Show notes

Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to reflect on Trump’s mugshot and discuss the attempts by his co-conspirators to gain an advantage in their trials by attempting to speed up the process and to remove their Georgia cases to federal court. Then they cover possible conflicts of interest in the Mar-A-Lago case when a lawyer is shared by defendants, and how a Garcia Hearing can shield the judge and prosecutors from claims by the defendants. They also break down the fresh lawsuit filed by the DOJ against Elon’s SpaceX for hiring discrimination against the protected class of asylees and refugees. Is Musk personally liable?
