Ep. 240: How The Judicial System Is Failing Law Clerks

An increasing number of law clerks are speaking out about how they were harassed by judges they worked for. This week, we’re joined by Aliza Shatzman, a former D.C. Superior Court clerk who shares her story and explains what Congress can do to eliminate institutional barriers that hinder clerks from receiving help when they are in a similar situation. Also this week, we discuss Sarah Bloom Raskin who pulled out of the running for the top bank regulatory job at the Federal Reserve; Alec Baldwin explaining why he isn’t responsible for the fatal shooting on the set of the movie “Rust”; and celebrity name dropping gone wrong in a deal to buy part of a cannabis company.
