Lindsey Halligan was appointed after President Donald Trump urged Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute the former FBI director and the New York attorney general. Bondi said Monday that the Justice Department will appeal the judge's ruling.
Fair. But even though this is clearly a politically motivated prosecution, I’d rather see the system operate the way it’s supposed to. The prosecutor shouldn’t be able to cut corners, and the judge shouldn’t take liberties.
If Halligan is the caliber of lawyer that Trump can get to bring these cases, then I think James will be fine.
