Ep 113 — Hey, DOJ, Some Idiot Is Signing Your Name On Pleadings

Today's episode is another roundup of how trial judges are playing whack-a-mole with the Trump administration, and how all of it fits in with Trump's plan to usurp Congress's power to reshape the country in his image. Plus, we've got some crazy stories featuring the Interim US Attorney for DC trying to strongarm Georgetown University, a blast from the past with bigoted Kentucky court clerk Kim Davis, and a subscriber bonus on an obscure Civ Pro rule that Trump plans to use to make terrible losing arguments in court.
