On this episode, Popok unpacks one of the most alarming breaches of national security in modern history: a Trump Administration group chat discussing war plans was reportedly leaked to a journalist. As the fallout begins, Fox’s Pete Hegseth is thrown under the bus by his own colleagues, and Trump erupts—"They did WHAT?!"
Meanwhile, the Trump Administration defies a federal judge, refusing to confirm whether it violated an injunction barring the use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport migrants to a notorious El Salvador prison without due process. An appellate court blasts the move, declaring Nazis were treated better by the U.S. government than those being deported today.
Popok also breaks down two major cases before the Supreme Court: whether the rehiring of 16,000 probationary federal workers should be blocked, and whether Louisiana having two Black-majority voting districts is somehow one too many.
Plus: Alina Habba is reportedly being groomed by Trump for higher office, and JD Vance is being exiled to—er, joining his wife in—Greenland after his alleged role in the war plans leak.
All this and more at the intersection of law and politics!

So how is a leak of war-time operations not considered classified, but the flight schedule for an illegal deportation of detainees is considered a national security risk?? These idiots are digging deeper in to the pit of lies and it's really disturbing!
Send your post to your Congressman & Senator! I'm going to copy your post and send it to mine.
Yup.
I think the Regime should be fired, arrested, indicted, and jailed in El Salvador!!!!
Or deported to Mars, on one of Elonia's exploding rockets.
Better yet, put them all on the next SpaceX flight and wait for it to explode.
Bambi, Now you’re talking!
TruthSeeker, I’m with you! But the level of these crimes.. especially orange vomit’s deadly sedition qualifies for the de@th penalty. But a slow version of that in prison is acceptable too.
I do wish our military would protect us from the domestic terrorists and seditionists! WTF? And who are the people complying with all this crap? Remove DEI…done in the snap of the fingers!🤬
There’s not a single country that respects or fears the United States under this administration.
Nor most of the sane population here. So wrong so horrible Such immoral group of losers
They MAY fear the trump.
I agree with you to a degree, Paula. What They (our allies) do fear is that we will say, do, or leak something that will hurt the rest of the free world! We have already done harm to Ukraine. Our allies are rapidly distancing themselves from us. They are not including us in their own security plans and are less likely to share important intelligence with us. They see us allying with Putin and other authoritarian governments, as well as acting like them with our aggressiveness towards Greenland and Canada. We are becoming more isolated from allegiances that have taken years to develop and maintain. And, yes, this only encourages bad actors because they are less concerned about U.S. retaliation.
I don’t think they have shared world secrets with us lately nor will they in the future. We are a sitting target and don’t think that Putin has our backs. Dangerous Every day I feel less safe no joke And what else have they done that puts us US in danger?
I agree! We are simply making the U.S. increasingly suseptible to manipulation.
Court Marshall and prosecute them all. We are so at risk with this clown show.
*Martial
Cabinet of FOOLS
Cabinet of greedy ignorance.? Cabinet of disrespectful billionaires?
Cabinet of "who cares about the people"?
Cabinet of "who cares about safety of military"?
We could do this all day.
Who cares about the planet and it's people?
Junk drawer
We need to order up a U-Haul and declutter, top drawer and down.
Cesspool of maggot infested turds!!
Cabinet of idiotic MORONS who are evil, greedy bastards!!
Waltz blaming Hegseth? They're BOTH complicit!!!!!!! Waltz can't get off that easily! And I heard Gabbert LIE in the Congressional hearing. Incompetents!!!!
Yes, she lied and then she sat there with a huge smirk on her face for the rest of the hearing. It made me sick.
just another Russian Asset
Unfit for service
Pete Kegbreath was drunk at the time.
When is he NOT drunk?? Or womanizing?? Or human trafficking?? And when is dumb Donald NOT a clueless idiot?? 😵💫
Drunk or sober a lowlife spirant of white trash who rose unjustifiably to this position. Thx to the trash in the white house
Arrest them all!
I heard someone call it whiskeyleaks
Also "OPSEC"? No, "'TRIPLE SEC"!
and vodkaleaks. I bet he mixes whiskey with vodka, representing tRump and putin.
Every sloppy move this administration makes is about cruelty, racism and retribution and it is creating a very unsafe environment for the world. There is bigotry and racism within every decision being made. This is frightening. This will be the FIGHT of our lives. They want your children straight, white, armed and angry.
MAGA must Lie, Cheat and Steal! Abortion. Guns. Equality. End Christian nationalism!Maga is the CONFEDERACY!!
Familiarize yourself with this unholy movement! These people took part in the insurrection. They want your children white, ignorant, armed and angry!!

Homan rounded up 300 "illegal aliens' in Boston, MA yesterday. Then he snickered there were probably collaterals within them. There were green card immigrants and legal immigrants in them. He is a fascist pig. He announced today he will be coming back for more. Time for MA to send out an arrest warrant for him, for arresting innocent people, if he steps one foot back in our state!
Unholy movement on the golden toilet.
They have my daughter and my grandsons. So sad for them.
all sociopaths and psychopaths that USA has are in tRumputin's movement and all its everything.
Only the ethical social forensic psychiatrists and psychologists for the criminally insane are able to handle tRumputin and anything related to him. But the American Psychiatric Association needs to, at least, quit undermining those ethical social forensic psychiatrists for the criminally insane, the American Psychiatric Association needs to make amends for its irresponsible attitude regarding the phenomenon of tRumputin&his movement. American Psychiatric Association needs to come back to its senses of ethical accountability and action for the sake of democratic society!
I hate all men who behave this way. An utter disgrace. Let’s hope someone spikes his coke w/ fentanyl. God save us all!
What about the women?? Gabbard, suzie wiles, MTG, boobert and so many more!!
What about Hegseth giving War Plans against China to Musk? Why aren’t we hearing anything about that?? You KNOW he gave them to Musk on Monday morning!
Yes, I hope that doesn’t get buried under all the other crap this administration doles out on a daily basis.
Everyday we should hammer this home like Benghazi but much worse. Maybe we will see the repercussions from this
Absolutely!! I’ll put a call into my two Senators & Jeffries (my House Reps are MAGATS), and encourage them to do that!
This needs to be put on front burner. B4 hegseth went on lying fox non news he bragged that he just had a nice conversation w/ musk.what???? Who cares? What does that even mean? Meanwhile tesla stock goes down & down.
Yeah, I’ll BET he had a “nice conversation” with Musk!! Both of them are Snakes - and China most likely already has our plans in hard copy! I wish someone would bring THIS to the forefront!
Biden is in bed with China? Hunter is in bed with China? Why aren't they screaming Musk is in bed with China? It's okay for MAY GOTS to do it.
Musk IS in bed with China…. Joe & Hunter are NOT.
I understood Henry Morgan's first two sentences as sarcastic ridicule of tRumputinists' lies.
I’m so edge everyday with all that’s going on, I take things too seriously at times!
It's absolutely needed to be vigilant.
yep, eVIlon briefs terrorists putin of russia, xi of china about everything in USA. The Guardian has written about it last September already. it's why I've been livid that USA allowed eVIlon to be the most powerful factor in everything.
I’m right there with you on that!
The bed where the Saudis fund s what ever trump wants thru Disinformation Miss truths to delay us from see what is happening until its to Late. Just Like my Parents told me of Germany 1930-1945, Its a false security of we are safe here in America from outside danger Until we see are to late to stop the violence as the rhetoric surges on until we Break of Submit. Speak out or be voiceless in the new America. As they believe it is the Lost Cause that they are there to cause the a violent uprising to scare us to Obey there LOST Cause.
I’m sorry, Henry, if I missed your sarcasm….. I’m a bit on edge these days.
I would venture to say we are all on edge Kandace. The anti-Christ is forcing the Apocolypse!
Plausible deniability.. ALMOST !!
IMPEACH!!!
Already on the horrific day of his so-called "inauguration", the quisling tRumputin and his minions have committed several coups against America. he&his regime were already impeachable on the same jan 20ieth 2025 so I signed the already existing https://www.impeachtrumpagain.org/?emci=b7ec0ad0-49d7-ef11-88d0-0022482a9d92&emdi=81e076a2-51d7-ef11-88d0-0022482a9d92&ceid=5213211
He should have Never been allowed to run for president again He’s a Fn Traitor 😤😡😤 Everyone Of Them Are Corrupt and Just as Evil
“Signal Fires” is a blistering protest anthem forged in the roots of folk, blues, and soul—and sharpened by betrayal at the highest levels of power.
This song rips the veil off a devastating act of recklessness inside the Trump White House, where classified military plans were leaked over unsecured chats for ego and clout.

Tried to share this on FB, but for some reason it wouldn't allow it. GREAT song.....TRUTH!!!
LOVE it!!!
Right now I'm pretty much concerned about social security as I live on 1K a month SS and can't afford anything. I'm also wondering if sub stack is going to go to fully paid subscriptions. If that's the case I'm out of here!
Also I'm super concerned about the s*** they're pulling about voters registration!!!!! What the f*** do they think they're pulling now? And they want every voters personal data in every state are you f****** kidding me????
Meidas isn't the same as Substack. Paid subscriptions are needed, but we're not penalized here on Meidas, if we're existing on tight low budget incomes. Thanks, guys.
I dont think u need to worry about that. And yes ss is on the line. They r horrible people. I am not on a pd subscription yet but I will. I just need to understand it better. But meidas is nailing it bc it's truth based, very very organized & cut to the chase. U need this info. Unpaid as well bc u can make calls/ comment/ send letters. We will win in the end!!!!!
Please, don't get me wrong,
I receive even less on SS and am paying member of TMN. just saying, just saying.
Never mind pete hegseth. T---p is the person responsible. The buck stops w/ t---p. No they were not doing their job!!!!! They were putting our military people in jeopardy. Military families should be screaming & and asking for the truth. We still don't know the damage that's been done. Total incompetence. Shameful!!!! Hilary s e mails. It's hilarious.
All starts with the man on the gold throne. White House trash
Absolutely. But we r stronger- when we work together.-- Joe biden. Did u notice they backpedaled on student loans after only after they filed a lawsuit? The t---p administration needs to pay every time theyA / withdraw a lawsuit bc that costs B/ LOSE a lawsuit. .now they just took 12 billion away for mental health, addiction. I wager they ll drop that too. It's a distraction from the sharing classified documents. Thats all it is. Stay focused.
yep, the quisling tRump's "god" is terrorist putin of russia who tasked him to literally destroy America, NATO and the Modern West.
this has never happened before in the entire history of the world much less of America - but it's been happening since the quisling krasnov groomed by kgb came down that escalator in 2015 usurping America. then, his minions on so-called "supreme court" gave him a so-called "immunity" last year so now he's on psychopathic rage to really finish his diabolic service to terrorist putin of russia.
the situation is so unprecedented that not even the sickest minds of horror could have made this up yet that's what's going on. it needs URGENTLY STOPPED!!
Pentagon 🇺🇲warned them all before these signal conversations to NOT use signal! They should have ALL known not to use this!!!
Judge Boasberg is the top justice in DC federal courts for terrorist threats, and has TS clearance just to hear ex parte and in camera evidence to preserve infosec.
The recent U.S. attack on Houthis revealed to the public a security breach of unparalleled proportions. The breach identified a rogue, unprincipled element of senior U.S. leadership. This group knowingly and unlawfully violated OPSEC rules and U.S. Espionage Act laws. The group discussed—on a commercial communications chat app—an imminent top secret aerial attack on an enemy in the Arabian Gulf.
The commercial app Signal’s chat communications by the law-breaking group extended across the U.S. and internationally. The group included one operative that was in Moscow where open communications are collected and analyzed.
The meeting was set up and attendees invited on the commercial Signal app by the NSA, our National Security Advisor Michael Waltz. The NSA is the most senior of our intelligence officers. This is not “setting an example”.
NSA Michael Waltz assumed "full responsibility" for the leaked Signal group chat of senior Trump officials. "I take full responsibility. I built the group," Waltz said on "The Ingraham Angle" Tuesday. "It's embarrassing. We're going to get to the bottom of it."
Get to the bottom of it? What is that supposed to mean? You more than hit rock bottom, you went 6 feet under. Government-owned phones are being issued by the Executive Branch with the commercial Signal chat app already installed on them. Each phone carrier knows the app eases stored data. This app’s erasure of data has the phone carrier guilty of violating the Presidential Records Act of 1978.
Secretary of Defense (SECDEF) Pete Hegseth, a participant in the group chat, has not yet hit rock bottom, but is aiming to exceed Waltz’s debacle depth record. Hegseth flat out denies the obvious breach by trying to wordsmith like a 5 year old. He denies “war plans” were given out. That is not the point. Classified information was disclosed.
After an initial round of air strikes on March 15, the SECDEF wrote in the chat that “CENTCOM was/is on point,” referring to the military’s Central Command, which was in charge of the operation. It is CENTCOM that would have set the SECRECY classification level for that attack. That is a record that no one has changed. It takes an “Authorized Declassifier” to change the assigned security level. The SECDEF had that unilateral authority as the OCA, but failed in his responsibility. He is not real bright. Amateur hour. Watch for them to change the official records.
Authority: The authority to declassify information rests with the Original Classification Authority (OCA) or their successor, or officials delegated declassification authority by the Secretary.
Executive Order 13526: This order outlines the procedures for classifying and declassifying national security information, and it's the primary legal basis for declassification.

it wouldn't surprise me that bowing to their idol terrorist putin of russia whose proxies are the khomeynist regime in iran and their proxies houthis, the tRumputinists did all this intentionally to satisfy their idol in kremlin while pretending they were doing something against houthis, as an "official American policy".
they only stumbled in their fervor to satisfy their idol i.e. got caught by J Greenberg.
they wanted another j i.e. jdvance to join them in their evil.
This reminds me of something…oh, I know-the Salem Witch Trials! You’d think Trump would recognize a witch hunt when he’s on one.
Do you get that Trump is eliminating fed dept agencies for their share of budget dollars? First, we have trump paying back Elon for election manipulation. Starlink. Think about it, Trump had prison or pres. Elon helped him pick, so now, Trump has to pay Elon back. Budget dollars from these agencies, and fed judges are trying to put the smack down on the closures. Trump is still maniacly desperate. He wants 3rd term to take him to his late ages, not prison
Bingo!!
Impeach ASAP!!
The main message I see from republicans is that “no lives matter” They are only here for instant gratification for themselves! They are cowards! They don’t care who they hurt or kill for their love of money. Most disgusting group of “humans” on the face of the planet. It’s hard to call them human! Also they don’t seem to understand that NO means NO.
they're the most evil sociopaths and psychopaths that USA has.
if USA was a real democracy - it would ban a such a cult and when needed imprison them!!
Stand firm, Judge Boseberg!
"...and whether Louisiana having two Black-majority voting districts is somehow one too many." I cannot see how Clarence Thomas can live and sleep with all the extreme right-wing decisions he supported in the Supreme Court that ultimately have led up to this case and many other such sad cases. This boggles my mind.
he thinks his ginny got him the ticket to the grumpy (read, privileged) white men club.
I am pretty sure the German POWs shipped here from Europe during WWII were treated better.
P.S. guys: The NOT war plans have been published: https://www.yahoo.com/news/attack-plans-trump-advisers-shared-121908379.html
Check it out!!
Greenland is included in the “Technate” that Elon Musk’s grandfather was promoting as a Canadian director of “Technocracy, Inc.”. His name was Haldeman. He was arrested in 1940 because Technocracy Inc promoted regional technocratic monarchy. Could Gramp’s dreamland be inspiration for DJT’s new obsession, and maybe backed by Theil too? After the allies won and Technocracy Inc fizzled, Gramps fled to South Africa. Check out the map that includes Greenland and Canada referenced in the Wikipedia entry.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technocracy_movement
None of what Elon’s driving has broad support, things just keep happening. We just had a unilateral attack on a country, that doesn’t seem to have been arranged with a 50 country alliance we used to work with. Could it be a dry run?
Exactly....quoted from an earlier post: "an imminent top secret aerial attack on an enemy in the Arabian Gulf". A dress rehearsal for Panama, Mexico, Canada, Greenland???
Incidentally, Trump's grandfather was run off by the Canadian Mounties, during Gold Rush days, because of his business endeavors, including an assortment of saloons, casinos, and brothels across the U.S. and into British Columbia. The checkered history is chronicled in great detail by biographer, Gwenda Blair, "a hotbed of sex, booze, and money, was the indisputable center of the action in Seattle.""The restaurant served food and liquor and was advertised to include "Rooms for Ladies", a common euphemism for prostitution." "Trump lived in Seattle until early 1893 and voted in Washington's first presidential election in 1892. That same year he became a U.S. citizen."
Friedrich [Drumpf] Trump returned a wealthy man to his homeland Germany in 1901. He'd married Elizabeth Christ, in 1902, returned to the U.S, then the family, including 1st daughter Elizabeth, went back to Germany due to Elizabeth Sr's homesickness.
"Soon after returning, German authorities determined that Trump had emigrated from Germany to avoid his tax and military-service obligations, and he was labeled a draft dodger. On December 24, 1904 the Department of Interior announced an investigation to expel Trump from the country. Officially, they found that he had violated the Resolution of the Royal Ministry of the Interior number 9916, a 1886 law that punished emigration to North America to avoid military service with the loss of German citizenship.[4]:99 For several months, he unsuccessfully petitioned the government to allow him to stay. He and his family finally returned to New York on June 30, 1905"
Friedrich Trump Sr's daughter Elizabeth was born on April 20, 1904. His son Fred was born on October 11, 1905, in Queens, New York. In 1907, his second son John was born.
He died in 1918, due to the Spanish Flu epidemic.
Could all of this chaos and turmoil be due to intergenerational revenge?
and @ GW B, see how it's important to follow the biographies and connect the dots. I'm so glad to have learned some new facts.
Fire the entire incompetent lot at the top. Hegseth, Walz an d Gabbard should go.
I’m in red state Ohio and we are standing up here for DEMOCRACY! Our congressman in my area is Mike Turner and he is not holding townhalls, BUT let me tell you how he has been on our news channels talking about how NATO Parliament Assembly will be meeting here in May. These Parliament Assembly's members are coming in from many different countries and we've been told to expect tight security over the Memorial Day weekend but after this mess up with texting our Top Secrets on an unsecured app makes me feel uneasy and scared for them!
Unfit irresponsible. Just leave try to get a real job
It is Jeffrey Goldberg FYI
DEI now stands for Definitely Egregious Incompetence
💙
It’s good to stay in the know, but I swear after some of these broadcasts my anxiety gets so high that I can’t hardly breathe. This is the most unsafe and insecure I’ve ever felt living in what’s supposed to be The United States of America but each passing day feels more like Putins’ Russia West.. The most terrible part of that is knowing that it’s exactly the goal of our current criminal President and his entire billionaire oligarch administration.
I so know the feeling. Have started feeling it already when the piece of shit entered the politics in 2014.
Nazis were white.
Popok has to admit that Admin's legal responses are being tailored quite specifically to accommodate a "unitary executive" decision by his SCOTUS majority... but regardless of whether Hegseth will be looking at the undercarriage of a bus, should we be also looking at Goldberg being set up for prosecution? No matter how moronic a move that might be?
I guess this is what they mean when they talk about transparency. It's transparency with our enemies.
yep.
If the Signal discussion didn't include "war plans" according to the participants, I think Jeffrey Golberg should be free to then publish the full Signal discussion. He obviously made screen shots of it. _ NOW PUBLISHED: https://www.yahoo.com/news/attack-plans-trump-advisers-shared-121908379.html
I really believe that this was not an isolated event. The entire "team" has been using Signal even before this violation of our Classified Information. Moreover, I think they did this and failed to see that they might get caught this time. They are arrogant enough to think that since Fascist Trump has immunity will carry over to them with his pardon power. This was on purpose, in my opinion, where they did this so our enemies could see the game plan. In my opinion, they have been selling out America since they were confirmed, but the use of Signal, by a corrupt "red"ubli"con(SS) failing to uphold their Oath of Office.
I've written similar to that effect of the point you're making a few comments here, too.
Thought Greenland said JD and company were not welcome?
In his 1st term people left, were fired , resign ed or had a scandal. It's just a minute b4 people start leaving and then they start talking.the pressure we put on these scumbag s have results. Focus on what matters. Protest, donate, make phone calls. It's exhausting but we need to keep standing up for the better good of our country.hey mega people there's room for u if u can acknowledge he is bad for our country. T---p does not care about u. That should make u angry & want to stand up for your family. Open your eyes.
Exactly!!
Maybe Habba will lose her license before then. Would be interesting if a lot of attorneys who file frivolous lawsuits or don't come to court prepared lose their licenses to practice law.
I hope Greenland DOES tell tRump and co. that they will have to fight for their land, and sooner rather than later. This nonsense has got to be put to a stop!
She doesn't even know how to introduce evidence.
They need to refuse them entry into Greenland. Stop this insanity. Also refuse the use of the airforce base in Greenland
Bingo!!
He has to be stopped
Popok the anvil reference made me laugh out loud and visualize Wyle Coyote aka Hegseth catching it while falling off a cliff.
Shocking. Constitution should ban drinking & drugs for all appointed officials and Cabinet Members. The gang that couldnt shoot straight. 🐒🐃🐎🐗🐈
Incompetent bunch of stooges!
I just subscribed to The Atlantic. I’d like to think we do have free press in this country but the way they are attempting to pin this on Jeffrey Goldberg is sickening.
Excellent reporting....Every Vets hearing this must be totally pissed with these "Goombas".
We are in a dictatorship! It’s obvious no one is going to do anything about it 😡 force is the only thing that would stop this regime and no one is going to do it 😡😡Donald Trump is going to continue doing whatever he wants to do. He is going to continue destroying America, the American people and the rest of the world. He thinks he owns the world and I’m beginning to think they’re handing it to him.😡😡😡😡👺👺👺👺😈😈😈😈😈 TALK DOES NOTHING ! YOU DEAL WITH CRIMINALS WITH FORCE😡😡😡
Thanks for this episode of Popok unfiltered! As you mentioned The SOD was thrown under the bus by the other members on the Signal-gate thread, it would be reason for Congress to repeal, impeach, and send the entire cabinet packing-they are SO INCOMPETENT! Not one of them has an ounce of common sense since they used an app used by everyday persons to discuss anything related to government! It’s just a sh!t show and is poorly reflecting on the general population of smart Americans who do give a damn what other nations think of us! I’m embarrassed to say that we have degraded to such a level. I’m with you, don’t get me started!
my big cocern is te statement "nobody got hurt". Do you tink for one minute that if an F18 were shot down during this "event" we would hear about it in a tmely basis? You'd find out months or years later when te body bag arrives @ Dover AFB. Or civilians had been killed: that it would ever be exposed...explained away as "justifiable" collateral damage monts later. I don't believe a word of the cover-up.
Good points, sadly.
When do they cross the lines bad enough to impeach them
Everyone associated to the Trump administration, all of his appointees plus should be brought up on charges as terrorist against the American people
It's what I keep saying!! they're so-called "proud boys"-"oath keepers"-kkk etc.... Canada has designated them as terrorist groups. What's stopping America to do the same??
To categorize them as domestic terrorists, it would mean turning on one of many militia groups they have on their side. They know, the majority of Americans don’t agree with their Rewriting and Use of Hitler’s Handbook. Trump’s team are desperately trying to destroy America’s Democracy from within as quickly as they can!
But we true patriotic Americans must keep moving forward, keep whistle blowing, keep fighting within our justice systems, keep pushing back against this tyranny!
We’ve got to see past the chaos and stay stay in point. Right versus wrong, good versus bad. Theirs is not division beyond them ( Republicans have control of all branches of government and are aligned in intention and ideology with Big Tech’s neoreactionary movement, enabling a Musk led coalition to swiftly move the government towards neoreactionary authoritarianism) versus us!
Michael, do you HONESTLY believe, think, feel we have a change as a country to
save our beloved democracy? When will lies stop working so well. I know that many folks that I admire are in for the long haul.
According to The Guardian: “the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, which has become something of a handbook for the Trump regime, recommends using private apps to conduct official business, so as to evade records-keeping laws.”
This is going on behind the scenes. You don't think he is sharing intel with Putin about Ukraine? If you believe he isn't I have a bridge I can sell you dirt cheap. He is the antithesis of the anti-Christ, anti-American, and fascist Nazi all rolled in to one.
he is antithesis of Christ i.e. he is antichrist. Fixed it for you. Everything else you wrote - yep.
Thank you! Must be my radiation exposure coming through!
It’s getting crowded under the bus.
At some point is there any penalty for all the ‘“bad faith” acts by Trump Admin? Also, Because of the sheer number of likely illegal and unconstitutional Trump directives, can this rise to the level of ‘frivolous’….. all the time and effort required to field his obviously illegal and unconstitutional is staggering. Courts are acting in good faith. Trump admin in purposely NOT.
It's so obvious that this administration is completely clueless when it comes to everything that they're doing. They're a bunch of deranged lunatics that have gone full blown One-Flew-Over-The-Cuckoo's-Nest crazy. To the point where they all need to be lobotomized STAT
DUI hire Pete is such a bozo. TFG's Cabinet of liars and low IQ losers need to be confronted big time for this fiasco. What a freak show of no-talent BS artists. Pete H trying to blame the reporter? Such ignorance and dishonesty are on full display for the world. His dreadful comments about Europeans are further evidence of his low IQ and lack of global experience. I love the response by Senator Adam Schiff. What an epic respose by an elegant man.
Alina Habba is being groomed by Trump full stop. The mental images that follow are truly stomach churning.
I don't think Trump is theone doing the ordering. Steve Miller, Bannon, maybe.
pro'ly, but then, again, they're all tRumputinists.
If this "glitch" (as Trump describes it) alarms you, please call your Congress person and Senators and express your concern. They don't answer the phone? Email! We cannot be silent. If we are silent we are complicit with this inept dismantling of our democracy.
Take them away
I wish you would start talking about the EO Trump signed related to election security. What do people need to do to ensure they can vote in the special elections this year (especially in Florida on April 1st) and the mid-turn elections next year. How can they document their vote to make sure it is counted fairly and accurately??
Yes.
it's just there are many horrors the flooding the zone hose of this reign of terror perpetrates that all things matter and some will inevitably be impossible to even address in a half an hour video.
Keep up the pressure! Go Dems! Don't let this fade away!
Gabbard and Ratcliffe perjured themselves.
Everyone (except JG) on that SignalGate should be fired/indicted/or resign.
Yep!!
Since hours, I’m trying to find the correct words to describe this horrifyingly incompetent and 24/7 lying bunch of clowns in that signal group chat who are all fully responsible for this horror show and other disasters - but it all sounds like a euphemism compared to what they do 😐
… and then I think of the heroic Ukranian's who sadly depend on these weirdos and us others in Europe dealing with mass murderer Putin and his cronies 🙈
My sentiments exactly.

Trump lied time and again in the campaign over many things to keep his ass out of jail
Now the dictatorship is evolving More attacks on law firms House leader suggests that the government get rid of federal district courts Fascist and Russian troll Trump wants to takeover the Postal Service so he can remove mail in voting Another executive order to underscore the SAVE act now in the House so that 31m voters every year can be disenfranchised Obtaining voter information so that voters can be challenged by Nazi vigilantes At least 3 federal agencies which work to ensure election integrity have been dismantled The dictator knows that if his Congressional advantage is swept away in 2026 he will be impeached again
The Nazis have to be stopped at the polling place in 2026 Vote ALL Nazis(aka Republicans) out of office GET ANGRY
WE the PEOPLE against the billionaires who want to screw the American social safety net for billions in tax cuts for the wealthy
Complacency is the enemy to holding onto democracy Protest Donate Encourage friends family neighbors to get involved
trump needs impeached and imprisoned for treason! musk needs prosecuted for being a terrorist! The rest of this administration needs charged for being traitors!!
I'm not certain why these idiots can't be held accountable. This is utterly frustrating.
he is a fucking idiot and shame on the rest of the disgusting GOP
Can you imagine if the democrats did this?????
Why ditch Hegseth but not Waltz (for starters!)? After all, Waltz was the one who added Goldberg to the chatfest/fustercluck. But I suppose Heg is the pathetic hanger-on that always would be first on the block, & they just need an adequate excuse for the chopping.
It’s our money, we absolutely want it back!
Courts gone today, House of Representatives gone tomorrow.
They almost all have names straight out of The Sopranos
You're FIRED!!!
Thank goodness they didn’t screw up - at least we know what they’re doing. Imagine all we don’t know about.
I meant: thank goodness they did screw up by allowing the journalist on the meeting.
BIG, BEAUTIFUL RUMPT SPONSORED GENOCIDE
The NAZIGOP GENOCIDE HERE IN AMERICA IS THIS and MORE:
Forced bred women die without medical care or options.
POOR people die without healthcare.
HUNGRY children to attend failing underfunded public school as if hungry humans can learn. Meanwhile, NAZIGOP KKKULT SCHOOLS GET TAX PAYER MONEY for their EQUESTRIAN AND POLO PROGRAMS.
Elderly people are condemned to homelessness.
VETERANS, who’s bodies for-profit-wars BROKE, are tossed like garbage.
THIS IS THE WAY of the NAZIGOP cosplaying the 4th REICH NAZIs.
If musk thinks the people who complain the loudest are "fraudsters", hey, buddy, don't look any further than the orange felon sitting in the White House. His complaining puts to shame any 3 year old who's mad because he didn't get a cookie. 🤬
JD Vance is stupid he glitch out on his ass nobody wants Trump regime cut or take over high tariffs in Europe Canada Panama Mexico Trump lose his project 2025
Thinking about Elon Musk will crashing our economy and will not give tax return for worker class jobs or doctors education center impeach this Trump regime very soon
Jefrey Goldberg who is this guy a journalist to work for money Trump organization cannot trust this Christianity nationalist pray in his White House Room praise Donald Trump as a Lord so Psychopath people sicko
Signal is a App is Control white house Congress MAGA spy the democrats out and scammers by Trump 40 law firm to his unlawful benefit of non profits organization by Trumps criminal organizations 2.0
How much cost the world by this sick man Donald Trump Elon Musk is toxic people destroy USA only for his interest of privat
Greenland Denmark will not agree with Trump administration take over Greenland for USA Airbase of military industrial mineral resources Öl Gas interest
by the way frankly the Judges prosecutor special counsel has step by side to had not warrant sentencing Donald Trump in prison ( (this was a great mistake) in January 9 2025 in warning by Trump guilty in his case in 34 criminal cases
By the end all this Fascist Trump cabinet Propaganda will destroy it self seriously
We need to shame our legal firms, colleges, and media stations that bow to Trump (Cheeto).
Make American Go Away (Greenland and the rest of the world)!
Please hold them accountable!
We are so grateful to you! Keep up the great work!
Once again…tRump is doing MORE damage to our international relationship.
As a former Army Intel Specialist this pisses me off MORE than I can express.....this is beyond egregious.....this is downright traitorous......THEY ALL ned to be prosecuted and thrown in prison!!
It was like a bunch of frat-boys planning a party. Sickening and SCARY!
No war plans, only Bombing plans!
Now that stupid Mike Johnson wants to defund the District Courts where tRump Regime is losing ...
Remove Pete Hegseth! His physical/psychological constitution is fully unacceptable to his professional position. He is too high risk in this position.
All the Native American lands were stolen by force
Keep this story front & Center but add every other goof each day!
And these people have 350 million peoples most private information as well!!!
You know why the Trump administration is deporting people that aren't gang memberswell let me tell you it all boils down to they don't want to go after the real criminals the real gang members because they're afraid somebody could get hurt mainly themselves
Mr. Popok your session tonight was awesome and you covered all the important points most of us are concerned about. Always enjoy listening to you.
Great show Michael! I always appreciate your intelligent insight.
Calling it Signalgate diminishes the gravity of this crisis.
This is using a toy to discuss impending military strikes. They should be in a SCIF and have a record preserved for government files. Signal erases the record.
These people cannot think critically, especially the drunk with 10-inch supremacist tattoos on his chest.
The Project 2025 regime has to have dummies running things. It's the only way it can work.
Whose turn is it to watch Musk this week??????
He has been a bit too quiet….
These are the same assholes that had a problem with Obama wearing a tan suit!
This was the automated answer to Lisas comments below from
Tillis office
You're highlighting a perceived double standard in what's considered classified information. This concern is understandable, especially when it seems inconsistent or politically motivated.
Governments often classify information to protect national security, but over-classification or selective secrecy can erode trust and raise questions about accountability.
Transparency and accountability are essential in democratic societies. It's crucial to ensure that classification decisions are made impartially, without ulterior motives, and with the primary goal of protecting genuine national security interests.
Love it Michael, thank you for your annalise and break down on these issue, keep it up...
See you next Tuesday is not the greatest sign off. Hahahaaa!
Great show, loved the bully analogy!
It has been a 💩 since day 1️⃣.
The thing that scares me, among most everything else, is that the people in this cabinet are acting like they are playing a game. No one seems to think that these are real world decisions, not one has any military experience, nor they feel like others are affected. They are in it for their perceived glory. I don’t get much sleep thinking about the actions they are taking, not realizing the real world implications. tRump thinks that the U.S. can survive alone. The world does not work that way. In order to survive we all need each other. We’re having trouble surviving the first month, how are we going to survive for four years? I’m scared.
Is it true that Judge Boasberg has some sort of business or personal relationship with Judge Roberts and Judge Kavanaugh? Read that somewhere
Popok is fabulous
Thank you so much for always being spot on, making me feel better and also at the same time making me laugh!! Greatly appreciate it!!
Going with this JG, Jennifer Graham at Faux newz

Thank you for stepping out of the signal chat bubble. What’s Elon and his team doing? Where are they?
stealin'.
Put’em on the dogsleds for transportation. Keep them in Greenland we don’t need halfassed morons
Greenland does NOT want them either!!
Please don’t say things about having to call in every week to have Social Security unless it’s true.. I can’t find anything else that says that’s a new rule. You’re scaring me Popok
For Trump to fire someone would be an admission of failure. Someone will have to fall on the proverbial sword, take the blame and resign so Trump can save what little face he has..
tRumputin does not have any single save-able thing, much less his face.
Half assed was my moms favorite comment on many subjects. The jd’s rubio’s etc are full assed 100%. Love it!
I guess all those Armageddon fearing republicans who’ve been stockpiling food and supplies to last through an attack against our democracy never really imagined it would come from the very people they knowingly supported even though at times they had to wonder if they were doing the right thing.
Man, Popok, you are on FIRE!!! 🔥. Absolutely love your podcast and am grateful for all you do!
You should check into this but I have read reports where Venezuelan lawyers have issued the release of the 200+ being held in the El Salvador prison. I have read this several times from different accounts.
OT –
In a world consumed by the voracious hunger of capitalism pushed to its absolute extreme, "The Owl and The Sword" novel unveils a dystopian landscape where wealth is the ultimate currency, and power is wielded by those who control it. Set in the near-future United States suffocating under the weight of corporate greed, the novel follows the harrowing journey of a group of unlikely heroes as they confront the insidious consequences of a society driven to the brink of collapse.
See “The Owl and the Sword” – a novel now available at Barnes & Noble only, not Amazon.

Yeah, but Waltz said "I don't know this guy"
Violent crime trends down based on demographics. As the population ages and the median average age goes up, violent crime goes down. Japan has a phenomenally low violent crime rate as a result.
Just a request. I would appreciate having a transcript because I'm not a podcast person. I prefer written material so I can keep the information afterward. Thanks.
That's a dangerous proposition Popok. But hey, I kind of agree... but we surely don't want world War III. Lol...
We like you untethered!
😂😂😂😂👍
Hey Popok!!
Can I ask a tiny bit of legal advice, it's fairly simple..
Is there any way to stop the making of a church or homeless shelter that offers luxury resources??

Americans live in an America with DBS ( Donny Bone Spurs - his mob moniker) due process. DBS says you are guilty. Concrete galoshes. Swimming with the fishes.
The leak so stupid and negligent, my paranoia and denial is playing with my head thinking it has to be a set up.
