Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the arrest of Luigi Mangione in the murder of the UHC CEO, looking at the attempt to extradite him, the use of surveillance cameras to catch him, and the legal status of ghost guns similar to the one used in the crime.  Then, the #Sisters explain clemency, contextualize its recent use by President Biden, and weigh its pros and cons.  They also share their takes on Harmeet Dhillon’s appointment to the head of the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division, the importance of the FBI Director’s 10-year term, and the Inspector General.Add the #Sisters & your other favorite Politicon podcast hosts on BlueskyCheck out Jill’s New Politicon YouTube Show: Just The FactsCheck out Kim’s New Politicon Podcast: Justice By DesignGet your #SistersInLaw MERCH at politicon.com/merchWEBSITE & TRANSCRIPTEmail: [email protected] or Thread to @sistersInLaw.podcastGet text updates from #SistersInLaw and Politicon. More From The #Sisters:From Joyce on Pardons, Chris Wray, and DOJ's Inspector GeneralFrom Barb on The Art of the Counter-PunchFrom Barb on Why Trump Can’t Just End Birthright CitizenshipFrom Jill on Why Biden Was Right to Pardon His Son HunterFrom Kim on How Clemency Can Help Save Us AllChris Wray’s ResignationThe Tree Moat PhotoPlease Support This Week’s Sponsors:Osea Malibu:Get 10% off your order of clean beauty products from OSEA Malibu when you go to oseamalibu.com and use promo code: SISTERSBlueland:For 15% off your order of green cleaning products, go to blueland.com/sistersThrive Causemetics:For 20% off incredible clean and cause-focused beauty products, go to thrivecausemetics.com/sistersGet Barb’s New Book: Attack From Within: How Disinformation Is Sabotaging AmericaGet More From The #SistersInLawJoyce Vance: Bluesky | Twitter | University of Alabama Law | MSNBC | Civil Discourse SubstackJill Wine-Banks: Bluesky | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Author of The Watergate Girl: My Fight For Truth & Justice Against A Criminal President | Just The Facts YouTubeKimberly Atkins Stohr: Bluesky | Twitter | Boston Globe | WBUR | Unbound Newsletter | Justice By Design PodcastBarb McQuade: Bluesky | Twitter | University of Michigan Law | Just Security | MSNBC
