Monday Morning Legal Analysis
If you believe in the 1st Amendment, you understand how critical independent journalism has become. Scott MacFarlane has been one of my favorite journalists ever since I met him when he was at NBC4 in Washington, D.C. I followed him when he went over to CBS in 2021. Recently, he resigned without fanfare and announced he was going independent. He’s writing one of the hottest new Substacks, , and if you’re not reading him, you’re missing out!
When Scott asked me to join him for a Substack Live this morning to give some analysis to go along with the news, we didn’t fully anticipate what a crazy morning it would be! We started with Trump’s overnight social media frenzy, discussed Eric Swalwell’s situation (and had a great discussion of due process rights in criminal proceedings, and the difference in political ones), Pam Bondi’s failure to testify this week despite getting a subpoena, and more. I really appreciated the chance to start my week with a very engaged audience and with Scott, who asks all of the right questions to dig into a situation and enhance our understanding of it.

We’re in this together,
