Geoffrey S. Berman, the top federal prosecutor in Manhattan, agrees to step down after the Trump administration fired him. Attorney General William Barr initially said Berman resigned. Deputy U.S. Attorney Audrey Strauss will fill the post temporarily. https://t.co/9qrNtIrIx8

We need to know why Trump and Barr wanted Berman out so badly. Congress must immediately investigate Berman's firing. We cannot stand idly by as this administration continues to use the Justice Department to do Trump's political bidding. https://t.co/0vlO0aT6mF

House Dems inviting Berman to testify is fine.

But the guy they really need to hear from is William Barr. Subpoena, give him one day, and if he refuses, go right to court. Game time is over @RepJerryNadler.

— Elie Honig (@eliehonig) June 20, 2020

And by not going quietly, Berman has earned Barr and himself an invitation to testify before Congress about whatever it is Barr and Trump fear.

The thing that makes me doubt that that Barr can really help Trump steal the election is that it took them both three tries in the last 24 hours to fire a US attorney.

Trump was scheduled to address the overflow "crowd," but it looks like the campaign is leaning toward canceling it for fear of angering him if there aren't as many people outside as expected. https://t.co/Ebw8OGKzZz
