Ilya Shapiro on Supreme Disorder: Judicial Nominations and the Politics of America’s Highest Court

The Orange County Federalist Society is pleased to host Ilya Shapiro to discuss his 2020 book (timely as ever) Supreme Disorder: Judicial Nominations and the Politics of America’s Highest Court. [Alt sources: B&N, Regnery.] Shapiro's book traces the history of Supreme Court nominations and confirmation battles since the founding. Shapiro argues that today's confirmation battles are different only in degree, not in kind – that the stakes in Court appointments are commensurate with the stakes in Court influence.
