We're going to come back to end the show to where we started it today with some Supreme

That still leaves a number of cases still to be decided.

In the case I just mentioned, Holland versus Brachene, as well as some of the big cases

yet to be decided, such big cases on affirmative action, election integrity, other things, and

back with us is our June court watcher, Ellie Mastal, just as correspondent for the nation,

author of the book, Allow Me to Retort a Black Eyes Guide to the Constitution, now out

should be given to parents in the same tribe who are also Native American.
