226: The Best Kind Of Nerd

Get the brand new ReSIStance T-Shirt at politicon.com/merch
Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the battle to release USAID funds, where the SCOTUS comes down on the issue, and why the separation of powers is essential to maintaining our democracy. Then, the #Sisters expose the reckless partisanship of AG Pam Bondi and Interim D.C. U.S. Attorney Ed Martin in their quest to fill the DOJ with Trump loyalists and facilitate a MAGA takeover of D.C.’s local government. They also investigate the legality of Trump’s EOs targeting D.C. law firms, explain what they mean for the future of those firms, and break down how the president continues to undermine the rule of law.
