159: Still On The Ledge

Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to memorialize Justice Sandra Day O’Connor and discuss this week’s legal news. First, they look at the latest developments in Trump’s cases including the rejection of his trial dismissal attempt, his renewed gag order, and a court ruling that he is civilly liable for the events of January 6th. Then, they cover the ruling to stop private action under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and debate how the Supreme Court would weigh in, before pivoting to a SEC case heard by SCOTUS that could weaken the administrative state by remanding SEC judgements to federal juries.
