Mike McCuskey - Teaching to Counsel

Michael McCuskey is a teacher turned public defender, turned federal judge.  As he shares in this enlightening episode of the Crisis Cast, his father preferred he remain an educator.  But "Judge Mike" went to law school, and he never stopped teaching. Now, Mike McCuskey is the Illinois Legislative Inspector General.  During this visit to our chat room, we learn the misunderstood nature of that role.  Plus, you'll hear about his Strom Thurmond encounter, his view of the Supreme Court's "Dobbs" leak, and the legitimacy of the Mar-a-Lago search warrant.  Lissa and Thom wore safety belts for this discussion.  You should, too.
