Interview Re-Listen: How Adam Feldman Predicted the Trump Tariff Cases Ruling

Dr. Adam Feldman called it before the Court released it. His 25-year dataset — 1,700+ cases — flagged the timing before anyone else caught on. The High Court Report sits down with Dr. Feldman to break down exactly what the numbers revealed.

In this episode:

Why 107 days and six separate opinions directly predict each other — and what that pattern means for the 48 cases still ahead.

How one dataset predicted the Trump Tariff ruling's timing, complexity, and doctrinal fractures before the Court said a word.

Why the Court now pushes more than half its rulings into June — and what Trump's emergency application surge does to that trend.

Whether the Court's faster pace this term marks real change — or a one-year blip.
