Boom! Lawyered

Getting Through Trump’s First Week—Mostly


Listen Later

We’re on week one of Donald Trump’s second administration, and we’re already tired. On his first day in office, Trump signed executive orders attempting to end birthright citizenship and declaring that the United States only recognizes two genders, male and female.

On today’s episode of Boom! Lawyered, Jess and Imani talk through Trump’s flurry of early executive orders. They also go down a few rabbit holes on embryo research and cowrie shells—because yes, they watched the inauguration so you didn’t have to.
