Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to explain how the courts are using Sections 203 and 208 of the Voting Rights Act to shut down Republican attempts to disenfranchise voters who need absentee ballots. Then, the #Sisters discuss Alvin Bragg’s response to Trump’s attempt to use the SCOTUS immunity decision to overturn his convictions, review why he should fail based on procedural default, and look ahead to when we can expect him to be sentenced. They also expose Trump’s support of Project 2025 and how a philosophy of Christian Nationalism lies behind its stated goals.
