On this latest episode of Full Circle Podcast, Joseph returns with a double-header: a deep dive into a chilling case of deportation defying due process and some hot takes on the NBA Playoffs.

First, Joseph unpacks the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident wrongfully deported under the Trump administration using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798—a law from an era when America only had 13 colonies. With the Supreme Court unanimously ruling that Kilmar’s removal was unlawful, Joseph breaks down the constitutional cracks this situation exposes, from the erosion of habeas corpus to the broader threat to judicial authority. This isn’t just about immigration—it’s about what happens when the rule of law becomes optional.

Then we pivot from the courts to the court, where Joseph gives his take on the 2025 NBA Playoff Western Conference picture. From the Warriors’ nail-biter against the Grizzlies, to potential breakout performances from Anthony Edwards, to a gritty Nuggets-Clippers showdown—he’s calling matchups, player dynamics, and wild card factors that could shake up the postseason.
