Pod Save America - Sarah McBride’s Challenge to Democrats
Rep. Sarah McBride has found herself the target of GOP attacks since taking office in January. They've barred her from restrooms and misgendered her in Congressional hearings, but the freshman congresswoman has risen above it all. Now she's got a message for her fellow Democrats: politics only works when you win over people who disagree with you. McBride sits down with Jon and Lovett to discuss the literal and figurative dangers of being a main character, Democrats' purity complex, and whether the party has abandoned the only strategy for social change that actually gets results.

Consider This from NPR - Behind two high-profile deportation cases, a legal crisis grows
This week, two federal judges handling separate immigration cases escalated their attempts to get the Trump administration to comply with court orders.
One case involves President Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act, the 18th-century wartime law, to deport migrants without due process.
The other is about the wrongful deportation, also without due process, of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, and the government's refusal to bring him back to the U.S.
The growing conflicts point to a potential constitutional crisis, where the president openly defies the country's highest court — or at least, as one legal scholar maintains, a crisis at the Supreme Court.
Our guest is University of Virginia professor Amanda Frost, who specializes in immigration and citizenship law.
