Episode description
We are going to hear from Ilya about what happened last term besides Dobbs and what to expect from the Supreme Court. This year’s big cases will be on affirmative action, limiting state courts influence in elections, and interstate commerce. Ilya spoke on this podcast previously about free speech.
Our second speaker is Eugene Kontorovich who is a Professor of International Law at George Mason’s Law School and works with the Kohelet Policy Forum on legal reforms related to Israel’s Supreme Court. Israel’s Supreme Court has been flexing its muscle lately and has rejected the Knesset’s laws that it feels are unreasonable including political compromises on the military draft as well as firing a cabinet minister that it viewed as unqualified because of previous legal troubles. We will hear from Eugene about Prime Minister Netanyahu’s proposed judicial reforms and the hysteria it has triggered in Israel’s legal community.
