Renowned First Amendment lawyer Martin Garbus examines what will be the impact of the new Supreme Court on the future of the US republic. Drawing on extensive knowledge of Constitutional law and legal procedure, Garbus defrocks the executive branch's grip over the judiciary as an extension of its own powers. He warns of the threat of an incoming 'textualist' bench that wishes to roll back more than a century of hard-won reforms. And he offers the first clear-eyed account of how the new bench may endanger the US public's enjoyed liberty.
