Warren Court

Description

Toby unleashes 'Warren Court' as an ultra-activist specter, lambasting its rulings that demolished laws demanding disclosure of NAACP memberships and funding—precedents shielding civil rights groups from exposure Toby now craves for post-assassination hate-group takedowns. Sam seizes these ghosts to counter Toby's gambit, igniting First Amendment clashes that fracture White House midterm strategy and expose raw divides between historical liberties and modern threat imperatives.
