The criminal indictment of the Trump Organization puts Donald Trump squarely in the crosshairs of legal jeopardy. But a wounded Trump is still a dangerous Trump; creating a new urgency to jumpstart his political life and remain viable as a candidate. He won't run because he's afraid to lose. But as long as his MAGA base thinks he'll run, the more money he can raise. In addition, he can claim that the DA is only coming after him as a political vendetta. But to remain viable, Trump must appeal to an extremist base that is more prone to conspiracy thinking, violence, racism and hatred. All of this was on display last weekend at his first public rally and will only intensify as his legal troubles mount.

The Manhattan DA's case against the Trump Organization and Donald Trump has put intense pressure on the former President as he finds himself increasingly cornered. The prospect of an indictment has forced him back out on the campaign trail as he seeks to shield himself from prosecution by spinning the case as yet another political witch hunt. At the same time, the GOP must reckon with the fact that for good or ill, Trump is still the center of the Republican universe and thus they need to change the narrative. In the past several months, the right has engaged in a propaganda war to white wash the history of the Trump presidency and what happened on January 6th. The result has been a steady drip of stunning and shameless lies. Finally, political strategist and Democratic stalwart Joe Trippi joins Mea Culpa to discuss the fall out caused by the GOP's authoritarian crusade.

Another Trump development project in Saudi Arabia is annoucned. AP correspondent Mike Hempen reports.
This week, Scott sat down with Senior Editors Kate Klonick and Eric Columbus to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including: “An Un-Airing of Grievances.” Since the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, some supporters of his—including several figures within the Trump administration—have actively sought to have individuals who have said critical or purportedly insensitive things about Kirk removed from their jobs or otherwise punished. This arguably came to a head after Jimmy Kimmel Live! was pulled from the air following statements by FCC Chairman Brendan Carr suggesting networks might face additional regulatory scrutiny for not addressing alleged misinformation about Kirk's killer he purportedly put forward. And while Kimmel is now back on the air, several major local affiliates are refusing to air his show. How do these efforts comport with the First Amendment? And what do they mean for freedom of speech regardless?“You Can't Spell Appeasement Without App.” After months of negotiations—during which it has held off on enforcing a statutorily mandated ban—the Trump administration has announced that it has reached a deal with China regarding the disposition of the social media platform TikTok and its operation in the United States. But the public details of the deal have been few and far between, and much more remains to be worked out. How close to a deal are the parties in actuality? And does it address the national security concerns motivating Congress's ban in the first place?“Playing with White House Money.” The Trump administration has been rocked by two major corruption-related stories in the past week. First, the Justice Department is reported to have closed an investigation into White House immigration czar Tom Homan, who reportedly accepted $50,000 from undercover FBI agents prior to joining the administration on the understanding that he would help the donors gain access to the incoming Trump administration. And second, new details suggest that the recent deal to permit chip sales to the UAE were tied up in a variety of major cryptocurrency deals that enriched both the Trump Organization and others in the Trump administration—only the latest in a long history of suspect cryptocurrency transactions by Trump-related businesses. How big a problem are these transactions? And what do they tell us about the state of corruption on the second Trump administration?In object lessons, Eric marked the Jewish New Year with a novel recommendation: “To Rise Again at a Decent Hour,” by Joshua Ferris, a midlife-crisis tale woven through Judaism, baseball, and dentistry—two subjects close to his heart, and one that isn't. Scott, meanwhile, is back on the D.C. concert circuit and wants you to join him at Union Stage on October 14 to see Katie Pruitt, whose rock-infused Americana sound he thinks deserves a bigger audience. Kate rounded things out with a little blue hippo—specifically the souvenir version of the famous Egyptian figurine better known as “William,” a reminder of a past mother-daughter trip to Paris that involved butchering French while scouring the Louvre.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

It's been a dramatic and unprecedented week in American legal and political history, as former President Donald Trump once again dominates headlines with a whirlwind of court activity from coast to coast. The biggest shock came just days ago from New York's appellate court. After months of intense proceedings, this court tossed out the staggering $454 million civil fraud judgment that had loomed over Trump, his family, and his key business associates. Only a year ago, Judge Arthur Engoron had found that the Trump Organization engaged in repeated business fraud—everything from wildly inflating the square footage of Trump's Manhattan penthouse, to overvaluing Mar-a-Lago by listing it as a private family home instead of a social club. In scathing language, Engoron accused Trump and his team of showing “a complete lack of contrition and remorse,” insisting that the evidence of asset inflation by Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and Eric Trump “leap off the page and shock the conscience.” Trump, for his part, railed against what he called a politically motivated attack, declaring himself “an innocent man” during a fiery closing statement last year and insisting that New York Attorney General Letitia James was motivated by political ambition.But this week, that enormous financial threat disappeared in a legal instant, as the appeals court found critical fault with the earlier decision and threw it out. Trump quickly celebrated the turnabout, telling supporters and reporters, “They stole $550 million from me with a fake case—and it was overturned. They said this was a fake case.” Yet, the court left in place some restrictions on Trump's business leadership, reminding everyone that the legal saga isn't truly over.The twists don't end in New York. On the federal front, the story of Trump's alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election continues to evolve. The criminal case, once overseen by Special Counsel Jack Smith, had charged Trump with conspiracy to overturn his defeat and for actions leading up to the January 6th Capitol riots. The case set a historical precedent: never before had a former president faced criminal indictment for acts committed in office. Battles over legal immunity wound up before the U.S. Supreme Court, which in July 2024 ruled that former presidents do enjoy “some immunity” for official acts. In a practical sense, this suggested that prosecuting a president—current or former—would always be a labyrinthine challenge.Then, as 2024 drew to a close and Trump secured re-election, Jack Smith dropped the prosecution, citing presidential immunity for a sitting president. Smith's final report left no doubt, though—the evidence, he argued, would have warranted conviction if the case could proceed. Meanwhile, in the Georgia election interference case, the prosecution found itself mired in controversy when Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was disqualified due to personal entanglements, while Trump continues to face counts that legal observers admit may languish unresolved during his new term.Out west, a quieter but significant university lawsuit against Trump presses on, with hearings and deadlines marking the calendar, but these cases remain largely on the periphery compared to the headline-grabbing criminal and civil actions swirling around Donald Trump.I want to thank you all for tuning in—this has been a whirlwind of courtrooms, controversy, and history in the making.

A New York appeals court tosses the half-billion-dollar civil fraud judgment against Donald Trump and the Trump Organization, a crushing defeat for Attorney General Letitia James. President Trump thanks police, federal agents, and the National Guard at a dinner in Washington, while left-wing journalists are caught spinning a story on a DC arrest that turns out to be very different from their framing. Two Loudoun County high school boys suspended for questioning why a female student was in their locker room spark state and federal investigations into the district's gender identity policies.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- Last year, New York Judge Arthur F. Engoron found that Donald Trump inflated the value of assets controlled by the Trump Organization in past financial statements. With no jury, Judge Engoron unilaterally chose to fine Trump $500 million and barred him from conducting business in New York for three years. Notably, in 2018, while campaigning to become New York Attorney General, Letitia James vowed to “sue” Trump and routinely spoke of how she would like to see him imprisoned—providing evidence to the defense's legal argument that this civil suit is entirely political. Trump's legal team appealed the decision—and now, a New York Appeals Court has thrown out the half-billion-dollar judgement. In his opinion, Justice Peter Moulton wrote: “While harm certainly occurred, it was not the cataclysmic harm that can justify a nearly half billion-dollar award to the State.” 3:30pm- Jack Ciattarelli—Republican candidate for Governor of New Jersey and a former New Jersey State Representative—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his tireless efforts to defeat Democrat Mikie Sherrill in November's election. Ciattarelli reacts to a new Eagleton Center for Public Interest/ Rutgers University poll which shows he trails Sherrill by 9-points (their poll last month had Ciattarelli down 20-points). He notes that the poll undercounted male voters and Republicans—which means this race is a coin toss. Plus, energy prices in NJ are skyrocketing and Sherrill's policies are the reason why. 3:50pm- Matt is nearly “concussed” by a falling studio microphone. Rich expresses very little interest in Matt's wellbeing—and is more concerned with the fact that he used the term “concussed.”

Plus, Dr. Coates reacts to a Sky News report that Italy has arrested a Ukrainian suspected of involvement in the Nord Stream pipeline explosions in 2022.

Plus, should Rich and Dr. Reilly write a book together? 4:40pm- While appearing on Fox Business, FBI Director Kash Patel said of the raid on President Trump's Mar-a-Lago home in 2022 by Biden's Justice Department: "There was no predicate to go and invade his home—and we have answered that definitively." 4:50pm- During an interview on Thursday, President Donald Trump revealed he'll do a ride along through Washington D.C. with police and military tonight. 5:05pm- Last year, New York Judge Arthur F.

In April of 2018, Giorgi Rtskhiladze answered the door of his Connecticut home to find two FBI agents bearing a subpoena waiting for him. Their questions: What was his interaction with Donald Trump, the Trump family, and the Trump Organization? What did he know about Michael Cohen's business dealings? Why was he the person who Cohen had a text conversation with about the possibility of damaging tapes of Donald Trump from Russia? Though he and his family were stunned that the agents came to their home at night, instead of asking him to come in for an interview, news broke - and Giorgi found himself in the middle of a media maelstrom, as well as in the midst of one of the most salacious pieces of evidence which in part triggered the Mueller investigation. This is Giorgi's story of growing up in Soviet Georgia, emigrating to the US, and his dealings with Donald Trump. All of this culminating in his disillusion with the Justice Department, special counsel Mueller, Adam Schiff, and the American media after his subpoena - and the journey through the criminal justice system that ensued.https://amzn.to/46y9UlzBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
