    WILL THE SUPREME COURT RULE US OR DOOM US?

    In this episode of No Holding Back, we take the gloves off and ask the questions everyone’s thinking but few are saying out loud. Will the Supreme Court rule us — or doom us? As Donald Trump’s legal battles collide with America’s highest court, we examine whether the justices will rule against him, shield him, or fundamentally reshape the country in the process. Has the Court become a rubber stamp in the Trump era, or is that claim overstated? We also put Chief Justice John Roberts under the microscope. Is he successfully protecting the Court’s independence, or has his leadership fallen short as public trust erodes? Joining us for this no-nonsense conversation is Erwin Chemerinsky, one of the nation’s most respected constitutional law scholars and Dean of Berkeley Law. With his expert insight, we cut through the noise to understand what’s really at stake — legally, politically, and democratically. No spin. No holding back. Just the hard truths about power, the Court, and America’s future. All this and more on No Holding Back with Susan Estrich.
