More on: Political prosecutions

The podcast episodes explore the topic of political prosecutions, focusing on the Supreme Court's role in establishing legal precedents to prevent a cycle of retaliatory prosecutions between opposing political administrations.

The episodes discuss the potential for former presidents to be charged with ill-defined crimes after leaving office, and the need to balance executive power with accountability. They also examine how the Biden administration's actions, such as the prosecution of a Texas doctor whistleblower, could be perceived as politically motivated.

The topic of political prosecutions is closely tied to issues of presidential immunity, constitutional law, separation of powers, and the integrity of the judicial system.
