Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to analyze the potential of suits using the 14th Amendment in Colorado and Minnesota to keep Trump off the presidential ballot by looking at what must be proven and the downstream political effects.  Then, they dive into the civil fraud case against Trump by previewing the upcoming testimony by him and Ivanka and exploring the risks he faces on the stand.  From there, they break down the charges and conviction of crypto king Sam Bankman-Fried for the fraud he committed in the creation of a ponzi scheme using his trading exchange FTX.

Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to review the latest legal developments in the prosecutions of members of Trump World. They cover Trump’s latest sanctions, the plea deal of Jenna Ellis in the Rico case, and the role of Mark Meadows– weighing the rationale behind the relatively light plea deals and the differences between cooperation and immunity. Then they break down the gerrymandering case in GA with a look at how demographic changes make it racially based, and the political impact of redrawing congressional maps with elections looming. Following that they lament the tragic shooting in Maine, and explain the yellow flag gun laws there, the necessary requirements for gun removal, and how they differ from red flag laws.

Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to analyze the guilty pleas of Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell in Georgia, why they got off relatively easy, and what their convictions mean for the other defendants. Then, they discuss the DOJ’s class action settlement on behalf of immigrant families separated at the border, with a look at how they’re being compensated and the steps the government must take to make sure it never happens again. From there, they debate the merits of forum shopping that has enabled people to take advantage of the system for better outcomes and empower a single judge to set national policy. But given that it was a lone judge who dismantled Trump’s muslim ban, can it sometimes be a good thing?

Jill WIne-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to delve into the superseding indictment of Senator Menedez. They examine how his role as the chair of the Foreign Relations Committee gives the charges against him national security ramifications, and lay out the political implications if he ends up resigning. Moving on to the next indictment, they break down the charges against Rep. Santos with a look at how his actions defrauded his donors and the election process. From there, they explain the differences between political and racial gerrymandering and how South Carolina’s conflation of the two has taken their recently drawn congressional map to the Supreme Court.
