Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to analyze Kamala’s performance in the debate and weigh its impact on the election, looking at the expectations placed on the candidates, the efficacy of the moderators, Trump’s failure to hide his bigotry, and how the electorate will interpret their performances.  Then, the #Sisters discuss the indictment of the men behind the Terrorgram Collective, the role hate crimes and terrorism statutes play in stopping violence, and whether the prosecution raises any conflicts with the right to free speech and association.  They also sound the alarm over Project 2025’s assault on workplace protections and DEI initiaitives.
