Episode Description

As debates intensify over the shooting of Alex Pretti in Minnesota — including questions about the Second Amendment and whether he should have been armed at a protest — we turn to constitutional expert, Matthew Brogdon of UVU’s Center for Constitutional Studies, to break down what the Constitution actually says and the risks of rushing to judgment. Professor Brogdon also speaks to the tensions federally and locally regarding where the courts fit into the political process. We take a deep dive into Utah’s redistricting drama to the ongoing push-and-pull between legislative power, direct democracy, and judicial oversight.
