    Trump’s Insurrection Claims Could Lead American Democracy Off a Cliff

    Troops on America's streets, threats of “plenary powers”, and extrajudicial killings in the Caribbean have prompted members of the military past and present to say that we are in the biggest civil/military crisis since the Civil War. On this week's Amicus, how SCOTUS' immunity decision in Trump v. United States helped deliver us to this scary moment. Dahlia Lithwick speaks to Yale Law School military justice expert Eugene Fidell and former JAG Maj. General Steven J. Lepper about the impossible position the military's been put in by Trump and SCOTUS and how bad that is for all of us. The Crisis in Uniform: The Danger of Presidential Immunity for the U.S. Military. Want more Amicus? Join Slate Plus to unlock weekly bonus episodes with exclusive legal analysis.

    This Will Be Trump’s Best Term at the Supreme Court Yet

    Slate’s Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern are joined by Vox’s Ian Millhiser to discuss the upcoming Supreme Court term, which officially starts on Monday. The term begins with a slew of wildly significant cases that feel all but decided in the Trump administration’s favor already. That feeling of inevitability could perhaps be ascribed to the ongoing assault on democracy coming from the high court’s shadow docket, which will now spill over into cases argued on the merits. Dahlia, Mark, and Ian examine the effect of all this sloppy law on the public's perception of the court, and look ahead to upcoming cases on voting rights, campaign finance, conversion therapy, transgender rights, tariffs, and presidential power. They explore how the court's decisions reflect a shift towards a more partisan and less transparent judicial process, and ask whether there’s any hope of restoring the rule of law and healthy constitutional democracy in the future.  Want more Amicus?

    Bonus: How January 6 Got Us to the Comey Indictment

    Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern chew over the James Comey indictment in depth, asking whether this whole episode is a direct response to bogus claims about the January 6 insurrection and how much the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision is to blame. They also talk about what happens when the Supreme Court again overturns precedent on the shadow docket, and a D.C. lawsuit challenging blatant racial profiling in ICE sweeps.

    “Color-Blind” Admissions Continue to Hurt Us

    The week ended with a Grand Jury Indictment of former FBI Director James Comey for what looks to be a pair of unprovable crimes. Indeed the  US Attorney overseeing the case declined to bring the indictment for that very reason. He’s gone and Donald Trump’s personal insurance lawyer brought the case. Mark Joseph Stern and Dahlia Lithwick discuss what that means for the Justice Department. Then Yale Law School’s professor Justin Driver reminds us that Supreme Court cases don’t just turn into vapors after they come down in June. The Supreme Court’s affirmative action decision from 2023 has fundamentally changed what college campuses look like and has opened the door to Trump Administration attacks on anything that even looks like racial justice efforts on elite campuses and throughout the country. Any one decision causes legal cascades that can and will be used against us. Want more Amicus? Join Slate Plus to unlock weekly bonus episodes with exclusive legal analysis.

    Bonus: Ending the Weaponization of the Justice Department

    Happy Constitution Day to all who celebrate! Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern chose to celebrate as only Amicus Plus can, discussing Trump, the Justice Department, and the Supreme Court. As the administration pursues its policy of de-weaponizing the Justice Department by, um, weaponizing it against people the president personally disfavors, Dahlia and Mark highlight the importance of the lower court judges trying to keep the government accountable for its actions. Some lower court judges are trying to figure out when and whether Justice Department lawyers are telling the truth (eep) and some are trying to explain how the Constitution works to the Supreme Court’s conservative supermajority (ruh-roh).

    Free Speech Is The Enemy of Free Speech, Apparently

    Dahlia Lithwick talks to First Amendment law professor Mary Anne Franks to explore the inversion of free speech in America this past week, and to trace the ways our assumptions about the First Amendment helped to tip us into this upside-down. Dr. Franks, author of Fearless Speech: Breaking Free from the First Amendment, explains the contradictions inherent in free-speech absolutism, the role of government in suppressing dissent, and the impact of media and entertainment on public discourse. What are we to make of a movement that screamed “jawboning” and “censorship” for a decade, but when handed power enthusiastically enacts actual governmental speech suppression and censorship? And what does the First Amendment mean if the powerful are consistently afforded maximum power in the “marketplace of ideas”? Want more Amicus?
