About this episode
Leah and Kate discuss four big Supreme Court cases that came down last week (June Medical with special guest Julie Rikelman , Seila Law, Espinoza, and Alliance for an Open Society). Somehow, in three of those cases, Chief Justice Roberts defied his liberal instincts and voted to join 5-4 opinions with his fellow conservatives. They also discuss some recent news and rumors involving the Court and give Justice Alito a new nickname.
