Summary

Get tickets for the #SistersInLaw Live Show in Denver, Colorado, on 4/23/26 at politicon.com/tour

Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the murder charges filed against Alexia Moore in Georgia after she had to go to the hospital following complications from taking Mifepristone to have an abortion, and the wider context of the war on women’s rights. Then, the #Sisters lay out the increasingly illegitimate actions of the DOJ, centering on the attempt to investigate the Federal Reserve, the case of a possible intelligence leak by NCTC head Joe Kent, and the subpoena of James Comey. They also examine the recent convictions of protestors labeled as domestic terrorists as members of “antifa”, and the impact it has on our civil rights and the ability to exercise our liberties.

1:53.3	but my household is one of the St. Louis University Billikins. My husband is an alum. He went to both St. Louis High
2:04.2	and St. Louis University. I know when you're from St. Louis, you got to tell people where you went to
