183: Sometimes A Girl Needs A Nap

Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the believability of Michael Cohen’s testimony against Trump, weigh its effectiveness for the prosecution, and lay out the next steps of the trial.  Then, the #Sisters explore the ethical ramifications of Justice Alito flying a flag in support of J6 in front of his home, lay out the case for his recusal in the upcoming presidential immunity trial, and call out the Republican lawmakers defending Trump at the Manhattan courthouse.  They also review the SCOTUS’ decision to issue a stay in a Louisiana gerrymandering case, delineate racial and political gerrymandering, and explain how the Purcell principle applies.#SistersInlaw LIVE:Get tickets now - politicon.com/tourMay 30 - Boston - Shubert Theatrepoliticon.com/tourGet your #SistersInLaw merchandise at politicon.com/merchWEBSITE & TRANSCRIPTEmail: [email protected] or Thread to @sistersInLaw.podcastGet text updates from #SistersInLaw and Politicon. Please Support This Week’s Sponsors:HelloFresh:Get farm-fresh, pre-portioned ingredients and seasonal recipes from HelloFresh with a free dessert item per box for life with code: SISTERSSWEET at hellofresh.com/sisterssweetOneSkin:Get 15% off OneSkin with the code: SISTERS at https://www.oneskin.co/ #oneskinpodLolaVie:Get 15% off LolaVie with the code: SIL at https://www.lolavie.com/SIL #lolaviepodMentioned By The #Sisters:From Joyce on the effectiveness of Michael Cohen’s witness testimonyFrom Joyce on Justice Alito’s display of a ‘stop the steal’ symbolGet Barb’s New Book: Attack From Within: How Disinformation Is Sabotaging AmericaBarb’s Book Tour Get More From #SistersInLawJoyce Vance: Twitter | University of Alabama Law | MSNBC | Civil Discourse SubstackJill Wine-Banks: Twitter | Facebook | Website | Author of The Watergate Girl: My Fight For Truth & Justice Against A Criminal PresidentKimberly Atkins Stohr: Twitter | Boston Globe | WBUR | Unbound NewsletterBarb McQuade: Twitter | University of Michigan Law | Just Security | MSNBC
