In this episode of Sisters Sidebar, Joyce Vance and Barbara McQuade emphasize the need for civic engagement and government accountability, and take your questions on ethics, resistance, politics, and the law.  They discuss how Congress can hold government officials like Pam Bondi accountable; how the law treats incitements to violence; the legal issues created by the label of domestic terrorism; protesters’ rights; the ethical responsibilities of DOJ officials; how gender affects how politicians are treated by the media; and more.
