  • Is any of this legal? The 2026 Mailbag Episode [TEASER]
    Feb 3 2026

    5-4 answers your questions about whether ICE agents can be prosecuted, why it’s worth knowing your rights, if the president can cancel the midterms and…whether there’s revolutionary potential in tax evasion. As always, this is not legal advice™.

    Dec 16 2025

    A movie about a dipshit who prays his way to the Supreme Court. It’s worse than you imagine.

  • Trump v. Orr
    Dec 9 2025

    Trans erasure. Anti-intellectualism. Culture war. Moral panic. These are a few of the Supreme Court’s favorite things!

  • Fire at Will: Trump’s Illegal War in the Caribbean [TEASER]
    Nov 25 2025

    These days, three degrees of separation from a drug dealer is all it takes to get you drone struck by the U.S. government in Venezuela. And look, maybe these extrajudicial killings aren’t exactly legal, but the bigger problem for all you sissy justice lovers out there is that this administration doesn’t care about the law.

  • Department of Homeland Security v. Thuraissigiam
    Nov 18 2025

    *** An earlier version of this episode incorrectly referred to the asylum officers who conduct credible fear interviews as border patrol agents. ***


    If the government is acting all authoritarian-y, detaining you in violation of your rights, there’s a basic assumption in the Constitution that you can use “The Great Writ” of habeas corpus to challenge that unlawful behavior. But Samuel Alito would like to remind you what happens when you ASS U ME. Something something immigrants, something something you’re wrong. So yeah, Constitution HUMILIATED.
