Previewing SCOTUS (re)consideration of "separate sovereigns" Double Jeopardy exception in Gamble v. US

After delaying a day for honoring a deceased former Prez, on Thursday morning, the Supreme Court will hear oral argument in Gamble v. United States to “separate sovereigns” doctrine providing that different sovereigns can prosecute for the same conduct without violating the Constitution's double jeopardy prohibition. Here are links to some folks discussing this case:

The Atlantic: "There’s an Exception to the Double-Jeopardy Rule: The Supreme Court will hear a challenge to the “separate sovereigns” doctrine in Gamble v. United States."

The Economist: "The Supreme Court considers nixing a “double jeopardy” loophole"

SCOTUSblog: "Argument preview: Justices to reconsider potentially far reaching double-jeopardy exception"

The Volokh Conspiracy: "Dual Sovereign Doctrine Under Attack in the Supreme Court: Strong originalist arguments exist for overruling the dual sovereign doctrine in a case being argued before the Supreme Court today."
