<div> <p>International law expert Rebecca Ingber of Cardozo Law joins Leah at the top of the show to talk about the US and Israel's war on Iran. Then, Leah welcomes guest co-host Chris Geidner of <a href="https://www.lawdork.com/">Law Dork</a> to run through domestic legal news, including the omission of allegations against Trump from the Epstein files, the President’s MAHA Surgeon General nominee Casey Means’s confirmation hearing, the administration’s wildly illegal halting of Medicaid funds to Minnesota, the role of independent media in Trump 2.0, and some of the stories Chris has been breaking. They also unpack last week’s oral arguments and opinions before Leah is joined by Marc Elias, chair of Elias Law Group and founder of <a href="https://www.democracydocket.com/">Democracy Docket</a>, to discuss how voting rights are under attack from all three branches of government.</p><p>Favorite Things:</p></div><ul> <li> <strong>Chris</strong>: Upcoming theatre including <a href="https://playbill.com/article/jonathan-groff-will-make-rsc-debut-in-all-male-as-you-like-it">As You Like It</a> (RSC), <a href="https://www.roundabouttheatre.org/get-tickets/2025-2026-season/rocky-horror">The Rock Horror Show</a> (Broadway), and <a href="https://www.barbican.org.uk/whats-on/event/2027/sunday-in-the-park-with-george">Sunday in the Park With George</a> (Barbican, London)</li> <li> <strong>Leah</strong>: Upcoming article for the Georgetown Law Review, <a href="https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=6302722">The Passive Vices</a>; independent media including <a href="https://www.lawdork.com/">Law Dork</a>; <a href="https://www.democracydocket.com/">Democracy Docket</a>; and <a href="https://www.stevevladeck.com/">One First</a>; <a href="https://www.stevevladeck.com/p/bonus-212-the-supreme-court-is-not">The Supreme Court is Not "Reining in" Executive Power</a>, Steve Vladeck (One First); Crooked on MS NOW premiering on Saturday at 9pm ET on MS NOW</li> </ul><div><p>Get tickets for STRICT SCRUTINY LIVE – The Bad Decisions Tour 2026! </p></div><ul> <li>3/6/26 – San Francisco</li> <li>3/7/26 – Los Angeles</li> </ul><div>Learn more:<a href="http://crooked.com/events"> http://crooked.com/events<br><br></a>Preorder Melissa’s book, <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-constitution-annotated-for-the-contemporary-reader-melissa-murray/8e7f0dfa472fc3ca?ean=9781668221938&amp;next=t&amp;">The U.S. Constitution: A Comprehensive and Annotated Guide for the Modern Reader<br><br></a>Buy Leah's book,<a href="https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Lawless/Leah-Litman/9781668054628"> Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad Vibes<br><br></a>Follow us on<a href="https://www.instagram.com/strictscrutinypodcast/?hl=en"> Instagram</a>,<a href="https://www.threads.net/@strictscrutinypodcast"> Threads</a>, and<a href="https://bsky.app/profile/strictscrutiny.bsky.social"> Bluesky</a> </div>
