  • Officials Say Flynn Discussed Sanctions
    Officials say Flynn discussed sanctions The Washington Post February 10, 2017 Friday, Met 2 Edition Copyright 2017 The Washington Post All Rights Reserved Distribution: Every Zone Section: A-SECTION; Pg. A08 Length: 1971 words Byline: Greg Miller;Adam Entous;Ellen Nakashima Body Talks with Russia envoy said to have occurred before Trump took office National security adviser Michael Flynn privately discussed U.S. sanctions against Russia with that country's ambassador to the United States during the month before President Trump took office, contrary to public assertions by Trump officials, current and former U.S. officials said. Flynn's communications with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak were interpreted by some senior U.S. officials as an inappropriate and potentially illegal signal to the Kremlin that it could expect a reprieve from sanctions that were being imposed by the Obama administration in late December to punish Russia for its alleged interference in the 2016 election. Flynn on Wednesday denied that he had discussed sanctions with Kislyak. Asked in an interview whether he had ever done so, he twice said, "No." On Thursday, Flynn, through his spokesman, backed away from the denial. The spokesman said Flynn "indicated that while he had no recollection of discussing sanctions, he couldn't be certain that the topic never came up." Officials said this week that the FBI is continuing to examine Flynn's communications with Kislyak. Several officials emphasized that while sanctions were discussed, they did not see evidence that Flynn had an intent to convey an explicit promise to take action after the inauguration. Flynn's contacts with the ambassador attracted attention within the Obama administration because of the timing.

  • Putin, Trump and Democracy's Slippery Slope Toward Oligarchy
    Putin, Trump and Democracy’s Slippery Slope Toward Oligarchy Acknowledgments The Common Cause Education Fund is the research and public education affiliate of Common Cause, founded in 1970 by John Gardner. Common Cause is a nonpartisan, grassroots organization dedicated to upholding the core values of American democracy. We work to create open, honest and accountable government that serves the public interest; promote equal rights, opportunity, and representation for all; and empower all people to make their voices heard in the political process. This report was produced with the support of small dollar contributions from Americans who believe in transparent, open, and accountable govern- ment, as well as generous grants from the WhyNot Initiative and the Philip & Janice Levin Foundation. It was written by Joe Maschman, a Common Cause legal fellow, and edited by Paul Seamus Ryan, vice president for policy and litigation; Scott Swenson, vice president for communications, Susannah Goodman, director of voting integrity; and Dale Eisman, senior writer/editor. The authors and editors wish to express our thanks to Kerstin Diehn for her design and to Common Cause President Karen Hobert Flynn for her guidance and encouragement in the preparation of this report. Introduction Americans are more united than those who benefit from division want us to believe. Republicans, Democrats, and Independents largely agree that registration and voting should be secure, modern, and convenient, and that all eligible people should be encouraged to vote. As voters, we recognize that the more people who participate in our elections, the better it is for our democracy, making it more likely that the representatives who are elected will listen to the people.

  • The Ethics Resistance
    The Ethics Resistance BRIAN SHEPPARD* ABSTRACT Legal ethics complaints have been ®led against several of the high-ranking lawyers in the Trump Administration, often in their home states. While individ- ual complaints have caught the public eye, the collective movement to use legal ethics to resist Trumpism has escaped attention. This is not altogether surpris- ing: legal ethics rules have not historically been an attractive tool for political change. Perhaps, desperate times have called for desperate measures. This ªEthics Resistanceº will face signi®cant opposing forces. Legal ethics complaints seldom result in punishment. Further, the agencies that are asked to investigate these high-pro®le and controversial matters will not be eager to leave their comfort zones; they are accustomed to complaints from clients who are unhappy with their lawyers over straightforward matters like unreturned phone calls or high fees. There will also be loud dissenting voices from those who will see the movement as the weaponization of a tool designed for the mod- est task of lawyer self-governance. Finally, the complaints will have to navigate between powerful constitutional protections regarding lawyer speech and fed- eral power. But we should not dismiss this movement simply because it is unusual or challenging. The wisdom of the Ethics Resistance can only be judged after we understand its distinctive qualities and consider how they further or hinder our legal, institutional, and pragmatic interests. In this Article, I undertake that analysis and conclude that the movement has the capacity to be legally permissible, institutionally sound, and prudent. I fur- ther offer a list of best practices for future complaints.

    AP PHOTO/SUSAN WALSH AP PHOTO/SUSAN Donald Trump and Criminal Conspiracy Law A RICO Explainer By John Norris and Carolyn Kenney December 2017 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Donald Trump and Criminal Conspiracy Law A RICO Explainer By John Norris and Carolyn Kenney December 2017 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 4 Trump and RICO 11 Activities prior to the presidential campaign, particularly complex financial crimes 22 Coordination with Russian, or Russian-supported, entities during the campaign 27 Obstruction of justice and other areas of concern since the election 32 Other post-election matters 34 Conclusion 38 About the authors 39 Endnotes Introduction and summary The scope of investigations by Special Counsel Robert Mueller and others into the activities of President Donald Trump, his campaign, and businesses is sweeping. Mueller is tasked with investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and any potential collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians. This mandate gives the special counsel ample imperative to study an array of links between Trump, Trump associates, and Russia, in a list of concerns that seems to grow by the day. The pace and intensity of this investigation was only highlighted by the recent release of the indictment and guilty plea of Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos, who admitted under oath lying to the FBI about his multiple contacts with Russians during the campaign, and acknowledged that the Russians informed him that they possessed “thousands of emails” hacked from Democrats well before any public knowledge of the fact.1 Papadopoulos admitted that he shared information about his Russian contacts and desire to broker meetings with the Russians with his Trump campaign supervisors.
