  • Summary

  • By the year 2038, The Supreme Court as we know it will cease to exist. That's the prediction of legal reporter Dahlia Lithwick, who thinks that divided, partisan power in Washington will make it impossible to confirm new justices to the highest court in the land. Which means that as justices die or retire, they won't be replaced, and by 2038, the only remnants of an increasingly meek and retiring court will be Elena Kagan and Neil Gorsuch, casting lots inside a closet to decide important cases. Dahlia covers the courts and our evolving legal landscape for Slate.com where she hosts the podcast Amicus. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
