    In the next two weeks, SCOTUS will hear arguments in cases on political corruption, criminalizing houselessness, whether a state abortion ban can override a federal policy permitting abortion in emergency medical care, the statute under which most January 6th defendants were convicted-- and if that weren’t enough, Donald Trump’s request for immunity in the January 6th case against him. After previewing all these cases, Kate, Leah, and Melissa also provide updates on the total abortion ban and ballot initiative happening in Arizona, and the latest shenanigans out of the Fifth Circuit.

Sharp, incisive, brilliant

Melissa Murray, Kate Shaw, and Leah Litman deliver entertaining, accessible analysis of the court. They somehow manage to remain light and playful while delving into the densest subject matter in American government. whatever your background, this podcast is worth your time and attention.
