Episode 6: Justice, Immigrants, and Algorithms

A new public defender office, a Supreme Court fight over immigration protections, and a landmark social media trial all raise the same question: how does the legal system adapt when the stakes are this high?

In this episode of Wahl on Law, Jonas breaks down the creation of a new Supreme Court advocacy office for public defenders, the Trump administration’s request for the Supreme Court to allow the termination of Haitian Temporary Protected Status, and an ongoing lawsuit against Instagram and YouTube alleging that their platforms contributed to harming youth’s mental health. Together, these stories highlight how courts, technology companies, and government institutions are shaping the future of law in the United States.
