Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S2 E3: Wil Schroter, Startups.com

Startup veteran Wil Schroter is a family man, and now amateur carpenter. He spends a lot of his spare time, covered in sawdust and enjoying a balance of analog activities, away from digital life. He has spend 25 years as a startup CEO, and during that team, he learned that what he was best at was teaching people how to go through the startup process. For his 9th startup, he built Startups.com – a place to provide education and tools to help founders through the entire startup process – and this solution was catalyzed with the creation of a funding platform.

The Daily Signal - ‘I Think a Lot of People Don’t Realize How Much [Law-Enforcement Personnel] Care,’ Arizona Sheriff Says

Most people don’t understand the extent to which law enforcement and the Border Patrol become humanitarian and first-aid responders to illegal immigrants trying to enter the country, according to Sheriff Mark Lamb of Pinal County. I recently traveled to the U.S. Mexico border, and spoke with Sheriff Lamb, who serves an Arizona county about 60 miles from the border. Sheriff Lamb joins the podcast to talk about the largely unknown humanitarian role of law enforcement and the border patrol with illegal immigrants. Read the lightly edited interview, posted below, or listen on the podcast.


We also cover these stories:

  • A case about whether Philadelphia can exclude a Ctholic charity agency that won’t allow same-sex couples to adopt children will be heading to the Supreme Court.
  • Harvey Weinstein, who formerly produced films in Hollywood was found guilty on Monday of five charges tied to sexual assaults and faces up to 25 years in prison.
  • President Donald Trump is touring India and has been greeted with a large dose of spectacle.

Opening Arguments - OA363: Good News About Ex-Felons in Florida

Today's episode brings you some good news from the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals with respect to Florida's effort to restore the vote to felons who have completed their sentences -- and the Republicans' ongoing efforts to stop it. We also revisit the emoluments clause litigations pending in two jurisdictions as well as tackle a novel question from one of our listeners. You won't want to miss it!

We begin with a brief Andrew Was Wrong / Andrew Was Right segment regarding emoluments. Friend of the show Seth Barrett Tillman writes in to correct us on two procedural issues and also to venture an opinion that any future emoluments cases would have to be brought by both houses of Congress. Find out why Andrew disagrees and stands by his original recommendation in Episode 361 that Nancy Pelosi authorize a new vote by the full House of Representatives to re-file the case originally brought in Blumenthal v. Trump.

Then it's time for our main segment on the breaking decision out of the 11th Circuit striking down the Florida legislature's effort to gut Amendment 4 (which was meant to restore voting rights to ex-felons). Find out why the court ruled the way it did, what happens next, and why there may be cause for optimism in the Sunshine State!

After that, it's time for a fascinating, clever, but (sadly) wrong suggestion from a listener regarding a writ of mandamus and the current logjam in Congress.

We end, as always, with #T3BE, and Thomas's seven-question winning streak on the line regarding a contract and an unfortunate foreman who suffers an accident prior to starting his duties. Will Thomas prevail? Listen and find out! And don't forget to play along by sharing out the show on social media!
