What’s that? A new episode? What have these guys been doing all month…
Well, whatever they’ve been doing all September since Episode 209, Professors Vladeck and Chesney are back at last with a new episode. Tune in as they discuss and debate:
- The en banc D.C. Circuit oral argument in al Hela (asking, inter alia, whether the Due Process Clause applies at GTMO)
- A preview of the upcoming SCOTUS arguments relating to the State Secrets Privilege
- The Dorfman/Naylor/Isikoff article on CIA planning relating to Assange and Wikileaks
- A National Security Division roundup noting the sudden wind-up of the Huawei CFO case and the new material support case against a Canadian Islamic State fighter previously held by the SDF in Syria
All that, plus no small amount of frivolity (including a much-too-long endorsement of the greatness that is Joe Abercrombie).
