Morning Docket: 11.21.18
* President Trump pardoned two turkeys yesterday with a stern warning that "House Democrats are likely to issue them both subpoenas," and that he couldn't "guarantee that [their] pardons won't be enjoined by the Ninth Circuit" since it "[a]lways happens." [NBC News] * In case you missed it, and we're pretty sure that's exactly what was intended here given the timing, President Trump submitted written answers to special counsel Robert Mueller's questions regarding Russian interference with the 2016 election. [Washington Post] * That's our Trumpy! He also wanted to order the Justice Department to prosecute his 2016 opponent Hillary Clinton and former FBI director James Comey, and reportedly only backed down when he heard he could be impeached. [New York Times] * Biglaw partners are leaving their firms to become judges, and it's because ex-White House counsel Don McGahn picked people just like him -- "traditional, conservative, blue-ribbon, white-shoe law firm lawyers" -- to fill vacancies. [American Lawyer] * Retired Justice Anthony Kennedy, a staunch defender of LGBT rights who helped keep a woman's right to choose legal, will receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Lawyer next month. Congratulations, Your Honor! [American Lawyer] * Seattle University School of Law has suspended its externship program with ICE after students signed a petition stating that the agency goes against the school's mission to "empower[] leaders for a just and humane world."
