Amicus With Dahlia Lithwick | Law, justice, and the courts

Lithwick is erudite and is able to cut through the chaff. She illuminates the issues with a spotlight. However, some of her guests cannot stop the lawyer-speak which circles around and around without getting to the point. I can tell they are unaware sometimes that they are obfuscating, but Lithwick does her best to focus them into plaintalk and clarity. In the case of trained lawyers, employing the phrase “use your words” in a discussion needs a moderator moderating the conversation.

Take time for Dahlia.

This is my absolute go-to podcast for current, thoughtful, erudite legal commentary. As Dahlia says of Mark, it’s my “ride or die”.

This episode with Kim Lane Scheppele painted the precise picture I've had in my head this past week. The United States as Hungary. Victor Orban as the felon's model. What she had to tell us is terrifying and motivating. I'll be doing everything I can to help slow this attempt at demolishing our democracy.
