    One way of protecting the country we love is keeping our memories of the events of January 6, 2021, strong and fresh. For too many people, the outrage has slipped away over time. Elected Republicans who took to the floor on January 6 after they were able to return to the Capitol no longer seem to remember the anger, the fear, and the outrage that animated them to protect our country on that day. Following the January 6 attack, Lindsey Graham said, “All I can say is count me out. Enough is enough.” Mitch McConnell said Trump was "practically and morally responsible" for the attack. Today, at least publicly, Republicans have lined up behind Donald Trump, supporting him. January 6 has been effectively memory-holed. It’s the moral equivalent of no longer being outraged by Pearl Harbor or 9/11.

  5. #SistersInLaw podcast referred to the copresidency-apparent of Elon Musk and Donald Trump should just be referred to as “Mump.”

    And I strongly agree.

  6. @tristansnell re: Threats @JillWineBanks said on the #SistersInLaw podcast that #Haitians CAN file civil lawsuits against #Trump & #JDVance for their knowing lies.
    How can we make it happen? Esp for people & organizations- like the hospitals that shut down because of the bomb threats.

    Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman & Shaye Moss sued #RudyGiuliani & they WON. Rudy now owes them $148 million. AND, since he wouldn't cooperate, his assets are being seized to pay them!

  7. I was listening to the latest #SistersInLaw podcast and noted that they sensed overtones of his impending exit in AG Garland's speech a few days ago defending #DOJ and the rule of law. nbcnews.com/politics/justice-d

  9. #SistersInLaw have brought up a very good point, that "salted duck" gifts are a huge tipoff that your state or federal employees are on the take from the Chinese.

  10. I listened to #SistersInLaw podcast 197 where they talked about AI in campaigns. Barb McQuade was the "We need to do something . There is deliberate disinformation. We need to figure out the laws." Kim, the lawyer journalist ,was concerned about the 1st Amendment, knew laws would be passed would be challenged and made better. Jill Wine-Banks was spot on. This is bad, dangerous we need to act now.

  11. Listened to #SistersInLaw podcast, about immunity, on today’s walk. Of course the #MCOTUS (MAGAt court) rulings are bleak. It did make me think! If the Imperial Court wants all Federal Agency decisions to go through them, they’re gonna have a tremendous workload.

    Right there, just thinking of them 😉, I see an excellent reason to expand the court. Relieve some of their workload so #Alito and #Thomas can go fishing and RVing like good ol regular folk.

  12. On the separation of church and state:

    "Our constitution makes it clear under the 1st Amendment that there should be no establishment of any official religion. And yet we see constantly this idea that many members of congress who push this idea that the United States is a 'Christian country.'
    "I am a Christian; I love being a Christian, but I know that that is a personal faith that is separate from anything that exists in Civic life and we have to separate those two things.
    "When people like MTG advocate for Christian Nationalism, that is the same thing I saw as a terrorism prosecutor when ISIS was seeking an Islamic State.
    "It is the same thing they preach against when they use scare tactics talking about 'Sharia Law:' We are a country which respects all religions and no religion and so I think that people are using the fact that we have a majority of Christians in this country to try to use that as political power. That is a lie, that is a fallacy, and as a Christian I am particularly offended when Christianity is used in this way as a banner of repression.
    "And so, as a Christian I see the need to speak out and to say that our faith [should have] nothing to do with our politics."

  14. #SistersInLaw (1992)
    Jacky and Mary are new portraits of female police officers in the 1990s, who are optimistic and active, emotional and witty. Faced with the real criminal world, their belief in justice will never waver and they will do their best in everything.

  15. This is what I picture in my head when I'm listening to the #SistersInLaw podcast with @JillWineBanks @BarbMcQuade @KimberlyEAtkins @JoyceVance

  16. Thanks for posting here @JillWineBanks!
    I hate to go to Xitter. I just listened to the latest #SistersInLaw podcast (without you!)
    They discussed #JudgeMcAfee 's order on Willis & Wade. But they didn't discuss that he delayed the order because he had been receiving threats & waited for proper security for him & his family.

    #BarbMcQuade talks about law enforcement's reluctance to investigate & prosecute threats in her book. How do push for action?

  17. @JillWineBanks I'd be interested to hear an answer to this question on your #SistersInLaw podcast...

  18. @eleeper I've been listening to legal experts on #MSNBC about this. #GlennKirschner has been very clear that #Trump needs to be jailed. Others are now coming around to this view.
    In the #SistersInLaw podcast podbean.com/ea/dir-si3wp-1af7d (6:44 to 11:58)
    #KimberlyAtkinsStohr #JillWineBanks #JoyceVance & #BarbMcQuade talk about jailing Trump.
    They discuss #SecretService protection, the fear of violence from the #MAGA base & how Trump would use being jailed to fundraise. They conclude it's necessary.

  19. #SistersInLaw That's it. That's the toot.
