    A Right-Wing Conspiracy Overturned Roe, Then Came Back for More.

    After Roe was overturned, anti-abortion activists funded by right-wing billionaires got right to work - constructing and funding a lawsuit that would go after Mifepristone, a pill that is used in nearly two-thirds of abortions in the United States. The Supreme Court of the United States is now on the cusp of a decision that could decide the future of the medication. The case is FDA v. the Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine. In the first episode of this limited series, hosted by Lisa Graves, Gr...

    Should Violent Domestic Abusers Be Allowed to Possess Guns?

    The US Supreme Court will soon be deciding if violent domestic abusers can legally own and possess guns. Unfortunately, you read that right… The defendant in the case United States v. Rahimi is clearly a violent individual. In 2020, a judge issued a restraining order against him on behalf of his ex-girlfriend after he threw her onto the pavement of a parking lot, dragged her into his car, and then shot at a bystander he noticed nearby. The restraining order barred him from possessing fi...

    The Rollback and Ongoing Threats to Voting Rights

    Back in October of 2023, The US Supreme Court heard a case involving an electoral map that has been proven in a court of law to be racist. That was in Alexander v. South Carolina State Conference of the NAACP. Since the nation's highest court failed to deliver an expedited ruling in, South Carolinians are going into the 2024 election with this racially gerrymandered map. The consequences of a ruling in this case could not only change the course of the 2024 election, but it could under...

    Small Fish Case Masks Billionaire Backer’s White Whale

    Earlier this year, the Supreme Court heard a case that, on its face, is about fishermen who disagree with a government fee. But behind it is a group of billionaires led by one of the richest men in America. This episode will explain how they propped up this case and why, if the Supreme Court takes their bait, it could destroy a foundational legal doctrine that helps government agencies keep giant corporations in check. The stakes in this seemingly small fish case could not be bigger. I...

    Presidential “Immunity” and Creeping Authoritarianism

    Trump v. The United States is about presidential immunity — the idea that a president is immune from prosecution for their actions as president even after they leave office. The Supreme Court of the United States is weighing whether or not the president can get away with say…inciting a violent insurrection or conspiring to overturn his own presidential election. Listen to understand why even hearing this case is a gift to the criminally convicted, twice impeached former president, Donal...

    A Supreme Court Term "For the Ages" (w/ Dahlia Lithwick, Michael Podhorzer, and Alex Aronson)

    In this final (bonus) episode of Grave Injustice, Lisa Graves is joined by three top legal experts to discuss the latest term of the U.S. Supreme Court which saw the court's six right-wing appointees shelter Trump for his crimes and bestow new, almost king-like powers on the executive, uphold flagrant racial gerrymandering, and upend a long-standing legal doctrine that has major implications for the federal government's authority in keeping our air and water clean, our food and drugs safe, ou...
