It’s (almost) the 4th of July, and that means it’s time for the first annual Independence Day Special for the Lex Rex Institute Podcast! Because we (very predictably) ended up going way over time, we’ve split this episode into two parts, with the first releasing today and the second releasing tomorrow, on the 4th itself.
In this part, we will give you a handful of reasons you should be grateful that America is now independent from Britain (things like: courts not allowing the police to use evidence against you when they obtained it illegally, knowing when the next election is for the chief executive, and not having your silence held against you when you’re interrogated) and also discuss the final ruling in Kennedy v. Bremerton School District and why the media – as well as Justice Sonia Sotomayor – seem to be confused about what the Supreme Court actually does.
Tune in tomorrow for our discussion of the Declaration of Independence and the sacrifices made by the men who signed it.
