54:25Now PlayingIn this episode, Legal AF’s Ray Brescia speaks to University of Chicago Law School Professor Aziz Huq, Frank and Bernice J. Greenberg Professor of Law at the University of Chicago School of Law, whose recent and accessible book The Rule of Law: A Very Short Introduction could not be more timely. Brescia and Huq talk about the origins of the notion of the rule of law and the threats to democracy and the rule of law the nation faces today. Their conversation situates the current challenges the U.S. faces to the continued viability of democracy and the rule of law and what the Framers thought about when they were constructing our legal and political systems to reflect one vision of the rule of law. They also discuss Huq’s recent article in Lawfare describing the Department of Justice’s so-called weaponization fund, which Aziz describes as morally indefensible.
