  6. #DOJ Targets Hundreds of #Citizens in New Push for #Denaturalization

    The #Trump admin is assigning denaturalization cases to regular prosecutors, which could lead to a surge of people stripped of US citizenship.

    The DOJ has identified 384 foreign-born Americans whose #citizenship it wants to revoke, part of a push to increase the pace of denaturalizations by assigning the cases to prosecutors in dozens of #USattorney’s offices across the country.

  7. Federal prosecutors made an unannounced visit this week to a construction site at #FederalReserve HQ that is the focus of an investigation into a $2.5B renovation project, acc/to 2 people….

    2 prosecutors & an investigator from #Trump lackey & #USAttorney #JeaninePirro’s office were turned away on Tuesday by a building contractor & referred to Fed attorneys, one of the people said.

  13. Top #Trump housing official, #BillPulte, issues new #criminal referral for New York AG #LetitiaJames after several previous attempts failed

    According to a person familiar with the matter, Pulte, the director of the #FHFA, issued 2 referrals to the #DOJ, one to the #USAttorney for Northern District of Illinois & another to the US Attorney for Southern District of Florida.

    Both alleged “suspected homeowners insurance fraud.”

  18. The hearing did not go as prosecutors had planned. Judge Quraishi grew frustrated with the office’s head of appeals, Mark Coyne, who had not formally disclosed that he would appear, & fiercely interrogated a more junior prosecutor about whether the former interim #USattorney, #AlinaHabba, still had some role in operating the office.

    Judge Quraishi eventually threw Coyne out.

  19. In a blistering 27-page decision unsealed on Friday, the judge, James #Boasberg, derided the #USattorney’s office in Washington, led by the #Trump loyalist #JeaninePirro, for pursuing a case against #JeromePowell. It appeared that the only reason prosecutors had to do so, he added, was Trump’s desire to seek #vengeance against the #Fed chair. Powell has long resisted calls from the White House to adjust #InterestRates for political reasons.

  20. Prosecutors in the Miami #USattorney’s office have been leading the #JohnBrennan probe, which relates to testimony the ex-intelligence chief gave to #Congress in 2023 & the #Russia investigation years earlier, issuing 2 rounds of subpoenas to several witnesses.

    Yet the push for charges has run into career prosecutors raising concerns in southern Florida, with some viewing the potential case as relatively weak.

  21. US District Judge Matthew Brann said that a trio of #DOJ lawyers who have been leading the office since late last year had been unlawfully serving in their positions. AG #PamBondi appointed them after Brann disqualified #AlinaHabba, #Trump’s previous choice for #USattorney in NJ, in August amid similar questions over the legality of her appointment.

  22. Trio named to replace #AlinaHabba as #USattorney is also serving illegally, judge says

    A federal judge upended the leadership of New Jersey’s US attorney’s office again Monday, ruling for the second time in less than a year that the #Trump admin had illegally sought to bypass #Congress & install its own picks to head the prominent prosecutorial outpost.

  23. #LindseyHalligan faces investigation by #Florida #Bar
    
The #DOJ has proposed new “regulations” that would allow it to intervene in state bar disciplinary actions, which it claims have become “weaponized.”

    Halligan, the former interim #USattorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, is facing an investigation by the Florida Bar for her role in pursuing criminal charges against 2 of #Trump’s most prominent political foes….

  24. The proposal would give the #USattorney general the right to review misconduct allegations against current or former #DOJ #attorneys & request that disciplinary authorities at the state level suspend their investigations.

    That would mean that ​the #US AG, by dragging out such a review, could stall any such investigation.

  25. Rosen wrote that “*newly* discovered #evidence in this matter is materially inconsistent with the allegations” that #federal officials made in a charging #document & in courtroom #testimony.

    “Accordingly, #dismissal with #prejudice will serve the interests of #justice,” wrote Rosen, who was nominated by #Trump to be #USattorney in #Minnesota.

  27. White House Fires Top Prosecutor Hours After Judges Appointed Him

  28. Federal #judges have found a number of US attorneys whose appointments were the result of unusual legal maneuvers by the #Trump admin to be serving unlawfully.

    Along with Sarcone, they include #AlinaHabba, who was the acting #USattorney in NJ, & #LindseyHalligan, formerly the acting US attorney for the Eastern District of VA, as well as a handful of others.

  35. A day before 6 career federal #prosecutors resigned in #protest over #DOJ’s handling of the killing of #ReneeGood in #Minneapolis, lawyers in the office had a conversation with #Bovino, the #BorderPatrol field leader, that left them deeply unsettled.

    Acc/to several people with knowledge of the conversation on Jan 12, Bovino made derisive remarks about the #faith of the #USattorney in #Minnesota, Daniel N. Rosen. Rosen is an Orthodox #Jew & observes Shabbat….

  37. Federal investigators have also refused to cooperate with state & local prosecutors in #Minnesota, complicating any efforts they might take to open their own investigations into Ross.

    Instead of allowing Mergen to work with the #USattorney in #Minneapolis to investigate Ross, #DOJ has decided to investigate #ReneeGood & her partner, #BeccaGood, scrutinizing their possible ties to left-wing #protest groups. That decision prompted at least 6 senior prosecutors in the office to resign in protest.

  40. The #CourtOrders issued Tues marked an escalation, signaling active efforts by the #judges to appoint the district’s top federal prosecutor under a #federal #law that gives them the power to do so after an interim #USattorney has been in office for 120 days. That order by Lauck was followed hours later with another one from Novak, who raised the threat of #disciplinary action for anyone who describes #LindseyHalligan as the #US attorney in #legal filings.
