Summary
Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to dive deeper into the events surrounding the FBI’s seizure of election-related documents in Fulton County, Georgia, by reviewing the merits of the case, highlighting how it imperils election security, and questioning the involvement of Trump and Tulsi Gabbard. Then, the #Sisters lay out the challenges facing federal prosecutors during the ICE surge in Minnesota and explain how politicizing prosecutions affects justice and internal morale. They also discuss the NDAs being issued at SCOTUS after recurring leaks and what they mean for transparency, trust, and accountability.
