John McGinnis and Adam White discuss the blockbuster cases of the recent term.
The consequences of crafty politicians pushing bad bills is nothing new but Prop 47 dramatically altered crime in the state. Join the conversation as John Kabateck, Executive Director for NFIB California, and Sheriff John McGinness discuss the casualties of Prop 47 and what you, as a small business owner, can do about it. Retail theft may be the significance of the story today but you'll also get a great perspective on some of the things small business and the voting community can do to better protect themselves from bad legislation. Paying attention to what is being proposed is a first step to turning the tide of less than business friendly legislation.

Lawyers and judges play an important role in a democratic republic like the United States. In Democracy in America, Tocqueville praised the character of America’s lawyers as indispensable to protecting the U.S. Constitution, because their taste for formality would help preserve it against popular passions. Similarly, in Federalist 78 Alexander Hamilton defends judicial review by arguing that judges will be bound down by “strict rules and precedents.” Does the U.S. Constitution presuppose a legal profession of this sort? Have lawyers’ understanding of their job, and more broadly of their role in society, changed significantly? If lawyers’ interests have become different in the modern regulatory state than in the early republic, can the rule of law, and specifically judicial review, function in the long run as Tocqueville and Hamilton hoped?Featuring:Prof. Jamal Greene, Dwight Professor of Law, Columbia Law School Prof. Tara Grove, Vinson & Elkins Chair in Law, University of Texas at Austin School of LawMr. Ashley Keller, Partner, Keller Lenkner LLCProf. John McGinnis, George C.

The 2021 National Lawyers Convention took place November 11-13, 2021 at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC. The topic of the conference was "Public and Private Power: Preserving Freedom or Preventing Harm?" This panel discussed "ABA Law School Accreditation Standards."For many years, the U.S. Department of Education has recognized the Council of the American Bar Association Section on Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar as the accrediting organization for law schools. The importance of that function cannot be overstated. For nearly every state, a J.D. degree from an ABA-accredited law school is required to practice law. To become accredited, a law school must comply with the standards contained in the ABA Standards and Rules of Procedure for Approval of Law Schools. In May 2021, the Council of the ABA Section proposed a set of accreditation standards that, among other things, would require law schools to "take effective actions that, in their totality, demonstrate progress in (1) Diversifying the students, faculty, and staff; and (2) Creating an inclusive and equitable environment for students, faculty, and staff." An interpretation of that provision stated, "The requirement of a constitutional provision that purports to prohibit consideration of race, color, ethnicity, religion, national origin, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, or military status in admissions or employment decisions is not a justification for a school’s non-compliance." The school would have to show "effective actions and progress . . . by means other than those prohibited by the applicable constitutional or statutory provisions." In addition, law schools must "provide training and education to law students on bias, cross-cultural competency, and racism: (1) at the start of the program of legal education, and (2) at least once again before graduation." The Council has since withdrawn the proposal for further study, but it may reappear.Our panel of experts will discuss the degree to which the ABA’s proposed new policy represented a change from its prior practice; if it was a change, how it came about, including any arguments for or against it; whether it is justified and consistent with the accrediting role; and, if it is not, what steps, if any, might be appropriate to take.Featuring:Hon.

Dan Truitt - WRTA's TWR with Dr. John McGinnis 5/19/2020 by
In this episode, Bill tells Red how he got started: the origins of the term "rock'n'roll"; his early success, how he managed his money, and how he kept his enthusiasm. Recorded at CFUN/Vancouver 5-31-66 It's hard to put a finger on the first Rock and Roll record but there is no doubt Bill Haley made it happen all over the world. Here was a Country and Western singer playing "Western Swing" much like the music of Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys. The novel part of Bill Haley's music - its rhythm - was the dominant factor that made Rock and Roll. At Bill's first session with Decca, he recorded "Rock Around the Clock" and "Shake, Rattle and Roll", which were to transform the concept of what popular music could be. "Rock Around the Clock" was featured in a youth-oriented movie called "Blackboard Jungle" and all hell broke loose. This movie and the song "Rock Around the Clock" became the focal points of the young and gave greater thrust to the popularity of this new hybrid of music, "Rock and Roll". In July of 1955 I had just graduated from High School and I was a young, high-voiced, rapid-patter deejay on CJOR/Vancouver. It all came together when a Decca recording landed on my desk. It was Bill Haley's "Rock Around the Clock" and it changed music - and radio - forever. Bill Haley arrived in Vancouver to play the first real Rock and Roll concert at the Kerrisdale Arena in June of 1956. When he arrived in Vancouver for his concert it was sheer bedlam. The show had been sold out for weeks before his arrival. I stepped out on to that stage and felt the electricity in the air immediately. I thanked Jack Cullen for asking me to MC the show and introduced Bill Haley. The screams started just after I said "And now the man you've been waiting for..." I thought the roof was going to be ripped off by the sheer weight of the noise. While Bill Haley played through his set I waited backstage for my first interview with the man who brought it all together. He was an utter surprise to me. He was kind and friendly, he was aware of my nervousness in his presence, but made me feel comfortable instantly. We talked for about an hour, had a few photographs taken together (by renowned Vancouver photographer John McGinnis) and he vanished into the night like so many of the stars I was to meet over the years. I knew then that here was a man of significance in the history of North American music. One of the most fascinating stories from that meeting was his almost prophetic offering to me. Bill said in the midst of the conversation, "Red, we have just about reached the end of our time in the spotlight." I could not understand this thinking; he was at the height of his career and the hits just kept on coming. Yet, he insisted that he and the Comets were about to be overtaken by a young man from Memphis. Haley said, "Red, the next giant of Rock and Roll is going to be Elvis Presley. He's got the looks, the talent and the magic to make him very, very important in the months and years ahead." Bill Haley was right. You know that, I know that, but in that dressing room at the Kerrisdale Arena during that hot Spring night in 1956 standing there with the world's number one Rock and Roll artist, it was hard to conceive of anyone bigger than Bill Haley and the Comets.
In this episode, Bill records two albums in Mexico; the high price of success; touring the Pacific and Europe and its effect on him and the Comets.

When Chevron was first decided it was generally welcomed on the right side of the political spectrum as a principled method constraining judicial discretion and permitting the executive to exert policy control over the administrative state. But as the administrative state continues to grow, some now see Chevron as removing an important check on government power and an abdication of the judiciary’s authority to say what the law is. Some members of the Supreme Court are now open to reconsidering judicial deference to agency action, at least in certain areas, such as determining their own jurisdictions and interpreting their own regulations. The panel will consider the extent to which the new skepticism toward Chevron in particular and judicial deference to agencies in general is justified. -- This panel took place during the 18th Annual Faculty Conference at the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel in New York, NY on January 8, 2016. -- Welcome: Dean Blake D.

Kinsella on Liberty Podcast, Episode 177. This is the final of six lectures of my 2011 Mises Academy course "Rethinking Intellectual Property: History, Theory, and Economics" (originally presented Tuesdays, Mar. 22-April 26, 2011). The first lecture may be found in KOL172. Youtube and slides for the this lecture are provided below. The course and other matters are discussed in further detail at KOL172. The “suggested readings” for the entire course are provided in the notes for KOL172. Lecture 6: THE FUTURE; INTEGRATING IP THEORY WITH AUSTRIAN ECONOMICS AND LIBERTARIAN THEORY; PROPOSED REFORMS; IMAGINING A POST-IP WORLD; THE FUTURE OF OPEN VS. CLOSED SUGGESTED READING MATERIAL See the notes for KOL172. ❧ Transcript Rethinking Intellectual Property: History, Theory, and Economics—Lecture 6: The Future; Integrating IP Theory With Austrian Economics and Libertarian Theory; Proposed Reforms; Imagining A Post-IP World; The Future of Open Vs. Closed Stephan Kinsella Mises Academy, April 12, 2011 00:00:01 STEPHAN KINSELLA: … last lecture for tonight. I thought what I would do – I have several things planned for tonight to discuss. Some of them are more optional than others, so I thought I would find out whether anyone has any questions. And if there's any questions from the lectures to date we could discuss those, say, in the first 10-15 minutes, and then I can adjust the rest of the lecture as necessary. So if anyone has any questions you'd like to discuss now, I'd be happy to take them. I'll go ahead and start until I see any, and I'll pause here in the first few minutes if anyone has any questions. And if at any time the video has a problem or the sound has a problem, just let me know. 00:00:47 Okay, so tonight I'm going to do some review and cover a few things in a little bit more detail, and then we'll go on to the sort of meat of the lecture in the last 30-45 minutes. So a couple of pieces of news and some – just some news of the week. Okay, so Jock does have a question. I read in B&L – Boldrin and Levine – that's the Against Intellectual Monopoly book – that financial instruments became patentable in the early ‘90s. Is there any evidence that they contributed to the financial meltdown? 00:01:24 Oh, I think that's a little bit beyond my expertise, Jock. You mean the patentability of them or just the financial instruments? I mean my view as an Austrian is that the financial meltdown was just the inevitable result of the Fed inflation-caused boom and that just something is going to pop it. And I don't think the financial instruments got more popular because of patents. It was a pretty rarely used thing from what I understand. 00:01:54 Okay, so John, I agree with you. John McGinnis, the Fed called it the meltdown. And I don't think – I haven't seen much abuse from these financial patents. I think people know they're a little bit odd, and they would be hard to enforce, and they might not hold up. Okay, if you have any others just type them in here. Otherwise, let's just go ahead and proceed. And again, I would suggest you guys, if you want to keep up with this stuff on a daily basis or weekly basis, check out my C4SIF.org website. 00:02:31 And just in the last seven days alone I think I had 15 or so posts, some of which I've got here. Some of these are actually older. Let me just go through some of these, and if you're curious about any of these you can click on these links or go to C4SIF and look at them in more detail. So these are some older ones actually. All the ones on this page are from about six months ago, five months ago maybe. 00:02:53 So there was one case where a Brazilian newspaper sued a parody blog for making fun of it. So I mean that's a little bit ironic that they're being made fun of and then they get – then they actually sue them even though parody is typically protected by copyright.
Originalism, which has become the most prominent theory of constitutional interpretation, holds that the U.S. Constitution should be interpreted according to its meaning at the time it was enacted. In a new book that offers an innovative defense of that theory, John McGinnis and Michael Rappaport maintain that the text of the Constitution should be followed because it was enacted by supermajorities—both its original enactment and in subsequent amendments. A text approved by supermajorities has special value in a democracy because it has unusually wide support and thus tends to maximize the welfare of the greatest number. But what is originalism’s place in constitutional interpretation when the Supreme Court has created so much non-originalist precedent? Indeed, had the Court not interpreted the Constitution so freely, perhaps the nation would have resorted to the Article V amendment process more often and with greater effect. Please join us for a spirited discussion of Originalism and the Good Constitution and what this new defense of originalism means to the quest for constitutionally limited government.

Kinsella on Liberty Podcast, Episode 105. This is an interview I did a couple years ago with my friend, Dr. John McGinnis, on his radio show, “Open Mike with Dr. John McGinnis,” WRTA (Sep. 19, 2011), discussing the America Invents Act. I met John when I lived in Philadelphia in the 90s, when we were both involved with the Freeman Society of Valley Forge (FEE-related), which helped me meet Hans Sennholz and Jacob Hornberger. A former economics professor, he is now a member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives.
