOGE

    Fed Up Judge Blows the Doors Wide Open on Trump & DOGE
    Mar 14 2025
    In breaking news, a DC Federal Judge has for the first time found that Elon Musk and his DOGE are “federal agencies” exercising tremendous independent executive power at lightning speed and in secret, meaning they are subject to public records requests about their nefarious work aka FOIA requests. Michael Popok explains why this first ruling is so important to outing Musk and DOGE for the American people and in the dozen lawsuits against Trump now about Musk, and how the fight about whether Musk is a “simple advisor” with no power and thus subject to executive privilege, or is an independent actor is heading to the Supreme Court.

  • Judge Hits Musk With Surprise Order He’s Been Dreading

    Judge Hits Musk With Surprise Order He’s Been Dreading
    Mar 14 2025
    In breaking news, the first federal judge has ordered Elon Musk to give sworn testimony under oath about DOGE and his role in destroying the federal government, including decimating the federal workforce and cutting billions of dollars in funding to the States. Michael Popok dives into the new order, contrasts it to another order from this week finding DOGE subject to federal public records law, and explains why Judge Chutkan is the right judge for the job.

    Legal AF Full Episode 3/12/2025
    Mar 13 2025
    Michael Popok and Karen Friedman Agnifilo are back on the top-rated Legal AF podcast and debating: a landmark order against DOGE and Musk forcing them to reveal themselves to the American People; another appellate court rules against Trump's attempt to rip birthright citizenship from the Constitution; a new order about DOGE's efforts to chloroform a federal aid agency founded by Congress; the Trump Administration's attempts to deny a NY federal judge jurisdiction by whisking a green card holder who expresses views the Administration doesn't like, to red state Louisiana; and so much more at the intersection of law and politics.

The Gold Standard for Accurate Trump Trial News.

These guys bring accurate and professional reporting to America. They are serving as a vital link to truth and understanding. My only complaint is that they do not have a podcast everyday and if they had one everyday, I'd want one every 6 hours. 👍

Legal AF provides the deep details needed

I love most of the MSW network podcasts, Legal AF right up there with Daily Beans, providing the deeper legal takes that I need, shared in ways I can understand.
