No, Trump cannot end birthright citizenship "on day one." His arguments have been debunked for over a century. This is your deep dive on 14th Amendment jus soli!
We talk about what he might try anyway & how that's likely to fail. Bonus: Trump's loss in NY.

Good analysis of the ABC Trump defamation settlement from @lizdye.bsky.social and @andrewtorrez.bsky.social from their Law and Chaos Substack open.substack.com/pub/lawandch...
How did The Onion’s deal to buy Infowars fall apart? Listen to Liz and Andrew to find out what happened at the hearing @lizdye.bsky.social @andrewtorrez.bsky.social
Note to show listeners: We're still listening to Alex Jones's lawyer Foghorn Leghorn yell at the auctioneer. Judge Lopez will continue this hearing tomorrow.
So we'll drop the show on Wednesday so we can explain everything that happened in the Infowars case, because it's amazing. Sorry for delay.
Our @lizdye.bsky.social is the Alina Habba whisperer. How much is this do you remember??

Nope, but thanks for the heads up.

🧵 RUDY GIULIANI: A FOOL FOR A CLIENT
1/ Yesterday, America's Mayor missed a court-mandated deadline to respond to a motion for contempt.
Despite filing a (fraudulent) bankruptcy, Rudy has lots of lawyers. So WHY didn't he file anything? As it turns out...

Relevant to what we talked about on @lawandchaospod.bsky.social the other day, it's interesting that Seb Gorka remains tmk the only person hired in Trump 1 who actually might have lost a job due to not getting a security clearance.
Trump thinks by creating DOGE (or is it OOGE?), he can let Musk & Vivek quietly dismantle the government. Learn how we can keep tabs on & challenge what they’re doing. With @andrewtorrez.bsky.social, @lizdye.bsky.social & special guest @nationalsecuritylaw.org

On today’s show, @lizdye.bsky.social and @andrewtorrez.bsky.social break down all the goblin-lovin’ antics happening with Infowars. Then, @nationalsecuritylaw.org helps us understand if Trump can just hand out security clearances to Matt Gaetz & Tulsi Gabbard.

No, Trump did not try to protect the Capitol only to be thwarted by that wily Nancy Pelosi. Why are Trump’s lawyers repeating this obvious, easily-debunked lie in open court?
Learn why with @lizdye.bsky.social and @andrewtorrez.bsky.social!

The Supreme Court is back to wreak its particular brand of chaos. Meanwhile the FedSoc toddlers McConnell and Trump parked in the trial courts are doing their part to break shit.

That being said, the Law and Chaos Podcast has a chance to do the funniest thing ever if you know anyone who knows how to set up a GoFundMe.
Don't buy InfoWars or social media accounts or anything like that (although would buying his Twitter handle mean you got all his DMs? That'd be interesting.).
Today @lizdye.bsky.social and @andrewtorrez.bsky.social break down the Eric Adams indictment, with a focus on how Adams used foreign donations to wreck a progressive pro-democracy program in New York.
