Leahy Subpoenas Rove, Jennings For Documents And Testimony Related To U.S. Attorneys Purge
Leahy Subpoenas Rove, Jennings For Documents And Testimony Related To U.S. Attorneys Purge
Senate Judiciary Chairman Pat Leahy (D-VT) announced today he is issuing subpoenas compelling White House officials Karl Rove and J. Scott Jennings to provide testimony and information into the firings of U.S. attorneys.
“What the White House stonewalling is preventing is conclusive evidence of who made the decisions to fire these federal prosecutors,” Leahy wrote.
“Indeed, the evidence we have been able to collect points to Karl Rove and the political operatives at the White House.”
The White House’s refusal to allow a transcript of Rove’s testimony forced the Committee to issue the subpoenas. Leahy argued that the White House’s “blanket assertions of executive privilege” are fomenting a “constitutional crisis”:
With our service of these subpoenas, I hope that the White House takes this opportunity to reconsider its blanket claim of executive privilege, especially in light of the testimony that President was not involved in the dismissals of these U.S. Attorneys. I hope that the White House steps back from this constitutional crisis of its own making so that we can begin to repair the damage done by its untoward interference with federal law enforcement. … Mr. Rove and the White House must not be allowed to continue manipulating our justice system to pursue a partisan political agenda.
Documents revealed that “the idea of firing all 93 U.S. attorneys” was raised by Rove in early January 2005, and discussed with Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. The evidence indicated “Rove was more involved in the plan than previously acknowledged by the White House.” Furthermore, U.S. attorney Bud Cummins was allegedly fired to make way for Rove-protege Tim Griffin.
Jennings set up a meeting between Moonica Goodling and New Mexico Republican officials in June 2006 to discuss U.S. Attorney David Iglesias’s “situation” in New Mexico. Documents show that Jennings also had knowledge of the plan for firing the U.S. attorneys.
The deadline for submitting documents and testimony is August 2 at 10:00 a.m.

And if it takes inherent contempt and some jail time, or impeachment, so be it.

July 26th, 2007 at 2:01 pmThe mere use of “executive privilege” to stonewall this investigation tells the story that the situation reverts directly back to Rove and Bush. The exec. privilege claim just makes it patently clear to everyone that they’re involved. Are they that moronic?

Why post a meaningless comment? Witch hunt? Please define. Waaay too vague to make a point.
Isn’t it up to the sitting president’s discretion? - Bush said he didn’t know anything about it. It might be up to his discretion to fire them, but if he’s not involved, who did do it?
If it’s a “non-issue”, why did Monica Goodling voluntarily resign and then take the 5th? If she had nothing to hide, why did she do that?

So now we have a situation where we are racing to see if Bush can stonewall until Jan, 20 2009, or if the Dems can get the ball rolling, and remove him and his cronies. Good luck to the Dems.

-Newty G.
July 26th, 2007 at 2:04 pmBesides, one could hardly label this as a “witch hunt” when it is clearly an “obstruction of justice” which has occurred. A witch hunt implies non-culpability and one using vendetta tactics; this is so far from that that it’s comical to denegrade it so. In actuality, what they are trivializing as a witch hung is prima facie evidence of impeachable offenses: high crimes and misdemeanors - aka “obstruction of justice”.
July 26th, 2007 at 2:04 pmsorry about the freudian slip….”witch hung”….. instead of “witch hunt”…. guess truth is often said in jest….and they will be “hung” when all is said and done.
July 26th, 2007 at 2:05 pmIt’s more like shooting fish in a barrel than a witch hunt.

July 26th, 2007 at 2:10 pmWhat Bush/Cheney should do now is tell Congress and the American people that they have no rights and all crimes committed are with the approval of the President and none of any one’s business. We no longer have a Legal System or Constitution so all this is a waste of time. Americans should know by now that we no longer have an elected President but a Dictator name George W. Bush. Even Gonzales laughed during his testimony because he knows there is nothing anyone can do to stop the Dictator George W. Bush from continuing his crime wave.
July 26th, 2007 at 2:11 pmThe United States went to Iraq to bring down a Dictator name Saddam and calls for all Dictator around the world to be removed yet we have the Axis of Evil running the White House oh course in the name of God while doing Satan’s work. Nixon couldn’t get executive privilege when he broke the law now everyone in the White House even the janitor has it. Duke is now talking because he didn’t get what Libby got. Miers and Gonzales should be disbarred as Miers is in contempt of court and Gonzales out right lies under oath all the time. What does the oath under God mean anymore if even lawyers can lie.

Comment by Snooper — July 26, 2007 @ 1:57 pm
This is a typical wingnut talking point — “the U.S. Attorneys serve at the pleasure of the president”. And they do. The President may get rid of any of them he deems unfit for the office. So why is this an issue?
1) Firing this many of your OWN appointees (about 10%) in the middle of your term is unprecedented. People are going to ask “why?”.
2) Many of the firings look suspicious because the attorney fired either refused to do something shady that the BA wanted (Seattle’s USA was fired because he refused to declare voter fraud in a close election), or “went after” the wrong people (San Diego’s USA was fired for her pursuing criminal activities of a Republican congressman).
3) Other firings look suspicious because they were done just in time to install a bigger Bush sycophant in the job.
4) Because of the Patriot Act, there are virtually no limits on temporary appointments, which would have enabled Bush to appoint anyone he wanted in these positions permanently without any kind of congressional confirmation. There is some evidence suggesting that “all 93″ of the USAs were to be fired, presumably to allow appointments without confirmation to proceed.
Who cares about the firings? WE care about the firings! We care that they may have been due to the incumbents’ reluctance to engage in illegal activities for this administration, or to install people who would have that willingness.
If the Bushies truly have nothing to hide, and everything they have done is on the up and up, they should have no problem allowing their staff members to come discuss it with the Senate. Instead, we are getting “executive privilege” declarations (since when is firing 10% of your attorneys a matter of grave national security?), stonewalling, and entirely too much “I don’t know, I don’t remember, I don’t recall, I can’t answer that”.
July 26th, 2007 at 2:13 pmOkay. If these people were fired in order to obstruct justice, then that is one thing.
HOWEVER, if they were fired so that a partisan agenda could be pushed, it may not be illegal, but it still would deserve the attention of the commitee, and should be investigated to see if obstruction or other illegal activites happened because of the move.
July 26th, 2007 at 2:15 pmI (heart) Pat Leahy!
July 26th, 2007 at 2:21 pmThis can turn out nothing but well for us.. eventually, somehow it WILL end up in court.. and either…
A) my money says that the court will uniformly thow out the absurd “absolute executive privledge” argument..then the embarassasing spectacle will continue for Rove + co…
or
B) the court freakishly decides that presidential advisers have absolute immunity from congressional oversight. in which case… say hello to an untouchable president HIllary in 2008..
even though the Supreme court is stacked to the right these days, these guys have to be smart enough to know that giving the exectutive branch that much power is going to come back to bite them when the day comes (most likely sooner than later) that they dont control it….
July 26th, 2007 at 2:22 pmI would like the courts to rule on the limits of executive privilege.
And if they rule poorly, I wouldn’t mind amending the Constitution to define the limits of this tactic, which obviously is being used to throw the balance of the government branches out the window.
July 26th, 2007 at 2:26 pmI love it when a witch hunt finds lots of witches.

There may be an ounce of truth in that …
Like Watergate, it may be the cover-up that is more interesting than the “underlying crime”.
July 26th, 2007 at 2:42 pmRemoving a prosecutor for the purpose of derailing an ongoing case is obstruction of justice.
Just like your boss can fire you whenever he wants, he can’t fire you for, say, refusing to participate in oral sex.
Yes the power is there, but the permission is not. One is just fine, the other is a crime: Context is the difference. Of course it is impossible to establish context unless information is provided… which is why these idiots are being subpoenaed.

Well Snoopy, some of us believe in the sanctity of the Justice Department and the Constitution. Obviously Bushco doesn’t and people like you, loyal followers to the end, support the Administration more than your country.
Real Americans should be more concerned in preserving the US system of government instead of their own personal agenda the way neocons do.
July 26th, 2007 at 2:57 pmExcuse me. Who cares about the firings? You mean to tell me that federal Prosecutors in Alabama didn’t shop for a new judge for Gov. Seigleman’s case? Carol Lamb got fired right as she was heading towards jerry Lewis’ ass. Karl Rove has a history of using trumped up investigations as a tool for winning elections and that is what this is all about. You doubting Thomas’ should go read Scott Horton’s page over at Harpers or Talking Points Memo. A Fifth grader could figure whack job scheme this out. Even the major newspapers in Alabama are suspect. Sorry your loyalty has your ignorance at delusional levels.

BBC: Bush’s Grandfather Planned Fascist Coup In America
New investigation sheds light on clique of powerbrokers, including Prescott Bush, who sought to overthrow U.S. government and implement Hitlerian policies.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4-TL5AGHFY
A BBC Radio 4 investigation sheds new light on a major subject that has received little historical attention, the conspiracy on behalf of a group of influential powerbrokers, led by Prescott Bush, to overthrow FDR and implement a fascist dictatorship in the U.S. based around the ideology of Mussolini and Hitler.
In 1933, Marine Corps Maj.-Gen. Smedley Butler was approached by a wealthy and secretive group of industrialists and bankers, including Prescott Bush the current President’s grandfather, who asked him to command a 500,000 strong rogue army of veterans that would help stage a coup to topple then President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
According to the BBC, the plotters intended to impose a fascist takeover and “Adopt the policies of Hitler and Mussolini to beat the great depression.”

If the founding fathers of this great country had been as pessimistic we would still be under the rule of England.

July 26th, 2007 at 3:11 pm#53 ~ In a situation like this, our founding fathers grabbed the offending politicians, tarred and feathered them, and rode them out of town on a rail.
Tarring and feathering was a cruel punishment where hot pine tar was applied from head to toe on a person and goose feathers were stuck into the tar. The person was then ignited and ridden out of town on a rail (tied to a splintery rail), beaten with sticks and stoned all the while. A man’s skin often came off when he removed the tar. It was a common practice to tar and feather Tories who refused to join the revolutionary cause.
July 26th, 2007 at 3:19 pmThis needs to be BREAKING NEWS on all net works…and BREAKING NEWS when and how the obstructionist republicans deal with this.
July 26th, 2007 at 3:21 pm#36 missmolly:
I have #7 for you:
7) Because Bush says he didn’t have anything to do with firing the US attorneys. So, if he’s telling the truth, then who fired them and where did they get their authority to do it?
July 26th, 2007 at 3:27 pmPlease explain to me the refusal for a transcript.
As we’ve seen with Gonzo the Great, when you testify before the Senate they make a transcript. Then you are given a copy of the transcript with the opportunity to clarify anything that may be unclear or even something that **gasp** came out wrong. This allows you to be very accurate and specific with what you said. It also takes away some of the pressure of “thinking on your feet” as, when you think of a better way to say something, you can redact the testimony.
In short, the Senate way of letting you review your transcript is a wonderful advantage to you. That is unless you’re lying ?
July 26th, 2007 at 3:32 pmSnooper - You’re right: it is up to the sitting president’s discretion unless the firings take place for political reasons, e.g. to influence the outcome of an ongoing investigation. That is illegal. And that, according to the information that is slowly coming to light, seems to be what took place. If nothing illegal happened, why all the lying and stonewalling from the Bush administration?
July 26th, 2007 at 3:37 pm7) Because Bush says he didn’t have anything to do with firing the US attorneys. So, if he’s telling the truth, then who fired them and where did they get their authority to do it?
Comment by bilbobaggins — July 26, 2007 @ 3:27 pm
Further evidence that Bush is merely an empty suit. I wonder which is scarier — an evil president or a vacant one? If nothing else, perhaps the illegal shadow government may bubble to the surface, where it can be dealt with legally.
July 26th, 2007 at 3:40 pmA quick question; if Bush had nothing to do with the firings, then who did?, and how can he claim executive privilege for something he didn’t know about? Also, if the USAG’s do serve at the pleasure of the President, but he had nothing to do with it, then who went did fire them? Way to many loose ends here, that the wingnuts don’t seem to want to look to closely at.
July 26th, 2007 at 3:48 pmAnd yet, there is room for hope. As the noose tightens, the wingnuts kick and struggle. They are still dangerous but reality will trump bs.
July 26th, 2007 at 3:50 pmHonestly, anyone that still poses the question “what’s the big deal?” regarding the CheneyBush administration’s malfeasance is not to be taken seriously. Quibbling over ‘this’ minor detail or ‘that’ most recent abuse of justice misses the point entirely. We are being lead over a cliff by a criminal enterprise that has seized the reins of power by cheating and lying and stealing. The ‘opposition’ party hasn’t done much in the way of actually opposing the trampling of our Constitution with a handful of exceptions (Leahy and Conyers come to mind) and what little they’ve done has been nothing more than political noise.
Until they start impeachment hearings or start throwing these criminals in jail, the coup continues unimpeded.
It’s up to us fellow patriots.

Frankly, I don’t think you’ve been paying close enough attention to what these people have wrought and if you are, you’re being extremely dishonest. The Democrats have folded every damned hand they’ve been dealt (as much as the play on words makes me cringe since this is no fuc*ing game), it’s high time they played one, and won.
