Dear Signatories, Happy New Year! Since our last update on December 15th, 2017 Donald Trump and his administration have provided us with four additional grounds for censure, including the following: 27. After having acknowledged in November, 2017, that as President he was “not supposed to be involved with the Justice Department,” in connection with its investigations, he told the New York Times on December 28, 2017, that “I have absolute right to do what I want to do with the Justice Department.” 28. Telling the press on December 15, 2017, that “I don’t want to talk about pardons for Michael Flynn yet. We’ll see what happens,” which may be construed as a violation of 18 U.S.C. 1512 (b), which declares: “Whoever...corruptly persuades another person, or attempts to-influence..or prevent the testimony of any person, in an official proceeding...shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.” Thus, Trump may have been signaling to Flynn that how, and whether, he testified before a grand jury or otherwise in the current Mueller investigation would influence Trump regarding pardoning Flynn. 29. Threatening North Korea by “tweeting” that he had “a Nuclear Button” that is “ much bigger and more powerful” than North Korea’s “and [his] Button works!” 30. Demanding that an author and publisher cease publishing a book critical of him, and demanding a retraction and apology from them, thereby seeking to impose a prior restraint upon them, and “chilling” them in their exercise of their First Amendment rights.
