The New Republic’s Matt Ford on the Future of the Supreme Court

This week, our hosts chat with Matt Ford of The New Republic about the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett could affect the future of the U.S. Supreme Court.

Part of a Series

As Republicans in the U.S. Senate push ahead with their effort to replace the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, our hosts connect with staff writer for The New Republic Matt Ford to talk about President Donald Trump’s nominee, Judge Amy Coney Barrett, and how her confirmation could affect the future of the court. Plus, Daniella and Jesse debrief on the kidnapping plot against Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) and the latest from the 2020 campaign trail.
