Breaking Down Trump's Strategies: Economy, Tariffs, and Tensions with Ukraine with Joey Garrison

Saison 5 · Épisode 74

mercredi 5 mars 2025 • Durée 32:56

In this episode of Passing Judgment, host Jessica Levinson is joined by Joey Garrison, USA Today's White House correspondent, to navigate the latest developments of the Trump administration. They discuss key topics such as executive orders, federal workforce cuts, tariffs, and the influence of Elon Musk's Doge efforts. Additionally, they explore the Democrats' strategic responses and the congressional dynamics surrounding President Trump's economic and foreign policies.

Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:

White House Changes and Cuts: The discussion begins with Joey Garrison outlining the sweeping changes made by the Trump administration, particularly through executive orders aimed at fulfilling promises to the MAGA base. A significant emphasis was on the creation of Doge, led by Elon Musk, which has been actively involved in restructuring federal departments and proposing workforce reductions.

Impact of Tariffs on the Economy: The tariffs imposed on neighboring Mexico and Canada, as well as increased tariffs on Chinese imports, formed another major topic. The discussion touched on the political and economic ramifications of these tariffs, including rising consumer prices, diminished consumer confidence, and negative polling for President Trump on economic management.

Foreign Policy – Ukraine and Russia: A significant portion of the episode covers the meeting between President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky, primarily concerning US-Ukraine relations and mineral agreements. The dispute and its implications for US support to Ukraine were discussed, with Trump administration's stance on withholding aid until diplomatic talks are pursued by Ukraine.

The Supreme Court's Role in Trump's Firing Case with Katie Buehler

Saison 5 · Épisode 73

mardi 25 février 2025 • Durée 13:25

In this episode of Passing Judgment, we explore the Supreme Court’s decision to abstain from ruling on a Trump emergency appeal about firing Hampton Dellinger, head of the Office of Special Counsel. Jessica Levinson and Katie Buehler, Law360's Supreme Court reporter, analyze the nuances of presidential power and the debate over the constitutionality of restricting executive authority.

Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:

Supreme Court Decision on Trump Emergency Appeal: The episode discusses the Supreme Court's recent decision not to review an emergency appeal concerning the firing of Hampton Dellinger from his position as the head of the Office of Special Counsel. The court allowed the temporary restraining order, which pauses the firing, to run its course and expire.

Legal Arguments and Statute Constitutionality: The legal argument centers on whether President Trump had to provide a reason for Dellinger's firing, as required by federal law. Trump’s administration argues that the statute requiring a reason is unconstitutional and that the president should have the power to fire at will. This theme explores the larger question of presidential authority and statutory constraints.

Significant Supreme Court Cases: Katie Buehler highlights other significant Supreme Court cases beyond the Trump-related decision, including a case involving the Federal Communications Commission's authority and executive power, as well as cases on religious rights such as opting-out of LGBTQ-related education and funding for religious charter schools.

Saison 5 · Épisode 64

mardi 17 décembre 2024 • Durée 25:25

In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica sits down with Sam Levine from The Guardian to unpack the future of voting rights under the Trump administration.

Sam also clarifies common misconceptions about election fraud and administration, highlighting what to watch for in the coming years.

Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:

1️⃣ Trump Administration and Voting Rights: Sam Levine outlines the anticipated approach of the Trump administration regarding voting rights, including the potential use of the Department of Justice (DOJ) to challenge election outcomes and influence election administration.

2️⃣ Role and Powers of the Department of Justice: The DOJ's role in enforcing federal laws, particularly civil rights and voting rights laws, is explained. Shifts in administration can significantly alter DOJ priorities.

3️⃣ Election Security and Misconceptions: The podcast addresses common misconceptions about voter fraud and the robustness of election systems. Sam Levine stresses the rarity of voter fraud and the extensive safeguards in place.

Donald Trump Is Subpoenaed and Deposed, Steve Bannon Is Sentenced

Saison 4 · Épisode 184

samedi 22 octobre 2022 • Durée 01:05

The former president had a no good, very bad legal week. The January 6th Committee served him with a subpoena. He was deposed in a defamation case brought by journalist E. Jean Carroll. And a federal judge found that it is more likely than not that Trump and one of his attorneys, John Eastman, engaged in a crime related to thwarting the peaceful transfer of power. Oh, and Steve Bannon was sentenced for contempt of Congress. Jessica breaks it all down in plain English.

It is going to be another huge term for the Supreme Court. Here is why.

Saison 4 · Épisode 182

dimanche 16 octobre 2022 • Durée 01:05

After an earth-shattering term that ended federal protection for abortion in the last term, the 6-3 Supreme Court GOP majority is flexing its power in the new 2022-2023 term. Jessica welcomes the PJP producer and co-host Joe Armstrong back to discuss upcoming cases about redistricting and voting rights, a 1st Amendment case that deals with Andy Warhol (you read that right), a pair of cases that address affirmative action, yet another religious rights and discrimination case, and a doozy of a case with colossal implications that deals with what what is referred to as the independent legislature doctrine. And there is a new justice on the bench, with Ketanji Brown Jackson displaying a keen legal mind in the first oral arguments of the new session.
