About this episode
As the term rushes to an end, the Supreme Court wades eagerly into a mooted case in order to close the door on the "independent legislature doctrine." But does it matter? David and Sarah disagree. Also:
-Nobody expects the Marbury v Madison citations
-What counts as threats online? (Or: Is recklessness subjective?)
-NYT v Sullivan holds strong
-Supreme Court bingo: The Countdown
-Supreme (court) ignorance
-"You only defend justices Thomas and Alito because they're conservative." Nope.
Show Notes:
-Marquette Law School Poll
-Moore v. Harper
-Counterman v. Colorado
