Podcast appearances and mentions of Brian C Kalt

This podcast covers what is probably the most intriguing., thought provoking and interesting legal paper ever written about Yellowstone Park which was penned by attorney Brian C. Kalt called The Perfect Crime. I recently interviewed Brian in a Zoom call you get to hear excerpts directly from the author himself in regards to just how it is theoretically possible to commit a litany of crimes, including murder, in a certain section of Yellowstone Park and get away with it-SCOTT FREE!And we discuss the loopholes in our laws and Constitution that have created that loophole and what needs to happen to close it. I finish out the podcast with a complete reading of The Perfect Crime verbatim for you guys so you don't have to look it up yourselves and can listen to my reading while your driving down the road.  It's a very thought provoking concept that actually exists in a remote portion of Yellowstone Park and  I think it is just a matter of tome before someone puts it to the test.

The Constitution contains two possible forms of presidential removal outside of election, one is the much-discussed impeachment process. The other is the 25th Amendment's fourth section. We discuss 25 Section 4 with Professor Brian C. Kalt, Professor of Law & Harold Norris Faculty Scholar at Michigan State University, including how the amendment works, its uses and its common misunderstanding by the public and Hollywood writers.

According to the U.S. Constitution, the President of the United States has the power to pardon pretty much anyone. This is a broad, sweeping power that past administrations have used in a variety of ways, some more controversial than others. However, in recent years scholars, voters and politicians have wrestled with a strange question: Can a standing President pardon him- or herself? In today's episode, the guys speak with Professor Brian C. Kalt, the author of “Constitutional Cliffhangers: A Legal Guide for Presidents and Their Enemies” to learn about the history and future of pardons -- and what to expect if a standing President attempts to pardon themselves.

According to Article II, Section 2, of the United States Constitution, the president "shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment.” With the recent investigation into President Trump’s possible collusion with Russia by special counsel Robert Mueller, talk of presidential pardon power has surfaced. So the question remains: if President Trump were to be ever found guilty of a federal crime, could he pardon himself? On Lawyer 2 Lawyer, host Bob Ambrogi joins guests Brian C. Kalt, professor of law and the Harold Norris Faculty Scholar at Michigan State University College of Law, and Robert L. Deitz, professor of Public Policy at the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University, as they take an inside look at presidential pardon power. They discuss limits, take a look back at history, look ahead to see how this all will unfold, and get a deeper look into a possible presidential self-pardon and repercussions. Brian C. Kalt is professor of law and the Harold Norris Faculty Scholar at Michigan State University College of Law. Robert L. Deitz is professor of Public Policy at the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University. Special thanks to our sponsors, Clio and Litera.
