In this ambiguous time it's imperative that citizens maintain political awareness through recording, documenting, and noting all of the heinous acts being committed against Americans and against other citizens in the world by a convicted rapist who is currently sitting as a US President. The outcomes we are now suffering through as a people are not only unconstitutional, but are very obviously self serving, which is a disgusting display of a corrupt individual abusing a Presidential position.

I am so happy that we now get full episodes from Liz and all of the information she has to share with us. Her strength and courage in speaking out is very important. Being able to listen to a discussion about history, the law, politics, etc is so much more understandable with the guidance of everybody’s favorite lawyer! Thank you, Liz. Stay safe and keep fighting the good fight (as my dad would say!) I look forward to a new episode drops!
Liz Oyer was recommended to me as the rarest of jewels: the Instagram- friendly, talented attorney who can explain the workings of the Washington legal machine with clarity, fairness and honesty.

Ms. Oyer has already shared a great deal of cogent information through well-crafted questions and discussion wi... more
Great decision to begin this podcast with an explanation of the DOJ. And having rationale voices calmly explain complex ideas? Well, that’s just refreshing. Thank you for DOJ 101!
Can’t wait for the day when you are nominated.
