Buzz: Obama’s Justice would indict Trump ‘in a minute’

It’s a good thing for former President Donald Trump that President Joe Biden didn’t bring former President Barack Obama’s top Justice Department team back.

Two top officials — former Attorney General Eric Holder and former Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer — said they would indict Trump on Jan. 6, 2021, riot charges.

Speaking at a book conference on Martha’s Vineyard, the question of charging Trump was put to Holder, who asked Breuer, sitting in the audience, “Lanny, would we bring this case?”

Breuer said to cheers from the liberal audience, “We would bring it in a minute.”

  • Our friends at the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled the first bobblehead of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who was sworn in as the 116th Supreme Court justice in late June. Hers is the first of more than a dozen others the museum plans to begin selling in December. “We are excited to release this bobblehead of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson,” National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum co-founder and CEO Phil Sklar said. “When the Senate voted to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson, history was made. We celebrate the momentous day in the 233-year history of the Supreme Court. In addition, we wanted to provide the public with the chance to collect bobbleheads representing the Supreme Court justices that have a very influential impact on our lives given their roles in our government and the impact their decisions have.”
  • Doug Emhoff, the second gentleman of the United States, traveled to Baltimore this week to highlight the administration’s climate action agenda by helping with an AmeriCorps tree-planting. In his typically cheerful way, the vice president’s hubby said that people can take control of vacant lots, such as the thousands littering Baltimore, to plant food. “We are reclaiming this vacant lot. You’re going to have a bunch of trees here. You’re going to have benches. You’re going to have water flowing through. So, this is part of an investment into all of our communities to make them healthier, safe, and you heard about urban farming so we can eliminate the food deserts that we have in some of our communities,” he said.
