275: Watching The Watchers

275: Watching The Watchers

In this episode of Sisters Sidebar, Joyce Vance and Jill Wine-Banks debut the first round of audio questions and cover pressing legal issues raised by listeners. They discuss the surveillance of protestors by federal agents, the effect of sanctuary policies, and the dangers of normalization amid rising authoritarianism. Then, they call for increased congressional oversight of Trump and the executive branch, and look at potential ways to reform the DOJ in order to strengthen democracy and the rule of law.
