VA vs Brendan Banfield is heating up as we enter a week where Banfield may testify and the defense will likely rest its case. This will shift the trial back to the prosecution for a rebuttal. Today, we will discuss whether or not Banfield will or should testify, and we'll talk more about the what the digital forensics are or are not telling us. Is there reasonable doubt? Or has the prosecution proven their case already?

We then shift our conversation to ICE in Minnesota. After recent highly publicized events in Minnesota, is Governor Walz promoting peace or pushing a false narrative to get people angry? We talk about ICE operations from a legal and moral perspective, and we discuss what one thing that isn't being done would give everyone peace of mind regarding the recent ICE-involved incidents.

Charlie Kirk's assassination set off a firestorm of opinions: some felt he deserved to die because of his beliefs, while others believed he was murdered by a left-wing radical who was afraid of Kirk's growing popularity among young men. In this episode of No Contest, we talk about the overarching concept of free speech. We talk about what it really means legally and socially, and we debate whether Kirk was spreading hate or debating with others to allow conflicting viewpoints to be heard and discussed. We also talk about the possibility of conspiracy charges for people who may have encouraged or helped Tyler Robinson along the way.

Don't be fooled: Our panel often disagrees and argues passionately, and this episode is no different.
