In this episode of #SistersInLaw Sidebar, Jill Wine-Banks and Kimberly Atkins Stohr discuss the actions the average person can take to fight back against Trump’s unlawful actions and take your questions on everything from government procedure to critical ongoing cases.  They cover whether DHS is able to arrest and detain asylum seekers who are here lawfully, how the law treats employers who hire people here illegally, the rules of government decorum, the limits of pardon power, the fate of ballots following elections, what it would take for the Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity to be re-litigated, and more.
