Morning Docket: 06.12.17
* President Donald Trump will reportedly visit the Supreme Court later this week for Justice Neil Gorsuch's official investiture ceremony. Based on the president's prior behavior, it may only be a matter of time before he refers to his appointee as an "absolute disaster" whose "mind is shot." [USA Today] * Former U.S. attorney Preet Bharara, who was fired by President Trump after he was asked to remain in his post, says phone calls he received from Trump made in an effort to "cultivate some kind of relationship" made him uncomfortable. In response, a spokesman for Marc Kasowitz called Bharara a "resistance Democrat," and said "he deserved to be fired." [Washington Post] * In other news, Marc Kasowitz, who will likely be setting up an office on White House grounds where he can run President Trump's defense, has reportedly told White House aides to hold off on hiring their own lawyers -- a move that would only be in his client's interest, and against their own. [New York Times] * In defense to a lawsuit, the Justice Department has likened President Trump to George Washington (yup!), alleging that Trump isn't violating the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution by accepting payments for goods and services like hotel bills and golf club fees from foreign governments. [Bloomberg] * In the wake of former FBI director James Comey's tell-all appearance before the Senate Intelligence Committee, Attorney General Jeff Sessions will now have to testify himself on the ongoing probe into Russian's election interference. Hmm, what will the recused AG have to say for himself? [New York Times] * "It was really disgusting and really scary." Joseph Amico of Las Vegas was arrested after he allegedly called New York lawyer Douglas Wigdor a "n**ger lover" and threatened to blow up his firm. Wigdor is representing plaintiffs in a racial discrimination lawsuit against Fox News Channel. [New York Daily News] * Miguel A. Méndez, Stanford Law's first Latino professor, RIP. [Stanford News]
