0:02.0	Lemonada This is Sarah Stewart Holland. This is Beth Silvers. You're listening to Pantsuit Politics. Today, we're going to spend a few minutes following up on Friday's discussion about medical assistance in dying. We're going to turn our attention to how badly things are going to the executive branch right now. And specifically to the Trump administration's approach to
0:54.9	removing non-citizens from the country today, we are going to discuss, are we in a constitutional
1:00.6	crisis or not? And if so, what does that mean? And where do we go from here? Outside of politics,
1:06.9	because I chose badly for the exhale of the episode.
1:15.8	We're just getting into more heat by talking about baby monitors.

2:53.2	And we used to do this a lot.
2:54.6	We used to spend a lot of the episodes talking about audience reactions.
