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.
