When the Court Says No

from The Briefing Room · host Marcus S. Atkinson

On this episode of The Briefing Room, we take a hard look at how Trump’s recent court losses are exposing the limits of the political aura that once made him seem untouchable. As judges push back on his efforts to rename public institutions, shield controversial legal arrangements, and stretch executive power, we ask a deeper question: what happens when the mystique runs into the law? This follow-up episode traces how courts are becoming one of the few places where branding, bluster, and force-of-will are no longer enough.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-briefing-room--5656912/support.
