Sid is joined by Alan Dershowitz to discuss the escalating conflict with Iran and why he believes the United States and Israel were right to strike the regime's military leadership. Dershowitz argues the operation was justified under the Constitution, explains why President Donald Trump had the authority to act, and criticizes Democrats and groups like J Street for opposing the mission. The conversation also addresses the threat posed by Iran's drones and missiles, the importance of the U.S.–Israel alliance, and why Dershowitz believes a decisive victory over the Iranian regime would make the world safer.

U.S. and Israeli war on Iran continues The U.S. is now four days into its war against Iran, jointly with the Israeli military, and without congressional approval. Casualties so far include some U.S. service members and hundreds of Iranians, including the country's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Khamenei ruled for 36 years and built Iran into a powerful anti-U.S. adversary, while suppressing opposition at home with digital surveillance, mass arrests and lethal force. Following the U.S. strike on Iran, the conflict has spread to other Middle East countries, including Lebanon and Cyprus, causing the International Committee of the Red Cross to say civilian lives across the region are in grave danger. The Trump administration has sent mixed messages over its basis for attacking Iran, with President Donald Trump on one hand, urging the Iranian people to take over their government, while on the other, insisting this war was not about a regime change, but about nuclear and ballistic missile capability. Trump said Monday, "An Iranian regime armed with long-range missiles and nuclear weapons would be an intolerable threat to the Middle East but also to the American people. Our country itself would be under threat and it was very nearly under threat." We'll start Tuesday's "Sound of Ideas" talking about the war with Iran, including how we got here and what happens next.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) decision to rescind the 2009 Greenhouse Gas Endangerment Finding is drawing sharp rebuke from scientists and environmental advocates, but the decision may not withstand challenges in the courts.

She frequently joins Joel on "News and Views," and joined today to talk about Donald Trump's legal battles and the current case being heard by the Supreme Court. Joel Heitkamp is joined by Laurie, and later on, his sister, former United States Senator, former Attorney General, and State Tax Commissioner for North Dakota, Heidi Heitkamp, to have a conversation about the breaking Supreme Court ruling on tariffs. The Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump’s far-reaching global tariffs on Friday, handing him a significant loss on an issue crucial to his economic agenda. The 6-3 decision centers on tariffs imposed under an emergency powers law, including the sweeping “reciprocal” tariffs he levied on nearly every other country. Read more at KFGO.com.

There's speculation that US President Donald Trump is about to launch a major bombing campaign against Iran. US aircraft have been moving towards the Middle East, and a Washington DC source has told international media there's a 90 percent chance of war in coming weeks. Waikato University's Al Gillespie says it's entirely possible, given Donald Trump's desire to show strength. But he says it could have major consequences. "Everyone's thinking Venezuela - like, you cut the head off the snake, but here, it's a very big snake. If you removed the Ayatollah, you're likely to have problems with the Revolutionary Guard."

John McGinnis, law professor at Northwestern University and author of Why Democracy Needs the Rich, examines constitutional design, democratic stability, and the accelerating force of artificial intelligence. Drawing on the Federalist Papers, Tocqueville, and public choice theory, he argues that a realistic understanding of politics is essential to preserving both liberty and effective state capacity. McGinnis traces his intellectual formation to a "hard-headed realism" learned early in life and later reinforced by the American founding. At the center of his thinking is a practical constitutional question: how to build sufficient state capacity while preventing its abuse. He emphasizes the importance of an entrenched constitution that is difficult to amend, arguing that stability enables long-term planning and protects society from short-term political passions. Several themes shape the discussion: Public choice and political incentives. Politics does not operate in a purely public-spirited way; concentrated interests often organize more effectively than diffuse ones. Understanding this dynamic is essential for evaluating policy debates. Historical perspective as stabilizer. Many contemporary political phenomena appear unprecedented but are not. From Andrew Jackson to the present, democratic politics has repeatedly unsettled elites while preserving constitutional continuity. Technology as the dominant variable. McGinnis argues that AI will overshadow most current political disputes. As a general cognitive tool, it will be embedded across sectors, reshaping law, education, national security, and economic organization. Comparative advantage in an AI world. As machines assume cognitive tasks, human value will shift toward persuasion, judgment, and relational skills. Professionals must rethink where they add distinctive value. Education under acceleration. The coexistence of AI-enabled and AI-restricted learning may become necessary to preserve independent thinking while leveraging technological capability. The civic role of the wealthy. In Why Democracy Needs the Rich, McGinnis contends that wealthy individuals diversify democratic discourse, counterbalance concentrated interests, support minority rights movements, and fund public goods such as universities and museums. Their independence allows them to take risks others cannot. The episode also addresses rising student anxiety, the erosion of historical literacy, and the long-term question of meaning in a world where work may change substantially. McGinnis maintains that constitutional stability, plural centers of influence, and technological leadership remain central to American resilience. This conversation offers a grounded framework for thinking about democracy, incentives, and technological acceleration. It situates current debates within a longer historical arc while identifying AI as the structural force most likely to define the next decade.

The New START treaty, signed by the United States and Russia in 2010, was a nuclear arms reduction treaty which has now expired. US President Donald Trump has now called for a brand new nuclear treaty, prompting fears of a new global arms race. International Law Professor Al Gillespie told Andrew Dickens, "Mr. Trump is the one who let it void, he was saying, well, it's not fair that only America has these restraints in Russia. "He wanted other countries like China to also have restraints, but China wasn't interested." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Law of the Land: Sovereign Citizens Recently, there have been reports of people in Northeast Ohio claiming to be sovereign citizens, particularly when interacting with the police. At the highest level, people who identify as sovereign citizens generally refuse to follow laws, reject court rulings and believe they are not required to comply with federal, state and local authorities. This has been reported to show up as refusing to pay taxes, rejecting driver's licenses, filing frivolous lawsuits, and creating counterfeit documents, among other things. In Monday's installment of our "Law of the Land" series on the "Sound of Ideas," where we look at how laws affect our every day lives, we're focusing on this anti-government set of beliefs. The ideas are prominent enough that they've gotten the attention of the Ohio Statehouse, where two representatives have proposed legislation aimed at discouraging people from refusing to identify themselves to police, while driving. Guests: - Eric Taylor, Sergeant, Parma Heights Police Department - Raymond Ku, Law Professor, Case Western Reserve University School of Law - Ric Simmons, Law Professor, The Ohio State University Michael E. Moritz College of Law School Funding Proposals Many homeowners had sticker shock when their property tax valuations landed in mailboxes last year. Taxes in some municipalities increased more than 20%, which has led to lawmakers working on how to provide property tax relief for Ohioans. But this has the potential to cause complications for school districts across the state, who rely heavily on property taxes for the majority of their funding. Several districts in Northeast Ohio have already posed new ideas on how to fund their schools, one of which is a new income tax. Ideastream's Education Reporter Conor Morris joins the "Sound of Ideas" on Monday to talk about this topic, and share some of the reporting he's done across the region. Guests: - Conor Morris, Education Reporter, Ideastream Public Media - Julie Erwin, Treasurer, New Philadelphia City Schools

Podcast Guest Professor Paul Bergman easily expresses a kind of joy and delight he has enjoyed in his over 40 years as a Professor at the UCLA School of Law. As retired and now with the status of Emeritus, he continues to allow his students at the Law School to contemplate their upcoming profession in a special light. Listen and you will hear from a pioneering educator who chartered new directions in how to teach law with great creativity. He added also a most crucial element; a determination to have his students see the practice of law as helping people at a most difficult time in their life. Bergman insists that his students understand their role as advocates for their clients so that theymay have a better life. In general his contribution to the UCLA School of Law, which was transformative, was the idea of developing clinical education where real cases are used as teaching tools, dissected and analyzed, with role playing. An evolution from this idea came his next innovation based on his enthusiasm for films to present famous courtroom scenes in movies in his classes. Bergman discovered that using these movie scenes had a certain power in preparing future Lawyers for courtroom experiences. Today, Professor Paul Bergman is as active as ever, continuing to teach a class at the Law School, writing books and bringing his creative approach to classes he teaches in the community. He is the Author of 15 books including THE COURTROOM GOES TO THE MOVIES.

Robert Lawless is a Law Professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.Professor Lawless is one of the country's leading experts on bankruptcy and consumer debt. In this conversation, he explains how the student loan crisis was created, why student loans are treated differently from almost every other type of debt, and how a series of legal and political decisions made them nearly impossible to discharge.Lawless walks through the history of bankruptcy law and shows how, over time, student loans moved from being treated like credit card debt to becoming a lifelong obligation. What began as a temporary restriction slowly hardened into a system where borrowers are expected to carry debt indefinitely, even when repayment is no longer realistic.He challenges the common belief that bankruptcy is a sign of economic collapse. During the pandemic, bankruptcy filings dropped sharply, not because people were better off, but because fear, uncertainty, and temporary relief masked deeper problems. Debt, he explains, works on a delay. The consequences often appear years later.Throughout the conversation, Lawless reframes bankruptcy as a tool meant to deal with failure in a functional way. Bankruptcy does not create money, jobs, or growth. It recognizes reality when there is not enough to go around. In that sense, it acts more like a hospital than a punishment.He also proposes a clear and practical solution to the student loan problem. Allow student loans to be discharged in bankruptcy after a five-year waiting period. Those who can pay would still pay. Those who cannot would have a path forward.This conversation is not about ideology or slogans. It is about how the system actually works, why it ended up this way, and what it would take to fix it.EPISODE LINKS:Robert Lawless's Website: https://rlawless.web.illinois.edu/Robert Lawless's UIUC Website: https://law.illinois.edu/faculty-research/faculty-profiles/robert-m-lawless/Debt's Grip by Robert Lawless et al: https://amzn.to/3LJAJef‘Too Little Too Late': Bankruptcy Booms Among Older Americans: https://archive.is/jfpFSBlacks Face Bias in Bankruptcy, Study Suggests: https://archive.is/XAI8UCredit Slips Blog: https://creditslips.org/Matt Levine's Money Stuff: https://www.bloomberg.com/account/newsletters/money-stuffConsider Supporting UsIf you enjoy our talk show and videos, your support means the world to us!

President Donald Trump threatened on social media Thursday to invoke the Insurrection Act to stop resistance to ICE activity in Minnesota. United States presidents have used the act about 30 times in the past, according to NPR. The most recent was in 1992. That year, President George H.W. Bush invoked the law to quell riots in Los Angeles after four police officers were acquitted in the beating of Rodney King. Trump has talked before about using the law to support immigration enforcement. For perspective on the law, MPR News host Nina Moini talked with University of Minnesota law professor Ilan Wurman, who specializes in Constitutional law and presidential power.

Reddit's launched a High Court challenge to Australia's pioneering social media ban for under-16s. The country's new law, which sets a mandatory age limit of 16 or older for accounts on certain platforms, including Reddit, took effect on Wednesday. Reddit's case argues the policy has serious implications for privacy and political rights. New South Wales University Law Professor Rosalind Dixon says Reddit isn't a bad plaintiff. "If they can show that young people's political communication is burdened or that adults learning from young people and hearing from them is burdened, they're up and running."

This week, we're looking at potential fallout for gun owners from an unexpected area: immigration. Earlier this month, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) issued a stay on an emergency basis in Noem v. Perdomo. Justice Brett Kavanaugh's statement in that case inspired UC Law Professor Rory Little to write a piece for SCOTUSblog on its potential implications in areas beyond immigration enforcement, including firearms law. He joins the show to elaborate on why he finds Kavanaugh's reasoning dangerous. Little said Kavanaugh's holding that immigration agents could use a person's apparent race, accent, and location as justification to detain them is troubling. He argued the idea that agents should be able to involuntarily stop and question somebody based on the idea that some percentage of similarly situated people may have broken the law could be turned on all sorts of people. He used gun shows as a prime example, arguing they primarily attract white men and can sometimes be the site of illegal sales. He argued an administration taking an aggressive approach to federal gun law enforcement could use Kavanaugh's logic to detain and question everyone at a gun show in hopes of catching the few that may be breaking the law. Little said that moving from a probable cause standard for detentions that relies on individualized suspicion to one based on demographics or probabilities would have far-reaching consequences for all sorts of Americans. He argued it's difficult to see how Kavanaugh's logic could be contained to immigration either, though he also emphasized Perdomo is still at a preliminary stage and other members of the majority haven't fully articulated their view on the matter.
