#SistersInLaw

Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss Trump’s war on media organizations following the stripping of credentials to respected organizations, how his actions butt up against the 1st Amendment, and the judicial response.  Then, the #Sisters examine the U.S. immigration policy of 3rd country removals, the legal challenges to it, and the ongoing human rights concerns.  They also review the legality of Trump API, whether it constitutes insider trading, and the ethical concerns it raises.
Remember to send in audio questions to SistersInLaw@politicon.com for the #Sisters to answer on their new companion podcast, SistersInLaw Sidebar!  It airs Wednesdays wherever you normally get your podcasts!

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.
