OA418: D.C. Circuit Panel's Multiple Bad Court Thingies
About this episode
Our main story today is how the DC Circuit Court has helped Trump successfully avoid accountability until after the election. You may remember Don McGahn from such investigations as Robert Mueller's. McGahn refused to cooperate at all with the House's impeachment investigation, under the complete nonsense theory of absolute immunity. Andrew breaks down what happened and gives a signature deep dive on House subpoena power!
Our first segment is some good news and "Andrew was right" about the Flynn case. It could mean the Return of the OA Brief!
