Slow Burn S11 Trailer: Becoming Justice Gorsuch

Description

Slow Burn: Becoming Justice Gorsuch is out now, wherever you get your podcasts. Almost a decade ago, Slate launched Slow Burn to process Donald Trump’s rise to the White House. Now, in his chaotic second administration, Trump is eroding pillars of American government in ways that are both highly destructive and deeply unpopular. One of his biggest, most troubling power grabs is underway at the U.S. Supreme Court. That’s where Slow Burn: Becoming Justice Gorsuch comes in. Hosted by Slate executive editor Susan Matthews, the new season tells the story of Trump’s first transformative appointment to the high court. Neil Gorsuch isn’t the flashiest justice on the bench. He’s a mild-mannered self-styled Westerner with good hair, and maybe the one some Americans would struggle to identify in a photo of the current court. But he’s the wild card on the most powerful Supreme Court in modern history, the swing vote in certain critical cases, and a central anchor of the conservative supermajority reshaping American life. To understand this court and where it’s headed, you must understand Gorsuch.
