  2. 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.

  5. In obvious violation of the #SeparationOfPowers, #Trump says he “probably” plans to bring a lawsuit related to the practice of “blue slips” by which members of the #Senate are able to reject #USattorney appointments.

    He also said he planned to sue #California over its #redistricting plans, which is absolutely admitting that what #Texas did with their congressional map was wrong, & it was done at his request. #ForMeButNotForThee
