Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to cautiously celebrate ICE’s retreat from Minneapolis now that Congress is stepping up its oversight by demanding reforms and a judge has rebuked the administration for denying legal representation to detainees. Then, the #Sisters discuss the validity of the FBI’s Fulton County warrant in light of the lack of evidence, the continued hawking of related conspiracy theories about the 2020 election that weaken public trust, and a grand jury’s failure to indict Democratic Members of Congress for supposedly undermining the military. They also break down the merits of ongoing trials targeting social media addiction, comparing the companies involved to the tobacco industry, and explaining the implications for our 1st Amendment rights.
