OA761: Judge Cannon Prepares to Do Trump a Solid, As Republicans Aim to Kneecap Biden

Broadcast on:
16 Jun 2023

It's a grab bag of stories, mostly Trump-adjacent. After some great news on judges, Liz explains that the House GOP is so desperate to smear President Biden they've made like Rudy Giuliani and leaked. Stick around for the end, when the duo breaks down exactly what can (and can't!) be done about Judge Aileen Cannon, FSW.

In the Patreon bonus, Liz and Andrew discuss a recent Judge Cannon order in some detail.
