Also, brought to you by ForkFest, the annual decentralized libertarian camping event that happens around PorcFest, with no tickets and no one in charge. Also, brought to you by all of my dozens of supporters. WHAT'S RUSTLING MY JIMMIES In its infinite wisdom, as we've talked about on this show, the government, specifically the FDA, is working on banning flavored vapes because of some disease that has spread up around vaping. OIh, and of course, they are doing it for the children. But, as we've talked about, it was highly likely that the vapes in questions that were causing deaths and diseases were for sure black market THC vapes, and not white market nicotine vapes. WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In indoctrination centers news, a Vilonia, Arkansas family wants answers after seeing video of an assistant principal yanking their son off the school bus and hitting the boy's head on the roof. In what the actual f*** news, a Michigan man underpaid his property taxes by $8.41, so the county stole his property, sold it, and kept 100% of the profits. In bad boys news, Ridgetop, Tenessee Police Chief Bryan Morris submitted his resignation on Friday. The Tennessee city is now without a police force and it's all due to a disagreement over illegal ticket quotas. In more bad boys news, Jeff Payne, the former Salt Lake City police officer who handcuffed nurse Alex Wubbels, has been hired to work at the Weber County jail, a human resources employee confirmed Wednesday. If you recall, Nurse Wubbels was protecting her patient from an unlawful blood draw by the cop at the time. In legal murder news, new DNA evidence has come to light that will likely exonerate a Texas death row inmate, but the government won't test it. In heroes news, the treatment of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who is facing the threat of extradition from Britain to the US on espionage charges, is putting his life "at risk", an independent UN rights expert said Friday. ASK ME ANYTHING I answer your questions on the college admissions scandal, the alternate history genre, waking up, and F***, Marry, Kill, Trump - Obama - Pelosi.

  "Give me a lawyer dog" apparently refers to some strange animal only found in Louisiana that has four legs, wags it's tail, and has a law degree. What's in the News with stories on prostitution, a Catalonia update, my October Contest Winners, a nurse Wubbels update, Trump's Twitter, DUI on a horse, and free-market vs. government. Also, and Ancap App segment with updates on Open Bazaar and Signal. And, a Burning Books segment on Chasing the Scream by Johann Hari. This episode is brought to you by Tom Woods's Liberty Classroom, helping you to become a smarter and more informed libertarian than ever before, for just 24 cents a day. WHAT'S RUSTLING MY JIMMIES In one of the most egregious examples of justice being denied I have ever seen, this one really rustled my jimmies.  The courts in Louisiana have shown utter disregard for reason, logic, rationality, and common sense in the case of Warren Demesme, who was 22 at the time of his arrest.  Warren was being interrogated by New Orleans police in October 2015 after two young girls claimed he had sexually assaulted them. It was the second time he'd been brought in, and he was getting a little frustrated, court records show. He had repeatedly denied the crime. Finally, Demesme told the detectives: “This is how I feel, if y'all think I did it, I know that I didn't do it so why don't you just give me a lawyer dog 'cause this is not what's up.” Sometime after this, Demesme made admissions to the crime, prosecutors said, and was charged with aggravated rape and indecent behavior with a juvenile. He is being held in the Orleans Parish jail awaiting trial. The punctuation and spelling, arguably critical to Demesme's use of the nickname “dog,” was provided by the Orleans Parish District Attorney's office in a brief, and then adopted by Louisiana Associate Supreme Court Justice Scott J. Crichton. The sentence in question is officially in the brief as "give me my lawyer dog" with no comma between the words lawyer and dog and with the word dog spelled d-o-g. WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In the war on prostitution news, a federal court heard arguments recently challenging California's criminalization of prostitution, in a case that could have implications for sex work laws across the nation. In a Catalan independence update, Spanish officials moved in to arrest the Catalan government's leadership last week. President Carles Puigdemont and a number of members of the cabinet fled to Brussels, Belgium. Spain then issued an international arrest warrant for Puigdemont and a Madrid High Court judge asked Belgium to arrest Puigdemont and four associates after they ignored a court order to return to Spain. In a nurse Wubbels update, as I expected, the taxpayers are the losers in this situation. University Hospital nurse Alex Wubbels has agreed to a $500,000 payment to settle a dispute over her arrest by a Salt Lake City police officer after she barred him from drawing blood from an unconscious patient, her attorney said Tuesday. In national security news, apparently, a rogue employee of Twitter shut down President Trump's account on his last day on the job. The deactivation Thursday sparked deep and troubling questions about who has access to the president's personal account, @realDonaldTrump, and the power that access holds. In it's about your safety news, a 53-year-old woman was arrested and charged with driving drunk while riding a horse down a busy Florida highway -- and yes, you hear that shit that right. In free markets for the win news, Tesla has used its solar panels and batteries to restore reliable electricity at San Juan's Hospital del Niño (Children's Hospital), in what company founder Elon Musk calls "the first of many solar+battery Tesla projects going live in Puerto Rico." And, finally, in some show news, we've created a Facebook group for Pax Libertas Productions for all of you to interact with all of the PLP podcast hosts. I'm in there, of course, as is Brian McQuade from Resist the Empire, and Scott McDonald and Adam Brown from Ancap Barber Shop. ANCAP APPS Two apps that have been featured in this segment in the past have had some significant updates that I want to let you know about. First, OpenBazaar, the free online marketplace with no platform fees and no restrictions has just released their 2.0 version. OpenBazaar is a different way to do online commerce. It's a peer to peer application that doesn't require middlemen, which means no fees & no restrictions. OpenBazaar connects people directly via a peer to peer network. Data is distributed across the network instead of storing it in a central database. Version 2.0 is a completely new network, separate from the earlier version of the OpenBazaar network. They learned a lot from the 1.0 version, and with this information, they've made the new OpenBazaar one of the most user-friendly decentralized applications ever built. They've added lots of highly requested features as well. The other product with an update is one that I use almost daily. The Signal encrypted messaging app now has a full desktop app for Mac, Windows, and Linux. The previously had a Google Chrome app for the product that they'be now replaced with the full desktop version, so if you previously had the Chrome version, you will need to install this new desktop version. BURNING BOOKS I heard about this book, Chasing the Scream: The First and Last Days of the War on Drugs, when the author, Johann Hari, was on episode 86 of Felony Friday with John Odermatt as part of the Lions of Liberty network. A few weeks later, it was on sale on Audible for $4.99, so I picked it up and listened to it. 

Trump has used his powers for good, finally, but has he gone far enough? What's in the News with stories on healthcare rationing in the U.K., officer Payne is fired, TSA security theater, FDA condom regulations, bump stock ban coming, and the NYPD needs IT help. And, a Statists Gonna State segment on real slavery happening in America today. This episode is brought to you by Tom Woods's Liberty Classroom, helping you to become a smarter and more informed libertarian than ever before, for just 24 cents a day. WHAT'S RUSTLING MY JIMMIES Love him or hate him, Trump is not a libertarian and never will be, no matter how many libertarians supported him. However, even presidents like Bush, Obama, and Trump can accidentally do things that are good for the free market and for people. Such is the case with Trump on healthcare. Trump has signed an executive order last week making some major and sweeping changes to health care in this country. Apparently, he took lessons from Obama on how to dictate health care through executive order, but at least Trump's order is better for the free market. Let's talk about what this executive order actually does and see what those implications are. WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In speaking of healthcare news, to save money, the U.K. single-payer National Health Service recently announced it will ban obese patients from many surgeries for up to a year. Such rationing is apparently standard in single-payer healthcare systems. In unicorn news, the unusual has happened, a police officer was actually fired for his actions on duty. Salt Lake City Police Chief Mike Brown has fired one officer and demoted another in response to the July 26 arrest of University Hospital nurse Alex Wubbels, according to records obtained by The Salt Lake Tribune. In security theater news, the Transportation Security Administration is enacting some new programs by further clamping down at airport security checkpoints around the U.S. In government regulates everything news, the Food and Drug Administration apparently controls even the size of condoms in this country. In never let a tragedy go to waste news, a bipartisan measure that would ban bump stocks was introduced in the US House of Representatives by 10 members of the Republican party and 10 members of the Democrat party. In what the actual f* news, the New York Police Department apparently does not back up its evidence database, at all.  STATISTS GONNA STATE Judges around the country are sentencing defendants to slavery instead of prison under the guise of rehab. And, they're getting away with it, even though slavery is still illegal in this country, thanks to corruption, cronyism, and politics.   

On July 26th, a nurse in Utah named Alex Wubbels was arrested for refusing to draw blood from an unconscious patient who had suffered severe injuries from a car crash. Wubbels argued that she wouldn't allow the blood to be drawn unless the man was under arrest or there was a police warrant. This was despite the fact that Section 1.3 of the Utah Commercial Driver’s License Handbook states that “If you operate a CMV [commercial vehicle], you shall be deemed to have given your consent to alcohol testing.” The video of the incident sparked a national outcry. In this week’s podcast segment, Jim and Doug discuss the balance between enforcing the law and falling prey to the “contempt of cop” trap some subjects will set.

Alex Wubbels gets a little justice, Napa and Sonoma hospitals get evacuated, and Tom surprises Z with the #WineSnobChallenge — it's Incident Report 102, deal with it.

On episode 125 of the Nurse Keith Show nursing podcast, Nurse Keith discusses the recent case of a Utah nurse (Alex Wubbels) who stood her ground with law enforcement. Nurses must frequently stick to their guns in very difficult circumstances -- what does this mean for you and your nursing career?  Keith is a holistic career coach for nurses, as well as a professional podcaster, published author, inspiring speaker, and successful nurse entrepreneur.

Nurses can be heroes too, especially when they stand up to bad cops. What's in the News with stories on the MDMA as medicine, North Korea threats, bullying homeschool families, exposed security clearances, seizure of guns, and Comey on Clinton. And Yet Another Bad Cop segment with four stories of cops who go above and beyond to lie, cheat, steal, assault, and attempt murder. This episode is brought to you by Tom Woods's Liberty Classroom, helping you to become a smarter and more informed libertarian than ever before, for just 24 cents a day. WHAT'S RUSTLING MY JIMMIES Some heroes don't wear capes. Some of them wear scrubs and go to work every day like the rest of us. Alex Wubbels, the nurse assaulted by Salt Lake City Police Detective Jeff Payne, is one such hero.  In case you've lived under a rock the last couple of weeks, you've heard this story. William Gray was driving a semi truck in Northern Utah when he was struck head-on by a man who veered into oncoming traffic on a highway. The driver who veered into Gray died in the crash. He was fleeing from the police in a high-speed chase after a call about an erratic driver. In order to cover their ass, the cops wanted to try to pin this on the completely innocent Gray who was just driving and minding his own business, so they went to the hospital to try to get a blood draw from Gray, hoping he has some substances in his system. This would, I'm sure they thought, take the heat off of them for starting a high-speed chase that lead to the death of one man and another unconscious.  WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In drug war news, the Food and Drug Administration has approved MDMA, better known as ecstasy, as a "breakthrough therapy." The designation should speed MDMA's approval as a prescription medicine, which could happen as soon as 2021. In the hermit kingdom news, after Kim Jong-un appeared to blink in the prick waving contest with Trump a couple of weeks ago, North Korea has proven that Trump doesn't intimidate them. North Korea test fired a missile over the island of Japan, landing the missile safely in the ocean. Just a few days after the missiles fired over Japan, North Korea apparently tested a nuclear weapon that was picked up by seismic stations all over the world, and this was their biggest nuclear device test to date. The US Geological Survey recorded a 6.3-magnitude earthquake that was man made.  In homeschool news, a homeschooling family in Kentucky decided to use the solar eclipse as a learning experience for their children and did this as part of their school time. This action was allegedly reported by an unknown source to the local school district, which in turn sent an official to question the family about their field trip. In watching the watchers news, thousands of files containing the personal information and expertise of Americans with classified and up to Top Secret security clearances have been exposed by an unsecured Amazon server, potentially for most of the year. In unfit to exist news, the U.S. Virgin Islands Gov. Kenneth Mapp signed an emergency order allowing the seizure of private guns, ammunition, explosives and property the National Guard may need to respond to Hurricane Irma.  In more Second Amendment news, Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback signed what is being called the nation's most pro-Second Amendment law. The Second Amendment Protection Act exempts all guns that were made in Kansas and have not left the state from all federal gun control laws. In they investigated themselves news, former FBI Director James Comey drafted a statement exonerating former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for running her government emails through a private email server before completing the investigation, according to two Republican senators. Comey prepared the draft exoneration for Clinton before conducting interviews with top Clinton aides who were offered immunity for their cooperation. AND YET ANOTHER BAD COP Some episodes there are only one or two bad cop stories to go over. This time there are way more than I could do in just the news so I wanted to bring back this segment to really dive into these, on top of the one that was rustling my jimmies this week. First on the list is an article about police in Massachusetts. Three years ago they seized more than $107,000 from a married couple who they suspected of a crime. But now, three years later, no charges have ever been filed and the couple has still not been returned their money, which they claim was earned legally. In 2013, Proano was caught on a police dashboard camera opening fire on a stolen car just seconds after arriving at the scene of a crime. He continued shooting as the car attempted to back away from him. Two teens in the car were injured. Not wanting to be left out, Officer Shaun Jergens assaulted a man having a medical emergency. And, finally, in another attempted murder by cop, a newspaper photographer was shot by a deputy after the deputy mistook the man's camera for a weapon, reports say. 

This week's "breaking news" episode covers three of the biggest stories trending at the moment:  the Utah nurse who was arrested for standing up for her patient's rights; Trump's repeal of DACA; and churches suing for relief funds. In the wake of hurricanes Harvey and Irma, the guys encourage you to donate to either (or both) the Red Cross and/or Habitat for Humanity's hurricane relief efforts. We begin with the story behind the arrest of Alex Wubbels, the Utah nurse who refused to take and turn over her patient's blood to the police. In the main segment, Andrew walks us through President Trump's directive to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.  Does Andrew actually agree with a legal opinion authored by Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III??  Listen and find out! Next, Breakin' Down the Law continues with everything you wanted to know about churches suing for funds allocated to disaster relief and recovery.  Is the Friendly Atheist right when he says such a case is legally distinct from the precedent set by Trinity Lutheran v. Comer? Finally, we end with a fiendishly difficult and all-new Thomas Takes the Bar Exam Question #40 about jury instructions regarding the presumption of intent.  Remember that you can play along with #TTTBE by retweeting our episode Tweet along with your guess.  We'll release the answer on next Tuesday's episode along with our favorite entry! Recent Appearances None.  Have us on your show! Show Notes & Links This is a link to the Red Cross's page for donations for hurricane relief; and here is a link to Habitat for Humanity's hurricane relief efforts. Here is where you can find the recently-created Opening Arguments Facebook Community, which you should definitely join! You can read the relevant Supreme Court opinion, Birchfield v. North Dakota, 136 S.Ct. 2160 (2016), that Nurse Wubbels relied upon in refusing to take and turn over blood to the police. The guys first discussed illegal immigration on Episode 52 and then again in Episode 67. This is the original June 15, 2012 Napolitano DHS memo that became DACA. This the text of the recent memorandum by Attorney General Sessions rescinding DACA. The DAPA case relied upon by Sessions is Texas v. US, 86 F.Supp.3d 591 (S.D. Tex. 2015), aff'd, 809 F.3d 134 (5th Cir. 2015). We first analyzed the Trinity Lutheran v. Comer decision (along with Andrew Seidel) in Episode 82. Previously, we discussed Trinity Lutheran while the case was still pending during our three-part “You Be The Supreme Court” series:  Part 1 (Episode 14) is available here, Part 2 is available here, and Part 3 is available here. This is the Friendly Atheist article discussed during the "C" segment attempting to distinguish Trinity Lutheran v. Comer.

​Today’s podcast is a little brief but covers and important topic: blood draws and patient’s rights.  This comes up due to a recent incident in Salt Lake City at University Hospital when a detective of the Salt Lake City Police Department arrested Alex Wubbels, a nurse there, when the officer attempted to collect blood for testing from an unconscious patient.

Charlamagne awards Utah Officer Jeff Payne Donkey of the Day for assaulting and unlawfully arresting a nurse for following her hospital protocol.
