Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to call out the Trump administration for its use of the Alien Enemy Act to deport supposed gang members, explain its similarities to other efforts to dehumanize minorities and review the questionable reasoning and due process behind the removals.  Then, the #Sisters expose MAGA’s war on the judges standing up for the Constitution, discuss how the judicial branch acts as a check on the executive, and determine if their attempts at impeachment are valid.  They also tear into the DOD’s effort to remove BIPOC from its history and emphasize the importance of diversity to our civic health and national security.

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 😥
