Today was the last day amicus briefs could’ve been filed in support of the Anderson Respondents in Trump v. Anderson. (Those in support of Trump or of neither party were due 1/18). They are all on the Trump Disqualification Tracker:

It’s a @lawfare team effort today! @rparloff will live-tweet from the media room. I’ll be observing in the in-person courtroom. And @hyeminjhan will pen an excessively detailed dispatch of what occurred!

I asked two scholars who could not disagree more, the great @samuelmoyn & @IlyaSomin to discuss the political and philosophical issues overlaying Sec. 3 Trump disqualification efforts and how this should inform SCOTUS’s decision in Trump v. Anderson:

Talked to a lot of people at SCOTUS before watching oral argument yesterday for this @Lawfare dispatch-analysis because this is a case about voters. Our deep dive on what each justice focused on and why the fate is likely sealed in favor of Trump:

While Trump was in Iowa campaigning yesterday, his lawyers were in Judge Tanya Chutkan's courtroom, debating what his First Amendment rights are as both a presidential candidate and a criminal defendant:

In a 2007 interview w/a “clean team,” suspected USS Cole bombing organizer Nashiri allegedly confessed to the crime. But a judge ruled in August that the confession can’t be used—because it is still tainted by prior CIA torture. How we got here, @lawfare:

We’re here today because one of Trump’s October motions to dismiss special counsel Jack Smith’s Jan. 6 case argued that presidents enjoy absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for acts that are performed within the “outer perimeter” of their official responsibility...

On Dec. 1, Judge Chutkan rejected the idea that presidents are endowed with absolute immunity. She said nothing in the Constitution or allocation of govt powers calls for “cloak[ing]” former pres's from the “solemn” criminal justice process. Opinion: documentcloud.org/documents/2460…
