b'Two recent major podcast themes - section 3 of the fourteenth amendment, and judicial ethics - echoed through the news this past week.\\xa0 Wisconsin legislators seek to impeach a new state Supreme Court Justice before she even sits for a case; and in Washington, Justice Alito is asked to recuse himself because of an interview he gave.
