    32: Kidnapping The Kaiser

    (WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) On December 31, 1918, Colonel Luke Lea of the 114th Field Artillery Regiment handed his commanding officer a request for leave from his post in Allied-occupied Luxembourg. He would not say where he was going or what he intended to do, though he assured the general he had nothing to worry about. General Spaulding called it the "strangest request for leave he had ever read," but approved it anyway. After all, Luke Lea was not just an excellent officer, he was also a successful lawyer, newspaper publisher, and one-term senator from Tennessee. How much trouble could he possibly get into..... Grab a baseball and an ashtray (trust me). Reb is breaking down State v. Wallace B. Davis, Luke Lea, & Luke Lea, Jr. (1932), but more importantly, all of the unbelievable chaos that happened before it. Follow @RebuttalPod on Instagram and Twitter!

    31: The Children: Alone In America

    (WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) In America, unaccompanied children are forced to represent themselves in immigration court. That's right. Children as young as infants to teenagers. Each year, thousands of immigrant children are placed into court proceedings in which government prosecutors seek to deport them unless those children can prove they have a right to stay in the United States. While the U.S. government may provide pillows and booster seats for children who are too small for the chairs in immigration court, the government does NOT have to give them an attorney to protect their rights. In this episode, Reb tells these children's stories and interviews attorneys Amanda Doroshow and Lauren Esterle with the Acacia Center for Justice who have firsthand experience advocating for these children both inside the courtroom and beyond. LINKS TO RESOURCES AND FELLOWSHIP OPPORTUNITIES: https://acaciajustice.org/ https://acaciajustice.org/careers/students/ https://justicecorps.org/justice-fellowship/ Thank you to the Acacia Center for Justice, Amanda Doroshow, and Lauren Esterle for making this episode a reality.
