We have a totally
sweet Red Meat Friday theme episode of The
Independents waiting for you on your television boxes at 9
p.m. ET, 6 p.m. PT (with repeats three and five hours later) on the
Fox Business Network. It’s all about the Supreme Court, and who
better to give us a tour of its secret quasi-libertarian history
and futureshock than beloved Reason superhuman Damon
Root, author of the splendiferous
Overruled: The Long War for Control of the U.S. Supreme
Court. Damon shall provide a précis of his penumbras, as a
way of re-jiggering the dull-witted modern understandings of the
truly meaningful divides on the High Court.
You
think your body’s had
enough of libertarian SCOTUS-analysis? THINK AGAIN,
MORTAL. Beloved Senior Editor Peter
Suderman, who will bring a
very fine price where we’re headed, breaks down
Obamacare’s upcoming judicial vulnerabilities, and participates in
a super-competitive Supreme Court trivia contest. Timothy Sandefur,
principal attorney of the Pacific Legal Foundation, talks about the
fascinating Facebook/violence/free-speech case
Elonis v. United States. And I dunno, maybe you’ve
heard of Fox News
Senior Judicial Analyst and Reason.com
columnist Andrew Napolitano, author of the brand
new
Suicide Pact: The Radical Expansion of Presidential Powers and
the Lethal Threat to American Liberty? Well, our
favorite WHAT-PART-OF-THE-CONSTITUTIONist will be on to assess who
is the most libertarian member of the Supreme Court.
Do you even deserve such a good show on cable
television? Well, yes, because you have been donating early and
often to Reason’s
annual Webathon, in which we are seeking an audacious
$200,000 in tax-deductible contributions by the end of December 9.
(Please
donate right the hell now, etc.) Part of our essential
value proposition is that we serve as your tribune, injecting
libertarian arguments into all sorts of venues where they had been
previously scarce. Watch tonight’s show, and tell me how that’s
going.
