  • Irritating adverts

    Irritating sudden adverts inserted without pause. Head bending to follow. I absolutely NEVER buy from these nuisance type adverts.

    Sometimes entertaining but superfluous and repetitive information that pads the length of the podcasts. Only advantage is that I can go to the toilet feeling assured that I won’t miss anything since it will be repeated!!!

    Thank you for slicing and dicing all the legal craziness of the day! I’m not sure how you keep from being swallowed up by the insanity of our current government, but I greatly appreciate it.

    Thank you and Godspeed ✌🏽

  • Wrong Steele

    The Dossier, which mentioned the Pee tape was compiled by Christopher Steele British counter intelligence specialist. Not Michael Steele. I have noticed this before and finally looked it up. Why has noone pointed this out?

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Legal AF 8/12/26
Q: What is the core legal issue in the birthright citizenship challenge and why can't the President rewrite the Constitution?
The core issue is that birthright citizenship is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment, and a few exceptions are narrowly defined by Wong Kim Ark; executive orders attempting to create new exceptions are deemed illegal, as they would override constitutional protections.
Legal AF 8/12/26
Q: How confident are you that the Comey case will survive to trial and result in a conviction?
While not commenting on a specific defense filing, the guest explains that indictments are supported by grand jury probable cause, but emphasizes that predicting outcomes is unreliable and subject to changing circumstances; the case's trajectory remains uncertain.
Epstein Survivor Tells All as Hidden FBI Tapes Surface
Q: What was your takeaway from the meeting with Blanche?
That the meeting felt like a no-win scenario for survivors, characterized by condescension and gaslighting, which underscored the larger problem of how powerful figures handle survivor testimony and the need for real, substantive action rather than performative assurances.
Epstein Survivor Tells All as Hidden FBI Tapes Surface
Q: Why did you want to be in the room and speaking directly to the members of the Senate Confirmation Committee about Todd Blanche?
Because it was crucial for survivors to tell their authentic stories directly to lawmakers and DOJ officials, to emphasize the human impact, demand transparency, and push for accountability and a proper examination of investigative leads.
Trump DOJ Faces Reckoning over Fraud on Court
Q: What is the core legal issue the judge is addressing regarding the settlement and potential fraud on the court?
The core issue is whether the parties privately could or did arrange settlements and immunities in a way that undermines the legitimacy of court proceedings, and whether those actions constitute fraud on the court that could be addressed through Rule 60D3 or other sanctions.
