In This Episode:

Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to analyze the effectiveness of Trump’s defense strategies in the RICO, classified documents, and election interference cases. The #Sisters examine whether speech attempting to overthrow the election falls under the 1st Amendment, the danger of double jeopardy, and if the Presidential Records Act protects him. Then they compare his political speech with Kathy Griffin’s, and lay out the case for restricting his ability to threaten violence. They also look at Judge Merchan’s strong rejection of Donald’s frivolous motions attempting to delay the Manhattan case, and discuss his upcoming depositions.
