The Katie Halper Show

Here's a teaser of our bonus episode, which you can access in its entirety here. https://www.patreon.com/posts/law-prof-ian-on-21703637 I continue my chat with law professor Ian Samuel, and ask him how a socialist wound up clerking for Antonin Scalia, and how he shaped some of his decisions. He also tells me how he wound up going to law school, and, more importantly, if *I* should go to law school. I encourage him to create a DSA Supreme Court Working Group because the DSA definitely doesn't have enough of those. Plus, he explains why it's ok to go on Tucker Carlson.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Bonus chat with Julia on her political evolution https://www.patreon.com/posts/21319406 I talk to Julia Salazar, a DSA candidate running against Martin Dilan, the state senator in New York's 18th District. Salazar has been compared to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortéz for being a young, Latina, DSA member and first time candidate taking on the Democratic Machine. Julia talks to me about the difference between her and Dilan and addresses his bad record on housing and tenants rights, which the media almost entirely ignored until a Gothamist piece published this week which exposed that Dilan takes more money from the real estate industry than all but one Democratic state senator. And I talk to Ted Hamm about Letitia James, who is running for Attorney General of NY against friend-of-the-show and anti corruption crusader Zephyr Teachout. Hamm talks about James' troubling support of former Brooklyn DA Charles J. HynesAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Bonus with Matt Bruenig https://www.patreon.com/posts/21259124This free bonus is a blast from the past! We revisit the election of Alabama Senator Doug Jones, given that Jones hasn't decided whether he will vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh. Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee. Gabe and I talk about how Doug Jones should go full "Bullworth," and why he can't. Then I play an interview I recorded in December on the even of Jones' election with Cara McClure, a Poor People's Campaign and Black Lives Matter organizer from Birmingham Alabama, who predicted Jones would be a disappointment. McClure is now running for office! For Public Service Commission place 1!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Bonus: #BelieveWhichWomen, Keith Ellison, Alex Jones https://www.patreon.com/posts/keith-ellison-20882230 Gabe and I talk about what we learned about the service industry from "Saved by the Bell" and what we learned about Salvadoran death squads from "21 Jump Street." Then we talk to comedian and journalist Travis Irvine who's seeking the Libertarian Party's nomination to run for Governor of Ohio about his campaign; about the pope's decision to condemn the death penalty (which is good) and the fact that he had to change the catechism on this (which is weird. given the whole Jesus story); speaking of which, we also talk about a recent crucifixion in Saudi Arabia; plus slave labor in California.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
