Trump & Justice Roberts SECRET POWER Struggle REVEALED

New York Times Chief Legal Correspondent Adam Liptak joins Mike Sacks from Court Accountability Action to discuss the ongoing "battle royale" between federal district court judges and the Supreme Court over President Trump's executive actions. Liptak, the Times's former Supreme Court correspondent, also talked about the Court's recent decision invalidating Trump's tariffs and what that says about Chief Justice Roberts's own agenda, and weighed in on the ongoing speculation over whether Justice Alito will retire this summer and who his potential successors may be.
