Judge Brutally Outsmarts Trump in Major Case

In breaking news, Abrego Garcia has asked for and received an order that keeps him longer in federal detention to protect him from the Trump Administration deporting or removing him in the middle of the night away from Federal Court jurisdiction. The irony was not lost on Magistrate Judge Holmes who has ordered that Abrego Garcia remain in protective custody until his July 16th hearing before Judge Crenshaw and beyond. Michael Popok reports on this turn of affairs of a jailed person begging the court to stay in jail to be protected from the Trump Administration. Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Trump Braces to Lose Millions After Fatal Court Ruling

E Jean Carroll is about to beat Trump for the third time in front of the Second Circuit Appeal, having lost last week on his bid to have the “United States of America” substitute in to avoid paying her the $83.5 million jury verdict judgement for sexually abusing and defaming her, and now about to lose in front of of the same judges on his argument that he has “presidential immunity” to defame her. Michael Popok puts it all together and what happens next at the Supreme Court on his latest hot take. Subscribe:  @LegalAFMTN  Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Trump Lawyers Finally Face Fatal Penalty

Trump Instantly Rebuked After Lawsuit Threat

Trump, to try to distract from the fact that he has lost track of Iran’s uranium stockpile altogether, and failed to take out a 4th hardened mountain facility, is threatening to sue CNN and the New York Times for “defamation.” Michael Popok takes a look at the new demand letter, the lawyer behind it, and both media outlets telling Trump and his lawyers to pound sand as they stand by their reporting that the initial top secret reports found that Iran’s nuclear program was only set back a few months.

Supreme Court Walks Right Into Instant Checkmate

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.

Supreme Court Makes Biggest Ruling of Term

In breaking news, the MAGA majority of the Supreme Court led by Amy Coney Barrett in the Birthright Citizenship/14th Amendment case,  just destroyed 100 years of precedent that allowed Federal trial court judges to issue nationwide injunctions to address the nationwide harm caused by a President’s abuse of power, declaring that only the Supreme Court can fashion nationwide relief. Michael Popok explains that to protect 14th Amendment birthright citizenship, lawyers in 3 states will have to move quickly to either certify a class action and/or get their cases declaring Trump’s Executive Order unconstitutional back to the US Supreme Court on an emergency basis, as tens of thousands of babies born in red states and thejr citizenship and federal funding hang in the balance.

Desperate Trump Sues Every Judge After Big Losses

SCOTUS Sends Secret Message to Stop Trump Order

Did Justice Sotomayor just outfox the Trump DOJ by sending out an “invitation” to a Massachusetts federal judge to find a way to circumvent a recent Supreme Court ruling to make sure that deportees obtain due process before being sent to countries like South Sudan or Libya? Michael Popok takes a close look at Sotomayor’s dissent, the next steps taken by Judge Murphy to tell the Trump Administration that the Court’s ruling doesn’t stop his other “remedial” orders, and Trump’s DOJ rushing to the Court and asking for a “clarification” because the Judge is being mean and “defiant.” For their buy 1 get 1 50% off deal, head to https://3DayBlinds.com/LEGALAF Subscribe:  @LegalAFMTN  Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!
