The discussion underscores the broader implications for judicial independence and the rule of law. Santelle also covers the developing stories around Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers receiving threats from the Trump Administration for his actions on advising state officials on how to interact with federal immigration officials.

The episode also explores recent U.S. Supreme Court cases, including debates on religious charter schools and parental opt-outs in public school curriculums, posing significant First Amendment questions.
