Waters of Justice are Warming: DOJ Won't Help Mo Brooks in Suit brought by Swalwell for Insurrection


Listen Later

When it comes to the question of if and when Donald Trump will be held accountable, it may be too early to conclude the tide is turning. But given a half-dozen recent legal developments, the waters of justice undeniably are warming. Those stories include:
- Both the House of Representatives General Counsel and the Department of Justice REJECT Mo Brooks plea for help in the suit that Rep. Eric Swalwell and others filed against him for inciting the January 6 attack on the US Capitol
- DOJ's decision in the Swalwell/Brooks case is important foreshadowing of how they will resolve the identical issue regarding plea by Trump to be protected by the DOJ
- Trump's longtime friend and Chairman of his Inaugural Committee, Tom Barrack is indicted and may very well decide to cooperate with prosecutors in a bid to save himself
- Trump's Chief Financial Officer, Allen Weisselberg, stands indicted
- The Trump Organization stands indicted for, among other things, a 15-year-long criminal scheme to defraud in the first degree
- A House of Representatives Select Committee is conducting a legitimate investigation into what lead to the attack on the US Capitol
- Last but not least, a Texas Republican endorsed by Donald Trump just lost his bid for office in Texas, suggesting that Trump's influence is fading, if not outright failing.
Indeed, the waters of justice are warming.
