Focus on SCOTUS
Today, the US Supreme Court offered a boost to the Biden administration by backing a federal gun ban for domestic abusers. But all eyes are on some key decisions which are yet to be released. These include whether former President Trump is protected from prosecution for actions taken while he was president, whether the prosecution of January 6th rioters via an obstruction statute is lawful, and if a restrictive Idaho abortion ban, which is preventing some patients from getting treatment, can continue. Jessica Roth, Professor of Law at the Cardozo Law School, and Steven Mazie, the Supreme Court Correspondent for The Economist, joined the show to discuss today’s rulings, as well as what lies ahead.

In an interview, IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari acknowledged what many observers have been arguing for months, saying, “Hamas is an idea. Those who think we can make Hamas disappear are wrong.” Israeli Doctor Yuval Bitton agrees; he probably knows the senior level of Hamas better than anyone.
