Barr Tries To Illegally Oust US Attorney Investigating Rudy Giuliani
Federal prosecutors in New York are investigating Giuliani’s business dealings, including whether he failed to register as a foreign agent, according to people familiar with the probe. The people were not authorized to discuss the investigation publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity.
There's those anonymous sources again.
Trump dug his own grave on Berman due to his habit of using acting officials. Trump and Barr now have to go through the formal process of nominating and confirming a new US Attorney, which given the slowness of the Senate, a pandemic, and the fact that it is a presidential election year, so the Senate is not scheduled to be in session hardly at all in the fall all add up to mean that Berman might be in his job through November.
Senate confirmation. Sounds like they are trying to stall LG in his investigation.
Senate Democratic Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer asked the relevant question about Trump and Barr’s move on Berman in a statement provided to PoliticusUSA, This late Friday night dismissal reeks of potential corruption of the legal process. What is angering President Trump? A previous action by this U.S. Attorney or one that is ongoing?”
