    The Intersection with Michael Popok - 1/20/2026

    As Europe and Canada band together in Switzerland to tell off Trump to his face and kill his Greenland takeover and “Peace” Board filled with dictators, federal judges in the US rush to support US protestors against the lawless Trump Administration. At the same time, other judges are stepping forward to strip Trump’s lawyers from key prosecutor positions, as public interest groups like Democracy Forward have been forced to bring over 400 legal actions against the Trump Administration in the last 12 months. Meanwhile, Epstein survivors band together with Congress to implore a federal judge to force the immediate production of millions of hidden Epstein files and take Trump’s conflicted, corrupted DOJ out of control. Popok is joined by special guests, Epstein survivor and leader of the sex abuse victims movement Lisa Phillips, and founder of Democracy Forward Skye Perryman, to brief the Intersection podcast audience.
