    Bonus: A Good News-Bad News Sandwich

    We’re trying this week to celebrate the wins we can win. Sandwich Guy is free! Justice prevails! D.C. residents used their voices to reject the Trump administration’s efforts to make an example of a man who made a CBP officer smell briefly like mustard and onions. Yet we must inevitably remind ourselves of the dangers afoot. Dahlia and Mark talk about SCOTUS’ latest shadow docket ruling allowing the Trump administration to continue its heinous attacks on transgender people—without regard for the facts, the law, or the devastating consequences on the ground.

    When Tariffs Crashed Into SCOTUS

    The Republican-appointed Supreme Court justices have been treating the Trump administration with such extreme deference that we were honestly a little flummoxed listening to this week’s arguments over his “Liberation Day” tariffs. Shockingly, during Wednesday’s arguments in Learning Resources v. Trump and Trump v. V.O.S. Selections, it seemed like the justices were in fact, concerned with presidential overreach. But was this a true bridge-too-far-moment, or were they more concerned about their own pocketbooks? This week, Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern discussed the arguments with Marc Busch, the Karl F. Landegger Professor of International Business Diplomacy at the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University. Busch is an expert on international trade policy and law, and signed onto an amicus brief on behalf of trade scholars explaining the history and context of IEEPA.  Want more Amicus?

    The Federal Judiciary Is Trapped

    “The Chief Justice… is presiding over the end of the rule of law in America”. That quote did not come from host Dahlia Lithwick, but this week’s guest, former Federal Circuit Court Judge and George H. W. Bush appointee, J Michael Luttig. On this week’s show, Judge Luttig explains the unprecedented split we’re seeing between the federal courts and the highest court in the land in response to Trump’s lawlessness on everything from tariffs, to due process, to deploying the National Guard, and what it all means for the future of American democracy.  Next, Dahlia talks to the CEO of the small family business at the center of the tariffs case that will be argued at SCOTUS on Wednesday. Rick Woldenberg of Learning Resources explains why he’s standing up to Trump’s monarchic power grab, and why he sees himself standing shoulder-to-shoulder with James Madison. Want more Amicus?

    BONUS: The DoJ Lied in Court (Again)

    Bonus: Is This Trump’s Most Outrageous Legal Demand Yet?

    In this week’s Amicus Plus Bonus Episode, crafted lovingly for our esteemed Pluskateers, join Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern in the smokeless cigar bar. Sorry about the mess. And the mess of course is Trump’s YUGE $250 million (give or take) demand for compensation from his very own Justice Department for, among other things, “malicious prosecution” (lolsob). The mess is also the many cases working their way through various levels of appellate courts over the Trump regime’s deployment of troops on the streets of American cities. If you’re baffled by the array of hearings (en banc or non bonk), Dahlia and Mark are here to demystify the process and explain the key themes. Namely, that a growing number of federal judges are viewing this as a break-the-glass moment. This episode is member-exclusive. Listen to it now by subscribing to Slate Plus.

    Demolition Man

    Bulldozers and bulwarks are the twin themes of this week’s show, as Dahlia Lithwick is joined by Joyce White Vance, a longtime federal prosecutor and clarion voice in defense of the rule of law, despite its flaws. As Pam Bondi’s Justice department chases down the President’s opponents, Congress walks away from its constitutional duties, and the highest court in the land struggles to find a presidential demand too outrageous to rubber stamp, it’s no wonder many Americans are exhausted by the attempt  to toggle between hope and despair. Lithwick and Vance discuss the many challenges to the integrity of the justice system and ponder what ordinary people can do to bolster vital democratic institutions under siege. Vance's new book, 'Giving Up is Unforgivable,' serves as a manual for citizens who understand that surviving this moment (and thriving after it) is a massive team project. It’s okay to huff a little hopium sometimes, but only if it’s the good stuff.  Want more Amicus? Join Slate Plus to unlock weekly bonus episodes with exclusive legal analysis.

    Bonus: Trump Has Crossed Another Rubicon

    On this bonus episode for our treasured Pluskateers, Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern discuss the growing movement of judges from across the ideological spectrum, who seem ever more willing to assert their authority, and challenge the executive branch, reflecting a significant moment in the ongoing struggle for checks and balances in American governance. They are incidentally also proving the US Supreme Court SCOTUS to be ever more an outlier when it comes to deference to a lawless regime. Dahlia and Mark also dig into the worrying implications of President Trump's cash grab by which he plans to fund the military despite the government shutdown. No debate: It may be good for the troops, but it’s very dangerous for the future of the republic! This episode is member-exclusive. Listen to it now by subscribing to Slate Plus.

    Voting Rights, But Mainly for White People

    Janai Nelson, president of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund argued in defense of the Voting Rights Act in the pivotal Supreme Court case,  Louisiana v Callais this week. Nelson joins Dahlia Lithwick on this episode of Amicus to probe the implications of the case for voting rights around the country, and the role of the Supreme Court in a democratic system. Nelson warns that while the consequences of losing Section 2 would be catastrophic, t many Americans are unaware how much of their democracy is undergirded by the rights accorded in the 14th and 15th amendments, and effectuated by the Voting Rights Act. Their conversation delves into the historical context of voting rights, the importance of precedent, and the unfinished, but essential, struggle for racial justice in America. Want more Amicus?
