Summary

Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to explain the president’s pardon power, debate President Biden’s pardon of Hunter, and look at how pardons have been used in the past and how they can be used in the future.  Then, the #Sisters outline the DOJ investigation into Tyre Nichols’ death at the hands of the Memphis PD, explain the importance of the DOJ Civil Rights Division, and investigate the future of law enforcement oversight under Trump.  They also review the SCOTUS arguments weighing TN’s ban on gender-affirming care for young people and explore what the case means for critical medical services.
