Summary: Immigration, Benghazi, and the Supreme Court, Oh my! On this episode of Talking Left, we tried to catch up on all the news we missed last week, and tell you about a few of the stories we've been following this week too. First, we had a discussion about nullification, armed protests, and other attempts to attack our Union. At what point do these efforts become treason? We considered the legal definition, and the history, but we'll leave it up to you to form your own opinion. Next, Cliff Schecter, of Libertas LLC, gave us his take on the so-called Benghazi conspiracy, and what it means for our political process. We can't wait to read Cliff's next column on Al Jazeera English! Be sure to follow Cliff on Twitter, because you never know what show he may appear on next! After that, we spoke with Nicole Flatow, the deputy editor of Think Progress Justice. She helped up understand a recent study, which found that this Supreme Court is the most "business friendly" court in 65 years. Her analysis shows how important it is that we pay attention to court nominations, and why we must push our senators to put in judges that will actually fight for the people. Last, but certainly not least, Juan Escalante, of DreamActivist.org, gave us his thoughts on this week's immigration hearing. In considering just a few of the 300+ amendments that have been submitted, it is clear that some in Congress really want to gum up the works of this bill. Be sure to follow all of the amazing work Dream Activist is doing, and get help understanding the amendments being submitted to this legislation, by following the group on Twitter.
