Less than an hour before our Substack Live, the Supreme Court paved the way for the Trump administration to effectively dismantle the Department of Education.
Adam, you start out by asking Ms Wang how she reconciles the wavering responses of the Supreme Court to DOJ ‘s lawless agenda ; sometimes they hold the administration to the rule of law and other times, with no explanation, they roll over.
Ms Wang by saying the court gives us a “mixed bag”. This strikes me as a bland and mealy-mouthed answer to your question; an administrator who does not want to ruffle any feathers. In fact she cannot reconcile the court’s wavering, and they act like there should be no requirement for them to do so. They depreciate the lower courts frequently, without giving clear reasoning, yet show no inclination to scrutinize themselves. THANK GOD THEY HAVE WRITTEN DISSENT BUILT INTO THEIR METHOD.
Later, you ask.her why they choose to give in to Trump, and she responds by saying they may be afraid to “loose cspital” with the president. What does she mean by this? Is she suggesting that they fear using their power because he will try to hurt them?
Thank you for attempting to hold her feet to the fire.
