The Supreme Court does not belong in the crosshairs of the American political debate. Neal Katyal discusses how the court’s rush to decide social controversies and overturn foundational precedents is damaging its legitimacy. Katyal addresses the court’s recent decisions concerning presidential immunity and regulatory agencies and their implications for American democracy.
Neal Katyal is the Paul and Patricia Saunders Professor of National Security Law at Georgetown University and a partner at Hogan Lovells. He previously served as acting solicitor general of the United States. Katyal has argued 50+ cases before the Supreme Court, which is more than any other minority attorney in US history. He is also a Kettering Foundation Senior Fellow.

The Context is a podcast from the Charles F. Kettering Foundation, about the history, trends, and ideas shaping democracy in the United States and around the world. Every episode, host Alex Lovit, a senior program officer and historian with the foundation, interviews someone who has seen it all-scholars, politicians, journalists, and public servants. We’ll get their take on how we got to where we are, and what they’ve seen through their experience, not only watching the news unfold, but sometimes even being the news itself.
In these conversations, we’ll talk about things like inclusive democracy, citizen engagement, government accountability, and the threat of authoritarianism. Every question has its reason, and every answer has its context.
