The U.S. Military Academy at West Point is facing a lawsuit that claims it’s violating the First Amendment. The suit, filed by its own law professor, Tim Bakken, alleges that the academy is banning professors from expressing opinions in the classroom and demanding that they seek approval to speak publicly. Geoff Bennett sat down with Bakken to discuss more. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy

University of Kansas international law professor John Head talks about the need for long-term planning and other steps to address critical agricultural and environmental crises.

Monday's “What's Buggin' You” segment for 9-22-25

Seeks class-action status over First Amendment claims The U.S. Military Academy at West Point is banning opinions by professors in the classroom and some books and courses in a crackdown that violates the First Amendment, a law professor at the military school said in a lawsuit Monday (Sept. 22) seeking class-action status. Tim Bakken filed the lawsuit in Manhattan federal court and named the school and its leaders as defendants. He said he wants to protect free speech and the right to academic freedom at an institution where he has flourished despite his public criticisms of the academy and the U.S. military. Bakken also noted in the lawsuit that he has a contract with a publisher for a book that is critical of some aspects of West Point and doesn't want to seek approval from the school's leadership prior to its publication because "it is very likely such approval will be withheld." The lawsuit seeks class action status for West Point's civilian faculty members, believed to be more than 100 individuals, and a court order to stop restrictions on free speech, along with unspecified damages and legal fees. Bakken's lawsuit said the school began to scrutinize faculty speech after a January executive order from President Donald Trump to "carefully review the leadership, curriculum and instructors of the United States Service Academies and other defense academic institutions." In February, the military academy at West Point issued a policy preventing faculty members from using the school's "affiliation or branding" in connection with any public comments or writings without the academy's approval, the lawsuit said. The lawsuit said the policy was "to control, chill and suppress faculty speech." The lawsuit said the academy in the spring withdrew books from its library, removed words and phrases from faculty members' syllabi, eliminated courses and majors and threatened or punished faculty members for teaching, speaking and writing without prior approval from the school. During the summer, the academy removed information about faculty members' published books, articles, essays and scholarship entries from all faculty members' webpages on the school's website, the lawsuit said. It also directed instructors not to express opinions in the classroom, it said. "As a professor of law, Plaintiff's inability to express opinions on the subject matter being taught is stifling and disruptive to the educational process," the lawsuit said. It added that he no longer would be able to express to students whether a major or dissenting opinion is persuasive and why. The military academy did not immediately return a request for comment. Bakken, a civilian professor of law in the academy's Department of Law and Philosophy for the last 25 years, is the longest-serving law professor in West Point's history and has written extensively, including books, articles and essays, along with appearances on podcasts, radio and television, the lawsuit said. His most recent books are The Cost of Loyalty: Dishonesty, Hubris, and Failure in the U.S. Military (2020) and The Plea of Innocence: Restoring Truth to the American Justice System (2022). According to the lawsuit, he traveled with U.S. soldiers to Kabul in 2007 during the war in Afghanistan and created the Department of Law at the National Military Academy of Afghanistan. He seeks class action status for West Point's faculty and a court order to stop restrictions on free speech.

Over the weekend, the United Nations High Seas treaty — also called the Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ) Agreement, received its 60th and final required ratification to allow it to take effect, from January 2026. The treaty introduces historically significant measures for the protection of the ocean and marine biodiversity, especially in parts of the ocean that do not fall under the jurisdiction of a single nation. After decades of negotiation, sixty countries have now ratified the agreement, with a further 145 countries, including New Zealand, being signatories.  Some of the key aspects of the agreement will be the establishment of Marine Protected Areas, the introduction of legal obligations for countries to maintain high environmental standards around ocean activities, and the advancement of critical climate goals including the ban of bottom trawling and deep sea mining.  Tuesday Wire Host Sara spoke with Victoria University law professor Joanna Mossop more about the significance of this treaty, and how effective its legal obligations on an international stage will be — starting with her research interest in international marine law

Late-show host Jimmy Kimmel's been meeting with top Disney executives since he was pulled off air earlier this week. ABC put his talk show on hold indefinitely after he made controversial comments about the Charlie Kirk killing. US associate law professor Jacob Schriner-Briggs says there's a strong case for Kimmel to sue. "Typically, the First Amendment only applies to Government actors, which is to say that private entities cannot typically violate a person's freedom of speech, but the Supreme Court has been clear in interpreting the First Amendment that the Government cannot force private intermediaries to do its censorship work for it."

There could be more cases of judges handing back seized gang patches to gang members convicted of wearing them in public. Law professor Al Gillespie says the law allows discretion for judge, and they'll use it. This week, a judge ordered police give back a patch seized from a Lower Hutt gang member. Police Minister Mark Mitchell calls the decision disappointing and confirmed police are appealing. But Gillespie says the judge was within his rights to make the decision. "We could see more, I think that's quite possible. And if you do disagree with it, that's fine - but change the law." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Florida court convicted Dan Markel's former mother-in-law of first degree murder on Sept. 4 for the 2014 contract hit on the Canadian law professor. Markel, 41, was fatally shot in the head outside his Florida home by Latin gang members who his ex-wife's family had hired to execute him, while the couple was locked in a bitter custody battle over where their two sons should live. With Donna Adelson's guilty verdict, the American courts have now put five people associated with the murder behind bars, most of them locked away for life: Adelson, 75, the matriarch; Charles Adelson, her son, a dentist, convicted in 2023; also Adelson's former girlfriend, and the two killers. Markel's ex-wife Wendi has never been charged, and denies any involvement in the plot. Her parents were arrested two years ago at the Miami airport attempting to flee the United States to Vietnam, which has no extradition treaty. After their former in-law's three week trial ended, Markel's parents delivered victim impact statements, including wishing her a Jewish blessing that she should live to 120, alone in her jail cell. Ruth Markel joins host Ellin Bessner on today's episode of The CJN's North Star podcast to recount the family's latest trial ordeal, and why she hopes her two teenaged grandsons will come to Canada.

Alan Dershowitz, lawyer & former law professor, joins the show to talk about his decades-long defense of controversial clients, sparring with critics like Larry David, and standing firmly by Israel during its current war. He stresses that Prime Minister Netanyahu faces impossible choices between rescuing hostages and ensuring Israel's long-term security, arguing outsiders like Trump or U.S. politicians shouldn't second-guess Israel's decisions. Dershowitz highlights his recent Wall Street Journal piece, “Jewish Blood Is No Longer Cheap,” asserting Hamas—not Israel—bears responsibility for civilian deaths in Gaza. The conversation turns personal as he reflects on the loss of his son, who heroically lived decades beyond a grim prognosis and produced films and Dershowitz's podcast.

This week, we're zooming out a bit and looking at the state of the federal judiciary. To help us understand what's going on, we've got William & Mary law professor Jonathan Adler back on the show. He recently wrote a piece that laid out just how few judicial appointments President Donald Trump has actually made since the beginning of his second term. Not only that, but just how few opportunities he has to make new appointments from here through the end of his term. Adler said there are just not as many federal judges retiring or creating openings by taking senior positions as there have been for other presidents, or even for Trump's first term. He said Trump's controversial appointment of his former personal lawyer Emil Bove to an appellate seat, and the potential shift in approach toward vetting it represents, may be giving current judges pause. But, he argued non-political factors, such as the increasing longevity of judges, may be playing an even bigger role. Adler said the slow pace of vacancies and the uncertain nature of Trump's approach to his second-term appointments cast doubt on whether he'll have as much of an impact on the ideological balance of the federal judiciary as he did the first time around. Special Guest: Jonathan H. Alder.

A call for an overhaul of the Clean Slate Act. Last week tutor Timothy Fisher was sentenced to four years and five months in prison for sexual abuse charges. He had historical indecency convictions but was able to pass multiple police vets and become registered as a teacher. Despite receiving a red stamp warning from police, the council renewed his practising certificate after receiving an investigation report from its Complaints Assessment Committee and another clear police vet. Retired Law Professor Bill Hodge told Mike Hosking there should be an expansion of what crimes aren't allowed to be swept under the carpet. He says the act was designed for minor offences, like marijuana possession. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With the Trump administration’s dismantling of environmental regulations and total reversal on policies to combat climate change, activists have filed lawsuits and requests for injunctions all over the country. The latest development is the Trump-led Environmental Protection Agency reversing the long-standing “endangerment finding” that greenhouse gases threatened human health and welfare. One environmental law professor at Harvard called it “an assault on the foundation of all federal climate policy.” Lewis & Clark environmental law professor Melissa Powers says Oregon — and other states — do have options to fight climate change, besides filing individual lawsuits. She says one viable strategy would be for Oregon to create a Climate Superfund. We talk with her about what unraveling of environmental regulations is likely to mean in Oregon and more about the potential for an Oregon Climate Superfund.

Alan Dershowitz, lawyer & former law professor, joins the program to discuss the left-leaning bias in Harvard's faculty and the undue influence of foreign money on the university.

In this powerful 3-part episode, we dive into the tragic legacy of the Wounded Knee Massacre and its connection to the ongoing fight for Native American religious freedom. My guest, law Professor, Richard Garnett - a Choctaw citizen and expert in religious freedom at Notre Dame - helps unpack what the law *actually* says about Native religious rights, sacred land use, and the balance between tribal sovereignty and U.S. legal systems. From the Ghost Dance to peyote use in the Native American Church, and from religious Acts and the Constitution, we explore how Native faith practices have been criminalized, protected, and misunderstood throughout U.S. history. We also discuss the painful irony that Native communities often need specific legislation just to practice their traditions, unlike many other faiths in America. Professor Garnett shares why religious freedom isn't just about individual rights - it's also about land, language, and the deep communal connection to sacred spaces.

Dan Markel, a respected Florida State University law professor, was tragically murdered on July 18, 2014, in a “murder‑for‑hire” ambush outside his Tallahassee home. After a bitter custody battle with his ex-wife Wendi Adelson—centered on her desire to relocate their two sons to South Florida—a conspiracy unfolded. Investigators uncovered that Wendi's brother, Charlie Adelson, allegedly arranged the hit, funneling payments through his then-girlfriend Katherine Magbanua. Magbanua then enlisted Sigfredo “Tuto” Garcia, who shot Markel in the head, while accomplice Luis Rivera helped orchestrate the setup. The crime was tracked down through surveillance of a rented Prius, phone and GPS data, and an undercover FBI operation that recorded coded phone calls involving Charlie and his mother, Donna Adelson.
