We sit down with Washington Post deputy editorial page editor Ruth Marcus to discuss her new book, Supreme Ambition: Brett Kavanaugh and the Conservative Takeover. We delve into the nitty gritty of how Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed to the US Supreme Court, and more broadly, what has changed (for better or worse) in Washington since Ruth first joined the Post in 1986.
