Welcome back to hashtag sisters-in-law with Jill Wine Banks, Kimberly Atkins Store, and me, Barb McQuaid.

Joyce is away, but she'll be back next week, and we look forward to her return.

I also want to mention that the Resistance, minotote, and t-shirt are selling out fast, so get yours now.

This week will be discussing Pam Bondi's complaint against Judge Bozberg in Washington, D.C., threats against judges, and the latest in the

saga of the Epstein files. Before we get to that, though, I wanted to talk with my sisters about

your view of the beach. Joyce is at the beach this way. She shared that on her substack, so I

feel comfortable sharing it. She's calling it Beach Book Week,

where she's got a stack of books that she's going to read and she's going to hang out at the

beach. Are you, would you consider yourselves beach lovers? What are your thoughts on beaches?

Well, I am currently in one of my happiest places on Earth, which is Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts,

on the vineyard. I was here is Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts, on the Vineyard.

I was here for an event for Boston University alumna, which they have a BU week here on the

vineyard every year. And I spoke at a panel there, but, you know, they did not have to twist my

arm because I absolutely, A, love the beach, love water, love the beach, try to get there as much as possible.

And B, I particularly love the beaches here on Martha's Vineyard because it's beautiful.

And here in Oak Bluffs, there is a longstanding deep black community here. It was one of the first

places in America where black people were able to vacation and buy homes and properties

to spend on the beach. And there is a lot of history there. But even to this day, it's just a very diverse but laid back and cool community that always makes me feel at home the minute that I land.

So I am thrilled to be here.

And yes, Barb, I love the being.

Nice.
