Summary

Rudy Giuliani has come out of retirement for the first time in 28 years to litigate on behalf of the Trump campaign. To say his gears were a little rusty would be the understatement of the century: Giuliani walked into court this week and couldn’t remember the name of the judge, couldn’t remember the name of his opposing counsel, couldn’t remember the meaning of “opacity,” and couldn’t argue the proper standard of review in the case. As our podcast hosts remind us, effective lawyers not only know how to make a constructive argument, but also tailor their advocacy to the humanity of the judge. Giuliani did neither of these things. After catching up on the latest election litigation disputes, David and Sarah discuss imminent lawless action in the context of the First Amendment and two of their favorite television shows.

2:00.0	Yeah, I mean, maybe this is too much of a build up, but I thought it was really interesting that during the Amy Coney Barrett hearings.
2:08.0	Basically, the right kept begging the left to make her religion a big deal so that they could benefit from the backlash of the left making Amy Coney Barrett's religion a big deal.
2:20.0	And anything would do, right? If they asked any question about the specific church she went to, there was some questions raised in some very specific news outlets about this type of Catholicism that she practiced.
