269: Testimony

Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to relay the #Sisters’ 2026 predictions on everything from SCOTUS ethics to crypto, political engagement, and even fashion trends. Then, they revisit the events of J6 and analyze Jack Smith’s recently released testimony, focusing on the evidence, witness testimonies, and the political attempts to silence him. From there, they dissect the fraud accusations targeting the Somali community in Minnesota and call out the reliance on misinformation and the dangerous precedent of targeting communities rather than individuals. They also discuss Chief Justice Roberts’ end-of-year statement, upcoming cases, and whether the court is still independent.
