On this week's media roundtable, we’ll discuss the political crisis in the United Kingdom as the county approaches another Brexit deadline. On April 12th, the UK has to come up with a new plan — or leave the EU without a deal.
We’ll also look at coverage of the long-term consequences of Donald Trump’s overwhelmingly white, male conservative judges taking over many levels of the US federal court system.
Guests:
Eric Reguly, European bureau chief for The Globe and Mail
Mark Joseph Stern, legal writer for Slate
