This week's episode gets the big cases out of the way early, as the Court dropped California v. Texas (holding that ACA survives another challenge for lack of standing) and Fulton v.

Both cases are more than just the headlines suggestion, and are indicative of the Court's current make-up. Law starts at (04:40).
