Joyce Vance is joined by guest co-host Barb McQuade while Preet is traveling. Barb served as the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan from 2010 to 2017. 

In this segment from the episode, Joyce and Barb break down the civil lawsuit filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James against former President Donald Trump, three of his adult children, and others for allegedly taking part in a years-long financial fraud scheme.

In the full episode, Joyce and Barb discuss:

• The likelihood that Trump faces criminal charges for the conduct outlined in James’s lawsuit;
• The ruling by a three-judge panel of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals that permits DOJ to resume investigating the classified documents that were seized from Mar-a-Lago; and
• Special Master Judge Raymond Dearie’s first hearing with prosecutors and Trump’s attorneys.
