  • Justice Stephen Breyer on Trump, the Rule of Law, and Whether the Supreme Court is Political

    Justice Stephen Breyer on Trump, the Rule of Law, and Whether the Supreme Court is Political
    Jul 1 2026
    Former Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer sits down with Bloomberg Law's Matthew S. Schwartz to discuss the Court, executive power, Dobbs, judicial independence, and the rule of law. Reflecting on nearly three decades on the bench — and the perennial question of whether politics shapes when justices choose to retire — he explains how justices make decisions, and why preserving public trust in the Supreme Court and the Constitution is essential, even as polls show trust in the judiciary near a 50-year low.

  • Supreme Court Term to Have Lasting Impact With Few Blockbusters

    Supreme Court Term to Have Lasting Impact With Few Blockbusters
    Jul 11 2025
    The Supreme Court term was limited in its blockbusters this year, but the decision to limit the power of lower court judges to issue nationwide injunctions will have the biggest impact, attorneys and legal scholars say. “It affects how cases get litigated in a big way,” said Anastasia Boden, a senior attorney at the Pacific Legal Foundation, a libertarian public interest law firm. "I saw someone say 'We're all class action attorneys now, right?' because that's all we've got." Boden joins “Cases and Controversies,” along with Georgia State University College of Law professor Eric Segall to discuss the recent term, its rulings, and the justices that stood out the most. Hosts Kimberly Robinson and Lydia Wheeler also talk about the court’s recent emergency order that allows President Donald Trump to move forward with plans to reduce the size of the federal workforce.

  • Justices End Term with Split Decisions and Powerful Dissents

    Justices End Term with Split Decisions and Powerful Dissents
    Jun 30 2025
    The Supreme Court closed out its term with a string of rulings that divided the justices. The court split 6-3 along ideological lines in opinions June 27 that limited the ability of lower courts to issue nationwide injunctions and gave parents the right to opt their children out of classroom instruction that violates their religious beliefs. Cases and Controversies hosts Kimberly Robinson and Lydia Wheeler dig into the term end blockbusters and discuss the powerful dissents that accompanied them. In one, Justice Sonia Sotomayor fired back at a majority ruling from Samuel Alito by reprinting a children's book in what it appeared to be its entirety.
