Episode 180: This Podcast Really Should Be Weekly…

September 29, 2020

We're not a biweekly show, we promise!  It just seems that way sometimes...like this week, when we are bringing you:

* Discussing the passing of Justice Ginsburg and potential implications of the Amy Coney Barrett nomination for national security and rule of law cases
* Breaking down the separate opinions enjoining IEEPA sanctions against WeChat (on First Amendment grounds) and TikTok (on IEEPA exception grounds)
* The FISC's 2019 Section 702 certification opinion and ongoing issues of compliance
* The Ninth Circuit's Moalin decision (finding statutory and Fourth Amendment problems with Section 215 bulk metadata collection)
* Trump's taxes: could someone with that sort of debt normally get a security clearance?
* Annals of the Bowe Berghdahl case: a military judge who had an eye on an immigration judgeship
* A new judge for the 9/11 trial

But skip all that if you are in the middle of debate prep, for we also have...a BINGO CARD for tonight!
