Rahimi Is Here and It Is Glorious

Our present policy choices are not bound by the colonial imagination.

The Supreme Court has decided 8-1 in favor of the government in United States v. Rahimi. Sarah and David break down the decision before getting to a few sleeper cases from the day.

The Agenda:
—“Y’all misunderstood Bruen
—History is instructive, not binding
—18th-century policy vs. 21st-century problems
—The future of gun control
—“Bad man stays in jail” doctrine
—Trump’s SCOTUS nominees in a second term
“SCOTUS should have never taken Rahimi
—Sleeper cases
