Jill Wine-Banks hosts the #SistersInLaw for a conversation about the many cases growing around Trump and the increasing likelihood he will face justice for J6 and other crimes.  During it, they also discuss the Republicans' lawfare based attacks on DEI and affirmative action practices with an explanation of when race based considerations are viable and better for our society.  They also cover E. Jean Carroll’s and Stormy Daniels’ further cases against Donald, and the issues that play a role in their quest to hold him accountable.

Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw live in Boston to review the charges in Manhattan that resulted in 34 guilty verdicts against Trump, untangle the five crimes jurors could use to justify their vote, and explain the appeals and sentencing process. Then, the #Sisters expose the flaws in SCOTUS oversight and ethics by laying out the breaches of Justices Alito, Thomas, and their wives, exploring the potential of putting the court on the ballot, term limits, and congressional oversight to restore faith in the institution.  They also discuss Judge Cannon’s denial of Jack Smith’s gag order and her delaying actions in the MAL case before taking questions on everything from election certification to women’s rights after Dobbs.

185: Live In Boston: Verdict Day

Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the threat to voting rights posed by the SCOTUS opinions in a South Carolina gerrymandering case and how Justice Alito’s actions have undermined the credibility of the court’s ethics code.  Then, the #Sisters lay out the end game in Trump’s Manhattan trial, review the guidelines for executing a search warrant, untangle Judge Cannon’s latest delays, and consider Fani Willis’ appeal of dismissed charges in the Fulton County case.  They also explain the DOJ antitrust suit targeting Live Nation’s Ticketmaster monopoly and what a loss would mean for the company.

184: That’s Not How A Waiver Works.  You Don’t Wave It

Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the believability of Michael Cohen’s testimony against Trump, weigh its effectiveness for the prosecution, and lay out the next steps of the trial.  Then, the #Sisters explore the ethical ramifications of Justice Alito flying a flag in support of J6 in front of his home, lay out the case for his recusal in the upcoming presidential immunity trial, and call out the Republican lawmakers defending Trump at the Manhattan courthouse.  They also review the SCOTUS’ decision to issue a stay in a Louisiana gerrymandering case, delineate racial and political gerrymandering, and explain how the Purcell principle applies.

Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw live in Detroit to discuss the effectiveness of Stormy Daniels’ testimony, what to expect when Michael Cohen takes the stand, and how the prosecution’s narrative is coming together in the election interference trial.  Then, the #Sisters explain what’s behind the delays in Trump’s Florida and Georgia cases and if anything can be done to speed things up.  They also look at the constitutional and national security issues raised in TikTok’s suit to prevent its forced sale before taking questions on everything from Supreme Court reform to the failure to charge Trump with insurrection.

182: Live From Detroit

Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw live in Chicago to share their takeaways from Trump’s election interference trial and review its evidence, witness testimonies, and potential verdicts.  Then the #Sisters discuss Trump’s repeated violations of his gag order, the consequences so far, and whether his continued contempt of the court violates the conditions of his pretrial release. They also cover the revival of the Comstock Act and other threats to abortion rights after Dobbs, explore the legal patchwork of state restrictions, and take questions on everything from presidential immunity to SCOTUS ethics.
