California Dreamin’

The faculty lounge moves west, as Professors Richard Epstein and John Yoo both check in from sunny California (while resident cat-herder Troy Senik stays behind in frigid New York). On this installment: Did the Supreme Court’s parsing of the vaccine mandate pass muster? Have we figured out Justices Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett yet? Can Donald Trump be held civilly liable for the January 6 riots? Did the Supreme Court sell the former president’s claims of executive privilege short? Is reforming the Electoral Count Act the most essential element of election reform? Is higher education a cartel (there’s a split in the faculty lounge)? And why did a Georgia sheriff trying to keep trick-or-treaters safe fall afoul of the First Amendment?

    This is the Trump side of the logistics and rules for security on January 6th,

    Including the part where Prof. Epstein smugly repeats his unsupported smug suggestion of January 2017 et seq. that President Trump should have resigned because of Prof. Epstein’s unsupported smug suggestion?

    The subject of tort damages causation notwithstanding, Prof. Epstein properly considers himself an authority on the protection of intellectual property.  No one in American history has so aggressively protected the intellectual property of American traders against the theft of that intellectual property by the Communist Chinese, than did President Donald Trump for the entirety of his term.

    And yet Prof. Epstein smugly persists in repeating his unsupported smug suggestion that President Trump ought to have resigned.

    It’s been nearly 3 months since we have had a Law Talk episode.  When can we expect it to return?
