In this episode of Badlands Book Club, Ashe in America and CannCon dive into Chapter 1 of Overruled, co-authored by Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch and Janie Nitze. The duo breaks down the chapter’s exploration of the administrative state and the erosion of individual liberties through unchecked government power. With their signature blend of curiosity, clarity, and constitutional reverence, Ashe and CannCon examine the real-world implications of bureaucratic overreach, particularly how unelected agencies shape policy far beyond their intended scope.
From Chevron deference to personal anecdotes that illuminate broader legal principles, this chapter sets the stage for a compelling look at the tension between liberty and regulation. Whether you're a legal novice or a seasoned constitutionalist, this conversation peels back the curtain on how modern governance increasingly sidelines the legislative and judicial branches.
Smart, digestible, and deeply relevant, this episode is a must-listen for anyone concerned with the future of freedom in America.
