Marty and Orin on the Air

JB

Over at bloggingheads.tv, you can watch our own Marty Lederman and Orin Kerr of the Volokh Conspiracy discussing, among other things, the new FISA bill.

It's so good that even Attorney General Gonzales will be listening in. (Well, actually, he always is.)

The program:

This diavlog's topics

A short FISA primer (04:05)

How overseas surveillance leads to warrantless domestic wiretapping (17:10)

Marty less sanguine than Orin re FISA revision (19:23)

Switcheroo: Orin accuses Marty of big brotherism (07:04)

A Fourth Amendment loophole for big brother? (14:36)

Habeas corpus coming to Gitmo? (14:55)

Marty's secret bombshell... and Orin's wrap-up (07:30)

Note the point where both Marty and Orin agree that Bush broke the law from 2004 to 2007.

Fascinating stuff! Marty Lederman Rocks!

Basically, if someone is doing something unsavory overseas (or making tea) and you are on the other end, you're screwed!
