Then the #Sisters preview upcoming SCOTUS cases that will decide whether Trump’s J6 actions fall under presidential immunity, and whether a payment after the fact is considered a bribe under public corruption statutes. They also discuss the revival of Arizona’s 1864 abortion ban, the Comstock Act, and if we should fear nationwide restrictions.

The #Sisters examine whether speech attempting to overthrow the election falls under the 1st Amendment, the danger of double jeopardy, and if the Presidential Records Act protects him. Then they compare his political speech with Kathy Griffin’s, and lay out the case for restricting his ability to threaten violence. They also look at Judge Merchan’s strong rejection of Donald’s frivolous motions attempting to delay the Manhattan case, and discuss his upcoming depositions.
