Summary

Following the attempted assassination of Trump, Al and James discuss its effect on the race, the nomination of JD Vance, the Republican convention, and whether Biden’s recent press and hail-mary plans can shake things up. Then, they welcome legal scholar Pam Karlan to analyze Judge Cannon’s dismissal of Trump’s charges for mishandling classified docs, defend the need for special counsel appointments, and explore the avenues the Justice Department has to reopen the case. They also break down the Supreme Court’s assault on the rule of law and call for a return of coherent legal reasoning and impartiality before it’s too late.
