This week's DPS was a live show. Our guest is Heidi Matthews, assistant professor at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto, Ontario. We addressed the Kavanaugh hearings and assessed the general discussion around the Supreme Court by lefties over the past several weeks.

Heidi's article, "Why the Kavanaugh hearings were a show trial gone bad," can be found here: https://theconversation.com/why-the-kavanaugh-hearings-were-a-show-trial-gone-bad-102025
