Description: Barb McQuade hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the SCOTUS ruling in Fischer, which threw out obstruction charges faced by a J6 rioter, explain why it should not affect Trump’s case, and look ahead to the Court’s immunity decision. Then, the #Sisters cover the overturning of the Chevron deference doctrine, decode how it will impact our rights and the ability of Congress to enact legislation, and spell out how the decision reinforces the death of stare decisis.  They also examine Julian Assange’s guilty plea to violating the Espionage Act at WikiLeaks, explore the similarities to Trump’s MAL case, and weigh whether Assange’s actions were an act of journalism relatable to publishing the Pentagon Papers.Get your #SistersInLaw merchandise at politicon.com/merchMentioned By The #Sisters:Project 2025’s Leadership & OrganizationJill With Daniel EllsbergWEBSITE & TRANSCRIPTEmail: SISTERSINLAW@POLITICON.COM or Thread to @sistersInLaw.podcastGet text updates from Politicon. Please Support This Week’s Sponsors:Wild Grain: Get $30 off and free croissants in every box when you start your subscription to delicious quick-bake artisanal pastries, pasta, and bread at wildgrain.com/sisters with promo code: SISTERSRhone:Upgrade your closet with Rhone and use SISTERS to save 20% at www.rhone.com/sistersHoneyLove:Get 20% OFF @honeylove by going to honeylove.com/sisters! #honeylovepodHelix:Get up to 30% off all mattress orders and two free pillows for our listeners!
