  • Superior Legal Reporting

    Popok is where you get the inside of so much corruption in the DC legal system. He reports on all the major court cases, judges, rulings and the lawyers and their ineptitude when applicable. A trusted choice!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Trump Finally Surfaces and Can't Believe which GOP Senator Went to Court Against Him!!!
Q: Do you think the amicus briefs will change the outcome of the current injunction on the fund?
The host believes that while not determinative, amicus briefs can influence judges when well-argued and timely, potentially swaying how courts view the balance of power between Congress and the Executive, and may affect subsequent rulings or settlements.
Trump PANICS as AZ AG Returns to Grand Jury for Fake Electors Indictment!!!
Q: What is your attorney general office going to do to ensure people that their vote is going to count and that we won't have another certification problem?
The AG's office plans to uphold election law, present the case to the grand jury, and seek indictments where the evidence and the law support it, following the court's blueprint to ensure accountability.
Trump Goes into Hiding over DHS Secretary Senate Screw Up!!!
Q: I'm going to ask you about Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Are you aware of the fact that in that case, he has agreed to be removed to Costa Rica and that Costa Rica has agreed to accept them?
No, I'm not.
Trump Headed for Rude Awakening with Instant Mistake?!?
Q: How is this run through the vice president's office? Who is the point person for you guys in your discussions with them?
Coordination occurs through federal and state partners with the vice president's task force referenced as a North Star, while the on-the-ground work is managed by the relevant departments (CMS, Medicaid, Medicare) and state health care services, with staff-level interactions.
Trump Headed for Rude Awakening with Instant Mistake?!?
Q: Bonta. How is this working in reality?
The approach combines federal funding with state execution, involving inspectors general, civil and criminal units, and a process that prioritizes protecting funds for Californians while pursuing fraud enforcement; the effort is described as longstanding and ongoing rather than a sudden shift.
