In the aftermath of the election, Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to answer your questions.  The #Sisters cover the guardrails that can protect the country from Trump, what happens to his criminal cases and convictions, the effect of the election on his sentencing, and why the civil cases and judgments against him might prove to be the best tool for holding him accountable.  They also discuss the spread of disinformation, how to limit the dangers of social media, why people might have split their vote, getting the facts out, how to break out of our echo chambers, and more.  Check out Jill's New Politicon YouTube Show: Just The Facts Check out Kim's New Politicon Podcast: Justice By Design Get your #SistersInLaw MERCH at politicon.com/merch WEBSITE & TRANSCRIPT Email: SISTERSINLAW@POLITICON.COM or Thread to @sistersInLaw.podcast Get More From The #Sisters: From Barb: Will the Trump Prosecutions Go Away?

Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the proliferation of election lawsuits by the Republicans, the progress of their challenges to mail-in ballots in Pennslyvania, and attempts to remove voters in Alabama and Virginia.  Then, the #Sisters break down the influence of money in politics, the legality of Elon's offer of a million dollars to registered voters who sign his petition, and the pernicious effect of Citizens United on our politics.  They also explain the DOJ's role in protecting the electoral process and our rights compared to the obligations of the states and how lawsuits can be used to defend and expand our ability to vote.
