Bea speaks with Melissa Gira Grant about the reporting she broke about the Supreme Court case 303 Creative v. Elenis: that the supposed request for a gay marriage website at the center of the case was never actually made. What follows is a bigger story about the legitimacy of the Supreme Court, and the influence of right wing activist groups like the Alliance for Defending Freedom (ADF).
