Welcome to this weekend's edition of Amicus: A Law Review with Jim Santelle. Jim leads off the show with a breakdown of the U.S. Supreme Court's overnight decision blocking deportations of migrants with the use of an eighteenth century war-time act. Highlighting key developments, the show covers the Supreme Court's late-night decision and the Fourth Circuit's powerful rebuke of government actions that deny due process.

The episode also covers the current constitutional crisis, sparked by the Trump administration's refusal to adhere to court rulings. Judges Boasberg and Xinis are spotlighted for confronting the administration's defiance, with Boasberg threatening contempt proceedings and Xinis demanding accountability for wrongful deportations. The discussion underscores the erosion of checks and balances, urging listeners to consider their role in preserving the Republic.

The show concludes with taking phone callers from around Wisconsin with their questions for Jim on the legal news of the week.
