Crisis of Legitimacy (S01E04)

The Court's controversial decisions, including the landmark Dobbs ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, intensify accusations of partisanship. As the youthful, staunchly conservative majority takes charge, the Court becomes a focal point in the debate over its influence on American society for years to come.
