68: Working from home or living at work

In this episode, the #SistersInLaw welcome back Kimberly Atkins Stohr for an examination of how the DOJ bridges policies between administrations as different as Trump’s and Biden’s.  After a detour into last names and the law, they discuss some of the cases being used to test how conservative the Supreme Court is willing to go.  Then they talk about obstruction in court cases and how it applies to Rep. Gaetz.   Kim’s Boston Globe article  https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/06/03/opinion/taking-my-husbands-name-is-feminist-act/?outputType=amp&__twitter_impression=true Joyce’s MSNBC article https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/matt-gaetz-donald-trump-why-obstruction-justice-matters-n1269679 GET MORE FROM THE #SISTERSINLAW:  Joyce Vance: Twitter | University of Alabama Law | MSNBC Jill Wine-Banks: Twitter | Facebook | Website | Author of The Watergate Girl: My Fight For Truth & Justice Against A Criminal President Kimberly Atkins Stohr: Twitter | Boston Globe | WBUR Barb McQuade: Twitter | University of Michigan Law | Just Security | MSNBC Email the sisters at SISTERSINLAW@POLITICON.COM Or tweet using #SistersInLaw THIS WEEK’S SPONSORS: HEADSPACE: GO TO WWW.HEADSPACE.COM/SISTERS FOR A FREE ONE-MONTH TRIAL WITH ACCESS TO  HEADSPACE’S FULL LIBRARY OF MEDITATIONS FOR EVERY SITUATION.
