De-Briefing the Law, Daily Update, Nov 24th, 2020
Trump is finally conceding and allowing the GSA to proceed with the transfer of power. We are all a little surprised to see cooperation from him. Additionally, a wedding in New York incurs a $15,000 fine due to violating Covid mandates. Seems a bit harsh when you consider CA Gov. Newson’s recent maskless actions or Pelosi’s hair appointments, but we all know NYC is an expensive place.

Daily Update: Rudy Giuliani's Press Conference

De-Briefing the Law, Daily Update, Nov 23rd, 2020
Last week, Rudy Giuliani gave a press conference to remember. Even better than the one at Four Seasons Total Landscaping. Between the hair dye running down his face and his impersonations of My Cousin Vinny, you almost didn’t notice the completely baseless voter fraud claims. However, Tucker Carlson attempted to give Trump Lawyer, Sidney Powell, a chance to follow up on her strong, democracy-threatening claims, but she refuses to present any proof. In fact, she got angry and asked to not be contacted anymore. As if denying to prove a massive threat to the democracy was as trivial as blocking your weird Uncle Doug’s creepy messages on Facebook.

Covid lockdown controversy comes before the Supreme Court again. This time, the case deals with who is exempt from Covid restrictions, brought on by a Roman Catholic Diocese and Orthodox synagogues in Brooklyn. These religious organizations are challenging Cuomo’s order to limit gatherings to 10-25 people. Previously SCOTUS has thrown out such cases because the justices did not feel they were qualified to make this call. This time around, with a new justice and further into the Pandemic, things may be different.

After Giuliani’s guest appearance in the Borat sequel, we know he has impeccable judgment. This continues to be evident as he has taken the lead on Trump’s legal actions in PA. I mean, $20,000 a day?! For that stellar judgement?! Worth it. Additionally, Joel reviews what happened with the confidential documents of the grand jury proceedings post Mueller Report that the Judiciary Committee requested pre-Biden win. Apparently no one wants to see them anymore. Must’ve been more political than they led on.

People are thinking about moving to Georgia to help out with the Senate, thanks to Andrew Yang. Not sure that’s a foolproof strategy, but we’ll see. Additionally, we’ve seen another college admissions scandal join the ranks with Aunt Becky, this time by Tech CEO Jack Zhao. And finally, Taylor Swift finds a loophole to counter the people that won’t sell her the rights to her own music.
