Episode description

It’s been many months since Associate Justice Antonin Scalia passed away, yet still his chair on the Supreme Court bench is empty.

Stewart speaks with Nan Aron of the Alliance for Justice about this important but oft-overlooked constitutional standoff, and what it means for all of us.
