How all this went today and what happens next. but before we do that, there's one other thing from today's case that i think is totally worth hearing. this is not one of those smackdown moments for either side, but it was the very end of the arguments, end of the two hours, and it showed the strange and, i don't know, this unstable political core that's at the heart of these legal fights, because we have fights about the law but those fights do not happen totally independent of the political world in which we live. and the combination of legal and political sometimes gets woolly. and it was ch...
