SCOTUS Smacks Down Asset Seizures, Acosta Under Fire, House Race Do-Over

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America welcome a unanimous Supreme Court decision forbidding states from seizing assets in excess of the penalties a convicted person faces. They also unload on Labor Secretary Alex Acosta as a judge rips the former U.S. Attorney for striking a 2007 plea bargain with Jeffrey Epstein and not sharing those deliberations with the accusers at the request of Epstein's lawyers. They react to North Carolina officials ordering a do-over in a North Carolina congressional race after a shady absentee ballot strategy by the Republican campaign. And they react to the Robert Kraft news, which broke as they were recording.
