  • 288: Taking Liberties

    Get tickets for the #SistersInLaw Live Show in Denver, Colorado, on 4/23/26 at politicon.com/tour 

    Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the murder charges filed against Alexia Moore in Georgia after she had to go to the hospital following complications from taking Mifepristone to have an abortion, and the wider context of the war on women’s rights.  Then, the #Sisters lay out the increasingly illegitimate actions of the DOJ, centering on the attempt to investigate the Federal Reserve, the case of a possible intelligence leak by NCTC head Joe Kent, and the subpoena of James Comey.  They also examine the recent convictions of protestors labeled as domestic terrorists as members of “antifa”, and the impact it has on our civil rights and the ability to exercise our liberties.

    Remember to send in audio questions to [email protected] for the #Sisters to answer on their new companion podcast SistersInLaw Sidebar!  It airs Wednesdays wherever you normally get your podcasts!

    In this episode of #SistersInLaw Sidebar, Joyce Vance and Barb McQuade answer your questions on everything from Trump’s attempt to appeal the civil judgment in favor of E. Jean Carroll to the benefits of having a J.D.  Together, they discuss why the SCOTUS is likely to support E. Jean, whether sentencing can be appealed, the inability of states to prosecute federal crimes, and the failure of the government to account for important Epstein-related documents.  They also detail the multitude of benefits of acquiring a law degree even if you don’t practice, and explain the difference between deportation and denaturalization.
