Arkansas Woos Amy Coney Barrett With a Very Bad Ban
March 11, 2021 11:10 - 26 minutes - 43 MBArkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson signed a bill Tuesday that would ban all abortions in the state except those deemed a “medical emergency.” If it takes effect in August as planned, it'll be the most restrictive abortion ban in the country. Fortunately, legal challenges should be on the way. But is that what they want? In better news, the COVID-19 stimulus package has a lot of health-care goodies in it, and the Biden administration is out to undo Betsy DeVos' damage to campus sexual assault prot...

How to Bankrupt the Proud Boys
February 18, 2021 18:01 - 36 minutes - 34 MBThe impeachment trial was going so well! Alas, the Democrats managed to tie themselves into knots and fumble away the narrative. But all is not lost, thanks to a creative lawsuit that invokes the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871.

Hunting Nazis with the New Department of Justice
