  • Intelligent commentary by experts in law. I trust them more than most commentary because sometimes they are boring and get into the weeds and details. They aren't talking to be sensational and get clicks. They act and speak like professionals.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Trump in a Firing Mood Eyes Alito’s Supreme Court Seat to Show Him the Door?!
Q: Do you see the White House, would you put it past the White House to actively try to push Alito out in the next few months? And what do you think Alito's reaction to that would be?
Graves says Alito may be considering retirement, potentially in exchange for an attractive future role, and that a lame-duck period could offer an opportunity for Trump to appoint a replacement.
Trump in a Firing Mood Eyes Alito’s Supreme Court Seat to Show Him the Door?!
Q: What's this case about, Lisa?
Graves says the FCC expanded eligibility for discounted political advertising rates to super PACs, and the Supreme Court allowed the rule to take effect before the election.
Justice Kagan Blows the Whistle on Roberts’ Court and Trump!!!
Q: Take it from there and how they applied what this made up fiction, this ever-changing, shifting, shape-shifting Purcell doctrine.
Graves argues that the Court has applied the Purcell principle inconsistently, blocking some election-map changes as too close to an election while allowing other changes that affect voting rules and representation.
Justice Kagan Blows the Whistle on Roberts’ Court and Trump!!!
Q: Why is Kagan speaking out in October as the term already starts rather waiting for the summer months? What do you think it means? Who's your audience for this?
Graves says Kagan's remarks may have come in response to a question rather than as a planned part of her speech, and that they reflect the real-world effects of the Court's voting decisions during an election season.
Supreme Court Chief Justice Caught in Voting Scandal | Unprecedented
Q: What is your assessment of how the Roberts Court has handled the Voting Rights Act in recent cases?
The panel argues that the Court has undermined enforcement provisions crucial to minority voting protections, with Roberts playing a pivotal role in steering decisions that align with a broader partisan map strategy.
