258: Fire The Cannon with Pam Karlan

<div>Following the attempted assassination of Trump, Al and James discuss its effect on the race, the nomination of JD Vance, the Republican convention, and whether Biden’s recent press and hail-mary plans can shake things up. Then, they welcome legal scholar Pam Karlan to analyze Judge Cannon’s dismissal of Trump’s charges for mishandling classified docs, defend the need for special counsel appointments, and explore the avenues the Justice Department has to reopen the case.  They also break down the Supreme Court’s assault on the rule of law and call for a return of coherent legal reasoning and impartiality before it’s too late.<br /><br />Email your questions to James and Al at <a href="mailto:POLITICSWARROOM@GMAIL.COM">politicswarroom@gmail.com</a> or tweet them to<a href="http://www.twitter.com/@politicon"> @politicon</a>.  Make sure to include your city– we love to hear where you’re from!<br /><br /><strong>Watch James Carville Explains on YouTube </strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8CmBcr1ock&amp;list=PLIMaYVqnSs69pLbnSb_2FkHVAoIPznxsC"><strong>Playlist</strong></a><br /><br /><strong>James Carville &amp; Al Hunt have launched the </strong><a href="http://www.politicswarroom.com/"><strong>Politics War Room Substack</strong></a><br /><br /><strong>Get More From Professor Pam Karlan:</strong><br /><a href="https://law.stanford.edu/directory/pamela-s-karlan/">Stanford Law</a> | <a href="https://www.justice.gov/archives/crt/staff-profile/former-principal-deputy-assistant-attorney-general-pamela-s-karlan">DOJ.gov</a> | <a href="https://law.stanford.edu/supreme-court-litigation-clinic/">Supreme Court Litigation Clinic</a><br /><br /><strong>Please Support Our Sponsors:</strong><br /><br /><strong>3 Day Blinds:</strong><br />For their buy 1 get 1 50% off deal, head to <a href="https://www.3dayblinds.com/landing-page-002?adkey=MC39830&amp;utm_source=incrementalmedia&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_term=none&amp;utm_content=bogo50&amp;utm_campaign=3db_podcast_im_politicswarroomjamescarvillealhunt_202404_bogo50">3DayBlinds.com/warroom</a><br /><br /><strong>Washington Post:</strong><br />To access The Washington Post for just 50 cents per week, head to <a href="http://washingtonpost.com/warroom">washingtonpost.com/warroom</a><br /><br /><br /></div>
