How did we get here and what can we do about it? Crooked Media podcast host Leah Litman shines a light on the unabashed lawlessness embraced by conservative Supreme Court justices and shows us how to fight back. \u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith the gravitas of Joan Biskupic and the irreverence of Elie Mystal, Leah Litman brings her signature wit to the question of what's gone wrong at One First Street. In \u003ci\u003eLawless\u003c\/i\u003e, she argues that the Supreme Court is no longer practicing law; it's running on vibes. By \"vibes,\" Litman means legal-ish claims that repackage the politics of conservative grievance and dress them up in robes. Major decisions adopt the language and posture of the law, while in fact displaying a commitment to protecting a single minority: the religious conservatives and Republican officials whose views are no longer shared by a majority of the country. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDahlia Lithwick's \u003ci\u003eLady Justice \u003c\/i\u003emeets Rebecca Traister's \u003ci\u003eGood and Mad \u003c\/i\u003eas Litman employs pop culture references and the latest decisions to deliver a funny, zeitgeisty, pulls-no-punches cri de coeur undergirded by impeccable scholarship. She gives us the tools we need to understand the law, the dynamics of courts, and the stakes of this current moment--even as she makes us chuckle on every page and emerge empowered to fight for a better future.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLeah Litman is a professor of law at the University of Michigan and a former Supreme Court clerk.
