- 1 hour 30 minutes346: Weaponized: Abortion Pills, ICE Raids and the Cassidy Hutchinson Investigation
Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the ongoing impact of the Dobbs decision on abortion laws across the country, particularly regarding access to Mifepristone, legal challenges to Dobbs and abortion laws, and the struggle to restore our rights. Then, the #Sisters examine the violations of Posse Comitatus created by Trump’s immigration enforcement, why preventing the militarization of law enforcement is critical to democracy, and the deplorable conditions in ICE detention facilities. They also revisit Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony, the Trump administration's pushback, and the difficulty of indicting J6 participants.

Jill Wine-Banks and Barb McQuade answer listener questions on everything from whether the Eighth Amendment covers immigration detention to foreign election interference, and more. They explain why the Supreme Court treats the ban on cruel and unusual punishment as applying only after criminal conviction, how international legal conferences and ABA programs let countries compare systems, why a crime victim’s civil suit can start alongside a prosecution but is usually stayed so the criminal case comes first, how a Democratic Congress could use the power of the purse and subpoenas against MAGA officials, the difference between real foreign social-media influence operations and unsupported claims of election hacking, presidential succession, and why a president and Senate cannot demote the Chief Justice.

Then, the #Sisters review the legality of the Trump administration's third-country removal of immigrants, the SCOTUS decision allowing it to continue, and how international law applies. They also examine the docket on the upcoming SCOTUS term, including cases involving gun control, environmental protections, election law, and more.

Jill Wine-Banks and Barb McQuade answer listener questions on everything from gift-tax rules for large White House staff gifts to whether a Speaker could refuse to swear in newly elected members, and more. They discuss the annual $19,000 exclusion versus the lifetime exemption and who actually pays the gift tax, the political-question doctrine and why a Mike Johnson logjam is theoretically possible but politically extreme, how to contact our representatives, the need to restore civics plus critical-thinking skills, practical fixes for a crashed bar-exam app plus their own exam stories, and how to beat a traffic ticket.

They discuss why the judge followed Rule 48 and the separation of powers even while criticizing the DOJ, how Citizens United can only be undone by a new Court majority or a constitutional amendment and why Democrats should campaign on that idea, Delta’s maps still showing Lake Ontario, why a future Democratic White House and Congress would not instantly flip Supreme Court outcomes, why lying to voters is not a crime, and the unsettled privacy questions around ambient recording by phones, watches, and TVs.
