War Crimes, Christian Nationalism, and the 25th Amendment
4/13/20261 hr 18 min
Even though the Supreme Court took a break from hearing oral arguments, there was still plenty of legal news breaking every day. Katie Phang joins Leah to recap that news, including Trump's threats against Iran, the overt Christian nationalist rhetoric coming from the Secretary of Defense, and a disturbing case that SCOTUS decided not to hear. Then, Emily Amick, joins Leah to talk all things 25th Amendment-- where it came from, why we probably won't see it invoked here and now, and why we should keep talking about it anyways.

Strict Scrutiny is brought to you by Americans United for Separation of Church and State. Since the nation's founding, the values of religious liberty and pluralism have been central to the American identity. Those values are now under accelerated attack. The government has no authority to pick and choose which religious beliefs to promote and which to marginalize. Religious freedom for only some is religious freedom for none. The Trump/Vance administration's Religious Liberty Commission is pursuing a culture of Christian nationalism that seeks to divide and isolate people across our nation. The fatally flawed way this commission was assembled makes clear that the predetermined outcome isn't just un-American, it's against the law. The Trump/Vance administration has failed to uphold our country's proud religious freedom tradition, and we need to hold them accountable. Be part of the movement that's pushing back and standing up for freedom. You can register today to attend the Summit for Religious Freedom at thesrf.org.

My new website's been getting a lot of attention lately, and here's my secret: I used Wix Harmony. It's one of my favorite tools because it feels like such a natural way to create, and I have so much control over my website. I can just tell Aria, my AI agent, to create whatever I'm imagining in my head, or I can click anywhere on my site and change things myself. Try it for free at wix.com/harmony. That's wix.com/harmony.
