Description

For $30 off your first week of HelloFresh, visit hellofresh.com and enter lawpod30! Today's special episode tackles the breaking news that Gen. Michael Flynn has pled guilty in connection with the Mueller investigation.  To break down the significance of this deal, we welcome back Prof. Randall Eliason. After that, Andrew answers a bunch of listener questions regarding the tax bill that just passed the Senate. Recent Appearances Andrew just did two episodes of the David Pakman show:  first, he was on talking about #NetNeutrality; and then, he came back for a segment on the Mueller investigation.  You can see both -- including Andrew's spiffy new webcam -- by clicking the YouTube links above! Show Notes & Links This is a copy of the Flynn plea deal; he's pled guilty to one count of violating 18 U.S.C. § 1001. Prof. Eliason's "Sidebars" blog is here, and you can read his latest Washington Post article about Flynn by clicking here. We referenced statements by Seth Abramson (scroll forward to linked reply #6); Alan Dershowitz, and a pretty awful article by Andrew McCarthy in the National Review.
