  • Testimonial Immunity Before Congress of the Former Counsel to the President
    (Slip Opinion) Testimonial Immunity Before Congress of the Former Counsel to the President The immunity of the President’s immediate advisers from compelled congressional testimony on matters related to their official responsibilities has long been recognized and arises from the fundamental workings of the separation of powers. This immunity applies to former senior advisers such as the former White House Counsel. According- ly, the former Counsel is not legally required to appear and testify about matters relat- ed to his official duties as Counsel to the President. The President does not waive an adviser’s immunity from compelled congressional testimony by authorizing disclosure of any particular information. The disclosure’s impact on executive privilege does not ultimately bear on any underlying immunity from compelled testimony. Because Congress may not constitutionally compel the former Counsel to testify about his official duties, he may not be civilly or criminally penalized for following a presiden- tial directive not to appear. The same rationale applies equally to an exercise of inher- ent contempt powers against a senior aide who has complied with a presidential direc- tion that he not provide testimony to a congressional committee. May 20, 2019 MEMORANDUM FOR THE COUNSEL TO THE PRESIDENT On April 22, 2019, the Committee on the Judiciary of the House of Representatives subpoenaed Donald F. McGahn II, the former Counsel to the President, to testify about matters described in the report of Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller, III. You have asked whether Mr. McGahn is legally required to appear. We provide the same answer that the Department of Justice has repeat- edly provided for nearly five decades: Congress may not constitutionally compel the President’s senior advisers to testify about their official duties.

    Brennan Center for Justice At New York University School of Law Washington, D.C. Office 1140 Connecticut Ave. NW, Suite 1150 Washington, D.C. 20036 Phone 202.249.7190 Fax 202.223.2683 MEMORANDUM FROM: Victoria Bassetti, Fellow, Brennan Center for Justice TO: Interested Parties DATE: April 11, 2018 RE: DOJ ORDER OF SUCCESSION If President Donald Trump wanted to fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller he would have to get the Attorney General to do so. By law, only the Attorney General can fire Mueller. The President himself cannot do so. In the wake of Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ recusal from the matter, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein has been the Acting Attorney General regarding Russian interference with the 2016 election and related matters. Rosenstein appointed Mueller as Special Counsel on May 17, 2017.1 He did so under his statutory authority to “specially appoint[]” an attorney to “conduct any kind of legal proceeding.” In addition, he indicated that Mueller would be bound by regulations governing Special Counsels. 2 Those regulations provide that only the Attorney General can only fire the Special Counsel for cause and must do so in writing. They provide: The Special Counsel may be disciplined or removed from office only by the personal action of the Attorney General. The Attorney General may remove a Special Counsel for misconduct, dereliction of duty, incapacity, conflict of interest, or for other good cause, including violation of Departmental policies. The Attorney General shall inform the Special Counsel in writing of the specific reason for his or her removal.3 In addition, since Mueller was appointed pursuant to a statutory provision, Supreme Court precedent holds that he can only be removed by the department head (i.e.

Vatican appoints new bishop to Diocese of Tucson Bishop of Diocese of the Diocese of Salina in Kansas becomes seventh Bishop of Tucson; Installation Mass Nov. 29 Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has transferred Bishop Edward Joseph Weisenburger from the Diocese of Salina to the Diocese of Tucson, Ariz. The Holy See made the announcement today in Rome. Weisenburger was notified last week by the Apostolic Nuncio, Archbishop Pierre Christophe, that Pope Francis was entrusting to him the pastoral care of the good people of the Diocese of Tucson. Bishop Gerald F. Kicanas, sixth Bishop of Tucson, submitted his resignation in accord with Church law after having reached his 75th birthday. Following today, he will serve as the administrator of the Diocese until Weisenburger's installation. Weisenburger's appointment comes more than a year after Kicanas' offered his retirement. Bishop Kicanas said, “We are blessed that the Holy Father Pope Francis has appointed as our seventh Bishop in the Diocese of Tucson, a caring and loving pastor and shepherd for our community. He will walk with us, listen to us and stand up for us. His many gifts will provide the pastoral leadership we need. He will be a collaborative worker with diocesan personnel, interfaith leaders and all those with responsibility in this vast diocese of 43,000 square miles.” Weisenburger served as a priest of the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City for almost 25 years.

Can companies use it? the dawn of 2019, Americans got more than just a recalibrated class of representatives. They got an unofficial invitation to Congress Camp. They got a tour of the hidden tunnels that weave beneath Capitol Hill, flipped through the freshman yearbook, and learned the contents of the new member swag bag. They got to visit the darkened Supreme Court chambers where the Dred Scott case was heard, and sit in on the highly anticipated congressional office lottery.

    Sooner Catholic Serving the People of the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City Volume 37, Number 1 * January 9, 2011 Welcome Archbishop Paul S. Coakley Fourth Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City By Ray Dyer The Sooner Catholic OKLAHOMA CITY — Archbishop-elect Paul S. Coakley said serving God in the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City will not be noticeably different than serving Him in the Diocese of Salina, where he has served as bishop for the past six years. The “challenges will be similar,” said the archbishop-elect on Dec. 16 when he was introduced as the suc- cessor to the retiring Archbishop Eusebius J. Beltran. Installation Feb. 11 in Edmond, St. John the Baptist “The Diocese of Salina is a rural area, very similar to the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City,” Archbishop-elect Coakley said. “The greatest difference will be the large urban area of Oklahoma City. I did not have this kind of urban setting in Salina.” He said both areas deal with aging popu- lations, agriculture-based economies and families and individuals search- ing for a new and better life. One thing that won’t change, the new archbishop-elect said, would be his time behind the steering wheel. “As in Kansas, I’ll be doing a lot of driving,” he said, referring to Archbishop-elect Paul S.
