VR42 - Today on Vapid Response Wednesday: Lydia, Thomas, and Matt check in on the official podcast of Stephen Miller's America First Legal, and Matt brings the receipts to show just how bad its recurring "Bad Legal Takes" feature truly is. How is an organization with this much dark money behind it so consistently terrible at producing the MAGA version of our very own Vapid Response? Plus in today's amuse douche: toad and toady are reunited when Michael Cohen's former boss stops by his podcast and Cohen finally gets to stop pretending that he ever actually disagreed with Donald Trump.

Cases and sources discussed:

Website for the America First Legal podcast The Arena

Text of Virginia HR333ER (signed into law 3/6/26)

Order on Defendant’s motion to dismiss in F.F. v. Valley View School District

History and case documents from Pablo Sequen v. Albarran from the ACLU website

Thomas & Alito dissent from SCOTUS majority’s denial of motion for leave to file a bill of complaint in Florida v. California and Washington (5/26/26)

That jingle is an AI doing an impression of Weird Al and that is an outrage

What principlel of "ours" would this law even violate? I guess they're talking about censorship, but that's not what this is. If anything, this is in line with our principle of providing a proper education to students.

For the bad bad legal takes, I'm assuming it's Matt or Thomas interrupting with a bored-sounding "bad" a la "breaking [down] the law!"

I hope Lydia feels better soonest, but her voice is really giving Phoebe with a cold in this episode.

Time broke in 2020, every year is simultaneously instantly over and its own self contained decade.

Maybe you’ll consider an episode about what’s happening in Florida. A new report by WUSF News and The Hechinger Report found significant changes to how Florida students are being taught, from language tweaks (“climate change” becomes “changes in the environment”) to factual elisions (instead of learning that an additional 1 degree Celsius will kill another 150,000 people a year, the textbooks merely say that “human health will … be affected"). Will the changes affect beliefs and attitudes about health, species extinction and sustainability?

Yes, we referenced this but good reminder too get into the details soon!

And they're bad, bad, legal takes. The worst analysis from right-wing fakes. Badder than mean James Ho, Stupider than Ken Chesebro.

I was literally going to change my name to reference you (hopefully) beginning 2L by now last week but you had JUST updated on your own. But to follow the cliche properly, you should've been Griff the Scared 1L, Griff the Tired 2L, and Griff the Bored 3L.

I am sympathetic to Thomas and Alito's idea of mandatory jurisdiction of the Supreme Court on disputes between states, though I am guessing for very different reasons from them. I strongly believe that all parties have a right to have their disputes heard before a court, and that should probably apply to states as well. Yes that may end in summary dismissal and sanctions in some cases, but even that due process is important for legitimacy and the public record. With that said... I also agree that the Supreme Court would likely be swamped by cases. Imo the Court needs to rule the exclusive jurisdiction clause in 28 U.S. Code § 1251 unconstitutional, which would hardly be the first time they did something like that. Maintaining the status quo of just denying to hear the suit always struck me as the easy (and constitutionally erosive) way out. I would also love to hear a real lawer prove me wrong on that though.
