Defense attorneys for the pair have been aggressively challenging evidence & sought a speedy trial.
The motion from assistant #USattorneys Ronald DeWald & Aaron Bond did not explain the decision. A US attorney’s office spox did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The ability to #filibuster also amplifies the #influence of each senator, allowing any one member of the body to threaten to slow or block #legislation if his or her demands aren’t met, a regular #Senate ritual.
The fight over federal prosecutors [#USattorneys] gets much less attention than the fate of the famed filibuster, but it is clearly vexing #Trump & presenting real complications for the White House as it seeks to pursue criminal charges against Trump’s perceived enemies.

When it comes to preserving the legislative #filibuster & controlling the confirmation of #USattorneys, #Republicans are so far holding their ground in the face of intensifying White House pressure to jettison #Senate practices that #Trump sees as holding him back. In both cases, the rules empower senators on a personal & political level in a way that they are reluctant to surrender — even to a demanding president whom they rarely challenge.

#Republicans Hold Firm on #Filibuster & Prosecutor Veto Power, for Now
#Trump is showing mounting frustration at his inability to win confirmation of #USattorneys in blue states or break the filibuster's grip on the #Senate. The #GOP has been uncharacteristically uncooperative.

…Federal #court districts maintain local #rules that all #attorneys connected to a
case must adhere to.
#Lawyers & staff tied to a pending case generally must refrain from issuing #opinions publicly about the matter, & that obligation attaches to staff & members of a law firm or organization outside the immediate courtroom team. #DOJ officials in Washington are held to the same standard as local assistant #USattorneys who appear in court. -
