In Season 2, Episode 3 of Notorious, we discuss the case of Grutter v. Bollinger, which involved the question of whether a law school admissions policy that considered race as a factor in admissions violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment or Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The 5-4 majority opinion decided that the law school's admission policy complied with the Equal Protection Clause and was written by Justice O'Connor and joined in whole by Justice Ginsburg, Justice Stevens, and Justice Breyer. The Court found that the law school's stated interest that it wanted to maintain diversity of its student body was a compelling government interest and that compelling interest withstood strict scrutiny by the Court. Justice Ginsburg filed a concurrence, joined by Justice Breyer, agreeing in the judgment and in the overall opinion, but elaborating on Justice O'Connor's point in reference to the timeline she expected universities and other institutions to maintain race as one of the considerations that go into the admissions process.  Patterson Belknap attorneys Michelle Bufano, Alejandro Cruz, and Amir Badat discuss Justice Ginsburg's impact on this case.

Featuring guest speaker, Mai Ratakonda of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. In Season 2, Episode 2 of Notorious, we discuss the case of Gonzales v. Carhart, which involved the Supreme Court's consideration of the constitutionality of The Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003 (“the Act”). In 2003, Congress passed and President Bush signed the Act into law. Dr. LeRoy Carhart and other physicians, who performed late term abortions, sued to stop the Act from going into effect. A federal district court agreed and ruled the Act unconstitutional. The government appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, which upheld the lower court's ruling. The question ultimately presented to the Supreme Court was whether the Act was an unconstitutional violation of the personal liberty protected by the Fifth Amendment because the Act lacked an exception for partial birth abortion necessary to protect mothers. In a 5-4 ruling, the majority ruled that there was no undue burden because there are other types of abortions that one could get in their second trimester. Justice Ginsburg wrote the dissent, joined by Justice Stevens, Justice Souter, and Justice Breyer. The dissent criticized the majority for failing to follow precedent in this case. Specifically, Justice Ginsburg noted “Retreating from prior rulings that abortion restrictions cannot be imposed absent an exception safeguarding a woman's health, the Court upholds an Act that surely would not survive under the close scrutiny that previously attended state decreed limitations on a woman's reproductive choices.” Mai Ratakonda of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, joined by Patterson Belknap attorneys Michelle Bufano and Patricia Kim discuss Justice Ginsburg's impact on this case.

Retired Supreme Court justice John Paul Stevens discusses some changes he would make to the U.S. Constitution in his recent book, Six Amendments: How and Why We Should Change the Constitution . There are chapters on political gerrymandering, campaign finance, the death penalty, and gun control, among others. On guns, Justice Stevens notes the Second Amendment was adopted to protect the states from federal interference with their power to ensure that their militias were “well regulated.” As a result of more recent rulings, federal judges have the ultimate power to determine the validity of state regulations of both civilian and militia-related uses of arms. Stevens says this anomalous result can be avoided by adding five words to the Second Amendment to make it unambiguously conform to the original intent. With those words, it would now read, “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms when serving in the

Justice Stevens shows us what Republicans could be, if they had any empathy, compassion, intelligence, or decency. He also showed us what we should expect of the guardians of our constitution and rules of law, and how far we have come from that ideal.  Robert Mueller's testimony and its aftermath show us just how fragile democracy is when you have a criminal as President, and how great is the threat to US democracy right now. California's deal with auto companies on fuel standards shows what is possible when government wants to govern. Puerto Rico shows us what can be accomplished by an energized citizenry; Boris Johnson shows us what's possible when the opposite is the case, how Donald Trump is not a unique threat, and just how fragile it all is.

That marked the second time this week that police used tear gas outside the governor's mansion amid growing outrage directed at Rosselló, a member of Puerto Rico's New Progressive Party who is affiliated with Democrats nationally. Despite the mounting unrest, Rosselló has refused to step down. He told reporters in a news conference on Tuesday, "I have not committed any illegal acts, I only committed improper acts," and "I will continue my work and my responsibility to the people of Puerto Rico." There is no recall law in Puerto Rico, and the power to impeach the governor rests with the legislature, both houses of which are controlled by the New Progressive Party.As promised, the United States is refusing to sell F-35 jets to Turkey after that country purchased missile systems from Russia.

Accepting the S-400 undermines the commitments all NATO allies made to each other to move away from Russian systems."Former US Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens died Tuesday, just months shy of his 100th birthday. He was a very important and pivotal figure on the court. He was not a blind ideologue, a jurist who came to the court with a worldview and an approach to jurisprudence that could not be swayed by the facts and a changing world. Yesterday I gave you my analysis on Justice Stevens' impact, but today I want to provide you all with some deeper insight.GUESTS:Bob Schlehuber — Producer for By Any Means Necessary and Sputnik news analyst. Mark Sleboda — International affairs and security analyst. The Honorable Arthur L. Burnett Sr. — First African-American US magistrate judge.

When we do a Supreme Court term preview, we of course turn to Slate’s amazing Dahlia Lithwick, and then we proceed not to discuss the upcoming term. We begin with a whirlwind fourteen minutes of feedback on, among other things, an index for the show, the Cyberloquium, the potential for classes in our goofy style, the North Dakotan listening trend, listening while cooking, the possibility of a Dworkin episode, surname vs. last name, the use of “antepenultimate,” the dearth of recent speed trap law discussion, and a tease further discussion of law and morals. With Dahlia, we then talk about the Supreme Court’s new rule on standing in line for oral arguments, what it means when the Court does things that are not manifest in written opinions, the idea of Supreme Court previews, and looking ahead.

Mike welcomes [The 45th Podcast's](https://45thpod.com/) Susan Simpson to the show, in Part II of The Politics Guys / The 45th Podcast host exchange. Mike and Susan open with a look at the shakeup at the VA, with Mike questioning the managerial qualifications of Ronny Jackson, President Trump's choice to take over for David Shulkin at the massive VA. Susan argues that no reasonable person would even want the VA job, and suggests that Jackson's fawning estimate of the president's health, along with a desire for power, are what may have made him Trump's pick. Next it's discussion of the recent announcement by the Department of Commerce that the 2020 Census will have a questions about citizenship status. Both Mike and Susan are skeptical of the motives of the Justice Department, which requested the question be added. Mike hesitates to call the move racist, but points out that any likely political advantage from the move will be to the Republicans. After that, Mike and Susan turn to a discussion of what North Korean leader Kim Jung Un's recent meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, and his upcoming meetings with South Korea's Moon Jae-in and President Trump, might mean. Mike suggests that President Trump's tougher stance could be bearing fruit, though he concedes that even a Democratic administration would have almost certainly ratcheted up sanctions in response to the North's nuclear tests. Susan says there's no policy here but chaos, and is concerned that President Trump might lead us into an unnecessary armed conflict with North Korea. Then it's a look at the March for our Lives and Justice Stevens recent call for repeal of the Second Amendment. Mike and Susan are both big supporters of the March and hope that it leads to significant change. They differ somewhat on Justice Stevens advocacy for a repeal of the Second Amendment. Mike feels it's a gift to the NRA and not necessary, as even the draconian gun regulations in Washington D.C. - far tougher than what most people are calling for - are possible without touching the Second Amendment. Susan doesn't entirely disagree, but argues that the Second Amendment can make reasonable gun laws more difficult to pass, and points out that even a repeal wouldn't make firearms illegal. After that, they discuss the increasingly strained relations between Russia and the United States in the wake of tit-for-tat expulsions of diplomats and closing of consulates. Susan points out that despite this strong U.S. response - which she argues Trump was forced to make - we still haven't heard the president say anything negative about Vladimir Putin. She argues that's because Putin almost certainly has damaging information on Trump. **Show Notes** **What Susan's Reading & Listening To:** [Maryland appeals court decision in Adnan Syed case](https://bsun.md/2pTHSuC).
