David Lat is a lawyer-turned-writer, who publishes a weekly newsletter on Substack titled “Original Jurisdiction.” He joins Preet to discuss the federal judiciary, Trump’s many trials, and the free speech controversies roiling universities and law schools around the country.
Plus, what would a Trump DOJ look like the second time around? How will SCOTUS’ decision to consider the presidential immunity issue affect Trump’s trial calendar? And can an AI chatbot testify in court?
