On the CAFE Insider docket: 

– The oral arguments heard by a panel of D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals judges on former President Donald Trump’s claims of absolute immunity in the election subversion criminal case, and the Supreme Court’s recent decision declining to consider the appeal for now; and

– The efforts in multiple states seeking to disqualify Trump from running for president again by citing Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, including the Supreme Court’s decision to grant review of the ruling that barred Trump from the Colorado Republican primary ballot.

In this special episode of the CAFE Insider podcast, Joyce Vance interviews Rachel Barkow, while Preet is out. Barkow, who recently became a CAFE contributor, is a professor at NYU Law School and author of Prisoners of Politics: Breaking the Cycle of Mass Incarceration. She also served on the U.S. Sentencing Commission from 2013 to 2019.

In the interview, Barkow discusses consequential administrative law cases before the Supreme Court:

– Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, which asks the justices to overturn the long-standing Chevron doctrine that says courts should defer to federal agencies’ interpretation of ambiguous laws; 

– CFPB v. Community Financial Services Association of America, which could invalidate the funding structure of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau; and

– SEC v. Jarkesy, which asks whether SEC enforcement actions are consistent with the 7th Amendment’s right to a jury trial.

Preet will be back next week.
