Unbiased University: Everything You Need to Know About the Judicial Branch of the United States Government

UNBIASED University is in session! While Jordan is on maternity leave, she’s breaking down the most critical aspects of the United States government — the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the three branches of the federal government, presidential elections, the evolution of political parties, and more. In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we take a closer look at the Judicial Branch of the United States government, the branch responsible for interpreting the law and resolving legal disputes. How is the federal court system structured, what powers do federal judges actually have, and how do cases make their way through the courts? We explain the roles of district courts, appellate courts, and the Supreme Court, the concept of judicial review, and the ways the judiciary serves as a check on both Congress and the president. Whether you are seeking a clear refresher on how the federal courts operate or want to better understand how constitutional decisions are made, this episode offers a straightforward, nonpartisan guide to the judicial branch and its role in the American system of government.
