Primary when iowa caucus winner Pete Buttigieg endorsed Court Packing. Now it is back in the news again in the general elections following the passing of justice ginsburg. I am not writing this book because Court Packing is back in the news. I have always been interested in the new deal. It is a constitutionally significant error in our industry. It never received quite as much attention as it deserved on that front.

And by the way, you didnt have to do that just to be invited here today. [laughter] ladies and gentlemen, i want to thank you for joining us. Were honored to welcome you virtua
