About this episode
Sarah Isgur and David French invite Richard Primus, author of The Oldest Constitutional Question: Enumeration and Federal Power , to discuss his unorthodox argument that the constitutional system does place limits on Congress, but those limits don’t actually come from the enumeration of powers—and never have. But first: a grab bag of legal cases and responding to Attorney General Pam Bondi’s very anti-conservative remarks. The Agenda: — Will hate speech be prosecuted ? — Partisan divides on the interim docket —Listener insights on delegated powers — Elite law schools and Rehnquist v. Souter clerk hiring —Granting mootness on a SCOTUS case —The oldest constitutional question —Originalism and the 10th Amendment Advisory Opinions is a production of The Dispatch , a digital media company covering politics, policy, and culture from a non-partisan, conservative perspective.
