Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to analyze the legality of DOGE, the capabilities and dangers of the team Elon has brought together, the effectiveness of challenges to it, and what it means for the future of our democracy. Then, the #Sisters discuss the start of Pam Bondi’s tenure as the U.S. Attorney General, why her swearing-in was so controversial and unique, and how Trump’s buy-out offer affects the DOJ. They also explore the ramifications of the recent FBI firings, focusing on their impact on the agency, the rule of law, and whether they can be prevented through civil action.
