Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the latest developments concerning the slush fund for J6 defendants and others, covering court rulings by Judges Leon and Brinkema that halted it and skepticism about the administration’s claims that it was dead.  Then, they examine Ken Paxton’s retaliatory lawsuit against the Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue and the partisan congressional hearing that sought to question its CEO.  They also analyze Trump’s push to have Congress pass a resolution expunging his two impeachments from the record, explaining why his plan won’t work and how it weakens existing avenues for government accountability.
