339: Donβt Take The Polygraph!
Keeps playing with the screen off. The episode is played from #SistersInLawβs own podcast host.
Joyce Vance and Barb McQuade answer listener questions on everything from Trumpβs White House ballroom to the insanity defense, and more. They discuss the Supreme Courtβs halt of construction without deciding its legality, Congressβs unused power of the purse, limits of presidential immunity and the political risks of impeachment, why private carriers cannot replace the Postal Service for ballots, why Congress and voters are the key to restoring the rule of law, Trumpβs technical eligibility to serve as Speaker after leaving office, whether polygraphs are effective, and the two-part test for not guilty by reason of insanity.
