The Gist

Rights You Can’t Use


Listen Later

Aziz Huq, University of Chicago law professor and author of The Collapse of Constitutional Remedies, lays out how federal courts have gutted the mechanisms for enforcing constitutional rights—blocking individuals harmed by police while greenlighting speculative corporate attacks on regulation. Also, Donald Trump crowns himself de facto CEO of the U.S. chip industry and gatekeeper of U.S. Steel’s future. And Matt Taibbi’s “year-to-date” murder stat takedown of D.C. backfires once he actually checks the date.
