Welcome back to hashtag sisters-in-law with Joyce Vance, Jill Wine Banks, and me, Barb McQuaid.

Kimberly Atkins store is away this week, but we look forward to her return

next week. Don't forget to check out our merch store. We restocked everything in time for the

holidays. Just go to politicon.com slash merch. Now let's get on to the show, where this week we'll be

discussing the nomination of Pam Bondi as Attorney General, the new guardrails that give us some hope from the states, and the status of the Donald Trump criminal cases in the states.

But first, before we get rolling, sisters, I wanted to ask you about Thanksgiving.

You know, I'm finally kind of peeling myself up off the floor after the

election and I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving, spending some time with family and sustaining

myself and getting away a little bit. How about you? What are your plans for Thanksgiving? Joyce,

let me ask you. Yes, so we're really excited because we'll have all four of our kids home for a very,

very brief period of time. So that'll be a lot of fun. And I'm going to actually cook just a

separate Thanksgiving just for us because we do a much larger Thanksgiving that one of our

friends hosts. And it's sort of big and spread out and a great opportunity

to catch up with people. So we're hoping to have the best of both worlds this year.

Oh, that sounds nice. How about you, Jill? What are your Thanksgiving plans?

I am going to a friend's home, someone I've been very dear friends with for a long time,

part of my Quince group, which I

know I've mentioned before, the group that I talk politics with every week by Zoom, it started

during COVID to keep us sane and has continued even now. And she does all the work. I'm going to

bring a jello mold because that is my family's tradition, is jello molds. And I'm going to bring a jello mold because that is my family's tradition is jello molds.

And I'm going to bring at least one, maybe two different jello molds.

And it's so wonderful to have friends that are as good as family.
