Origins: From Kings to Executives

Feb 27, 2025

David French is off doing David French things, so Sarah Isgur takes over the podcast and invites Judge Charles Eskridge of the Southern District of Texas and Judge Brantley Starr of the Northern District of Texas to discuss all things Texas—and the powers of the executive branch.

The Agenda:

  • What’s exciting about Locke?
  • Here comes the Old Whig
  • King of England vs. the American president
  • Appeal to heaven
  • Second terms are bad news
  • The shallow state
  • Departmentalism and lawsuits
