Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to explain the national security and good governance implications of the SignalGate leak of the Trump Administration's Yemen attack plans, hold his teams to account, and explain why the correct handling of classified information is essential to the safety of our warfighters. Then, the #Sisters review the attempt by Speaker Johnson to limit the influence of federal judges, Trump’s war on law firms, and his pushback against injunctions checking his authoritarian impulses. They also discuss the recent SCOTUS backing of a ban on ghost guns, despite the court’s growing antipathy toward federal agency power.
