Intro

The court, a 6-to-3 conservative majority, has increasingly filled the legislative role abdicated by a dysfunctional Congress.

This episode: White House correspondent Scott Detrow, congressional correspondent Susan Davis, legal affairs correspondent Nina Totenberg, and national political correspondent Mara Liasson.
