211: Attorneys General

211: Attorneys General

Author: Politicon November 23, 2024 Duration: 58:36
Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss Matt Gaetz’s withdrawal from contention for attorney general in favor of Pam Bondi by looking at whether his appointment was a strategy to make her seem more palatable and the negatives she brings to the table.  Then, the #Sisters detail the guardrails being erected by governors, a coalition of state attorney generals, and ordinary citizens to defend our constitution from the 2nd Trump administration.  They also explain the status of Trump’s cases in GA and NY, what will happen before he takes office and the fate of his co-conspirators who have already pled guilty.
