What the Hell Exactly Happened for Abortion in Pennsylvania?
2 februari 2024 · 22 min
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court issued a ruling this week regarding abortion, and there's been some confusion around it. No, the court didn't find a fundamental right to abortion in the state constitution. However, the justices did pave the way for that possibility as they weighed whether Medicaid must cover abortions in Pennsylvania. Lees meer

Why Is the Biden Administration Throwing Doctors Under the Bus?
26 januari 2024 · 28 min
After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the Biden administration issued guidance on the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) to say that emergency care at Medicare-funded hospitals includes abortion care. Lees meer
So why, when there has been a clear violation of that, did the administration side with the hospital over the patient who needed care and throw doctors under the bus?
This week, Jess and Imani get into Jaci Statton's case—the perfect example of what's wrong with relying on EMTALA to enforce abortion rights.

The Major Trans Rights Case SCOTUS Could Hear Next Year
1 december 2023 · 26 min
You'll likely be hearing a lot more about L.W. v. Skrmetti, a trans rights case that the ACLU has requested the Supreme Court takes up. Lees meer
Jess and Imani get into the nuts and bolts of the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals decision that allowed Tennessee's gender-affirming ban targeting trans kids to take effect, breaking previous federal court consensus that these bans are unconstitutional. Led by Judge Jeffrey Sutton, a George W. Bush appointee, it was the first decision to let a gender-affirming ban take effect, which has led to a domino effect on other similar bans in the country.

The Originalist Case for Arming Domestic Abusers
17 november 2023 · 21 min
Meet Zackey Rahimi, someone who apparently has never met a situation he didn’t try to shoot his way out of, including family, random drivers, and Whataburger. Lees meer
Jess and Imani are back to break down last week's Supreme Court oral arguments in his case, United States v. Rahimi, which boils down to originalism on steroids. As Jess says Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar's oral arguments showed, "If you believe in originalism like, really believe in it with your whole chest, then you also really believe in Christian patriarchy that includes men having dominion over women and children the same way that God has dominion over his creations. That's how you enshrine that kind of dominionist religious belief into legal code. That idea of dominion as a philosophy is the basis of property law—and now it might become the basis of Second Amendment law."

It's Time to Impeach Alito
21 november 2022 · 28 min
Jess and Imani get into the heart of the New York Times' bombshell reporting over the weekend that alleges Justice Samuel Alito leaked a 2014 opinion on a big contraception case. So, just how corrupt is Alito, and can anything be done about it? Lees meer

The Supreme Court v. The People
14 november 2022 · 23 min
If the midterms solidified anything, it's this: Lees meer
The Supreme Court is a vehicle for how the white supremacist project of dominance—the relegation of women and other potential pregnant people to second-class citizenship and erasure of marginalized people—will be implemented.
Jess and Imani get deep into how the election showed we’re in a battle between the democratic will of the voters and a captured federal judiciary that is intent on imposing its own white Christian vision of the United States.
And yes, while we learned that when abortion is on the ballot, abortion wins, it means the anti-abortion movement will work even harder to keep abortion off the ballot moving forward.

SCOTUS Gutting Native Families Will Usher In Cultural Genocide
9 november 2022 · 51 min
While you were paying attention to the midterm election results, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in cases challenging the constitutionality of the Indian Child Welfare Act, which was enacted 44 years ago this week to keep Native children and their families intact. Lees meer
In this rapid reaction episode, Jess and Imani lay out what's at stake in Brackeen v. Haaland and other consolidated cases for tribal sovereignty and protections—and how overturning the precedent set forth in the ICWA will mean Native children will pay the price.
As Imani says, "We're talking about the literal destruction of tribal sovereignty as it's been in place for centuries, and that should concern everyone."

Neil Gorsuch Is a Snake—and We Almost Missed It
24 oktober 2022 · 30 min
Imani and Jess are being upfront—and admitting they got something wrong. It’s about the 2020 Supreme Court decision in Bostock v. Clayton County, in which the justices held that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act protects trans and gay employees at the workplace. Lees meer
Upon reflection, it turns out that the Bostock opinion is one giant goose egg—and Justice Neil Gorsuch is to blame. As Jess says in the episode, "He managed to write the decision and tailor it so narrowly that it left open room for future conservative fuckery."
That moment has arrived.

Your favorite legal journalists Jessica Mason Pieklo and Imani Gandy bring you everything you need to know about the new Supreme Court term and how the cases on the docket will represent the biggest step forward for the white evangelical movement in modern history. Lees meer
As Imani says in the episode, by the end of summer 2023, we could be looking at a world where business owners can discriminate against LGBTQ folks, tribal sovereignty is destroyed, and Black and brown voters experience even more voter suppression than they already do.
"It's bananas to me to think that we're previewing a term that's poised to be worse than one that overruled Roe v. Wade, that erased from history 50 years of constitutional law precedent—but here we are," Jess says.

Biden Finally Did Something About Abortion! Or Did He?
11 juli 2022 · 36 min
President Joe Biden took some baby steps—finally—to protect abortion in the country. But it's just not enough to get folks abortion care today. Lees meer
In a new episode of Boom! Lawyered, co-hosts Jessica Mason Pieklo and Imani Gandy dig into Biden's broad-strokes executive order, which is delivers big on aspirations and little on actual direction and action points.
As Jess says in the episode: “Waiting to respond, issuing a response that so clearly doesn’t meet the moment—we’re sending signals that what the Supreme Court is doing is OK. Like the Supreme Court is functionally exercising a judicial coup in this country. It’s just doing what it wants because it can. The law is no longer a barrier to anything.”
