The Jury of a court is so important, not just who makes it up but also understanding their power over cases. Joining Jason to talk about this is Tom Gallagher. Tom is a criminal defense lawyer in Minneapolis, where he's been defending people for 34 years so far. He is politically active, including volunteer work on issues like marijuana legalization, individual gun rights, and liberty issues generally. He frequently speaks publicly, and writes for his blog at https://gallagherdefense.com/blog/ . One of his interests is jury power and jury nullification, our main topic today.

Often times we hear changes that politicians and political leaders say, but often what's left out is the actual substance of what the current structure looks like and why what we advocate for puts our society in a better place. Join Jason as he sits with Spike Cohen, founder and chair of You Are The Power, co-owner of Muddied Waters Media, nationally syndicated activist, and oh yeah the 2020 Vice Presidential candidate for the Libertarian Party, as they discuss the cash bail system within our criminal justice system.

In November, South Carolina has an amazing activist and leader on the ballot. Her name is Jessica Ethridge and she is running for Lt. Governor.

President Joe Biden, while being equipped with the American Rescue Plan Act, has announced that American families can rest at ease knowing thousands of their student loans are being forgiven. President Joe Biden did not, however, comment on the logical conclusions of what's to come. Welcome to another episode in which a libertarian tells you what's to come so we can wait for it to happen and watch the media tell us "no one could see this coming!"
