On Wednesday, Judge Beryl Howell excoriated DOJ lawyers and signaled that she may permanently block President Trump from taking action against Perkins Coie.
Last month, President Trump stripped security clearances of the employees at DNC law firm Perkins Coie.
Recall that Hillary Clinton and the DNC paid law firm Perkins Coie more than $1 million to hire oppo research firm Fusion GPS to peddle the bogus ‘Trump-Russia’ dossier during the 2016 election.
Former British spy Christopher Steele compiled over a dozen memos alleging the Russians had blackmail on Trump and that his associates were conspiring with the Kremlin to win the 2016 election.
.... Snip....
During a hearing on Wednesday, Beryl Howell accused DOJ lawyers of acting like 3-year-olds who throw temper tantrums.
The judge compared Trump’s executive action against Perkins Coie and other law firms to the “Red Scare.”

Uhhh...
Intervening years have exhibited — with no lack of clarity — that “the Red Scare” had VERY real roots, and that the truncation of activity in response to that “Red Scare” permitted those rhizomes to remain alive in the fertile soil of our Republic, where they have spread, and their pernicious shoots continue to erupt across the landscape of this country.
Senator McCarthy was absolutely right.
Institutional fellow-travelers and sympathizers mobilized to quash his efforts.
Those then-extant promoters of Marx’s hostile doctrines were not eradicated.
Their spawn are now entrenched, and the source of all the “Astroturf” protests that continually get bussed in with their assortment of pre-made signs, and paid to stand around chanting stupidity and act like overgrown toddlers (a.k.a. assholes).
WE FAILED TO KICK THEIR ASSES HARD ENOUGH IN THE 1950’s.
AND NOW WE’RE PAYING THE PRICE.
This idiot Judge is shilling for the asses we failed to kick, and the question that needs to be answered is, “HAVE WE HAD ENOUGH, YET?”
NOW are we gonna kick their asses?
Or are we gonna wimp out and punt.
Agreed!
especially since that think GOP majority only exists when one includes in the count the several turncoat or RINOs ... whose votes are notoriously unreliable at best
Question is was Beryl an attorney at Perkins Coie before becoming a Judge?
I couldn't find anything that showed she'd actually worked there, but who knows if, in another one of the positions she held before becoming a Judge, that she ever worked along side any of the lawyers who work there now?
I checked around a little bit. Howell did not work for Perkins Coie. But as a member of another big NYC law firm she probably worked with some of the people there. Interesting that she was counsel to Patrick Leahy from 1993 to 2003. That’s a dead giveaway that she is a wacko Dim activist
“They think they become gods in their second year of law school.
It’s time to overhaul the judicial system, including the ABA law schools that teach advocacy, not law, and then crank out sophists.”

The practice of law is ALL about advocacy, and the use of that advocacy in an adversarial process to tease out the real truth of a claim.
“How can you say she’s insignificant? All the hundreds January 6ers she threw in prison would like a word with you.”
Completely different cases where the President’s constitutional authority wasn’t being challenged.
