14:17Now PlayingAttorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian expose six major cases on the Supreme Court's docket challenging Trump administration actions, starting with Learning Resources v. Trump and Trump v. V.O.S. Selections challenging his authority to unilaterally impose tariffs costing businesses billions despite Congress holding constitutional authority over trade under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The hosts reveal how Trump v. Slaughter challenges his at-will removal of FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter despite statutory protections requiring cause, threatening agency independence under Humphrey's Executor, while Trump v. Cook involves removing Lisa Cook, the first Black woman on the Federal Reserve Board, based on disputed mortgage fraud allegations that Cook has denied so he can manipulate interest rates before midterms. They detail how Trump v. American Federation of Government Employees challenges mass federal workforce firings violating civil service protections and collective bargaining agreements, while Trump v. CASA challenges his executive order denying birthright citizenship to children born in the U.S. if one parent lacks legal status—directly violating the 14th Amendment in what the hosts call a "first year law school" constitutional issue that will be the ultimate litmus test for the Court. The hosts note the Court will also hear transgender rights cases from West Virginia and Idaho involving equal protection under Title IX, with oral arguments scheduled through early 2026.
