Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Judge Andrew Napolitano about what has been misreported about the Jussie Smollett sentencing, the upcoming battle that Ketanji Brown Jackson will have to endure to become a supreme court judge, the possible illegality of some of the Russian sanctions, and why we decided to exchange our individual liberties for medical tyranny.
First, Judge Napolitano gives his take on the Jussie Smollett verdict and sentencing.
He examines if the sentence he received for staging a hate crime hoax was fair.
He also explains what most people get wrong about why Smollett was released and why he may be back in jail before long for his staged attack gone wrong.
Next, Judge Napolitano discusses what to expect from the upcoming Ketanji Brown Jackson supreme court confirmation hearings and why it may be very different from Brett Kavanaugh’s experience.
He also explains why she should be wary of questions from Senators Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley.
He also explains what so many people misunderstand about the qualifications needed to be a supreme court nominee and how judges like Robert H Jackson and Earl Warren were able to get on the court without having any judicial experience.
Finally, Judge Napolitano talks about the possible illegality of sanctions on Russia and its oligarchs.
He explains the problems with abandoning due process and seizing assets of private citizens.
He also discusses how distressing it was to see Americans willingly give up their civil liberties and democratic values like freedom of assembly and freedom of association for false promises of safety during COVID.
