Shock and Awe
As President George W. Bush declares “Mission Accomplished” in the Iraq War, his administration wages a different war with swing-state senators defying his judicial nominees.

This is part two of our story about the creation of the Roberts Court. Get Master Plan episodes early and ad-free by becoming a paid subscriber.
