Reports continues to surface about former President Biden's decline, both physically and mentally, before he ended his run for re-election. Americans will remember the infamous debate last June that sparked questions about then-President Biden, and weeks later he dropped out of the race.

Democratic strategist and 2024 Biden campaign surrogate Kevin Walling joins the Rundown to discuss the fallout from those Biden decline stories now reaching America at large.

The decline is largely attributed to the tariffs imposed on China, which have exposed the vulnerability of Apple's reliance on China for cheap manufacturing.

Patrick McGee, author of Apple in China: The Capture of the World's Greatest Company, joins the podcast to explain the origins of Apple placing its manufacturing in China, and he details how and why Apple's manufacturing center became effectively stuck in China.

What does it take to go from a criminal prosecutor to a pioneer of the “originalism” movement and one of the top constitutional law scholars in America?Randy Barnett is a professor of law at Georgetown University and the director of Georgetown Center for the Constitution. He has written numerous books including, Our Republican Constitution: Securing the Liberty and Sovereignty of We the People, The Original Meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment: Its Letter and Spirit, and most recently a memoir called A Life for Liberty: The Making of an American Originalist. Randy and Greg discuss his journey from private to public law, how he discovered and furthered the originalism movement, and his influential roles in landmark cases such as the 2004 medical marijuana challenge before the U.S. Supreme Court and the 2012 Affordable Care Act challenge. They also delve into the nuances of constitutional law and the structural challenges within legal academia.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:What motivates justices beyond doctrine19:35: What really motivates these justices, apart from the doctrine, which I think doesn't really motivate them, that means the law is not motivating. And what really motivates them is what I call constitutional principle. They carry within their minds some fundamental constitutional principles. And those principles kind of dictate what they think the right answer is. And at that point, they will start marshaling doctrine on behalf of that. But it isn't merely the policy outcome of the case. That's the difference. For the legal realists, the pure legal realists. It's just, "What outcome do I like?" But for most justices, it's, "What constitutional principles do I hold dear that I want to see vindicated, or do I believe will be undermined if the other side should prevail?" That's a big difference.What is originalism?12:37: Originalism is the view that the meaning of the constitution should remain the same until it is properly changed by amendment.Can contract law theory help you understand constitutional theory better?09:46: Being able to do contract law theory and to be able to do it at all enabled me to do constitutional theory way better than people who have known nothing but constitutional law. And if I can put this more in a vernacular, constitutional law is largely bullshit.The empty concept of activism in legal discourse29:03: The term activism is a completely empty concept. It is more, like what you said earlier, a label to be peeled off and stuck on a decision that you don't like. And it's a sort of process objection, which allows you to avoid having to talk about the merits of the constitutional argument. You say, "Oh, this judge is overstepping their authority. They're engaged in activism," without, and without having to say, "Well, what's wrong with what they said about the constitution?" Or whatever. And so, because it's empty, anybody can hurl it.Show Links:Recommended Resources:“A Consent Theory of Contract” by Randy Barnett Originalism “The Misconceived Quest for Original Understanding” by Ben ZimmerGovernment by Judiciary by Raoul BergerBarry Goldwater Arthur M.

American democracy faces a defining challenge as the judiciary—our system's intended steady hand—confronts unprecedented attacks from a presidency openly questioning its legitimacy. Trump's declaration that he can ignore Supreme Court rulings represents more than partisan rancor; it threatens constitutional governance itself.Professor Tara Grove joins the pod and offers critical perspective by examining historical confrontations between courts and presidents. While Lincoln tested judicial authority during the Civil War and FDR privately threatened to defy the Supreme Court during WWII, today's explicit challenges to judicial legitimacy feel distinctly dangerous. When Roosevelt informed his attorney general that Nazi saboteurs would not be released regardless of court rulings, this knowledge influenced justices to approve military tribunals rather than risk institutional humiliation. Similarly, when implementing Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court adopted the notoriously weak "all deliberate speed" standard specifically because justices feared southern states would openly defy stronger mandates.These historical examples reveal the judiciary's fundamental vulnerability—courts possess neither budget authority nor enforcement powers, only judgment. Their effectiveness depends entirely on other branches' willingness to comply with rulings. The post-Civil Rights era established a crucial norm of compliance that Trump now threatens to unravel. His administration has already demonstrated selective compliance, ignoring the TikTok ban and twisting itself into knots to justify not returning Bimbo Abrebo Garcia from El Salvador despite court orders.As the Court prepares to rule on birthright citizenship, religious education funding, trans rights, and redistricting, justices must weigh not just legal principles but whether their decisions will maintain institutional credibility if openly defied. This precarious position raises profound questions: Are we witnessing democracy's unraveling or just another challenging chapter in America's constitutional experiment? And what responsibility do citizens bear in reinforcing judicial authority through our own respect for constitutional norms?-------------------------Follow Deep Dive:BlueskyYouTube Email: deepdivewithshawn@gmail.com Music: Majestic Earth - Joystock
They are called UFPs, or "Unexplained Phenomena," and they can range from unidentified flying crafts to paranormal events like telekinesis, the ability to move objects with your mind.

In the past few years, Congress has held hearings to hear witness and expert testimony to look into the sometimes unexplained. FOX's Chris Foster speaks with Dr. Julia Mossbridge, the executive director of The Institute for Love and Time (TILT), a fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, and an associated professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies and the author of 'The Calling: A 12-Week Science-Based Program to Discover, Energize, and Engage Your Soul's Work,' who has testified before Congress and says modern day science is catching up with UFP theories for possible answers.

There's a big push to go cashless. More and more companies are embracing and, in some cases, only permitting digital payments. And in March, President Trump signed an executive order. mandating a transition to electronic payments to and from the federal government, including tax refunds and federal benefits.

Republicans in Congress say they are now working to pass President Trump's ‘big beautiful bill' by the Fourth of July. The President's request that Congress slash 20% from the 2026 budget has proved to be a challenge, yet House Speaker Mike Johnson says they are still on track to pass this reconciliation bill out of the House by Memorial Day. Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) joins the Rundown to discuss the spending bill deadline, GOP plans for a federal budget that meaningfully reduces the national debt, and how eliminating the penny could save taxpayers millions. During his first week back in office, President Donald Trump signed an executive order no longer requiring federal contractors to uphold affirmative action programs.

Critics say the president's actions are moving the country backward. However, FOX News Contributor and author of the new book The Affirmative Action Myth, Jason Riley, joins to discuss why racial favoritism has done more harm than good.
