Again it really helps us out. So Judge Brown, Justice Brown, the one who was nominated and approved by President Joe
0:44
Biden, she's the newest member of the court and Justice Katanji, she gave an interview
0:50
with CBS Evening News on a variety of topics. Now she railed against the immunity decision that the Supreme Court gave to former President
0:58
Donald Trump and that was, you know, one part of the interview
1:03
But then the interviewer was anchor Nora O'Donnell, she asked her, look, this might come before
1:11
the Supreme Court this election. Are you guys prepared to rule on it
1:14
Now her reaction to it surprised even me and I think it makes a lot of people wonder how
1:20
insane is this election really going to be? I want you to listen to what she has to say here and then let me know what you think in
1:26
the comments. Costa, thank you very much. In a broadcast exclusive, we spoke to Supreme Court Justice Katanji Brown Jackson about
1:35
her blistering dissent in that landmark immunity case. She granted CBS News her first TV interview since joining the nation's highest court ahead
1:43
of the publication of her memoir, Lovely One. Here's what she said about what worries her about the decision in Trump versus United States
1:53
In your dissent, you wrote that the court declared for the first time in history that
1:57
the most powerful official in the United States can, under circumstances yet to be fully determined
2:03
become a law unto himself. It sounds like a warning. Well, I mean, that was my view of what the court determined
2:15
You were concerned about broad immunity. I was concerned about a system that appeared to provide immunity for one individual under
2:28
one set of circumstances when we have a criminal justice system that had ordinarily treated
2:34
everyone the same. Are you prepared that this election could end up before the Supreme Court
2:41
As prepared as anyone can be. Let me ask you, are you prepared for all of the news cycles that you're getting as a result
2:50
of this election? No. No, exactly. I mean, I think there are legal issues that arise out of the political process
2:59
And so the Supreme Court has to be prepared to respond if that should be necessary
3:08
And a new legal issue may have just arisen. You can see much more of our interview
