Former Vice President Mike Pence has received subpoenas from Special Counsel Jack Smith. Pence claims that he has grounds to challenge this subpoena; he locates this in the so-called “speech and debate” clause, and some claim that executive privilege is relevant as well. We examine these clauses and doctrines deeply and offer our own conclusions on this issue. Speaking of doctrines, the Supreme Court has brought the “major questions” doctrine out once again in the student debt case, and we look at that. We also take a deeper dive on questions of standing - how do states have the ability to appear in court challenging this presidential action? It may not surprise you to hear that Akhil wrote a relevant article, over 30 years ago.
NPR's Book of the Day - ‘All the Beauty in the World’ is a museum guard’s view on healing through art
Patrick Bringley worked in events planning at The New Yorker – until his older brother got diagnosed with cancer and passed away. That loss led to a reimagining of priorities for Bringley, who decided to seek solace in one of the most beautiful places he could think of: The Metropolitan Museum of Art. His new memoir, All the Beauty in the World, retraces his journey to becoming a museum guard and finding refuge in the works of art he saw each day. And as he tells NPR's Scott Simon, he also encountered a lot of joy in watching the people who visited.

Horn elaborates on how Eucken and Röpke shaped ordoliberal thought and explains how the concept of the "good life" influenced their thinking.

CoinDesk Podcast Network - BREAKDOWN: Fireworks in the Grayscale Bitcoin ETF Lawsuit as Judge Visibly Rattles SEC Attorney
Apparently the judges agreed with Grayscale that the SEC's policies regarding bitcoin ETFs are inconsistent.
Last year, Grayscale, a CoinDesk sister company, filed suit against the Securities and Exchange Commission after its proposal to convert the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust into a bitcoin spot exchange-traded fund was rejected. Today the hearing began, and the SEC was almost immediately put on the defensive. In this episode, NLW explains the background of the SEC and bitcoin ETFs, the specifics of the Grayscale case and how the community is reacting to today's hearing.

Lost Debate - Ep 119 | Insulin Prices, College Cancellation Fear, Stock Buybacks
Ravi, Rikki, and Joe start with a major announcement from drugmaker Eli Lilly on coming price caps for its insulin products before turning to the complex web of regulatory loopholes that defines American pharmaceuticals and health care altogether. Then we turn to a new survey from FIRE, detailing self-censoring among college professors and students when it comes to academic freedom and speech. Finally, we look at a trendy punching bag among progressives, asking whether stock buybacks are really the corporate cash grab they think.
