    Trump DOJ Faces Reckoning over Fraud on Court

    The DOJ and Todd Blanche have again underestimated Federal Judge Kathleen Williams in Miami, as they brag that they avoided having the Blanche “super pardon” for Trump and his family invalidated by her. Not so fast, as Popok reports she has actually invited a new motion to be filed for her to address whether Blanche committed a Fraud on the court, leading to the “super pardon” release of the Trump family being tossed as well.

    Todd Blanche Under Fire as Judges Seek Ethics Review

    Will Todd Blanche be parred sometime after he’s likely confirmed as the Attorney General of the United States? Will bar regulators for New York and the District of Columbia do the right thing to ensure that he complies with his ethics and professional responsibilities? Popok is joined by Lawyers Defending American Democracy (LDAD) and Graves to discuss the impact of Bar complaints and Department of Justice alumni protest letters in both the confirmation process and its aftermath.

    Blanche Faces Instant Karma over Trump's Twisted Past

    Among the many black marks against Todd Blanche becoming Attorney General, there is perhaps no blacker and darker mark than his mistreatment of the Epstein Survivors, along with his lead role in covering up a child sex trafficking ring whose leaders are connected to his “client” Trump. Popok explains that 99.9% of the Epstein Survivors have never been interviewed by the DOJ or the FBI to tell their truth and provide their evidence, as the public’s attention is diverted to stare at the pile of produced and unproduced Epstein files. And it all came to a head during Blanche’s confirmation hearing as he was forced to confront some of the Survivors and melted under the lights. Popok reports on how the FBI and DOJ should be forced to set up interviews with the survivors and pursue justice on their behalf in criminal investigations.

    Trump’s Spin on Federal Judge’s Ruling Falls Apart

    Popok reports that the Trump DOJ as of today continues to take the position that Todd Blanche's 1 paragraph "amendment" to the phony settlement agreement between Trump and his own IRS and DOJ, provides Trump and his family and associates with immunity from any future tax audit liability or criminal prosecution, relying on a distortion of Judge Williams' scathing ruling against them. Blanche has tried to get out in front of it by telling Senate Democrats that he is a victim of a "hatchet" job by Judge Williams!

    Trump Survivor Finally Gets Her Money

    E Jean Carroll just did something that no court ordered her to do, and in one elegant masterstroke cut Trump off at the needs from further attacking her. Popok reports on E Jean Carroll— the only person in history to have a court find that Trump is a sex abuser — now finding new ways to torment Trump. She has elected to keep the $5,625,005.48 of his money he had to pay her today for abusing her in a bank account earning interest until Trump falls flat on his face in front of the the Supreme Court for a second time, undermining his PR campaign and projection, to paint her as someone in it for the money!

    In breaking news, Popok reports on fellow independent journalist and commentator Katie Phang requesting that Judge Sullivan find AG Nominee Todd Blanche in Contempt of Court and fine him $1,000 a day for violating court orders requiring the production of certain Epstein Files.
