Live with Allison Gill and Joyce Vance
If you missed us live, you’ll want to hear Mueller She Wrote podcast host Allison Gill explain why she stays on top of the overwhelming crush of political news and how she draws strength from doing it. We also discuss how Justice Department lawyers and the government have lost the presumption of regularity in court and what that means.
We close out your Saturday night and our conversation with some cautiously good news. Trump wants you to think he’s broken democracy and taken control, but that’s not the case. There are guardrails that are still working, even as Trump tries to push their limits. This is a point I’ve been making for the last couple of weeks, but our discussion tonight is timely, especially given the news today that the president intends to try in Chicago what he’s done in Los Angeles and Washington, D.C.
As I drove with my daughter to do errands this morning, we noticed a small group of people standing on a bridge holding huge American flags. I looked back as she drove on and saw that they’d dropped a big banner over the edge. It read, “Save Our Democracy.” We’re going to do just that.
We’re in this together,
Joyce
