Public Disclosure of Privates Facts (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dear listeners,Donald Trump tried to ban CNN, MSNOW and Politico from the White House and, as Trump himself predicted, he was almost immediately ordered by a federal court to let those outlets back in. This area of law is well trod by now: The president has no obligation to give special access like a one-on-one interview to any media outlet, but he can’t revoke otherwise-broadly offered access because he doesn’t like an outlet’s reporting. He also needs to give some kind of due process when revo

We discuss how judges press juries to agree, and why they maybe shouldn’t.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.serioustrouble.show The Tate brothers want bail pending their extradition proceedings to the United Kingdom, which is a long shot, not just because their social media is full of statements about how they are flight risks. “You can’t ban me from driving, I have nine drivers licenses. You can’t freeze my passport, I have four.” Also this week: trouble for Rep. Max Miller, US Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s new special grand jury, oppositio
