Show Notes
This episode focuses on two major Supreme Court rulings with national political and cultural consequences. First, Greta speaks with Alan Dershowitz about the Court’s 5-4 decision striking down President Donald Trump’s executive order limiting birthright citizenship for children born to people in the United States illegally or temporarily. Dershowitz argues that while the president likely cannot change that policy by executive order, Congress may still have the power to pass legislation defining who is “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States under the 14th Amendment. The conversation then broadens into a larger constitutional debate over the Court’s reasoning, the limits of presidential authority, campaign finance, and the growing influence of billionaires and ideological donors in American politics.
The second major topic is the Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling upholding state laws that ban biological men from competing in women’s sports. Greta and Carl Higbie frame the decision as a significant victory for women’s athletics, Title IX protections, and common-sense distinctions based on biological sex. They discuss the cultural and legal battles surrounding transgender participation in sports, the political divide over the issue, and what the ruling could mean for states that still allow biological males to compete against female athletes. Together, the two segments make this episode a sharp, timely look at the Supreme Court’s growing role in shaping immigration policy, constitutional law, and one of the most emotionally charged debates in American sports.
