The Trump executive order on birthright citizenship has been banging around the lower federal courts for months now, with court after court opining on its unconstitutionality and issuing injunctions against it that span the nation.  The Supreme Court took cert on the question of whether such national injunctions are appropriate, and if not, how the relief that appears indicated can be offered.  Along the way questions of the merits poked their way through, with interesting results.  In this episode you will hear from the justices and the attorneys, and you will hear Professor Amar doing his Howard Cosell halftime highlights imitation, opining on their arguments, responses, and questions, and offering a holistic approach to the case as well as some new theories on how to think about citizenship in this context.  A “clip episode” as only Amarica's Constitution does it.  CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges from podcast.njsba.com.

With so many issues stemming from President Trump's executive orders now before the Supreme Court, it's tough to know where to begin. So Andrew and Mary start this week with the arguments heard last Thursday from Mary's ICAP team on the courts issuing national injunctions in several birthright citizenship cases. They recap Thursday's highlights and note the Justices' interest in getting to the merits of the birthright issue. Then, they talk through two SCOTUS decisions from Friday and Monday: one on the Trump administration using the Alien Enemies Act to ‘extract' Venezuelan migrants, and the other on their attempt to revoke the protected status of Venezuelans. Last up, Andrew and Mary turn to the specifics of a few of the immigration removal cases, as hearings continue and the lack of due process continues to be challenged.Want to listen to this show without ads?

Ed, Rob, and Jeremy took some time from Wednesday's BBMS to debate how Major League Baseball's Hall of Fame should judge their players. Pete Rose's removal from MLB's banned list has some questioning if he really deserves to be in the Hall even if he is now eligible. Should players only be able to make it in based on their on-the-field merits?

Morgan had not turned 45 yet, so she hadn't received a screening colonoscopy for colorectal cancer. But when she noticed blood in her stool at age 41, she did exactly what she should have and sought medical evaluation. After months of missteps became years of dismissive care, she realized it was time for a second opinion at Siteman Cancer Center. With the help of WashU Medicine radiation oncologist Hyun Kim, MD, co-director of the Young-Onset Colorectal Cancer Program, Morgan was given a treatment plan that provided the care she needed. In this episode, we discuss her persistence and dedication to getting herself the best care for her young-onset colorectal cancer diagnosis.   “This is Cancer” is brought to you by Siteman Cancer Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, and produced at Spot Content Studio in St. Louis, MO.   For more information on topics discussed in this episode, go to: https://siteman.wustl.edu/treatment/cancer-types/colorectal/young-onset-colorectal-cancer-program/ https://siteman.wustl.edu/treatment/cancer-types/colorectal/prevention-and-screening/  https://siteman.wustl.edu/doctor/kim-hyun/ https://getscreenednow.com/colon-cancer/ https://getscreenednow.com/insurance/

In Berkeley Talks podcast episode 222, UC Berkeley Law Dean Erwin Chemerinsky and Brian Fitzpatrick, the Milton R. Underwood Chair in Free Enterprise at Vanderbilt Law School in Nashville, Tennessee, debate the merits of originalism in constitutional interpretation. Originalism is a theory that argues that the U.S. Constitution should be interpreted based on its original meaning, as understood at the time of its adoption nearly 250 years ago, rather than evolving with society. Arguments for originalism in this debate include: Originalism limits judicial discretion and prevents judges from imposing their own political views under the guise of constitutional interpretation.It promotes certainty, predictability and stability in law by relying on a fixed meaning of constitutional texts.Changes to the Constitution should be left to the formal amendment process, rather than judicial interpretation.Arguments against originalism include: Originalism is often unworkable in practice because it's difficult to determine the original meaning or intent of constitutional provisions, and historical context can be challenging to fully understand. The theory ties modern society to the views and values of earlier generations, potentially limiting constitutional rights and guarantees to outdated perspectives.It allows judges to impose their own biases under the guise of historical interpretation.This symposium, which took place on March 17, 2025, was UC Berkeley Law's inaugural Thomas David and Judith Swope Clark Symposium on Constitutional Interpretation. A video of the conversation will be posted soon on UC Berkeley Law's YouTube page.

Jamie and Matt get together ostensibly for an emergency podcast discussing the Commanders' trade for Deebo Samuel, but it quickly degenerates into a podcast debating whether or not the trade for Deebo Samuel is the kind of thing that warrants an emergency pod. (Also, Matt quite possibly calls him "Deebo Samuels" the whole way through because Matt is now officially 800 years old.)Also, please note that we had some technical difficulties with this one, so it cuts off a little more abruptly than usual. Hopefully that's the only problem.

Houston's legal market wasn't always one of the most competitive arenas in Big Law. But today, 14 of the 15 largest law firms by revenue have an office in Space City. The market's growth has mirrored the explosion of the country's energy industry over the past decade or so. And the competition among law firms continues to evolve, as the biggest firms fight for their share of a market once dominated by local firms. On this episode of On the Merits, Bloomberg Law's Roy Strom spoke with Nick Dhesi, the managing partner of Latham & Watkins' Houston office, which is credited as the first to truly crack the once-insular market. Latham in February celebrated its 15th year in Houston. The firm has more than 120 lawyers in the city, the fifth-largest presence among the 100 largest firms by revenue, according to Leopard Solutions. Other firms, such as Kirkland & Ellis, Sidley Austin, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, and Gibson Dunn & Crutcher, have piled into the market, lured by its dominant oil and gas scene. Just last year, Paul Weiss made an unsuccessful effort to open in Houston, Bloomberg Law reported, which included an attempt to poach from Latham. Latham, the second-largest firm by revenue, now has a roughly $2 billion energy and infrastructure practice, led by Houston partner Justin Stolte. In the podcast, Dhesi talks about Latham's main competitors now, what a "dirt lawyer" is, and how the Texas legal market will respond to an economy that's branching out of the traditional oil and gas deals that powered its growth. He also discusses how the Houston and Dallas legal markets are different, and what Texas law schools have been doing to supply more high-caliber lawyers to all the top firms clamoring for talent in the state.

The Merits of the Month of Sha^baan / with sheikh Bilal Homaysi

People are always finding new ways to listen to music, from vinyls and cassettes to stolen downloads and paid streaming services. So, how is the music business holding up? Who's making the money today? And what's in store for musicians with the growth of artificial intelligence? On this episode of our podcast, On the Merits, Bloomberg Law's Roy Strom dives into those questions and more with Sid Fohrman, chair of the music industry practice at Paul Hastings. The Los Angeles lawyer, who joined the firm from Willkie Farr & Gallagher last month, has advised on deals involving Lady Gaga, David Bowie's estate, and Taylor Swift. He's also a musician himself who packed his bags early in his legal career and headed from Chicago to Hollywood to take a chance following his passion. Fohrman has had a seat at the table as the music industry figured out how to make your favorite songs ubiquitous. The real challenge is how to make money—and how to make the money go where it should. That's where Fohrman thinks the industry can do a better job. Do you have feedback on this episode of On The Merits? Give us a call and leave a voicemail at 703-341-3690.

This is episode 69. We're discussing sex games. We're sorry. (Except Joe...Joe isn't sorry at all.) Sandi has joined us to try to provide a little bit of maturity to the topic; we'll let you decide if she succeeded. This is an adults-only episode (and we mean it this time), but we won't be offended if you decide to give this one a miss. Just come back next month, please? I promise we won't do it again. We find a series of weird connections between sex games and big wargaming companies - Columbia Games, Avalon Hill, and Victory Games - not to mention well-known designers like Sid Sackson and Wolfgang Kramer, and even Nolan Bushnell from Atari. Mike asks, "Is there anything more sexy than puns?" Young Mike learns about the irrepressible dynamo that was Dr. Ruth. A Brief Debate Upon the Merits of Identifying Breasts by Means of Nipple Shape An article about Lacerunner, which is not a game about sex and is not likely to ever be released, but sounds really interesting regardless.

In Crystal McKinney v. Combs, et al. (Case: 24-cv-03931), Plaintiff Crystal McKinney filed suit under the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Prevention Act (GMVA), N.Y.C. Admin. Code § 8-901 et seq., alleging that Defendant Sean Combs subjected her to sexual assault, physical abuse, and forcible drugging, resulting in lifelong injuries. In opposition to the Defendants' Motion to Dismiss her Amended Complaint (ECF No. 36), the Plaintiff argues that her claims were sufficiently pled and should proceed to litigation. On January 8, 2025, McKinney requested a retroactive extension for submitting her opposition, which the Court addressed with an order on January 10, 2025. McKinney asserts that the Defendants' dismissal efforts are meritless, and she should be granted the opportunity to litigate her claims fully.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.621909.43.0.pdf

Donald Trump's presidential election had market commenters rushing to conclude that the new administration would yield a flood of corporate dealmaking. But the widely anticipated Trump Bump for deals is already facing hurdles. Interest rates have steadily risen as the fear of inflation remains. Markets are buffeted by every piece of news about potential tariffs. And stock prices have faltered from their initial post-election surge. With Trump now in the White House, has the optimism for a dealmaking surge already withered? On this episode of On the Merits, Bloomberg Law's Roy Strom spoke with Jennifer Perkins and David Klein, M&A partners at Kirkland & Ellis, the busiest law firm for corporate transactions last year. Kirkland advised on more than $427 billion in global mergers and acquisitions over the year, surpassing rivals like Latham & Watkins, Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom, and Freshfields. Perkins and Klein told Roy the “floodgates” for M&A may not be open right away, but they both expect a strong year for dealmaking ahead. They discussed a backlog of companies private equity funds are looking to offload, how a reinvigorated IPO market could further fuel deals, and how law firms are evolving as private capital markets expand.

This week we touch upon the struggle that presents itself for memoirists who can't or won't let the past stay in the past, especially when other people wish you would. Guest Susan Lieu shares powerfully in this week's show about how her mother became the central force and inspiration for her work after she died due to complications from a tummy tuck. In the process of writing about her mother and making sense of what happened, Susan discovered so much about her family's silence, their trauma, and about her living parent—her father. If you are looking for a case study for how memoir heals and reveals, don't miss this episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Full Text of ReadingsTuesday of the Third Week of Advent Lectionary: 193The Saint of the day is Saint Hildegard of BingenSaint Hildegard of Bingen's Story Abbess, artist, author, composer, mystic, pharmacist, poet, preacher, theologian—where to begin in describing this remarkable woman? Born into a noble family, she was instructed for ten years by the holy woman Blessed Jutta. When Hildegard was 18, she became a Benedictine nun at the Monastery of Saint Disibodenberg. Ordered by her confessor to write down the visions that she had received since the age of three, Hildegard took ten years to write her Scivias (Know the Ways). Pope Eugene III read it, and in 1147, encouraged her to continue writing. Her Book of the Merits of Life and Book of Divine Works followed. She wrote over 300 letters to people who sought her advice; she also composed short works on medicine and physiology, and sought advice from contemporaries such as Saint Bernard of Clairvaux. Hildegard's visions caused her to see humans as “living sparks” of God's love, coming from God as daylight comes from the sun. Sin destroyed the original harmony of creation; Christ's redeeming death and resurrection opened up new possibilities. Virtuous living reduces the estrangement from God and others that sin causes. Like all mystics, Hildegard saw the harmony of God's creation and the place of women and men in that. This unity was not apparent to many of her contemporaries. Hildegard was no stranger to controversy. The monks near her original foundation protested vigorously when she moved her monastery to Bingen, overlooking the Rhine River. She confronted Emperor Frederick Barbarossa for supporting at least three antipopes. Hildegard challenged the Cathars, who rejected the Catholic Church claiming to follow a more pure Christianity. Between 1152 and 1162, Hildegard often preached in the Rhineland. Her monastery was placed under interdict because she had permitted the burial of a young man who had been excommunicated. She insisted that he had been reconciled with the Church and had received its sacraments before dying. Hildegard protested bitterly when the local bishop forbade the celebration of or reception of the Eucharist at the Bingen monastery, a sanction that was lifted only a few months before her death. In 2012, Hildegard was canonized and named a Doctor of the Church by Pope Benedict XVI. Her liturgical feast is celebrated on September 17. Reflection Pope Benedict spoke about Hildegard of Bingen during two of his general audiences in September 2010. He praised the humility with which she received God's gifts, and the obedience she gave Church authorities. He praised too the “rich theological content” of her mystical visions that sum up the history of salvation from creation to the end of time. During his papacy, Pope Benedict XVI said, “Let us always invoke the Holy Spirit, so that he may inspire in the Church holy and courageous women like Saint Hildegard of Bingen who, developing the gifts they have received from God, make their own special and valuable contribution to the spiritual development of our communities and of the Church in our time.” Click here for more on Saint Hildegard of Bingen!
