Ep 164 — SCOTUS Discovers that Racial Profiling Is Legal Now

Date listened

Notes

Summary <p>The Supreme Court used the shadow docket to legalize racial profiling, although only Justice Kavanaugh was dumb enough to admit it out loud. It also overturned Humphrey's Executor, but this time even Kav wouldn't cop to it. Meanwhile at the White House, Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought discovers ONE WEIRD trick to steal Congress's power of the purse. And the Second Circuit confirms, Alina Habba is still very bad at her job.</p> <p> </p> <p>Links:</p> <p> </p> <p>White House Prayer Executive Order</p> <p> https://www.whitehouse.gov/america250/america-prays/</p> <p> </p> <p>SCOTUS Shadow Docket Order Trump v.
