Reason for Optimism: Biden Rejects Trump's Executive Privilege Claim, Trump "Subverted" Constitution

from Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

President Joe Biden rejected Donald Trump's request that the White House invoke executive privilege to hide from Congress and the American people his (Trump's) misconduct in connection with the insurrection. But it's what Joe Biden said in announcing that decision that should instill confidence in the American that President Biden is intent on holding Donald Trump accountable for his misconduct. In a statement delivered by his White House Counsel Dana Remus, President Biden said, "Congress is examining an assault on our Constitution and democratic institutions provoked and fanned by those sworn to protect them," in other words, by Donald Trump. In rejecting Trumps' executive privilege request, President Biden conveyed that Trump's conduct "reflects a clear and apparent effort to subvert the Constitution itself." Here is why the words chose by President Biden are so important and represent an optimistic sign of things to come.
