You ready?

I was born ready.

Welcome to the advisory opinion podcast. This is David French with Sarah Isger and we are part of the dispatch media the dispatch.com.

I've been very lax and reminding all of our many, many thousands and thousands of listeners Sarah about our affiliation and that there's more than the advisory opinions podcast to the dispatch.

So please go to the dispatch.com. Check us out.

Here's your periodic reminder to also please review us on Apple podcast. We've been getting some great feedback and really appreciate it.

Now we had to call a little bit of an audible this morning because once again I was wrong. That's why I think we were both anticipating that the Supreme Court would issue an interesting opinion or two this morning.

It did not at 1002. David and I are like, uh, yeah, we're not talking about equitable discouragement on the podcast today, though it is definitely going to be the name of my garage band.

I would listen to that band. I will not read that opinion.

So we're going, but it's not like we lack for topics. So we're going to avail ourselves of Sarah's political organizing expertise to talk about the meaning and potential fallout or lack thereof of Trump's sparsely attended Tulsa rally.

We're going to talk about the Friday night massacre. Nope, nope, not Friday night massacre Saturday morning massacre. Nope, nope, Saturday night, finally massacre of in the firing of the US attorney from the Southern District of New York and what that means.

And then we're going to do something we haven't done, which I think is it's kind of fun. I am looking forward to it. We're going to talk about two pieces of commentary about last week.

And how people are processing a really momentous week at the Supreme Court last week.

And what it means. We're going to sort of, we're going to, we're going to save our assessment of the conservative legal movement more broadly until the term is over because we've got a lot of major cases yet to be decided.

But we're going to analyze some thoughtful commentary about what has happened. And we're going to wind up with the discussion of man, we're going way back. Well, not really way back. I re watched the Hunger Games series over the weekend. And I have thoughts. So we're going to have some bonus cultural commentary about Katniss Everdeen.

And with that, Sarah, you have organized, helped organize rallies. You have been a part of a presidential campaign that held public events on daily multite. I guess sometimes multiple times a day.

You better be multiple times a day. You try to pack those events in man.

So tell us what to think about what went down in Tulsa on Saturday night.

So, okay, let's back up to how presidential campaigns are organized. You have, you have your press team. I think that's what people think like all presidential campaigns are basically just one large press team.

Actually, a pretty small part of the team. You have your legal department, which is what I did for Romney's, oh, eight and 12 campaigns.

Polsters and stuff like that are actually usually outside the campaign. They run their own businesses. So they're kind of outside consultants considered senior strategists. They like popping and out and annoy everyone.

Same with the media buyers, things like that, the ad guys, the largest by far component of a presidential campaign is the political team.
