Co-authors Jack Goldsmith and Bob Bauer join the podcast to discuss their book, After Trump: Reconstructing the Presidency, and the need to reform presidential power. But first, a protest and a dinner party at a Berkeley Law School dean's house. Did the location qualify as a public forum? Sarah and David evaluate.
The Agenda:
- Dean of Berkeley Law School and a Palestinian Protest: 1A protection?
- How to go about civil disobedience
- Reforming the Insurrection Act
- The need for bipartisan support in reforming presidential powers
- Did Donald Trump abuse the pardon power as president?
- Special counsels and the fear of rigging prosecutions
