Lawyer and longtime Supreme Court analyst Jeffrey Toobin wrote that Justice Antonin Scalia “devoted his professional life to making the United States a less fair, less tolerant, and less admirable democracy. Fortunately, he mostly failed.” Forum talks with Toobin about the Supreme Court without Scalia and the politics of naming his replacement. We’ll also discuss Toobin’s 1997 book about the O.J. Simpson trial, which is the basis of a series currently airing on FX.

Guests:

Jeffrey Toobin, staff writer, The New Yorker; legal analyst, CNN; author of "The Oath: The Obama White House and The Supreme Court"
