Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York is one of the most talked-about potential Democratic candidates for the White House in 2020. But she has also turned into a thorn in the side of the Department of Justice as she holds up one of DOJ's highest-profile postings.
The junior senator from New York plans to use her “blue-slip prerogative” to block the confirmation of Geoffrey S. Berman, if he is nominated by President Trump to be the United States attorney for the Southern District of New York, Gillibrand spokesman Glen Caplin told Fox News.
Berman, 58, a former prosecutor in the office, has been appointed by Attorney General Jeff Sessions as the interim U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York. The posting has jurisdiction over all businesses in Manhattan, including those of Trump and his family.
Gillibrand doesn't have an issue with Berman’s qualifications. Her objection lies with the man who nominated him and reports that Berman personally met with the president as part of the selection process.
“This is about President Trump,” Caplin said. "Senator Gillibrand believes U.S. attorneys work for the people they serve and must be independent from the White House.”
He called it a “cornerstone of our democracy” and said reports that Trump took the “unusual step of personally interviewing Berman are deeply disturbing, considering the conflicts of interest inherent by his potential jurisdiction on matters that could affect the president personally."
Caplin said that if the meeting between Trump and Berman occurred, as purported, it should be disqualifying.

It’s to imagine Gillibrand in this state of mind. If you brought up her name in all fifty states...she might have name recognition in NY state, but she’d be a nobody in at least 40 states. In Iowa? A lost cause. Even as a VP possibility...I’d give her less than a 10-percent chance.
Sorry, there is zero chance that 51% of Americans will elect President Cutie-Pie.
