In this very speacial episode of The Asset, legal journalist Dahlia Lithwick (Slate’s Amicus podcast) exposes how Trump’s second-term agenda—and cases like Dr. Rasha Alawieh’s deportation and Mahmoud Khalil’s ICE detention—are testing judicial independence.

We break down:

  • The "metaphorical weapons" courts still have against executive overreach;
  • Why Chief Justice Roberts’ rare public warning matters now;
  • Project 2025’s blueprint for reshaping the judiciary; and
  • Real-world impacts on immigrants, academics, and civil liberties.
