  1. Giuffra’s efforts on Adani’s behalf culminated in a previously unreported meeting last month at the #DOJ’s headquarters in Washington…. Giuffra ticked through ~100 slides outlining why prosecutors lacked basic evidence, as well as the jurisdiction to bring the case….

    Another slide also offered the government a sweetener [#bribe]: If prosecutors dropped the charges, Adani would be willing to invest $10 billion in the US #economy & create 15,000 jobs….

  6. The depth of the #Trump admin’s #criminal #corruption on display:

    When #DOJ indicted India’s richest man in the final weeks of the #Biden admin, prosecutors described an “elaborate” #bribery scheme involving “corruption & #fraud at the expense of US investors.”

    Now…the DOJ is planning to drop the charges altogether.

    The reversal came after the Indian #billionaire, Gautam Adani, hired a new legal team led by Robert J. Giuffra Jr., one of Trump’s personal lawyers.

  16. 2 weeks after the firing of Tirrell, #ToddBlanche took the unusual step of interviewing #convicted #SexTrafficker #GhislaineMaxwell, fmr partner of the late Jeffrey #Epstein, while she serves time in prison. In that interview, Blanche asked Maxwell about her interactions with #Trump many years before he became president, & she claimed Trump had done no wrong.

  26. …the #Trump admin has gutted both the DOJ’s career #ethics staff & its office of professional responsibility, & not replaced well-respected advisers for #DOJ headquarters who had over the years advised on some of the thorniest questions for leaders.

    Tirrell, the ethics official who had briefed #ToddBlanche on recusal, was fired in July. He has since sued the Justice Department seeking compensation.

  31. Among those targeted for possible prosecution is #JohnBrennan, the fmr #CIA director—a top priority for #Trump in his efforts to prosecute his political foes. Brennan denies wrongdoing. Last week, a spox told CNN #ToddBlanche had not recused from the Brennan investigation.
