This conversation delves into the foundational aspects of constitutional law, focusing on the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the 14th Amendment. It explores their historical significance, judicial interpretations, and real-world applications, emphasizing the importance of understanding these concepts for aspiring legal professionals. The discussion also highlights the evolving nature of individual rights and the complexities of judicial scrutiny in contemporary legal challenges.Imagine a world where the government could seize your home without notice or where laws discriminated based on race or gender. These scenarios, reminiscent of dystopian fiction, highlight the importance of constitutional safeguards in American legal history. The Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses are pivotal in protecting against such injustices.Historical Origins and Judicial Interpretation: The 14th Amendment, adopted post-Civil War, reshaped the relationship between individuals and the government. It aimed to secure rights for freed slaves, but its impact extends far beyond, forming the basis for landmark decisions like Brown v. Board of Education and Obergefell v. Hodges. The Due Process Clause, appearing in both the Fifth and 14th Amendments, ensures fairness from both federal and state governments. It has been interpreted expansively, covering life, liberty, and property in ways that affect modern administrative law.Procedural vs. Substantive Due Process: Procedural due process guarantees fair procedures when the government acts against an individual, asking "what process is due?" Landmark cases like Goldberg v. Kelly and Matthews v. Eldridge illustrate the evolving standards of procedural fairness. Substantive due process, on the other hand, protects fundamental rights not explicitly listed in the Constitution, challenging the inherent fairness of laws themselves. This concept has been pivotal in cases like Griswold v. Connecticut and Roe v. Wade.Equal Protection Clause: The Equal Protection Clause promises that no state shall deny any person equal protection under the law. It focuses on who the government treats differently and ensures that any classification is justified by strong constitutional reasons. The clause has been central in cases involving race, gender, and sexual orientation, applying varying levels of judicial scrutiny to assess the fairness of laws.The Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses are dynamic doctrines, continually shaped by societal challenges and judicial interpretation. They not only protect established rights but also provide a framework for future generations to challenge discrimination and assert evolving understandings of liberty. As society changes, these clauses remain vital in demanding justice and fairness.TakeawaysThe fight against injustices is essential to American legal history.The 14th Amendment reshaped the relationship between individuals and government.Due Process and Equal Protection are critical for individual rights.Understanding procedural vs. substantive due process is vital for legal analysis.The Equal Protection Clause prevents purposeful discrimination.Judicial scrutiny varies based on the classification involved.Rational basis review is the most lenient standard for government actions.Strict scrutiny applies to laws affecting suspect classes or fundamental rights.The right to travel encompasses multiple distinct rights.Felony disenfranchisement policies are subject to ongoing debate and reform.Constitutional Law, Due Process, Equal Protection, 14th Amendment, Judicial Scrutiny, Individual Rights, Legal History, Civil Rights, American Law, Supreme Court

Film writer and critic Brendan Hodges joins to discuss Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan, a self-proclaimed love letter to the filmmaker's WWII veteran father and all the fighting men of the Second World War. Visceral, upsetting, and deeply conflicted, the film formally disavows many of Spielberg's more populist tendencies as director and creates a tension between the valorizing, mythic tone of its war movie forebears and its own aims as a subjective, hyperreal chronicle of boots-on-the-ground combat. Is the film a viscious, jingoistic piece of propaganda? A formally exhilarating but ideologically dubious piece of late 20th century moviemaking? Or is it, as our guest asserts, one of the most misunderstood texts in popular American cinema? We begin by reflecting on Saving Private Ryan's legacy and cultural context, its place as a cultural behemoth and its application as a load-bearing hagiography for American militarism that found new purchase in a post-9/11 context just a few years after its release. Then, we examine Spielberg's formalism, how images contradict text within the film, and what to make of the movie's propositions on its own terms. Finally, we address the movie's evocation of difficult realities of warfare, and ask if the film meets the mandate and responsibility of such images; how history and contemporary context color our interpretations, and what value there is in continuing to return to such questions in our current moment.

Pastor Jordan wraps up and closes our message series "Static"There are three predominate voices we all hear in life. The voice of the Lord, The voice of self, and The voice of the enemy. 1 Kings 19:7–18 NLT We see Elijah trauma dumping on God all his own thoughts about being all alone and forsaken. His own voice. Then God begins to reveal His voice.
Thank you for joining us for Christian Faith Center's Sermon of the week. This message is from our Nampa Location. Pastor Jordan starts a new message series "Homecoming"Luke 15:11-20 NLTMost of the time when Jesus tells a story with two people, He is typically trying to contrast pictures. In this story there are two sons. This is the best picture of repentance we see in the scripture! Until we truly understand repentance, a Homecoming is hard!
This Day in Legal History: Certiorari Granted in WindsorOn September 11, 2012, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a petition for certiorari in United States v. Windsor, setting the stage for one of the most consequential civil rights decisions of the decade. The case challenged Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which defined marriage for federal purposes as between one man and one woman. Edith Windsor, the plaintiff, had been legally married to her same-sex partner, Thea Spyer, in Canada. When Spyer died, Windsor was denied the federal estate tax exemption for surviving spouses, resulting in a tax bill exceeding $350,000.Windsor argued that DOMA violated the Fifth Amendment's guarantee of equal protection as applied to the federal government. The Obama administration, though initially defending DOMA, reversed course and declined to continue doing so, prompting the Bipartisan Legal Advisory Group (BLAG) of the House of Representatives to intervene. The DOJ's September 11 petition reflected the administration's desire to have the Supreme Court resolve the constitutional question as quickly as possible.In 2013, the Supreme Court ruled 5–4 in favor of Windsor, striking down Section 3 of DOMA as unconstitutional. Justice Kennedy, writing for the majority, held that the federal government could not single out same-sex marriages for unequal treatment under the law. The ruling granted same-sex couples access to hundreds of federal benefits and marked a turning point in the legal recognition of LGBTQ+ rights.The Windsor decision laid the constitutional groundwork for Obergefell v. Hodges two years later, which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. The filing on September 11, 2012, was a procedural but critical moment that pushed the case toward the highest court in the land. It also signaled a shift in the federal government's posture toward LGBTQ+ equality—moving from defense of discriminatory laws to active legal opposition.The trial of Ryan Routh, accused of attempting to assassinate then former President Donald Trump, begins this week in Fort Pierce, Florida. Routh, 59, is facing five federal charges, including attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate, and has chosen to represent himself. Prosecutors allege that Routh hid with a rifle near the sixth hole of Trump's golf course in West Palm Beach last September, intending to kill Trump. He fled after a Secret Service agent spotted him before any shots were fired and was arrested the same day.The trial opens amid rising concerns about political violence in the U.S., underscored by the recent killing of Trump ally Charlie Kirk in Utah. Trump himself has been targeted multiple times, including a shooting in Pennsylvania in July 2024 that left him wounded. Routh, a former roofing contractor with a history of erratic behavior, had expressed political views supporting Taiwan and Ukraine and previously outlined a bizarre plan involving Afghan refugees.The case is being heard by Judge Aileen Cannon, the same judge who previously dismissed a separate criminal case against Trump involving classified documents. Cannon has already expressed frustration with Routh during jury selection, rejecting several of his proposed questions as irrelevant. The jury consists of seven women and five men. The trial is expected to spotlight the ongoing increase in politically motivated violence in the U.S.,Trial begins for man accused of trying to assassinate Trump, spotlighting US political violence | ReutersFive former federal employees have filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC), alleging the agency unlawfully dismissed their complaints after being fired early in President Trump's second term. Represented by Democracy Forward, the plaintiffs claim OSC failed to investigate over 2,000 complaints from probationary employees terminated en masse in February 2025, despite earlier findings that the firings may have violated federal law. The lawsuit, filed in D.C. federal court, seeks a ruling that OSC's blanket dismissal of the complaints was arbitrary and violated the Administrative Procedure Act.Probationary federal employees—often in their first year or newly assigned roles—have fewer job protections, making them vulnerable to politically motivated purges. In this case, the Trump administration dismissed roughly 25,000 such employees, sparking multiple legal challenges. Some courts briefly reinstated the workers, but appeals courts ruled that plaintiffs lacked standing or needed to exhaust administrative remedies before going to court.OSC, under former Special Counsel Hampton Dellinger, had suggested the mass terminations were unlawful. However, after Trump fired Dellinger, his replacement, Jamieson Greer, dismissed all the pending complaints, citing alignment with new administrative priorities. The plaintiffs argue this abrupt shift was politically driven and undermined OSC's duty to safeguard merit-based civil service protections.The lawsuit aims to compel OSC to reopen investigations into the firings and reassert that probationary employees still retain legal protections from unlawful dismissals.US Special Counsel sued for dismissing fired federal workers' complaints | ReutersThe Trump administration has appealed a federal judge's decision blocking the removal of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, aiming to fire her before the central bank's next interest rate meeting on September 16. U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb ruled that President Trump's claim—alleging Cook committed mortgage fraud before taking office—likely does not meet the legal threshold to justify her dismissal. The administration's brief appeal to the D.C. Circuit did not include arguments, but signaled urgency given the upcoming monetary policy meeting.Cook, who has denied any wrongdoing, filed suit in August claiming that the fraud allegations were a pretext for removing her due to her policy positions. She argues that the law governing the Federal Reserve allows a governor to be removed only “for cause,” a term not clearly defined in the statute and never previously tested in court. Cobb agreed that the case raises new and important legal questions, emphasizing the public interest in shielding the Fed from political pressure.The DOJ has opened a criminal investigation into the alleged mortgage fraud, with grand jury subpoenas issued in Georgia and Michigan. The case could have broader implications for the independence of federal agencies, especially those like the Fed that have traditionally operated free from executive interference. This follows other high-profile cases in which courts have temporarily blocked Trump from firing leaders of independent agencies, including the U.S. Copyright Office.Trump has pressured the Fed to lower interest rates and criticized Chair Jerome Powell, though Cook has consistently voted with the Fed majority on rate decisions. Her continued presence at the Fed could influence upcoming policy moves.Trump administration appeals ruling blocking removal of Fed Governor Cook | ReutersA federal appeals court has upheld most provisions of a New Jersey law restricting firearms in designated “sensitive places,” such as parks, hospitals, beaches, libraries, and casinos. The 2-1 decision by the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a lower court ruling that found the law violated the Second Amendment. The appeals court concluded the restrictions aligned with historical firearm regulations in places traditionally considered sensitive due to their civic or public safety function.The ruling is a setback for gun rights advocates, following similar decisions by appeals courts in California, Hawaii, and New York. These rulings come in the wake of the Supreme Court's 2022 decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, which established a new framework for evaluating gun laws—requiring that modern regulations be consistent with the nation's historical tradition of firearm control. While Bruen expanded gun rights, it also acknowledged the legitimacy of restrictions in sensitive locations.Judge Cheryl Ann Krause, writing for the majority, emphasized that U.S. history supports limiting firearms in specific public areas to preserve peace and safety. Judge Cindy Chung concurred, while Judge David Porter dissented, arguing the government shouldn't be able to arbitrarily declare places “sensitive” to limit gun rights.The New Jersey Attorney General praised the decision, while gun rights groups criticized it as an overly deferential interpretation of the Second Amendment.US appeals court largely upholds New Jersey gun restrictions | Reuters This is a public episode.

本集是兩道下酒菜!這些事件發生在八月中旬,也希望聽眾朋友可以透過我們跟上時事!下酒菜 1:美國同婚政策迴轉?8月11日美國 ABC News 新聞報導,美國最高法院將會重新考慮受理 2015年肯德基州的公務員 Kim Davis 因自身宗教原因拒絕簽發結婚證書給同性夫妻而入獄六天之案件 。目前 Davis 正對陪審團判決的10萬美元精神賠償及26萬美元的律師費提出上訴。Davis 在請願書中表示,美國憲法第一修正案保障了宗教自由,應使她不用因自己的行為而受罰。她也表示,2015 年美國保障同性婚姻重要里程碑的奧貝格費爾訴霍奇斯案(Obergefell v. Hodges),判決所根據的美國憲法第十四條修正案,以正當法律程序保護所有美國同性伴侶的婚姻權利的依據是「極其錯誤的」(egregiously wrong)。美國最高法院的大法官目前的組成是保守派居多,這對墮胎保障的法規有巨大的引響。而對於本案的肯德基州公務員 Kim Davis,主持人認為,公務員身為國家為民服務的單位,不應該將個人意見反映在工作場合中。下酒菜 2:台灣墮胎權研議刪除配偶同意權提議者雅嘎於2025年7月27日於公共政策網路參與平台提議刪除墮胎行為的配偶同意權。在8月9日,附議人數已到全國性門檻 5,000 人。截至九月四日,附議人數已達 5,480人。《刑法》依舊將墮胎視為刑事犯罪,現行的《優生保健法》裡,除特定情況外(包含孕婦或配偶有遺傳或精神疾病,或是性侵、亂倫、未婚懷孕等情況),不得合法實施墮胎,進行墮胎需經法定配偶同意。提議者雅嘎認為現行法規限制了女性身體自主權,也導致法律矛盾及社會不公。提案具體訴求包括刪除《刑法》中視墮胎為犯罪行為的規範、刪除《優生保健法》中提到墮胎需法定配偶同意的部分、提倡政府應正視及提供安全、免費的墮胎及相關藥物等服務,並積極推動避孕知識、去除墮胎汙名化的宣導。《優生保健法》的主責單位衛生福利部國民健康署也在8月13日向中央社記者說明,優生保健法已在2022年1月14日預告修正《優生保健法》草案,除了要將《優生保健法》改名為《生育保健法》,也提議將墮胎配偶同意權刪除。在預告修正後這三年間,國健署已舉辦多次會議與不同專家及民間團體討論。國健署也在同月22日在平台表示,已向提案人釐清並確定提案內容。下一步將在成案兩個月內,也就是今年10月9日前在平台上正式公開回應。教育部也會於成案兩個月內於平台做出正式回應。新聞來源:Supreme Court formally asked to overturn landmark same-sex marriage ruling: https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/supreme-court-formally-asked-overturn-landmark-same-sex/story?id=124465302刪墮胎須配偶同意倡議達附議門檻 國健署:修法中:https://www.cna.com.tw/news/ahel/202508130294.aspx公共政策網路參與平台提案:刪除墮胎罪與配偶同意權,推動免費墮胎與去污名化,落實北歐式性教育及免費避孕資源:https://join.gov.tw/idea/detail/24e2b4c1-f979-42e4-a316-dfab9a27c633《Z色派對》由鬼島之音 Ghost Island Media 製作、出品主持 - ZUKKIM 張竹芩 & ZOE 李菁琪 製作 - Emily Y.

Following a personal financial crisis where he accumulated $85,000 in credit card debt, Kilpatrick discovered what he believes is a fundamental misrepresentation in how banks issue credit cards and collect payments.• Distinction between store-issued credit cards (legitimate debt backed by goods/services) versus bank-issued cards (allegedly fraudulent)• Bank-issued credit cards function more like gift cards since they lack traditional loan documentation (promissory notes, income verification, collateral)• After filing federal lawsuits against banks, Kilpatrick had his debts removed from his credit report within 45 days• The modern banking system allegedly creates money through accounting entries rather than lending existing funds• Process for challenging bank-issued credit card debt involves demanding evidence of legitimate debt (invoice, promissory note)• Working with accounting professionals can verify these claims and help prepare appropriate documentation• Even after challenging bank practices, consumers can still obtain new credit cards and rebuild credit scores• Banks allegedly profit approximately $23 per month from the average cardholder through feesTo learn more about challenging bank-issued credit card debt, check out Kilpatrick's book "Forgive and Forget: How to Nuke Your Credit Card Debt" available on Amazon, or schedule a 15-minute free consultation to receive the book for free.Show Notes1.

Ben Hodges is a retired United States Army officer, who became commander of United States Army Europe in November 2014, and held that position for three years until retiring from the United States Army in January 2018. Until recently he was the Pershing Chair in Strategic Studies, at the Centre for European Policy Analysis, specialising in NATO, Transatlantic relationship and international security. ----------DESCRIPTION: Geopolitical Tensions: Russia's Aggression and Strategic Implications - With Ben HodgesIn this episode, Jonathan interviews Ben Hodges, retired United States Army officer and former commander of United States Army Europe. The discussion covers a range of geopolitical issues, including Russia's recent attacks on EU, UK, and US assets in Ukraine, and the potential consequences of perceived US disengagement under the Trump administration. Hodges shares insights on the likelihood of Russia feeling emboldened to act against NATO countries and the strategic importance of Europe acting collectively as a superpower. The conversation also delves into the tactical behaviors of both Putin and Trump, the risks of inadvertent escalation into a larger conflict, and the necessity for Europe to defend itself and support Ukraine in the absence of consistent US backing.----------CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction00:58 Current Geopolitical Tensions01:31 Trump Administration's Impact on Global Politics02:09 Russia's Tactical Moves and Global Reactions04:04 Europe's Role and Strategic Interests07:58 Ukraine's Defense and Strategic Moves11:59 Potential Future Scenarios and Strategic Planning20:12 Conclusion and Final Thoughts----------LINKS:https://twitter.com/general_benhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Hodges https://cepa.org/author/ben-hodges/ https://warsawsecurityforum.org/speaker/hodges-ben-lt-gen/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-hodges-1674b1172/ ----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Today on Truth in Politics and Culture, Cracker Barrel totally misreads their customers and rolls out a new logo and a new look that fall flat. Kim Davis, the former clerk of Rowan County, Kentucky who refused to sign same-sex marriage licenses asked the Supreme Court to review her case. Will SCOTUS take the case, and if so, will they use it as an opportunity to overturn same-sex marriage?
This is the decision that said the fundamental right to marry is protected under the 14th Amendment. How did it come about? What was the status of marriage before June of 2015? And why is the government so involved in the marriage business anyways?This episode features the voices of Melissa Wasser from the Project on Government Oversight and Jim Obergefell, the named party in Obergefell v Hodges.

00:00-25:00: Baseball great/Ferrum assistant baseball coach Darren Hodges joins the show to chat about his career, seeing the 90's Yankee prospects while in the system, Andy Pettitte having big league stuff early, Derek Jeter's will at an early age, his connection with Billy Wagner going back years at Ferrum, what the Ferrum story really is, if you're good, you're good, the game today and why it's so frustrating, the brutal NY Yankees and what needs to change and more.
Ansley is back in the driver's seat of the Boredwalk Podcast, and she is FIRED UP about MAGA's latest assaults on civil liberties — particularly long-forgotten serially divorced sister-wife Kim Davis's return to the national spotlight to resume her bigoted crusade to overturn the U.S. Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling that legalized same-sex marriage at the federal level. Ugh, give it up, you pathetic hose beast! Take your deviled eggs of hate back to your tacky double-wide hovel, stop being so obsessed with what other people do in their private lives, and do something constructive with your life! Maybe start with addressing your tragic wardrobe choices and regrettable hair situation. This leads into a discussion of Donald Trump's continued efforts to end free and fair elections and representative democracy more broadly in the U.S. as he races to complete Project 2025 and uses the National Guard and domestic militarization for his personal political vendettas. If you're concerned about U.S. politics and voting rights, you won't want to miss this episode full of Donald Trump news. We also discuss attacks on birth control, reproductive rights, and more! Moving on, we check in with the latest dispatch from Troll-sylvania, where we get to disabuse fragile men in the comments of the notion that misandry is a thing that exists (it does not). Astute listeners / viewers will note that the above sentence is unchanged from LAST week's episode description. That is because these soft little snowflakes cry about the same thing CONSTANTLY every freakin' week in our comments. At least be original with your whining, you pathetic red pill regressives! This is followed by a nice palate cleanser in the form of a glowing 5-star review for our newly-released Sinister Affirmations card deck, and then our hosts wrap up the episode by trading answers to questions pulled from our Delve Deck conversation card sets. This week we answer the questions "what is your least favorite home decor trend?", "what first made you realize you were getting old?", and "what's your favorite smell?"

In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica breaks down three major legal developments: the Supreme Court allowing Mississippi's age verification law for social media to take effect while litigation continues, a renewed but unlikely push to overturn the Court's marriage equality decision in Obergefell, and a federal court ruling enabling potential mass firings at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Jessica explains what these cases mean for our rights and daily lives, highlighting the ongoing balance between state power, individual liberties, and consumer protection.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:Supreme Court and Mississippi's Social Media Age Verification Law: The episode opens with a discussion of the Supreme Court's decision to allow Mississippi's new law requiring age verification for children on social media to take effect while legal battles continue. The law mandates social media companies verify users' ages and get parental consent for kids under 18. Supporters claim it protects children from online harms, while critics argue it's vague, intrusive, and may violate the First Amendment.Renewed Push to Overturn Marriage Equality (Obergefell v. Hodges): There's renewed legal activity aimed at overturning the Supreme Court's 2015 decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. The case gained attention due to Kim Davis, a former Kentucky clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, now asking the Supreme Court to revisit the ruling.Trump Administration and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB): The final major story discusses a recent court decision paving the way for the Trump administration to pursue mass firings at the CFPB—a federal agency created after the 2008 financial crisis to protect consumers.

Hi. Parker Molloy is back to chat with Katy, Cody, and Jonathan about Trump taking down the deep state (guy with sandwich) in D.C., Benny Johnson's embarrassing turn in the "new media" seat in the White House briefing room, the threat to Obergefell v. Hodges, and the deeply unqualified Heritage Foundation Jan. 6 weirdo nominated by Trump to run the Bureau of Labor Statistics.PATREON: https://patreon.com/somemorenewsMERCH: https://shop.somemorenews.comYOUTUBE MEMBERSHIP: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvlj0IzjSnNoduQF0l3VGng/join#EvenMoreNews #DonaldTrump #BennyJohnsonPluto TV.
