Podcast: 5-4Rating: Explicit Published On: Tue Jan 23 2024
Description: There's a powerfully connected right-wing organization operating at every elite law school in the nation.

This is the story of the Federalist Society.If you can't get enough of these monsters, you may want to read The Rise of the Conservative Legal Movement: The Battle for Control of the Law (Princeton, 2008) by Steven Teles, or listen to ProPublica and WNYC's "We Don't Talk About Leonard" series on On the Media.If you're not a 5-4 Premium member, you're not hearing every episode!
