Get tickets for the #SistersInLaw live shows in Denver, Colorado, on 4/23/26, and in Atlanta, Georgia on 5/3/26 at politicon.com/tour

Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to analyze the growing threats to press freedom, focusing on the Pentagon?s restrictions on journalists during the Trump administration and a legal victory by the NYT granting journalists greater access to government officials on 1st Amendment grounds. Then, the #Sisters revisit the Anthropic case, examining the dangers of labeling companies as supply chain risks, the ethics of government AI use, and a preliminary injunction against the Pentagon. They also discuss recent jury verdicts against social media companies in New Mexico and California and their potential to drive corporate change.

258: Indictments For Everyone

Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to revisit the impact of Louisiana v. Callais on the Voting Rights Act, and explore what it means for the ongoing racial disparities in our elections and the future of our civil rights. Then, the #Sisters review John Bolton?s indictment by weighing whether the manner in which he handled national security documents is worthy of prosecution in light of precedent and the prior prosecution of Trump. They also explain why the administration is now targeting Jack Smith, looking at the claims being made against him, and if they constitute a politically motivated attack.

256: Military On The Street

Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to preview the upcoming SCOTUS term and the cases that will define our future, spanning LGBTQ+ rights, campaign finance, and excessive executive power at a time when the justices have a critical impact on law and policy. Then, the #Sisters castigate the Trump administration for making government agencies political by sending ICE into our communities, considering the militarization of our cities, and choosing convenient falsehoods over facts. They also discuss a recent ruling that resoundingly upholds the 1st Amendment for everyone of all backgrounds while in the United States.

Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to lay out the insanity of the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, decry the politics of revenge, and look at whether the claims have any merit. Then, the #Sisters explain what ?AntiFa? refers to, and why the term has become such a flash point in the age of democratic decline and help us understand the historical framework of domestic terrorism under the law. They also look at the allegations against Trump?s border czar, Tom Homan, regarding his acceptance of $50,000 in cash and explain the challenges of holding people in the administration to account.

Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to lay out the legal implications of the growing political violence in the country and call upon leaders in both parties to take a strong stand against it. Then, the #Sisters examine the alarming arrests of Democratic lawmakers and investigate whether their civil rights were violated, weighing what it says about the state of our democracy. They also discuss the ABA?s lawsuit against the Trump administration and explain how it seeks to preserve the independence of the legal system, as well as break down the slew of recent actions by the courts.
