Defending Free Speech, Judicial Overreach, and Constitutional Integrity — with Alan Dershowitz

In this compelling episode of The Andrew Parker Show, constitutional law scholar and author Alan Dershowitz returns for an unflinching discussion on today’s most volatile legal and political debates — from the weaponization of the legal system to the future of free speech in America.

Professor Dershowitz and Andrew Parker explore the erosion of First Amendment protections on college campuses, the dangers of selective speech enforcement, and the hypocrisy embedded in today’s cries of "judicial activism." Dershowitz doesn’t shy away from controversial ground — including Roe v. Wade, immigration enforcement, the administrative state, and the modern-day assault on lawyers for the clients they represent.

Together, they dissect:

  • Why both sides of the political aisle embrace judicial activism when convenient
  • How Roe v. Wade may have been a strategic misstep for the pro-choice movement
  • The constitutional boundaries of executive authority in immigration and deportation
  • Historical precedents that shape today’s decisions in times of national crisis
  • The alarming rise of “lawfare” and efforts to silence dissent through bar complaints and legal threats
  • How the legal profession and elite law schools are failing the next generation of lawyers

From the founding fathers to modern-day lawfare, this conversation is a sweeping, insightful journey through the heart of American legal and political tensions. Whether you're left, right, or somewhere in between, this episode is a must-listen.

Smart Plain Talk and a dose of principle, history, and unflinching legal clarity.
