In this clip from the latest episode of the CAFE Insider podcast, “States’ Fights,” co-hosts Preet Bharara and Anne Milgram discuss:

• The President’s executive order on immigration and the rationale for it. 
• The removal of Dr. Rick Bright from his post as director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) and his allegation that he was replaced because of his opposition to hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, “potentially dangerous drugs promoted by those with political connections.” 
• The civil lawsuit brought by Missouri against the Chinese government over COVID-19, and legislation introduced by Republicans in Congress which would allow lawsuits  against foreign governments. 
• Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s recent comments suggesting that the federal government should allow blue states to go bankrupt before bailing them out. 
• The Supreme Court’s decision in Ramos v. Louisiana, which overturned a 1972 ruling allowing non-unanimous verdicts for criminal convictions, in the process raising questions about the status of several other precedents, including Roe v. Wade.
