SCOTUS Seems to Normalize Authoritarianism

Strict Scrutiny

About this episode

Melissa, Leah, and Kate recap the oral arguments in the Idaho case about the legality of abortions in emergency situations, and the case about whether former President Trump is immune from prosecution in the federal election interference case arising out of January 6. It's all very bleak!
