LAL — Focused Look on Durham Report, NC Gov's 'State of Emergency', U of Minnesota (May 23, 2023)

The Denver Nuggets did it; Jamal Murray and WCF MVP Nikola Jokic swept Lebron James and the Los Angeles Lakers to earn the Nuggets first ever trip to the NBA Finals. Unless the Celtics decide they've got more fight to give, the Nuggets will meet the Miami Heat for what will be a basketball fan's pure enjoyment. . Mike joked last week that Law and Legitimacy is now a comedy podcast, but goings-on of our public institutions at the federal and state levels just seems like a page from the Babylon Bee. We hope the Bee can survive the convergence of truth with fiction through which we are all living. . Today: › North Carolina's Governor, Roy Cooper, appeared in front of a green screen yesterday to declare a State of Emergency. The only problem? The alleged emergency is over public school funding via the legitimate legislative process. Oh, and Governor Cooper's 'State of Emergency' is not an actual executive order—just political rhetoric. › Norm goes deeper on the Durham Report › The Daily Wire reports that the University of Minnesota is facing down a civil rights complaint for a research program the University sponsored that was open only to students of color. .
