Weekend Special: The Oath and the Office
About this episode
John Fugelsang and Professor Corey Brettschneider discuss the implications of Trump's executive orders and recent legal controversies.
Here's a special presentation of John's OTHER podcast - The Oath and the Office . Trump already lost on birthright citizenship. Now he is testing the limits of constitutional law with two narrower executive orders. John and Professor Corey Brettschneider explain the high-stakes game of chicken underway: can a president just keep pushing after the courts and the Constitution say no? Plus, they give a rapid-fire breakdown of recent legal chaos: Vanity Plates: A bizarre but critical free speech fight. DOJ Takeover: Todd Blanche officially steps in as Attorney General after a bruising confirmation fight over Trump, DOJ independence, and a $1.8 billion slush fund. The $400 Million Ballroom: A court abruptly blocks Trump’s massive White House construction plan. Targeting Fauci: Senate Republicans vote to hold Anthony Fauci in contempt.
