232: Bend The Knee For King Trump

Get the brand new ReSIStance T-Shirt at politicon.com/merch
Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to explain the battle the courts are waging against the Trump administration to defend immigrants' rights, the judicial branch’s essential role in maintaining the rule of law, and why protecting due process in deportation cases is so important. Then, the #Sisters discuss the challenge to birthright citizenship moving through the courts after Trump’s EO banning it, why it is such a critical part of our country’s formation, and how nationwide injunctions can keep the executive in check when it has run amok. They also fire off on MAGA’s war on the freedom of our universities, and look ahead to their fight to stay independent of federal control.
