In this first episode of our new miniseries, We Don’t Talk About Leonard, ProPublica reporters Andrea Bernstein, Andy Kroll, and Ilya Marritz investigate the background of the man who has played a critical role in the conservative takeover of America’s courts — Leonard Leo. From his humble roots in middle class New Jersey, to a mansion in Maine where last year he hosted a fabulous party on the eve of the Supreme Court decision to tank “Roe.”
there’s two episodes so far. the second episode gets into the state supreme courts and the funneling of select state cases towards the supreme court.
i find the background music overly loud and distracting, other than that though it’s pretty good
