238: Pardons For The Rich & The Famous

Get the brand new ReSIStance T-Shirt & Mini Tote at politicon.com/merch
Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to castigate Trump for the questionable pardons he’s recently issued, lay out how they might represent a quid pro quo, and explain their potential illegality. Then, the #Sisters expose how MAGA is using the “Big Beautiful Bill” to neuter the judicial system, and discuss why the checks and balances that it steamrolls are integral to our system. They also delve into the latest developments in his administration’s attacks on universities, examining the rights involved, the limits of executive power, and what it means for the future of free thought and democracy.
