Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to break down the historical context of deploying the National Guard, the potential for judicial review to restrain the administration, how the 1st and 10th Amendments apply to their use on our streets, and what it means when these decisions become federalized. Then, the #Sisters castigate Trump’s harvesting of $230 million of our money, how the Federal Tort Claims Act applies, and the ethical considerations involved.  They also explain the NBA sports betting scandal, looking at how it impacts the integrity of professional sports, and the role of a recent SCOTUS decision on gambling, seeking to prevent corruption.
