About this listen

The Supreme Court has become the focal point of the legal battle over President Donald Trump's executive authority – and presidential power more broadly.

Few reporters are as prepared as NPR's Nina Totenberg to report on this unique moment.

Over the last fifty years, Totenberg established herself as the preeminent Supreme Court reporter in America. She's broken countless stories – including allegations of sexual harassment by Clarence Thomas during the justice's 1991 confirmation hearings.

For this week's Reporter's Notebook host Scott Detrow speaks with Totenberg about this crucial moment in the court's history and consequential cases she has covered over the years.
