“Trump DOJ fought the law, and the law won”

from Deadline: White House · host Nicolle Wallace, Andrew Weissmann, Ken Dilanian, Julian Barnes, Robert Armstrong, Frank Kendall, Missy Ryan, Margaret Donovan

Nicolle Wallace covers the breaking news that a judge has derailed U.S. Attorney for DC Jeanine Pirro’s case against Federal Chair Jerome Powell. Judge Boasberg wrote that the DOJ was trying to use this case against Powell to pressure him to vote for lower interest rates or to pressure him to resign, and that there was little to no evidence presented to charge Powell with an actual crime. Later, Nicolle covers new reporting that suggests that the Trump administration underestimated the consequences of Iran retaliating to strikes by closing the Strait of Hormuz, which has caused gas prices to soar nationwide.
