BREAKING: DOJ files a motion to recuse Judge Beryl Howell from the Perkins Coie case — shortly after one of the three lawyers on the case, Terry Henry, withdraws.
DOJ alleges that Howell has shown "partiality against and animus towards the President," signed by Chad Mizelle and Richard Lawson.

Thank you for reporting this, and it is, indeed, breaking news. The motion, at least AFAIK, has no basis in fact or appearance
By their capitalization ye shall know them.
But also, "Too many other courts are following the law as it exists, we can't afford for that to keep happening."
They want the courts to be "free from any suggestion of impartiality"
“When do we want it? - at trial!”
"Oh I'm sorry, editing mistake, I meant "partiality" or "must be impartial" I didn't mean to admit our actual position in the first sentence, my bad"
The need to curtail is free from any suggestion of impartiality or is it essential?
The need to recuse is, therefore, entirely obvious by your own admission of impartiality.
You ruled against us. You must therefore be removed. We cannot have impartiality in a court in which we want to win even though we are representing a government that violates the law.
You’re reading it exactly the way it was written.

May they reap all they deserve. 😉)
"Rule of Law" = animus.
Not.

Lawson had worked with Bondi at the America First Policy Institute before joining the Trump administration.
Henry received a DOJ lifetime service award in A.G. Garland's final awards in January.
ONE BONUS POINT if at least one bullet in your weekly 5-bullet email says, "Refused to comply with a judicial order"; TWO if it says "Pissed off a judge."
