OA260: Res Ipsa Loquitur

<p>Today's episode is inspired by a law student listener question about a recent Thomas Takes The Bar Exam hypothetical, and takes a deep dive into the wonderful and wacky world of <em>res ipsa loquitur</em>.   What does that even mean?  You'll have to listen and find out!</p> <p>We begin with a brief Andrew Was Wrong segment about Donald Trump and drone use, followed up by an Andrew Was <em>Right</em> segment about multiple states suing to block the implementation of Trump's HHS regulations relating to Title X that <a href= "https://openargs.com/oa258-title-x-and-trumps-war-on-women/">we discussed in Episode 258</a>.</p> <p>Then it's time for that deep dive into <em>res ipsa loquitur </em>that you didn't know you wanted until now!</p> <p>After all that, it's time for some Bonus Tuesday Yodeling, in which we check in on Roger Stone's "Motion to Clarify" that was denied by Judge Jackson <em>and</em> an update on the House Republicans' hilariously misguided efforts to try and discredit Michael Cohen by pointing out that he sure seems to like to lie on behalf of his client.  You won't want to miss it!</p> <p>Then, it's time for the answer to Thomas Takes The Bar Exam #117.  As always, remember to follow our Twitter feed (<a href="https://twitter.com/openargs">@Openargs</a>) and like our <a href="https://www.facebook.com/openargs/">Facebook Page</a> so that you too can play along with #TTTBE!</p> <p><span style= "text-decoration: underline">Appearances<br /></span>None!  If you'd like to have either of us as a guest on your show, drop us an email at <a href= "mailto:openarguments@gmail.com">openarguments@gmail.com</a>.</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style= "font-weight: 400">Show Notes & Links</span></span></p> <ol> <li><a href= "https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-ramped-up-drone-strikes-in-americas-shadow-wars"> Here's a link to the <em>Daily Beast</em> article</a> about Trump and drone strikes we teased in the opening segment.</li> <li>We've uploaded both Title X complaints:  <a href= "http:
