Ep 153 — The Shadow Docket Gets Shadier
Podcast: Law and ChaosPublished On: Fri Jul 25 2025
Description: The Supreme Court can’t be bothered to do real law — but they still expect trial judges to read their minds and treat those nebulous shadow docket orders like binding precedent. And that invisible ink precedent says that Trump can fire anyone, anywhere, at any time. Abrego Garcia is still dancing on the knife edge between Trump’s DOJ and his DHS. And we explain why the current state of our media is all Hulk Hogan’s fault. Links: SCOTUS Shadow Docket Order Trump v.
