Episode 20: Torture, Trump, and Tech – A Conversation with Alan Dershowitz

May 26, 2021

Alan Dershowitz joins Akhil and Andy for a discussion of a life spent in the law and the spotlight; President Trump; Israel and its Supreme Court; speech on campus; his new book, and much more.

For more than 50 years, any discussion of criminal defense attorneys, legal academics, and civil libertarians – as well as staunch advocates for Israel –  included Professor Alan Dershowitz.  Today he joins “Amarica’s Constitution” for a far-ranging conversation.  Torture warrants, Trump’s misdeeds, the life of a principled advocate and his family, censorship in social media, campus speech, the Israeli Supreme Court – all fall under his gaze, and our scrutiny.  We also discuss Prof. Dershowitz’s new book, “The Case Against The New Censorship.”
