Welcome to this episode of the award-winning Best of a Left podcast.

The idea of the founders was to separate and balance the powers of the federal government,

and, as Madison wrote, that ambition would counteract ambition.

The problem we face now is that the ambition of the Supreme Court is to give as much power

as possible to the executive branch, because, ironically, they seem to be nostalgic for a

king.

For those looking for a quick overview, the sources providing our top takes in about 50 minutes

today includes parallax views, Bloomberg Law, strict scrutiny, justice by design, amicus,

the Majority Report, and the Tom Hartman program.

Then, in the additional deeper dives have at the show, there will be more in five sections.

Section A, shadowy and future rulings, Section B, the implications, Section C, the GOP's judges, Section D, Dictator Trump,

and Section E, sort of positive, I guess.

But first, a reminder to check out our new show solved on the Best of Left YouTube channel.

We're very proud of the show we're making.

You're going to like it.

This week we discussed the aesthetics of fascism. That includes the brutal, highly crafted personal look known as

Mar-a-Lago face, the highly dystopian AI slop churned out by far-right trolls, including

those managing the White House Twitter feed, the staging of dehumanizing photo ops, and the interplay

between all three. We definitely think that you'll get value out of it, and you checking it out

will actually help us find viewers on the YouTube platform as well. So thanks in advance

for all of your views, likes, subscribes, and comments. That's all on the best of luck YouTube channel, linked in the show notes.

And now, onto the show.
