650: Kennedy and Casey
Manage episode 520672155 series 80984
John Gerardi and Jonathan Keller dive into Justice Anthony Kennedy's new memoir and tear apart his legacy on the Supreme Court, focusing on his swing vote in Planned Parenthood v. Casey that preserved Roe v. Wade for three more decades. They explore Kennedy's obsession with "liberty," his lack of judicial philosophy, and the devastating cultural impact of his decisions. Along the way, the conversation expands into reflections on the fragility of human life, from childbirth to the end of life, and why our culture's approach to sex and marriage is so deeply disordered.
