Summer school is starting early in the faculty lounge. On this episode, Professors Epstein and Yoo have a full agenda: Are Minnesota prosecutors setting themselves up for a fall in the Derek Chauvin case? Should the Supreme Court have taken a case that could have allowed it to pare back qualified immunity? What should we make of Justice Gorsuch’s surprising turn in the LGBT discrimination case? Or Chief Justice Roberts siding with the court’s liberals in subjecting California churches to strict COVID protocols? Does President Trump have the power to stop John Bolton’s book from being released? And, finally, can we find eternal truths about intellectual property law in the battle between a couple of authors of wolf-themed erotica? At least one professor thinks so!
Hosted by John Yoo, Richard Epstein, and Troy Senik

I keep telling myself that I should never say 'This time it's different'...but...this time it's different. Every Leftist lever seems to have a 'past-the-tipping-point' influence in every organ of every society...political energy, the Academy, the MSM and the Churches. Not only here but everywhere I look. Where is there an oasis? This time it's different and I cannot come up with reasons as to how and why one ought not despair. (Depressing memo to follow.)

They talked about this article on local talk radio. Also, I think Keith Ellison has quite a bit of court time, but it was a long time ago. I'm pretty sure he was a prosecutor.

There are some transcripts now and they support the defense, clearly.
