What Happens if a President Goes Rogue by Professor Claire Finkelstein

Speaker: Professor Claire Finkelstein



Prof. Claire Finkelstein at the Center for Ethics and the Rule of Law was our guest today (Feb. 9). In October 2024, the Center for Ethics and the Rule of Law (CERL) conducted a tabletop exercise in which a U.S. President launched an unpopular law enforcement operation in Philadelphia, escalating into an armed confrontation between state and federal forces. As ICE agents unleash violence and fear on the streets of Minneapolis, much of CERL’ s simulation is playing out in real life. Finkelstein, a law and philosophy professor at the University of Pennsylvania and CERL’ s director, explains the implications of this terrifying scenario.
