‘Last Branch Standing’: A Conversation on the Supreme Court With Sarah Isgur & David French
Join us for a special Batten Hour conversation with Sarah Isgur, editor of SCOTUSblog and co-host of the popular legal podcast “Advisory Opinions,” discussing her new book, Last Branch Standing: A Potentially Surprising, Occasionally Witty Journey Inside Today’s Supreme Court. Isgur is joined by her longtime podcast co-host David French, columnist at The New York Times, for a wide-ranging discussion on what the media consistently gets wrong about the Court, why the conventional 6–3 framing obscures more than it reveals, and what it will take to preserve the Court's independence in an era of institutional distrust.
This event is hosted by the Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy in partnership with the Karsh Institute of Democracy.
