The Series Finale of America

Native Land Pod

It’s been an eventful week, y’all!

IMMUNE. That’s what the Supreme Court said is the case for any “official” act taken by a sitting US President. Boy are they tearing this country up.

To quote the dissenting opinion written by Justice Sotomayor, “Orders the Navy's Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune… In every use of official power, the president is now a king above the law.” Justice Soto, we join your dissent!

The hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum dive into what this crisis of a ruling really means for the rest of us.

In what is undeniably a difficult political moment don’t become despondent!! Support your local candidates and bolster Democratic forces near you.

And of course we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFam. We are 127 number days away from the election. Welcome home y’all!
