In this episode of Consider the Constitution, we explore the presidential pardon power with Professor Kim Whele from the University of Baltimore Law School. The discussion covers the historical origins of pardons from British common law, its incorporation into the U.S. Constitution, and how this power has evolved through American history through the recent pardons by both President Biden and President Trump in 2024-2025.

In one of its most significant separation of powers opinions, the U.S. Supreme Court decided Humphrey's Executor v. United States 87 years ago, in which it held that President Roosevelt's authority to remove a commissioner that his predecessor nominated and the Senate confirmed to the Federal Trade Commission was not “illimitable” under the Constitution. The Court held that the President's discretion to remove the commissioner based on his differing policy views was bounded by the Federal Trade Commission Act's limitation on removal only for "inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office." Humphrey's continues to have significant implications today, in cases like FTC v. Walmart (N.D. Ill.) where Walmart has argued that by virtue of Humphrey's, the “quintessentially executive law-enforcement power” that the FTC has under its authorizing statute is unconstitutional because its commissioners are not removable at will by the President. This teleforum will analyze the contemporary implications of Humphrey's and its continuing vitality in U.S. Supreme Court's administrative law jurisprudence.Featuring:--Gregory Dolin, Senior Litigation Counsel, New Civil Liberties Alliance--Daniel Z.

Aviva Wolmer graduated from the University of Baltimore Law School with plans to become a criminal defense attorney for juveniles. What she thought would be a brief return to her family's business culminated in her serving as CEO. When she became CEO of Pacesetter, she immediately joined a Vistage group to get the support and guidance of people in similar positions. For six years, she relied on the wisdom of the group to help her process complex issues and make tough decisions on topics such as talent, M&A, and change management. Now as a Vistage Chair herself, Aviva gets to create an environment that brings diverse perspectives and experiences to CEOs who have a desire to grow and scale their businesses or achieve their visions faster. Aviva strives to inspire others to become the leaders they can be through helping them envision their goals and dreams (personal and professional) and empowering them with the clarity and accountability they need to achieve them. Show Notes: In this episode, Aviva Wolmer shares her journey from law school graduate, to CEO, to Vistage Chair. She talks about how important it is for leaders to listen to their employees, overcoming the imposter syndrome, and the benefits of belonging to a peer group.

This week we're going to talk about families, and a uniquely American hypocrisy surrounding them. On the one hand, politicians are always talking about supporting strong, nuclear families, and in some ways, we do. We give tax breaks to people who get married and have children. Kids eat free at Denny's on Tuesdays. Yet, also in America, government officials at the federal, state, and local levels are tearing families apart by the thousands under the cover of our laws. For example, in the Trump administration, the Department of Homeland Security forcibly separated more than 5,000 migrant parents from their children – some as young as 4 months old – under Trump's “zero tolerance” border policy. To this day, a thousand children and maybe more are yet to be reunited with their families. They remain stranded and alone. Candidate Joe Biden had called the policy “criminal. But in December the Justice Department walked away from settlement talks with lawyers representing those families. And immigration enforcement isn't the only way we destroy families. The criminal justice system and the child welfare system do it too, in astonishing numbers, and usually to the most vulnerable among us. To discuss this double-standard–propping up some families while destroying others–the and the continued trauma and ongoing battle of separated families is Lee Gelernt, deputy director of the ACLU's Immigrants' Rights Project, who has steered the border separation litigation from the beginning. Joining him is Shanta Trivedi, assistant professor at the University of Baltimore Law School and faculty director of the Meyerhoff Center for Families, Children, and the Courts – a foremost expert on the law around family trauma.

Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Peter Bayer, a Professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas William S. Boyd School of Law, to discuss morality, the Impeachment, and the Constitution.   In today’s episode, Aaron and Peter delve deep into an important and interesting conversation about liberty, fundamental fairness, Due Process and more; throughout, they specifically apply these ideas and their principles to President Trump, and his recent impeachment.  Peter and Aaron have a philosophical discussion on Kant and his categorical imperatives, Deontology, Originalism, and natural rights. The two debate what the Framers of the Constitution intended, they discuss the Magna Carta, natural law, the Supreme Court decision in Obergefell, legal and political theorists such as Blackstone and Locke, and examine Peter’s extensive article on these issues, “Deontological Originalism: Moral Truth, Liberty, and Constitutional ‘Due Process.’”   What is the role of the Constitution? What are its meanings? What is and is not considered moral? And how do we/should we think of ‘the greater good?”   An expert in jurisprudence, Peter earned both his J.D. and his M.A. in Sociology from NYU. His article on today’s subject matter is a legal commentary on the principles of Originalism and Deontology, arguing that given the principles of Originalism, the Constitution mandates that any governmental act is unconstitutional if it is immoral.  Peter refers to these ideas as “Deontological Originalism,” asserting that both the Founders of this Nation and the Reconstruction Congress believed in natural rights that derived from principles of natural law. Aaron and Peter contemplate this through the lens of 2019 and the Impeachment, considering Trump’s definitions of “fair” and drawing comparisons to Fraud’s theory of the ID.   After studying at NYU, Professor Bayer earned his LL.M. from Harvard Law. Before his time at Boyd, Peter served as Assistant Professor and Director of the Legal Research, Analysis, and Writing Program at St. Tomas University School of Law in Miami. In addition to teaching stints at Boston College Law School, the University of Baltimore Law School, and the University of Miami School of Law, Peter worked as Senior Patient Advocate for Quantum Health Resources, Trial Attorney for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and Staff Attorney for the Center for Advocacy, Research, and Planning. He also clerked for the Honorable Clifford Scott Green, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Professor Bayer teaches Lawyering Process, Jurisprudence, Administrative Law, Employment Discrimination, and Judicial Writing.     To check out Professor Bayer’s article on Deontological Originalism, please click here.

Last August, the New York Times began a groundbreaking series, The 1619 Project, a series of podcasts and an entire edition of the Times Magazine dedicated to the often untold history of the slave trade. The scars of slavery were central to the founding of our Republic, and the impact of slavery’s legacy has extended to all areas of the American experiment, from economic inequality to mass incarceration, to education, health care, and arts and culture.This coming weekend, a symposium at the University of Baltimore Law School will explore the impact of slavery on the criminal justice system in America. Today on Midday, a conversation with two of the legal scholars who will be presenting at the symposium, which is entitled “400 Years: Slavery and the Criminal Justice System.” We begin with Michael Higginbotham, the Joseph Curtis Professor of Law at the University of Baltimore School of Law and the author of Ghosts of Jim Crow: Ending Racism in Post-Racial America. Then, Tom speaks with Roy L. Austin, a former Department of Justice and Obama Administration official who is delivering one of the keynote addresses next weekend. Mr. Austin joins us on the line from Washington, D.C.The Symposium runs from 2:00 to 6:30pm on Friday, November 15 and from 9:45am to 3:30pm on Saturday, November 16. The event is free and open to the public. Listeners can register to attend either or both days of the symposium at law.ubalt.edu.

Big mergers in the defense contractor field often make the defense acquisition community nervous. Mergers can reduce competition. They can change the companies priorities.

Giving your DNA to one of the many commercial DNA kit companies, the ones who tell you about your family tree or your hidden health risks, sounds innocent enough, right?  But is it?   Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Natalie Ram, an assistant professor of law at the University of Baltimore Law School, to discuss these privacy issues. An expert in biotechnology, bioethics, and innovation policy, Natalie offers stern warnings to those who give away their DNA to companies like 23 and Me and Ancestry.com.    When you give away your DNA to one of these commercial, at-home, DNA testing services, you allow them, to share not only your own DNA with all those who participate in the databases, but the DNA of your close family members, including your children.  Law enforcement then can – and in some very high profile criminal investigations already has – use that data to obtain evidence that can be used to solve crimes.  The law is evolving in this cutting-edge industry, and, Natalie explains, it is crucial to understand constitutional rights that may be implicated.   As many as 60% of Americans may already be identifiable through these databases because the technology has become sophisticated enough to link a person’s immediate family members as well as distant family, like third or fourth cousins.  Join in on the conversation to learn more and decide for yourself whether you want to take the risks involved in this seemingly innocent activity.   Host: Aaron Freiwald Guest: Natalie Ram   Follow Good Law | Bad Law: YouTube: Good Law | Bad Law Instagram: @GoodLawBadLaw Website: https://www.law-podcast.com

On this Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday -- marking what would have been the slain civil rights leader's 89th birthday -- we are talking about Dr. King’s legacy, and how the movement for racial and economic equality and justice is positioned moving forward.This year, we’ll also mark the 50th anniversary of Dr. King’s assassination, as well as the Fair Housing Act, which President Lyndon Johnson signed into law just a week after King’s death, as cities across the country were enveloped in violence.Violence in many forms remains part of the American landscape, and with the political rise of Donald Trump, violent and abrasive rhetoric now permeate public discourse to a heart-breaking degree, from Charlottesville to the Oval Office. Joining Tom on this MLK Day edition is a panel of guests with keen insights into the long, continuing quest for racial justice in America:DeRay Mckesson is a civil rights activist and the host of a podcast called Pod Save the People; Michael Higgenbotham teaches at the University of Baltimore Law School.

We begin with a look at the Baltimore Police Department's trial board hearing that's considering, in the first of three administrative proceedings, whether disciplinary action should be taken against Officer Cesar Goodson, Jr., one of six officers indicted in the arrest and death of Freddie Gray in 2015. He drove the van that transported Mr. Gray. Goodson was acquitted of the charges, including one for second-degree ----depraved heart---- murder, brought against him by State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby. But last week and again today (Monday), he sat before a three-member panel engaged by the Police Department to determine whether or not his actions merit disciplinary action.Of the six police officers originally charged in the Freddie Gray case, just three face trial board hearings: Goodson, Lt. Brian Rice (tried and acquitted) and Sgt. Alicia White (charges dropped). Trial boards for Rice and White are scheduled for late November and mid-December. And Officers Garrett Miller (charges dropped) and Edward Nero (tried and acquitted) chose to receive one-week suspensions rather than face the trial boards. A sixth officer involved in the Freddie Gray case, William Porter (charges dropped) faces no discipline.David Jaros is on the faculty of the University of Baltimore Law School. Debbie Hines is an attorney in private practice in Washington. They both paid very close attention to Officer Goodson’s criminal trial last year. They join Tom in the studio to talk about what the trial board hearings say about the ability of the Baltimore Police department to police itself, and whether these disciplinary proceedings can restore community trust in the force.

Arbitrariness and the Constitution - Interview with University of Baltimore Law School professor John Bessler on arbitrariness and the history of the death penalty.

The primary purpose of the Constitution is to limit Congress. There is no separation of church and state. The Second Amendment allows citizens to make threats against the government. These are a few of the myths about our Constitution put forth by a well-organized, well-funded right wing in an effort to cripple the right of We the People to govern ourselves. Garrett Epps provides the tools citizens need to fight back against the flood of constitutional nonsense. In terms every citizen can understand, he tackles ten of the most prevalent myths, providing a clear grasp of the Constitution and the government it established.Garrett Epps teaches constitutional law at the University of Baltimore Law School; he is a regular contributor on legal issues to Atlantic.com and The American Prospect. Recorded On: Thursday, January 10, 2013
