Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to review the closed-door depositions of Bill and Hillary Clinton in front of the House Oversight Committee, its lack of new revelations, and whether it means Trump will face further scrutiny.  Then, the #Sisters discuss the political fights over elections, including Republican attempts to pass the SAVE Act, mediation in Fulton County over its election records, and Trump’s proposed executive order to unilaterally change the voting process.  They also examine the battle between the Department of Defense and Anthropic over the use of its AI technology for military and surveillance purposes, and the tension between corporate independence and government dictates.

#SistersInLaw has launched a new companion podcast: #SistersInLaw Sidebar, airing Wednesdays wherever you normally get your podcasts!
