Are We in a Constitutional Crisis? The Supreme Court Year in Review

Season 2025 Episode 8053 | 18m 02s

The U.S. Supreme Court is hearing arguments in a case that will decide whether President Trump can fire the heads of virtually all independent agencies. The decision could result in a major transfer of power from Congress to the White House. Michel Martin sits down with Kate Shaw, a professor of law at UPenn, contributing Opinion writer for NYT and a co-host of the podcast Strict Scrutiny.
