This week brings us the biggest oral argument of the term: Trump v. Anderson, which will decide whether states can disqualify President Trump from the ballot. Your hosts recap the complicated legal issues and explore oral arguments. Zack and GianCarlo also discuss the two opinions released this week, which involve whistleblower protections and suing the government for false credit reporting. Zack interviews legendary class action lawyer Ted Frank who talks about his career and his now-famous debunking of part of Justice Jackson’s opinion in the affirmative action cases. Lastly, Zack takes the trivia hot-seat to answer questions about Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase.
