Well, we’re back again this week. Why? 2018, that’s why!
Seriously, lot’s to discuss:
- A deep-dive into the draft 2018 AUMF from Sens. Bob Corker (R.-Tenn.) and Tim Kaine (D.-Va.). Tune in for a very detailed review and debate.
- Meanwhile, Doe v. Mattis has suddenly moved into high gear. Looks like a transfer may be in the works, but we predict weeks of further litigation.
- The Supreme Court has figured out what to do next in Microsoft and has issued an interesting void-for-vagueness ruling.
- And President Trump has decided not to issue the new Russia sanctions that U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley recently foreshadowed.
Hopefully that is it for this week!
