It has been a very busy few weeks for the Supreme Court. The Court enjoined a lower court order rescinding the Food and Drug Administration's approval of the abortion pill. It heard oral arguments in a major religious liberty case, a case involving stalking and threats, and a case involving a made-for-movies story of fast cars, Beverly Hills mansions, and Russian fraudsters. The Court also handed down a few opinions including one that is sure to shake the administrative state. Your hosts discuss it all, and then GianCarlo quizzes Zack with trivia about the Court's historically slow pace.
