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….

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.

#Ethics challenges continue to arise for #ToddBlanche & others in the administration, especially as their press conferences often highlight how federal law enforcement is carrying out Trump’s wishes, & even #retribution.
In his first press conference as acting attorney general, Blanche notably remarked, “I love you, sir,” to #Trump.
