Ep 133 — The Supreme Court is LAWLESS (feat. Leah Litman)

Law and Chaos

Today, Liz and Andrew interview Prof. Leah Litman about her book Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad Vibes. And, as if to prove the point, the Supreme Court today entertained absolutely nonsense arguments in the birthright citizenship cases about how district courts can't issue the kind of injunctions they've issued for the past two centuries because it would make Trump sad.
