331: Blanche V. Barr

Jill Wine-Banks and Kimberly Atkins Stohr answer listener questions on everything from Fifth Amendment protections and contempt of Congress to the lasting effects of presidential pardons. They discuss whether Dr. Anthony Fauci can be held in contempt after pleading the Fifth, the limits on investigating or indicting after a preemptive pardon, the ability to pursue civil suits to recover funds from corruption or fraud after criminal charges were pardoned, the relative harm of Todd Blanche and Bill Barr, whether Democratic campaigning on Supreme Court reforms caninfluence emergency rulings on mail-in voting, and the consent requirements for appointing a new vice president.
