The American Judiciary Versus The Trump Administration

1A

About this episode

It's been three crazy weeks. It can be hard to keep up with the new commander-in-chief.

There are at least 45 challenges in the courts against the Trump administration. These complaints are broad in scope, dealing with the role of Elon Musk's new Department of Government Efficiency to the gutting of The United States Agency for International Development.

Judges are beginning to step in and put a damper on Trump's plans. But will the judicial branch keep the executive branch in check? We answer the question on a lot of people's minds these days: Can he do that?
