290: All Roads Lead To The Pentagon

290: All Roads Lead To The Pentagon

Get tickets for the #SistersInLaw live shows in Denver, Colorado, on 4/23/26, and in Atlanta, Georgia on 5/3/26 at politicon.com/tour

Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to analyze the growing threats to press freedom, focusing on the Pentagon’s restrictions on journalists during the Trump administration and a legal victory by the NYT granting journalists greater access to government officials on 1st Amendment grounds. Then, the #Sisters revisit the Anthropic case, examining the dangers of labeling companies as supply chain risks, the ethics of government AI use, and a preliminary injunction against the Pentagon. They also discuss recent jury verdicts against social media companies in New Mexico and California and their potential to drive corporate change.

Remember to send in audio questions to SistersInLaw@politicon.com for the #Sisters to answer on their new companion podcast, SistersInLaw Sidebar! It airs Wednesdays wherever you normally get your podcasts!
