Dissent
Dissent is a podcast miniseries about our current Supreme Court. In each episode, senior Intercept reporter and host Jordan Smith explores a major case that the Supreme Court is taking up in 2023, breaking down the stakes of the legislation and the implications of the court’s extreme right-wing majority. She’s joined by legal analysts and experts to tackle cases that will determine the fate of free and fair elections, tribal sovereignty, civil rights protections, the EPA’s regulatory authority, and whether Rodney Reed, who sits on Texas death row, can pursue DNA testing that may establish his innocence.
