Threats to Judges, Anthropic Sues the Government, and the Supreme Court's Emergency Docket Problem

 Chief Justice Roberts issued a rare public warning after violent threats against federal judges spiked in the wake of the administration's attacks on justices who struck down its global tariffs. Retired federal judge John E. Jones III joins to discuss why the rhetoric has reached a critical mass — and why grand juries are pushing back with unprecedented "no bill" returns. Meanwhile, 27 Ninth Circuit judges issued a historic rebuke of a colleague for vulgar language in a dissenting opinion. In a first-of-its-kind dispute, Anthropic is suing the federal government after the Defense Department branded it a "supply chain risk" — a designation normally reserved for foreign adversaries — following a disagreement over AI guardrails for surveillance and autonomous weapons. And on the Supreme Court's emergency docket: the administration has made 27 emergency requests since taking office, winning 23, while over 175 former judges signed an amicus brief urging the Court to slow down and let the legal process work. We break down what's happening, why it matters, and what it signals for the rule of law.
