Oddly enough, his history of absolute fealty to the person of this president-slash-emperor could prove a hindrance in his quest to be confirmed as the next attorney general of the United States. For at least some Senate Republicans, a scintilla of independence may still be a job requirement. On this week\u2019s Amicus podcast, Dahlia Lithwick interviewed veteran federal prosecutor and MS NOW legal analyst Andrew Weissmann. Weissmann served as a lead prosecutor in Robert S. Mueller\u2019s special counsel\u2019s office from 2017\u201319 and as chief of the Fraud Section at the DOJ from 2015\u201319. His new book, <em>Liar\u2019s Kingdom: How to Stop Trump\u2019s Deceit and Save America<\/em>, came out three weeks ago and became an instant New York Times bestseller. Part of their conversation, which has been edited and condensed for clarity, appears below.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/homemovechronicle.com\/?p=177\">There\u2019s a Terrible Reason Why This Ebola Outbreak Is Different<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dahlia Lithwick: Donald Trump announced at a private dinner last Wednesday that Todd Blanche will be the next attorney general, so no more <em>acting<\/em> AG. This is a position Blanche has been serving in for two months, since Pam Bondi left the building. We\u2019ve got two months of data about\u00a0the kind of AG he might be. What have we learned, and what does it change in terms of his confirmation battle?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Andrew Weissmann:<\/strong> I\u2019ve been thinking about what that confirmation battle might look like, because we have not just the two months of data where Blanche has been in control of the Department of Justice, but, before that, when he was the right hand to Bondi and, according to her, also the principal person dealing with the Epstein files.<\/p>\n<p>There are two stories there. There\u2019s a story about corruption, about what he\u2019s willing to do, the complicity he is willing to engage in for the president. The other is a question of competence. Here is somebody who has made a series of serious missteps. The slush fund is just the latest. Let\u2019s not forget that they announced they\u2019re doing this $2\u00a0billion fictitious settlement, then, after they get pushback and the judge overseeing the case says she wants to hear from them\u2014which, by the way, is still pending\u2014about why this is not fraud upon the court, they essentially say, \u201cNever mind!\u201d Whatever you could say about Bill Barr and what he was willing to do, he was extraordinarily smart, and he played chess, not checkers.<\/p>\n<p>I think, with Blanche, there\u2019s such an array of things to ask him about. The only question is whether senators will be effective in asking those questions. But if they get their act together, this could be a way to highlight how much the rule of law has been undermined in the Trump administration.<\/p>\n<div>\n<template><br \/>\n<iframe frameborder=\"no\" height=\"200\" loading=\"lazy\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"\" title=\"Republicans Have the Chance to Do the Funniest Thing Ever With Todd Blanche\u2019s Nomination\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<\/template><\/p>\n<div><noscript><br \/>\n<\/noscript><\/div>\n<p>View Transcript\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>It\u2019s interesting, because when I think back to Barr, I think of somebody who was willing to give Trump, what, 85, 90\u00a0percent of what he wanted? Bondi was willing to give him 92\u00a0percent of what he wanted. That wasn\u2019t enough. Now we\u2019ve got Blanche, who, I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s 98, 99, or 100\u00a0percent. Thus far, we\u2019ve thought of that level of \u201cWhatever the boss wants\u201d deference to the president as cost free. The question is, does there become some meaningful cost for Republican senators? Some of them squawked about the slush fund in ways that took me by surprise. Is there some cost to being the guy who says yes to absolutely everything? The fund came out of the DOJ. Blanche was a staunch advocate\u2014and the fund reportedly blindsided even folks at the White House, who also give Trump 100\u00a0percent of what he wants.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Yet last week we heard Blanche tell Congress the fund is off the table but also refuse to put that in writing. Then, Republican senators blocked efforts to legally ban the fund in last Thursday\u2019s vote-orama. Is this over?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let me just give the strict legal answer, and maybe we can pan out from there. The slush fund was created to settle a lawsuit where Trump brought a civil case for $10\u00a0billion. Even Trump said, when he brought the original case, that it was odd, because he\u2019s both the plaintiff and the defendant. Clearly, I think Congress should pass a law that says: <em>You know what? When you\u2019re president of the United States, you cannot bring a civil suit against an agency you control. If you have a civil claim, wait till you\u2019re no longer president.<\/em> That\u00a0seems like an obvious, easy fix, and Congress has that power. That\u2019s what Congress should be doing. It shouldn\u2019t be thinking in this small-ball way about passing a law that the slush fund can\u2019t exist. No. Let\u2019s deal with the power of the presidency here. No president has ever done it, because no president should do it.<\/p>\n<p>The federal judge overseeing the case has reopened the matter and now says she wants to hear, by Friday, why this is not all a fraud on the court. The idea being: <em>This isn\u2019t actually a real lawsuit, and in cases where the same kind of claims have been made, the IRS has defended those cases and asserted all sorts of defenses<\/em>. The IRS didn\u2019t do that here. The most obvious defense to the case was that it was brought too late; it should have been brought within two years, and how much money would Trump be owed if this were a true lawsuit? That would be zero. As I have joked, I do not do math in public, but even I will tell you that zero is less than $1.776\u00a0billion.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/homemovechronicle.com\/?p=175\">Prattfall<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Even the amount $1.776\u00a0billion tells you that this is not a legitimate settlement, because a settlement is supposed to be a figure that is tethered to the damage or harm to the person. You\u2019re telling me that a leak of Donald Trump\u2019s tax-return information cost him $1.776\u00a0billion, and it just happens to be that number?<\/p>\n<p>The president got two things out of this purported settlement. The other thing he got was this broad civil release, and that is staying intact. There was the\u00a0$1.776\u00a0billion settlement, which he was going to use to create this alleged anti-weaponization fund, but then he got this broad civil release for himself, his family, his companies. But he\u2019s facing pushback. Now that he has to give up <em>something<\/em>, what does he give up? The money for other people, even though it\u2019s $1.776\u00a0billion, yeah, that can go. The part for him, that stays. We\u2019re supposed to believe that this is still a legitimate settlement between two adverse parties? I think the judge on this case is going to have a field day in finding that this is something that was collusive, that there was no real bargaining between the DOJ and the IRS and Trump. The plaintiff is the defendant. The defendant is the plaintiff. This story is not over legally in terms of what the judge is going to do and what additional findings could be made about what happened here and the factual record.<\/p>\n<p>I think this is akin to the administration stealing money from the taxpayers. Step\u00a01 is stealing the money. Step\u00a02 is using it for criminals and relabeling them victims. It\u2019s just that <em>second<\/em> step that Congress is saying shouldn\u2019t happen. It\u2019s that second step that Blanche now says they\u2019re not going to do as a big slush fund. But they can still dribble money out to these people in the way they did with Michael Flynn and Carter Page. My analogy is that it\u2019s a little bit like Immigration and Customs Enforcement. ICE is still doing the exact same stuff that caused the uproar in Minnesota, but it\u2019s doing it in a quieter way so it doesn\u2019t get bad press. And here, if you dribble out this money individually to people making claims, like they did with Flynn and Page\u2014and, now, with all sorts of Jan.\u00a06 people\u2014they can still get the money to these people with the same deleterious effect, but without causing an outcry in public and on Capitol Hill.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You\u2019ve said the judge has promised to scrutinize this. What recourse does she have? Can she really hold them to account in some way? And I guess the same question, different verse, but this question of the blanket immunity from scrutiny for the Trump family and their taxes. Is there a path to challenging that in court and winning?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So the easy question to answer is the legitimacy of the piece of paper Blanche signed\u2014he is the only one who signed it\u2014which is this broad civil release. I think that is not worth the paper it\u2019s printed on. If you have a legitimate administration in office in the future, whether Republican, Democratic, independent\u2014anybody who cares about the rule of law in the next executive branch\u2014they can open a tax investigation into all of the things Trump purports to say was released. So if they think Trump, his companies, or his family still owes money, they can still investigate, and Trump would have to say, \u201cNo, no, no, I have this piece of paper! Look at this piece of paper that my attorney general, aka the person formerly known as my defense lawyer, Todd Blanche, signed!\u201d And there would be a hearing where the judge would decide whether that was the product of fraud, essentially the same kind of thing that we\u2019re talking about that the federal judge is currently looking into.<\/p>\n<p>With respect to what the judge could do now, I think that is a really interesting question, because it goes to one of the things that Blanche really screwed up on here, which is: They brought this case in a court. Trump brought this $10\u00a0billion case to court. The argument for why this was collusive is, well, you could have just engaged in a private settlement where Trump submits a letter that says, \u201cI have this claim,\u201d then the DOJ promises to resolve it, but you never really go to court. That can happen in civil litigation: Sometimes you have a private agreement, where both sides agree that they want to get rid of the case before they make a federal case out of it. If they had done that, no court would have been involved. But why did they not do that? They didn\u2019t do that because they wanted to have the trappings and the veneer of making it look as if it were a real federal case. You heard the president talk about how he was really hurt. And then you have Blanche talking about how this is a settlement, it\u2019s traditional, and we do this all the time in settlements. They wanted to be able to cloak this in the air of legitimacy, when it has nothing to do with what a real lawsuit would look like. But because they did that, it gave the judge a hook to say, <em>We\u2019re not going to be a party to it<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Now the question is, what\u2019s the judge going to do about it? What the judge could do, and this is yet another thing Blanche can be questioned about at his confirmation hearing, is say, \u201cI think what the lawyers did here is improper, and I am referring it to the Bar Association.\u201d There\u2019s something that\u2019s gotten very little attention, but that Mary McCord and I have tried to shine a light on on our podcast: A few weeks ago, Blanche, on behalf of the DOJ, filed a brief in Washington stating that bar associations should have no jurisdiction over attorneys at the DOJ. The remedy we\u2019re talking about that the court could impose is one that Blanche is saying shouldn\u2019t exist. As somebody who was at the DOJ for 21 years, I find that to be anathema to how I thought about public service. If you don\u2019t want public scrutiny, and you don\u2019t want to be held to a high ethical standard, don\u2019t take the <span>job!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/homemovechronicle.com\/?p=173\">Trump Is Making the U.S. an Increasingly Irrelevant Power<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Is this the line?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":178,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[24,10,11],"class_list":["post-179","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-jurisprudence","tag-department-of-justice","tag-donald-trump","tag-jurisprudence"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
