ICYMI: Judge Michael Luttig spoke powerfully at last monthโ€™s Summit about the Supreme Court.

โ€œThe only power it has, and the only power it has to wield on behalf of the American people, is the power of its persuasion.โ€

Today, that principle matters more than ever.

We commend Mr. Siebert, and the scores of federal prosecutors before him, many of them our fellow conservatives, who had the principles and the courage to choose honorable resignation rather than disgraceful complicity in assaults on the rule of law.

The Society for the Rule of Law Institute condemns the presidentโ€™s treatment of U.S. Attorney Erik Siebert, his weaponization of the Justice Department, and those attorneys in his service who have betrayed their oaths and ethical obligations to enable this conduct.
