From the Abraham Lincoln radio studio at the George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong

and Joe Getty.

The Armstrong and Getty Show.

So let's go to this hour.

We're going to have on our friend Tim Sandefur, who started on this show as a caller many, many, many years ago,

a guy we'd call Tim Maloyer, who whenever we were needing legal help on a question or he wanted to point out that we were incorrect about something,

he would call in as he is.

Especially on constitutional issues.

Yeah, brilliant guy and a fan favorite over the years.

So if you haven't heard Tim Maloyer stay tuned for him, what is he going to be talking about?

There is, well, the Supreme Court has signaled they are going to take another look at a precedent from the 80s, which is a somewhat obscure bit of administrative law, but it has had enormous historical impact.

The famous chevron decision that said more or less, hey, these administrative agencies, these unelected bureaucrats, they can do whatever they want.

And they're going to take another look at that. So the giant sprawling out of control power, the federal government could conceivably be squeezed just a little bit.

And we'll talk to Tim about that at the bottom of the hour.

On the topic of the Supreme Court, one of the more troubling things that has happened in recent memory and so many troubling things have happened is America losing its confidence in the Supreme Court.

That was a one institution that had been holding on to a majority of Americans believing, well, at least there, you know, not this other mess of crap that everything else is, these are people actually just trying to decide.

And a majority of us will go with their decisions, whether we like them or not. Well, that has gone away.

The latest numbers 62% of people say they have not very much or no confidence in the Supreme Court.

According to the latest polling that is driven by Democrats and most independence, but even among Republicans now who had held that number up for a very long time, the support is now 39% with confidence.

And I think that would seem looking at the numbers that when decisions go against us, whether or Democrats or Republicans, we think they're full of crap.

They couldn't have just decided this or at least in the modern era. They couldn't have decided this for good legal reasons.

You know, they're in the pocket of whoever. Right. And the most recent, now Steve, Steve Innscape of NPR was tweeting about this and of course he jumped to, in my mind, the complete wrong conclusion or at least only half of the right conclusion saying Republican confidence created around 2020 when the court didn't overturn the election Trump lost.
