US EditionTakeaways From White House Chief of Staff's Revealing Vanity Fair Interview
Defense lawyers cite Susie Wiles' Vanity Fair interview alleging DOJ retribution to claim vindictive prosecution in a sealed Tennessee case involving Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
- Earlier this month, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles sat for a Vanity Fair interview where she described President Donald Trump as having `an alcoholic's personality` and discussed DOJ retribution, with observers calling the remarks `stunningly candid`.
- Judge Waverly D. Crenshaw Jr. found a realistic likelihood of vindictiveness and allowed discovery, while the Trump DOJ has resisted by re-litigating the order, stonewalling documents and quashing subpoenas.
- DOJ produced 20-odd pages of internal documents, with a sealed Dec. 3 order citing Aakash Singh's leading role in the prosecution decision.
- In an overnight filing, Abrego Garcia's attorneys cited the Wiles interview and sought dismissal on vindictive-prosecution grounds, asking for an evidentiary hearing and sanctions against Gregory Bovino for prejudicial comments made Friday.
- The latest heavily-redacted filing in Tennessee indicates that sealed proceedings and filings, including Abrego Garcia's discovery fight, will likely be made public soon, clarifying key issues.
