164: A Mess In Texas

Politicon
About this episode
Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the efforts by Trump to get certiorari while he attempts to stay on the ballot amid 14th Amendment based removals, and weigh whether it is a legal or political decision.  Then, the #Sisters explain the legal battles being waged in Texas over important rights and freedoms.  First, they break down President Biden’s suit against Texas over immigration enforcement and explain why the federal government takes precedence over the state due to the supremacy clause.  From there, they cover how post-Dobbs restrictions have brought Texas’ emergency room abortion ban into conflict with medicine’s best practices.
