Unbiased University: Everything You Need to Know About the Supreme Court of the United States

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 an in-depth look at the Supreme Court of the United States, the nation’s highest court and the final authority on questions of federal law and the Constitution. How did the Supreme Court develop into one of the most influential institutions in the country, how are justices selected, and what happens after the Court agrees to hear a case? We walk through the Court’s history, its structure and procedures, the confirmation process for justices, and the role the Court plays in shaping national policy through its decisions. If you have ever wondered how the Supreme Court operates behind the scenes and why its decisions carry such lasting impact, this episode offers a clear and accessible overview of the Court’s role in the U.S. legal system.
