Podcasts about kavanaugh scotus

Today's episode explains exactly what happened with the story you probably saw about how Led Zeppelin "got a new hearing" in their lawsuit with the estate of Randy California. What's going on? Listen and find out! We also break down the latest ethical wrangling over Yale law professor Amy Chua and Brett Kavanaugh. Is it as bad as everyone says? We begin with the tale of "Tiger Mom" Amy Chua, the Yale law professor who wrote a stirring defense of Brett Kavanaugh as a "mentor to women" after Kavanaugh had offered Chua's daughter a plum clerkship. Did that pot get sweetened when Kavanaugh was confirmed to the Supreme Court? (Hint: yes.) We break down all of the ethics & more in this segment. Then, it's time to revisit the lawsuit brought by the estate of Randy California against Led Zeppelin alleging that Led Zep stole the iconic riff for "Stairway to Heaven" from California's band, Spirit. If you haven't listened to Episode 236, go give that a listen right now, and then come back to find out what's new. Then, it's time for another Andrew Was Wrong segment -- this time, involving the actual penalty for refusing to answer or giving false answers on the Census. After all that, it's time for the answer to Thomas Takes the Bar Exam #130 about the constitutional propriety of collecting sales tax from a private individual who will then turn around and sell the objects to the state. Did Thomas get it right? There's only one way to know for sure! Appearances None! If you'd like to have either of us as a guest on your show, drop us an email at openarguments@gmail.com. Show Notes & Links Click here to read Chua's original Wall Street Journal op-ed, "Kavanaugh Is A Mentor to Women." After that broke, Elie Mystal criticized Chua in an Above the Law article, to which Sophia Chua-Rubenfeld tweeted that she "[w]on't be applying to SCOTUS." Mystal also teamed up with The Guardian to unearth more revelations regarding Chua, Kavanaugh, and how his clerks always "look like models." Of course, it was Mystal who broke the news that Sophia Chua-Rubenfeld was chosen as a Kavanaugh SCOTUS clerk. We covered Zeppelin in Episode 236. The false answers statute is 13 U.S.C. § 221. -Support us on Patreon at:  patreon.com/law -Follow us on Twitter:  @Openargs -Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/openargs/, and don't forget the OA Facebook Community! -For show-related questions, check out the Opening Arguments Wiki, which now has its own Twitter feed!  @oawiki -And finally, remember that you can email us at openarguments@gmail.com!

Judge Brett Kavanaugh has been sworn in as a US Supreme Court justice following a dramatic congressional hearing in which he was accused of sexually assaulting a woman back when the two were teenagers. KCSB's Kali Acquaah spoke with some UCSB students to find out their feelings about the hearing, and judicial appointment. This segment aired on the KCSB Public Affairs/Cultural Arts Spotlight, Monday at 5:45pm on 91.9 FM KCSB.

The Migrant Mob Invasion of America. A "Caravan" of thousands moves north out of Honduras, vowing to reach Los Estados Unidos. We sample news reports estimating a column of humanity over "two miles" long. Signaling a strong response, President Trump is pressuring the governments of El Salvador, Honduras and Mexico while preparing to defend the "SOUTHERN BORDER" with the "U.S. Military." A chance for Trump to shine -- to protect American sovereignty. We suspect Democratic billionaire globalists have manufactured and funded the Mob Caravan, and thus we puzzle over their motivations. How can the Left possibly fathom that any of this can help their Midterm electoral prospects? On the heels of the Kavanaugh SCOTUS fiasco, this Caravan Crisis appears to be adding even more motivation for Republicans to vote. And Independents too. Newt Gingrich calls it an "attack on America" which must be halted. Plus, we review British explorer Levison Wood's encounters with illegal immigrants from all over the world during his recent journey through Central America.

Laci Green is a popular YouTuber, sex educator, feminist, and author. She's also a personal friend of mine. I initially invited Laci to Santa Monica for a Fireside Chat about her new book (Sex Plus: Learning, Loving, and Enjoying Your Body), and intended on discussing sexuality, feminism, and all the rest. Instead, though, we had a wide-ranging political conversation, touching on topics from the deeply divisive Kavanaugh SCOTUS confirmation and the fight between pro-choice and pro-life elements, to the role of crime in America and our radically different views on the death penalty. Buckle in for a civil conversation between a liberal and a conservative. Unheard of, I know.

I pushed the start time a bit because I wanted to see the outcome of the Kavanaugh SCOTUS confirmation vote. I talked about all the developments that happened throughout the week, and wondered what would happen in the future. Then I got into that crazy ChiCom computer spying story, the guy who sent Ricin to the Pentagon, and Brick Dollbanger broke a sex doll. Plus, dude tricked guys into gay sex, and kid in India shoved a bunch of wire into his dickhole. Music: Crowbar/"Walk with knowledge wisely"

What does Chuck Todd know that we don’t? Is Trump going to get involved in the operations of the FBI and DOJ if they don’t get their act together?

Will Dems have anything more than their standard dog and donkey show in opposition to the Kavanaugh SCOTUS nomination next week?
