Welcome back to Hashtag Sisters-in-law. I'm Jill Wine Banks. This week we'll be taking

0:17.1

an in-depth look at the latest developments in investigation of the January 6th

0:21.7

insurrection. We'll talk about DOJ's decisions to allow federal employees to

0:26.8

testify and to not represent Mo Brooks in Swaowell's lawsuit. And what that means for

0:33.4

former President Trump. The testimony, the House Committee heard this week from the police

1:57.3

by having the audacity to wear shorts to compete. And they were told that they were in violation

2:03.4

of the rule that says you have to, and they have great detailed description about what the

2:08.1

bikini bottom needs to look like. Same is true with the women who play Beach volleyball
