CAFE Insider Sample 12/7: Stare Decisis Stench
Supreme Court abortion oral arguments, the January 6th committee, and the Oxford High School shooting are making the headlines this week. In this sample from the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet and Joyce break down oral arguments in the high-profile abortion case in which Mississippi is asking the Court to overturn Roe v. Wade. Will the Court uphold the Mississippi law that bans most abortions after 15 weeks of gestation? Is Roe dead? In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss the latest developments from the January 6th committee investigation: Mark Meadows’s decision to stop cooperating with the committee, and Jeffrey Clark’s and John Eastman’s invocations of the 5th Amendment right against self-incrimination. They also break down the manslaughter charges brought against the parents of Ethan Crumbley, the Oxford High School shooter.
