what if we take the argument for judicial review and we substitute judicial decisions for statutes in the form of the argument, does thatean courts always have tprefer the constitution to prior decisions the way they ha to prefer it to statutes? does that meanrecedent is therefore categoricay unconstitutional? the problem is i cannot figure out why it was not. so, this was a time when i was pretty heavily invold in designing federalist society conference programs, so i put myself on a program. i structured a panel around me, and thiss true, i picked o the three people in e country who i thought would have the best chance of expining to me while i was wrong. one of them is with us this weeken might even be in the audience here. and to my amazement, all of them said yes and it was a phenomenal panel. everything i could've hoped for, except athe end of it, i still cannot figure out why it was nuts. so, three decades ler, still crazy after all these years, still crazy after all these years, how did i end up in this state? let's go back to the case for judicial review. bothouses of congrs

in that same passage where he talks about judicial review, hamilton said no weight can be given to the idea that judges will avoid applying statutes based on the pretense that they are unconstitutional. i am paraphrasing. certainly today that is the concern of judicial power, is the supreme court striking down things that are constitutional. he did not see this would happen . maybe judges were different in his day. maybe with a smaller group or for whatever reason, i agree completely with professor sheehan that they were saying the judiciary was the weakest but i think they would have been surprised at how it turned out. peter: whoever considers the different departments of power must perceive in a government where they are separate the judiciary from the nature of functions will always be the least dangerous to the political rights of the constitution because it will be leased in the capacity to injure them. john in columbus, ohio, thanks for holding. >> thank you for having me on. my question is about these authors as political operators. i understand they were trying to achieve some

many of the people in philadelphia probably they had no experience with judicial review in great britain in the 18th century, parliament was sovereign. a couple of state courts struck down state laws in the mid 1780s, but the state legislature chairs had been furious and they called. they literally called the judges to, the state legislature, to account for temerity and thinking. they had the power to strike down laws. so some of the framers thought courts strike down laws. some of them thought that shouldn't and that none of them envisioned what we have today. same about the imperial executive that the imperial presidency that arthur schlesinger junior wrote about. they would not have imagined a who could get the united states into. they wrote in the constitution and only congress can declare war. but in the last 70 years. it's usually present who decide whether the country goes to war they would not imagine a president who was the main instigator of national domestic policy. a president who could make immigration policy or environmental policy. they would be shocked by that. but there

criminal case come from, if the court comes to the conclusion, i think, already in the process of judicial review verdict is based on poor-quality evidence, then of course such a verdict should be overturned, and accordingly further... the materials are sent through the prosecutor's office for additional investigation. let us remind you once again that we listened to all participants in this high-profile criminal case. denis kumaritov recognized guilty of murdering a soldier. the court decided that it was he who pulled the trigger twice and shot the officer. the relatives of the deceased have no doubt about this. this is what i have left of my son, this is his fodder. this is a completely new uniform, he has never even worn it yet. i keep it as a memory of him, but denis kumaritov himself continues to insist on his innocence, he plans to appeal to the court of cassation, which may well send the case for a new investigation. obviously, the mysterious murder deserves attention from supervisors organs. there are too many questions in this story. andrey romanov, maria bukata, anton dubnov, lead the d

and we will look to tackle some of the uncertainty in the system that flows from judicial reviews, knowingas just been delayed for another year byjudicial review. and as we do all of this, we must continue to learn from the best thinkers outside of government, such as professor ben fly berg who is dedicated his career on how to manage megaprojects from the olympic games to the developments of cities, and cities is where as i laid out in the long term plan for housing, is where we must concentrate more of our new development. as edward glazer, the great urbanist roach, cities enable the collaboration that makes humanity shine most brightly. the agglomeration effect, the economic growth when talent is concentrated occurs most powerfully in cities. efficient use of precious land for development happens most effectively in cities. environmental protections are stronger when populations live in close proximity, in cities. that is why we are using central governments convening power and billions of public money to supercharged of element in our cities, through programmes such as the brownfield i

race without an exceedingly persuasive justification thmeasurable and concrete enough to permit judicial review. as this court has repeatedly reaffirmedial classifications are simply too icious to permit any but the most exact connection between ication and here for the reasons we have explained, that connection is missing. having failed to articulate clear and measurable goals, the universities and argue they should be alloweake race-based decisions to remedy the underrepresentati minority groups on their campuses. but none of our cases have ever permitted unives to consider race for that purpose. to the contrary, we ha explained that outright racial balancing is patently unconstitutional. byromising to terminate their use of race only when some rough percentage of various racial groups is admitted, the universities turn thei principal on its head. their admissions program effectively assure race will always be relevant and the ultimate g of eliminating race as criteria will never be achieved. finally, wenot agree that the unties may consider race to remedy the effectsf societal discrimination

thankfully it is subject to judicial review before maine judges who will follow migrant's lead and reject this. democrats are desperate. joe biden, not only trailing donald trump in georgia, arizona, wisconsin, pennsylvania, michigan, but disapproving of the job he's doing than approving, in states i hope you are sitting down, california, new york, illinois, and new jersey, so these moves in maine and colorado are desperation. it is desperation based on the writing on the wall that we are seeing regarding the democratic nominee, or likely democratic nominee. >> anita: i hear you, joe. her argument is trump participated in an insurrection on january 6th and therefore that disqualifies him under section 3 of the 14th amendment. take a look at what she said, this is call for number 2, says the weight of the evidence makes clear that mr. trump was aware of the tinder laid by his multi-month effort to delegitimize a democratic election and then chose to light a match. of course, the president was not charged with that crime, he was not convicted of that crime, not in jail of that crime. do you

will in his paper says when there is judicial review of such a decision that the courts should defer to the secretary of state if it is within the range of reasonable. i think we are actually facing the very problem you describe. note that when lyman trumbull and the congress passed enforcement legislation they had the district attorneys go to court and prove the quo warranto proceeding, which will entail all the due process you would expect and want. host: thank you. next question. >> thank you for your comments. my question is for professor baude. if president trump engaged in insurrection by omission, ken president biden be deemed to have engaged in insurrection by failing to address the southern border?

migrants will try and stay, we have also blocked their ability to try and stay by bringing a judicial reviewof those grounds. that means that this bill blocks every single reason that has ever been used to prevent flight to rwanda from taking off. the only extremely narrow exception will be that if you can't prove with credible and compelling evidence that you specifically have a real and imminent risk of serious and irreversible harm, we have to recognise that as a matter of law and if we didn't we would undermine the treaty we have just signed with rwanda. as the rwandans themselves have made clear, if we go any further, the entire scheme will collapse and there is no point having a bill with no one to simmer —— with to people do. we have set the bar so high that it will be vanishingly rare for anyone to meet it and once you have been removed, you will be banned for life from travelling to the uk, settling here are becoming a citizen. of course even with this new law here at home, we could still face challenges from the european court of human rights in strasbourg. let me repeat what i sai

>> well, i mean, the argument that this is so important, you should have less of judicial review, it idn't sit well, obviously, with the court. they didn't share the sense of urgency. more importantly, knocking out an entire level of review for a defendant is no small matter to that defendant. so i think they did stick with regular order. is this going to upset the plans of jack smith? yeah. if you crunch the numbers on this, it's not good. so you now have an oral argument set in january. even if they put this on the rocket docket and get out a decision in a week or two, trump can appeal for an en banc review. they have to file those briefs and it has to be reviewed by the judges. that's pushing you into february. then trump is allowed to go to the supreme court, and if the supreme court sticks with regular order, that can take months. so the march date is gone and all practicality, but so too may be the chances before the general election. >> tammy: this is a very serious issue, why you would want to tie it to an election. smith says he worries trump would be president. well, that is

expanding fast tracked deportations without judicial review to any undocumented person across the unitedif the person cannot prove they've lived here for two years. currently expediteed removals are for those who have arrived within 14 united states days. it would allow the administration to expel beam no ability to seek asylum. it would be triggered if the number of arrivals exceeds more than 5,000 people a day. this makes perm innocent that title 42 deportation policy without needing the public health crisis justification. negotiators are also talk about an expansion of detention for my grant. but we don't know which migrants that would apply to or if it would comply with child detention laws. now, on that fast track deportation william, it's important to know that that would impact the 11 million-plus undocumented immigrant that is live in this country that have worked for years, married here. and they would need carry on their person if this came laws. gym memberships. bills, any type of identification that could show they've lived here for two years and that expulsion authority woul

particularly because cmii has unprecedented power in terms of government agencies not facing judicial review or administrative review in terms of its ability to change medicare law and waive medicare law in order to stand up its models. i think it makes sense to try and provide some counterweight to that. >> thank you, dr. furr, do you have any comments. >> the consumer incentive program or advanced payment model is often the government gives a small care and big stick so that you have to limit upside but you have downside. you might get 2%, you might have 9% down, so i think i have talked to physicians that tried, often the work is not worth the effort. so i think you have to make the incentives worthwhile and the other problem for smaller practices, they just don't have the resources to do that. they are overwhelmed with all the other things so even to talk about adding another level of work, you know, there might be some savings. if it gets done in my practice, i have to do it. >> thank you. i yield back. seeing no other member presenting themselves for questions, i will now conclude ques
