#SistersInLaw

Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to dive deeper into the events surrounding the FBI’s seizure of election-related documents in Fulton County, Georgia, by reviewing the merits of the case, highlighting how it imperils election security, and questioning the involvement of Trump and Tulsi Gabbard.  Then, the #Sisters lay out the challenges facing federal prosecutors during the ICE surge in Minnesota and explain how politicizing prosecutions affects justice and internal morale.  They also discuss the NDAs being issued at SCOTUS after recurring leaks and what they mean for transparency, trust, and accountability.

Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to review the FBI search warrant executed at the Fulton County Elections Operations Center in Georgia, the implications for election integrity, odd things about the case, and how it relates to MAGA conspiracy theories surrounding the integrity of the 2020 election.  Then, the #Sisters discuss the civil rights investigation of the Pretti shooting taking place in Minnesota, other recent legal developments concerning ICE, and chilling instances of journalists being targeted in spite of press freedom.  They also review a lawsuit against the government by the families of men killed in the recent Venezuelan boat strikes and explain the relevance of the Death on the High Seas Act and the Alien Tort Statute.

Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to put the spotlight on a memo telling ICE agents that they can enter homes without a warrant, explain whether these actions are prohibited by the 4th Amendment, and weigh the legality of the DOJ’s attempt to wield the FACE and KKK Acts against protestors. Then, the #Sisters lay out Trump’s latest attempt to undermine the independence of the Federal Reserve by trying to fire Lisa Cook, and review the Supreme Court’s response.  They also discuss the DOJ’s disclosure that DOGE has potentially been misusing confidential information and how it contributes to the overall undermining of our rights.
