Trump REEKS OF DESPERATION During Speech on his CRIMINAL CASES - Meidas Touch



Michael Popok of Legal AF critiques Trump’s latest lie this time in front of a Jan6 insurrectionists fundraiser that “great law firms” are lining up to represent him, when he’s really down to a bunch of solo practitioners and tiny unheralded law firms. - 06/25/2023.

Your count just turned over from 28 to 29. 29 months ago there were elections in Portugal.

January 22 – The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, the first legally binding international agreement comprehensively to prohibit nuclear weapons, comes into effect.[14]
January 24 – 2021 Portuguese presidential election: Incumbent president Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa is reelected.[15]

Not to mention, how many has he not bothered to pay? Representing this offensive blowhard is a losing proposition - yet in recent rants he's also lied, saying that he has all these lawyers offering to represent him.

active in the Southern District of Florida, and therefore knows not only the law but also the territory. So, despite Meidas Touch's clickbait headlines, I tend to listen to him (in small doses.)

So I tend to post his analyses despite, as you say, the OTT subject lines.

not necessarily in that order, are my go-tos. Joyce Vance does it on Substack ("Civil Discourse&quot . She recently sent out a newsletter which she could have called "Everything you wanted to know about discovery but didn't know what to ask." Anyone who is not connected to someone who has faced a criminal trial may not even know it exists. I found that very enlightening.

I generally post Glenn Kirschner's analysis-of-the-day and the other three are on various news shows, sometimes along with Kirschner. But the one I see most frequently is Andrew Weissmann, I've wondered if the news shows compete to book him.

and have seen a few things he has said, all IMO sound. I'll have to look harder for him. Thanks.
