    Trump Hit with MAJOR Legal TWIST Over Military Crackdown
    Jun 20 2025
    Sure the 9th Circuit stayed part of the case that would put Governor Newsom back in power over California, but can't the federal trial judge continue to decide whether Trump violated the Posse Comitatus Act by using US Marines against Americans? That's a very good question, and Popok gets to the bottom of it on his latest hot take!

    Trump FACES NUCLEAR BLUNDER as Key INTEL goes MISSING
    Jun 20 2025
    Trump's non-existent planning for Israel's attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, has now put the world and US interests at risk, as international inspectors have LOST TRACK OF Iran's enriched uranium stockpile which is enough to make 10 bombs. Popok rips the cover off this scandal, as inspectors have stopped their 2x a day inspection of the 9 Iranian nuclear facilities in the face of the war, and Trump has no answer for the missing bomb making material.

  • Federal Judges Make MASSIVE RULING on Trump TROOPS IN LA

    Federal Judges Make MASSIVE RULING on Trump TROOPS IN LA
    Jun 20 2025
    California's Governor has a huge decision to make today now that he's on the losing end of a 3-0 9th Circuit Panel decision that allows Trump to maintain control over the California National Guard and sets dangerous precedent for Trump taking over other Blue States. Does he ask all 29 judges of the 9th Circuit for a rehearing on the appeal, and/or file an emergency application to the US Supreme Court, or take his loss. Popok explains which of these unsavory options Governor Newsom must pursue to protect States Rights.

    Trump HIT with MOTHER OF ALL LAWSUITS by American Bar Association
    Jun 17 2025
    The American Bar Association has sued the ENTIRE Trump Administration in a new federal suit aimed at destroying the "Trump Law Firm Intimidation Policy" to destroy the independence of lawyers in America, and you won't believe who is representing the ABA in court! Popok takes a close look at the new federal court case, as the suit tells the terrible tale of major law firms already giving in and gutting their pro bono programs to help disadvantaged and underprivileged people to avoid being the target of Trump's attacks.

  • Trump DOUBLES DOWN on Congress Act ATTACK…Constitutional VIOLATION?!?

    Trump DOUBLES DOWN on Congress Act ATTACK…Constitutional VIOLATION?!?
    Jun 16 2025
    Trump's vicious assaults on women is not just in his private life as proven in the E Jean Carroll cases, it also animates his policies, as he now goes after Congress's landmark 1994 Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), and tries to defund all 50 state agencies set up to help female victims of sex and domestic violence assaults. But not if a coalition of 17 state offices devoted to protecting women have their say, with a new federal suit and injunction request filed today in Rhode Island. Popok takes a hard look at the suit, the constitutional violations by Trump, and his depraved policy initiatives under the guise of "anti-DEI" and "anti-immigration".
