Fast Politics with Molly Jong-Fast

CHAPTER

The State of the Supreme Court and the Crisis of Legitimacy

This chapter features a conversation discussing the current state of the Supreme Court and how it has become dominated by a conservative majority. It explores the role of well-funded groups like the Federalist Society in shaping the Court's composition and decisions, as well as the public's growing anger and loss of trust in the Court's legitimacy. The chapter also explores historical examples of politicized courts and raises concerns about the potential political backlash and impact on the country.
