A court hearing in Maryland yesterday kicked off a two-week legal sprint that could shake America's system of checks and balances. On its surface, the wrongful deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a story about immigration policy and government power. But dig deeper, and the stakes for the rule of law are profound. Senior legal affairs reporter Josh Gerstein joins Playbook managing editor and author Jack Blanchard to discuss the implications of the hearing and what to expect next.

A hearing will get underway shortly in the US state of Maryland as President Donald Trump and the President of El Salvador say there's nothing they can do to return a mistakenly deported man back to the United States. POLITICO's senior legal affairs reporter Josh Gerstein spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

What's behind that effort, and where does it go from here? Senior legal correspondent Josh Gerstein joins Playbook author and managing editor Jack Blanchard to discuss.

In the U-S there's plenty of concern in the Democratic Party after the first debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. Concerns that Biden is too old for the job have reached higher levels than ever before after he stumbled over several answers - often rambling and appearing confused. Senior reporter with POLITICO, Josh Gerstein spoke to Corin Dann.

Joe Biden sharpens his message on abortion rights ahead of the first presidential debate of the 2024 campaign. The Biden team released a campaign ad taking aim at Donald Trump for his role in overturning Roe v. Wade. Also, the government and Trump's lawyers face off at a hearing on a proposed gag order in the classified documents case. Plus, Special Olympics chair Tim Shriver on how his "Dignity Index" can help us all find common ground. Barbara McQuade, Jon Allen, Josh Gerstein, Neal Katyal, Mark McKinnon, Heidi Heitkamp, and Tim Shriver join.

It could happen today. It could happen tomorrow. And you can count on it happening next week, too. The Supreme Court has 22 remaining cases left on the docket, and with time ticking down on this term, the floodgates are about to open. From abortion restrictions to Trump's claims of presidential immunity in his bid to subvert the 2020 election, to social media censorship, to a decision that could gut the regulatory state, the decisions that remain could have a sweeping impact on American life. Senior legal affairs reporter Josh Gerstein sits down with Playbook co-author Eugene Daniels to walk through some of the key cases and what pros should watch for.

The U.S President's son, Hunter Biden, has been found guilty on all three counts in his gun crime trial. Politico's Josh Gerstein spoke to Corin Dann.

Join moderator Jeffrey Goldberg, Josh Gerstein of Politico, Mara Liasson of NPR, Ed O'Keefe CBS News and Nancy Youssef of The Wall Street Journal to discuss this and more.

Politico reporter Josh Gerstein explains why Trump’s political fate likely won’t be decided by the courts. Atomic veterans are on the verge of losing federal benefits. NPR reports on how Congress hasn't helped. Many insomniacs swear by dull narrators who put them to sleep, whether on purpose or not. The Wall Street Journal examines the phenomenon. Today’s episode was guest-hosted by Yasmeen Khan.

When a porn star took the stand in a New York courtroom, her account of sex with Donald Trump was so detailed and at times graphic, the former US president's lawyers called for a mistrial.Trump often kept his eyes closed as Stormy Daniels spoke about an alleged sexual encounter in 2006. He denies they had sex at all. The criminal trial is all about a hush money payment she says she received before the 2016 election. Today, Josh Gerstein, the senior legal affairs reporter for Politico, takes us through the evidence.Featured: Josh Gerstein, Politico senior legal affairs reporter

A majority of the Supreme Court seemed less than favorable toward a bid to sharply limit access to mifepristone, a key medication in more than 60 percent of U.S. abortions. As they weighed the FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine case, the justices questioned whether anti-abortion doctors have sufficient legal grounds — or standing — to bring the lawsuit.

When you think of “hard news”, a company that once published an article called “13 Potatoes That Look Like Channing Tatum” probably isn't the first thing that comes to mind. Yes, in this episode Hannah and Maia are tackling Buzzfeed - the millennial fluff aggregator that managed to be on the cutting edge of digital journalism for a bit there. And in the process, changed the way we consume news, and maybe even the societal flow of information altogether. Journalism is in crisis… and is Buzzfeed to blame? Listen for riveting discussions such as: the digital media gold rush and its inevitable demise; is Trump the attention economy personified? Is Justin Bieber one of the four horsemen of the news apocalypse? And… does Anna Wintour really have a f*ck ass bob?  SOURCES: Jill Abramson, “Why BuzzFeed and Vice Couldn't Make News Work” Vanity Fair (2023).
