Justice Kagan

Justice Kagan, a Supreme Court Justice known for her thought-provoking views on judicial reform, joins President Biden, who has proposed significant changes to the Supreme Court. They explore the importance of ethical standards within the court and the implications of proposed reforms. Leonard Leo, a prominent legal figure, critiques the Democratic approach to the court. The discussion touches on judicial collegiality, the evolving interpretation of Title IX, and even a lighthearted debate about the true nature of ‘boneless chicken wings.’

Timothy S. Bishop argues that California's Proposition 12 infringes on the Commerce Clause, while Edwin S. Kneedler supports this view on behalf of the U.S. government. Michael J. Mongan defends the state regulations, asserting they don't violate interstate commerce. Jeffrey A. Lamken emphasizes the ethical standpoint, advocating for animal welfare. The discussion navigates the complex interplay between state laws, morality, and commerce, as the Justices probe the potential extraterritorial effects of the law on pork production across the nation.
