Joshua Windham on ICE, Surveillance, Property Rights & the Future of LibertyWhat happens when government power collides with individual rights? And are America's courts still willing to defend freedom when it matters most?In this bonus episode of the Yaron Brook Show, Yaron sits down with Institute for Justice senior attorney Joshua Windham to discuss ICE detentions, government surveillance, property rights, economic liberty, and the growing battle over the Fourth Amendment.From wrongful detentions and warrantless searches to attacks on economic freedom, this conversation explores how fragile liberty becomes when courts defer to government power — and why state constitutions may become the next major defense of individual rights.The episode also dives into constitutional interpretation, judicial philosophy, Scalia's legacy, asylum law, Weimar Germany parallels, and the future of the Supreme Court.If you care about freedom, constitutional limits, and the future of individual rights in America, this is a must-watch conversation.Watch Now: https://youtube.com/live/SXMjmDf0ClsAbout: Joshua Windham is a senior attorney at the Institute for Justice and co-director of IJ's Project on the Fourth Amendment.

I spoke with an accomplished attorney and innovative law professor Rodger Citron of the Touro Law School about the complex relationships between history and... yes, law. We talked about how the Nuremberg trials of Nazi criminals after World War II shaped the US legal philosophy. We dug into themes like the tensions between originalism and evolving interpretations of the Constitution and how judges' personal histories impact supposedly objective rulings. We discussed Judge Irving Kaufman (famous for sentencing Julius and Ethel Rosenberg to death in 1951) and how his complex legacy offers insight into the human dimension of the judiciary. We also discussed a recent Supreme Court case, Mallory v. Norfolk Southern Railway Company, to illustrate the evolving (and surprising) tensions between originalism and "Living Constitution" approaches to law. With legal battles over the US elections underway and a bloody land war raging in Europe, this is a timely topic for anyone eager to understand the implications of history to contemporary institutions and events.

Digging a Hole: The Legal Theory Podcast

Dear listeners, this season has been riveting, and it's been a little controversial. Some of you have written in (if you listen to this episode, you'll see we've graced certain aggrieved parties with a response). We see you, we hear you, and boy, do we have a classic legal theory podcast for you. Today's guest is Kunal Parker, Professor and Dean's Distinguished Scholar at the University of Miami School of Law, here to talk about his fabulous new book The Turn to Process: American Legal, Political, and Economic Thought, 1870–1970. If you liked his first book–and if you didn't, you're probably a wretched anti-foundationalist–you'll love this spiritual sequel.  We begin by asking Parker to lay out his thesis, which is, surprise, surprise, that there was a turn from substance to process in economic, political, and most saliently for us, legal thought in the twentieth century. Next, we discuss how much the phenomenon Parker describes is its own thing versus concomitant with American pragmatism and the disciplinification of the modern research university. We make sure everything gets filtered through big important legal thinkers–Holmes and Fortas, Frankfurter and Bickel–before turning to today's neo-formalistic approaches to the law: neo-Aristotelians, the new private law theorists, et al. (and if we've missed anyone, we can guarantee that our listeners will let us know). This podcast is generously supported by Themis Bar Review. Referenced Readings “Radical Mismatch” by Stephen Holmes Rules for the Direction of the Mind by René Descartes “Mr. Justice Black and the Living Constitution” by Charles Reich Tocqueville's Nightmare: The Administrative State Emerges in America, 1900-1940 by Daniel Ernst On Democracy by Robert Dahl The Public and its Problems by John Dewey Age of Fracture by Daniel Rodgers
