Power Grab: Supreme Court Delivers for Trump (with Sam Breidbart and Eric Petry)

As the nation approaches its 250th birthday, the Supreme Court has ended its term with a slew of rulings that further undermine our constitutional system of checks and balances and allow more money to flood our political system.

These are some of the questions Brennan Center experts discuss in-depth in this week’s episode. Take a listen and share with friends.
