Presidents, Lies, & Videotape

Joyce Vance and Jill Wine-Banks answer listener questions on everything from prosecutorial liability to bodily autonomy, and more. They discuss why lying to the public is not a crime and how impeachment or elections are the remedies, why U.S. attorneys carry malpractice insurance and when they can be sued, possible Democratic House investigations into Trump family finances if Democrats regain the majority, courts’ use of pre-Constitution English common law and historical practice as evidence of meaning, the McFall organ-donation ruling and what it means for pregnancy, and why an OLC claim that executive privilege can cover private advisors would face judicial skepticism.
