Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to usher in Labor Day with a discussion of Trump’s attack on Federal Reserve Board member Lisa Cook, her lawsuit against him, and whether either of them has a case. Then, they break down the assault on the CDC and the healthcare system under RFK Jr.’s tenure, and look ahead to what it means for the future of our national health. They also use the recent sandwich-throwing incident to explore the use cases of jury nullification, and lay out our rights to free expression in the face of the president’s E.O. targeting flag burning.

Then, the #Sisters explain the court decision on the Impoundment Control Act and break down what it means for presidential power and congressional authority. They also discuss the lawsuit filed by the District of Columbia to stop Trump’s takeover of its police force and whether it represents a violation of the separation of powers and the limits on the president’s constitutional authority.

Then, the #Sisters chastise A.G. Bondi for summoning a grand jury to target Trump’s political opponents, and weigh whether she has lived up to the precedent and responsibilities of her office. They also explain the legal issues that could shut down ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ by looking at the potential civil rights and environmental violations taking place there.

Then, the #Sisters dive deeper into the danger ethical judges face in the current political climate, and emphasize why their independence is so important. They also further explore the latest developments in the Epstein and Maxwell saga, with a focus on the comments President Trump recently made about his former employee Virginia Giuffre.

on the one hand, your show highlights the erosion of human and constitutional rights in the United States. on the other hand, your advertisements indicate that this is all normal so go out and buy some clothes. which is it?
Seems like the Comey indictment may open the door to most Trump Cabinet secretaries being indicated for also lying to Congress...during their pre-appointment hearings. When the tide turns, that is.
re: flag dedication, what if you have doggie poop bags with the American flag printed on it? Is picking up poop illegal?
The one thing I wish Newsome would stop doing is using the term the "Rule of Don",
It's getting harder to find this podcast. I use Comcast and have tagged it as a favorite. FYI
I can't believe that I heard a genteel southern lady use the term "screwed the pooch." I am shocked, I tell you, shocked! 😉
Hi ladies absolutely love what you're doing. One comment today Yes, it's important that Chief Justice Roberts commented on Trump's ridiculous claim about judges. The problem is people are not paying attention. there was no schoolhouse Rock lessons in schools during the last decade or two. It was not being taught! I can't tell you how distressed I am at the lack of knowledge of the general public in America. Huge problem 😥
Suggestion: ReSisters t-shirts would be great!
There is some heavy background noise - feedback? - I don't know. High-pitched and distracting, but this episode sounds too good to not put up with it. Thanks for your hard work.
Excellent, if sobering episode!
Barb, did your husband call your phone?
@22:45: That's not where the term "black swan" comes from. It derives from a Latin phrase for an event so rare as to be potentially nonexistent. It wasn't a historical event based on bumbling scientists. The last thing we need is more ignorant podcast hosts spreading lies to undercut trust in trustworthy institutions... but here you gals are, week after week, over-confidently making ignorant claims--especially Joyce and Kim.
@19:52: This was another flippant response. The listener's question about a pardon is not obviated by the fact that a trial could not start before the election. The glib answer overlooks the concern about a potential blanket pardon--as Ford issued for Nixon--that would immunize Trump from prosecution, not merely overturn a verdict.
Joyce's answer about a death b/t election and certification omitted legal citations. Her answer seems both specious and nonsensical. I'll need to look into it more, but procedurally, it seems the secretaries of state for each state would still certify the results of the election, independent of the health of the candidates. After all, we rather stupidly still merely elect *electors* for candidates, not candidates per se. The whole Electoral College system is inconsistent and incoherent.
@15:54: Ugh, Kim never knows what she's talking about. If she can't recall the details, at least don't state them incorrectly. The situation she incorrectly described was prominently at mid-field after the game.
@5:07: "It's no coincidence" that two things coincided? Really?
@56:45: The hosts often hold forth authoritatively despite drastic ignorance. Here, they completely misrepresented the entire issue of a potentially retroactive decision about the illegality of bumpstocks. The reasonable concern would be that someone legally purchased a bumpstock, but then, based on administrative or judicial interpretation, would now be in possession of an item that would require a separate, possessor-specific tax stamp or FFL. Ladies, if you care, learn; otherwise, keep quiet.
Kim often seems to misunderstand others' arguments. She said she disagreed with Jill about Barb's "rule of law" comment in relation to clemecy, but then proceeded to both agree with Jill and disagree with herself about what "respecting the rule of law" would mean in this case. Her arguments often seem fumbled and unclear to me.
Dear Sisters, I take issue with one of the statements about racism/sexism. I am white. I am also 81 years old. For nearly all of those years I have seen racism, including by members of my own family. When I was a little kid, I felt some sexism in my own family. Sexism against me, as a female. It is true that the racism was more overt and the sexism was more subtle. Thanks for reading this. Madeline Holland
EVERY SINGLE THING THAT COMES FROM THE SUPREMELY CORRUPT COURT, EVEN WHEN IT SEEMS TO BE A LOWER LEVEL OF DISGUSTING, IS SELF SERVING IN SOME WAY!! (progressive judges excepted from this comment)
