The Supreme Court has cleared the way for President Trump to
remake American government, siding with the president again and
again. But many of those rulings have lacked something
fundamental: an explanation for why the most important judges in
the country came to their decision.

Adam Liptak, who covers the Supreme Court for The Times, explains
the justices’ increased use of the so-called shadow docket, and
why it has sown confusion — and in some cases frustration — in
courts around the country.

Guest: Adam Liptak covers the Supreme Court and
writes Sidebar, a column on legal developments, for The New York
Times.

Background reading:

The Supreme Court keeps ruling in Mr. Trump’s favor, but
doesn’t say why.
