Description
On today’s episode of The MeidasTouch Podcast, the brothers have the absolute pleasure of speaking with Jill Wine-Banks! Jill is the first woman to hold the position of General Counsel of the Army, a former DOJ federal prosecutor, author, MSNBC legal analyst and host of the hit podcasts, #SistersInLaw and Intergenerational Politics. Jill’s book The Watergate Girl was released last year detailing her career in prosecutions of cases arising out of Watergate. During the interview, Jill details what it was like joining the DOJ on the prosecution team for Watergate and one of the most memorable cross-examinations ever where she examined Richard Nixon’s secretary Rose Mary Woods and proved that Wood’s story about accidentally deleting portions of Nixon's tape was not possible. After the interview, the brothers discuss what in the world is wrong with Joe Manchin & Kyrsten Sinema, as well as where we stand with the potential government shutdown. To round out the episode, the brothers cover the latest legal troubles with South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem & the bizarre way she’s connected with Trump aide Corey Lewandowski, who is facing legal troubles of his own. If you enjoyed today’s episode please be sure to rate, review and subscribe.
