    Trump's DOJ in Collapse as Top Officials Quit

    The DOJ leadership is collapsing before our very eyes just 72 hours after the midterm election, and now Trump’s “grand conspiracy” criminal investigation of Obama and Obama-era officials, presided over by Judge Cannon, has claimed another victim in the US Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Jason Reding Quinones, who abruptly resigned.  That makes 3 top officials quit or be forced out in 72 hours. Popok predicts who goes next and why, and who will try to enter private practice, including a Trump judge or two, to make a lot of money representing MAGA causes while avoiding impeachment.   Subscribe:  @LegalAFMTN   Order the new book from MeidasTouch, WTF America?!: The Way Out of This Hell and Back to Democracy, today: https://bit.ly/wtfamericayoutube Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

    Trump Melts Down as Dems Try to Obtain and Release Jack Smith’s Mar a Lago Report on Trump Crimes

    One of many positive developments is that the Democrats soon to be in charge of the Senate and House Judiciary Committees can go after Jack Smith’s Mar a Lago Volume 2 report outlining the “beyond the reasonable doubt” evidence against Trump for Espionage Act and Obstruction of Justice crimes, and try to override Judge Cannon’s order blocking its release for all time. Popok explains what that looks like, and how the future DOJ can also play a role as Judge Cannon may consider heading for the exits and becoming a private lawyer for republican causes.
