They actually argued to a federal judge that the Judge should ignore Watergate precedent .... because it was WRONG!
This:
“ Justice Department lawyers urged a federal judge Tuesday to deny a House Judiciary Committee request for grand-jury materials from former special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s investigation, arguing that despite legal rulings during the impeachment inquiry into President Richard M. Nixon, in hindsight courts in 1974 should not have given Congress materials from the Watergate grand jury.
“Wow, okay,” Chief U.S. District Judge Beryl A. Howell of Washington responded, sounding unpersuaded. “As I said, the department is taking extraordinary positions in this case.”
Hard to get a federal judge to say “wow” to your argument. It’s that stupid though and that disingenuous.
Trump has corrupted the entire admin.
