How the Roberts Court Changed the Rules for Corporate America

📺 YouTube - 5-13-2026 Wednesday News List ✍️ qwart 🕐 May 14, 2026 at 6:15 AM

The founder of the Public Integrity Project, Brendan Ballou, joins Court Accountability Action’s Lisa Graves to talk about PIP’s efforts to use litigation to fight public corruption. Brendan and Lisa also talk about his new book, WHEN COMPANIES RUN THE COURTS, which is out now, and how the Roberts Court–and John Roberts, in particular, has changed the rules to allow corporations to force more and more Americans into mandatory arbitration rather than getting your day in court when a corporate product or policy hurts an American consumer, and how together we can change that.
