The DOJ’s Failed Attempts To Meddle In The Midterms

About this episode

Election Day is upon us, and President Trump is already trying to sow doubt in the results – with the help of the courts. But first, Leah, Kate, and Melissa preview the cases the Supreme Court will be hearing this week, including St. Mary Catholic Parish v. Roy, a Colorado case that puts anti-LGBT discrimination back in the spotlight. Then, it’s time to get into the DOJ’s failed attempt to segregate ballots in California, and its lawsuit against Alaska for allowing more than one candidate named Dan Sullivan to run for Senate. Plus, some fun reenactments of a bonkers hearing on the D.C. golf course Trump wants to renovate.
