The gun crime is unconstitutional
David Weiss was ineligible to be appointed Special Counsel
Selective and vindictive prosecution
Motion for evidentiary hearing
Submitted December 12:
My general impression of this — which I’ll write at length tomorrow is that the diversion agreement argument is strong, they’ve argued a novel separation of powers argument about Congress. But I don’t think they’ve gotten to where they need to on selective and vindictive.
I don’t the Special Counsel argument is persuasive at all, though it’s an example where Lowell might get Congress to grasp on the filing (which argues Weiss’ appointment violates the Appropriation Clause).
