    340: Demolition Man

    Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the SCOTUS ruling shutting down Trump’s executive order limiting mail-in voting, what it means for the upcoming midterm elections, who dissented and why, and what it means for future challenges to voting rights.  Then, the #Sisters highlight legal concerns over Trump’s ongoing attempt to take control of the Kennedy Center, explain Congress's role, and explore public reactions.  They also update listeners on the current status of the Epstein Transparency Act, Judge Sullivan’s orders seeking DOJ compliance, and the contempt of Congress case against Epstein associate Leon Black.

    Joyce Vance and Barb McQuade answer listener questions on everything from Trump’s White House ballroom to the insanity defense, and more. They discuss the Supreme Court’s halt of construction without deciding its legality, Congress’s unused power of the purse, limits of presidential immunity and the political risks of impeachment, why private carriers cannot replace the Postal Service for ballots, why Congress and voters are the key to restoring the rule of law, Trump’s technical eligibility to serve as Speaker after leaving office, whether polygraphs are effective, and the two-part test for not guilty by reason of insanity.

    338: Follow The Money

    Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss Trump’s unusual payments to his staff and his promise of $5,000 to voters if they vote for Republicans during the midterm elections. Then, the #Sisters dissect the gerrymandering battle in Missouri, looking at how the SCOTUS ruling impacts the state, the grassroots movements demanding representation, and the challenges posed by election deniers holding key positions in state government.  They also explain the legal issues surrounding Trump’s continued attempts to end mail-in voting, and the effect of the limited injunction stopping the administration’s plans.

    Barb McQuaid and Jill Wine-Banks answer listener questions on everything from ICE accountability to vacated convictions, and more. They discuss why courts cannot independently prosecute federal agents who overstep the law, immunity barriers in civil suits, where to find pro bono immigration help, how probate works when there is no will, the green card process in marriages, the legal line between credentialed election monitors and intimidation, and how vacating a conviction differs from a pardon or expungement in clearing the public record without automatically restoring all rights.

    Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the recent legal battles over Trump’s attempts to interfere with mail-in voting and the potential legal consequences for presidential election meddling.  Then, the #Sisters review the legal issues surrounding another shooting of a civilian by ICE in Minnesota, Governor Abbott’s extradition attempts, and the federal charges filed against the agent.  They also explore the mistrial in the trial of Lindsay Clancy, looking at the mental health issues involved, what happens when there is a hung jury, and the nuances in determining criminal responsibility.

They discuss why lying to the public is not a crime and how impeachment or elections are the remedies, why U.S. attorneys carry malpractice insurance and when they can be sued, possible Democratic House investigations into Trump family finances if Democrats regain the majority, courts’ use of pre-Constitution English common law and historical practice as evidence of meaning, the McFall organ-donation ruling and what it means for pregnancy, and why an OLC claim that executive privilege can cover private advisors would face judicial skepticism.

    Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the State Department’s war on immigrants, the revocation of B1 and B2 visas, how it affects asylum seekers, and the legal basis for extradition after being targeted by ICE.  Then, the #Sisters review the legal basis for Trump’s proposed inscription of his name on the Kennedy Center, the issues it raises, and the political motivations involved.  They also explain the legal back-and-forth over Trump’s Executive Order 14399 on mail-in voting, why a judge blocked it, where it sits on the SCOTUS shadow docket, and what it might mean for the midterm elections.

They discuss how discrimination claimants can proceed given the current state of the EEOC, the lack of a federal duty to disclose a member of Congress’s death, the distinction between prosecutorial discretion and selective prosecution, how the shadow docket differs from the full merits process, whether a newly convened special grand jury in D.C. might target Anthony Fauci or Jack Smith, and the historical roots of the filibuster rule as an obstructive tool rather than a way to force consensus.

Then, the #Sisters explore the effects of social media on our youth in light of the ongoing META trial.  They also examine the role of election monitors and the potentially nefarious voter intimidation that might result from the DOJ’s decision to send 1,000 of them to polling places ahead of the midterm elections.

They discuss whether Dr. Anthony Fauci can be held in contempt after pleading the Fifth, the limits on investigating or indicting after a preemptive pardon, the ability to pursue civil suits to recover funds from corruption or fraud after criminal charges were pardoned, the relative harm of Todd Blanche and Bill Barr, whether Democratic campaigning on Supreme Court reforms caninfluence emergency rulings on mail-in voting, and the consent requirements for appointing a new vice president.

    330: Everything Is Illegal

    Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the recent developments in the fraud case against the SPLC by doing a deep dive into the background of the organization, explaining the charges against it, and highlighting the political motivations for the charges.  Then, the #Sisters expose the issues with Trump’s relase of Truth API, explore possible 1st Amendment challenges, and the ethical dillemas involved.  They also review the DOJ’s dismissal of its case against Harvard University regarding allegations of anti-semitism, the applicable legal framework, and the political machinations involved.

    Remember to send in audio questions to [email protected] for the #Sisters to answer on their new companion podcast, SistersInLaw Sidebar!  It airs Wednesdays wherever you normally get your podcasts!
