Argentina’s far-right president-elect & the US Supreme Court

United States Supreme Court
United States Supreme Court

On this edition of Your Call’s Media Roundtable, we discuss Argentina’s far-right president-elect Javier Milei. He denies climate change, opposes abortion, plans to slash government spending and dollarize the economy, and eliminate the Central Bank and key ministries.

Then we'll get the latest on major Supreme Court cases. Next month, the court will hear a case that could reshape the US tax code, including banning future wealth tax proposals.

Guests:

Valen Iricibar, award-winning journalist and editor at the Buenos Aires Herald

Chris Geidner, award winning legal journalist and author and publisher of Law Dork
