Lawfare Daily: The Court Against the Courts with Steve Vladeck and Kate Klonick

The Lawfare Podcast

On August 5, Lawfare Senior Editor Kate Klonick sat down for a live discussion on Substack with Georgetown Law Professor Steve Vladeck to discuss his forthcoming Harvard Law Review Foreword, “The Court Against the Courts,” which chronicles institutional attacks on the lower federal courts. Vladeck argues not just that the Court failed to shield district judges from impeachment threats and harassment campaigns, but that it bears “significant responsibility” for what’s happened to them. 

For more on this, Vladeck also wrote about the article on his Substack.
