The Trump Justice Department has again failed to get a new indictment against New York Attorney General Letitia James, with a grand jury declining Thursday to return charges, according to two sources familiar with the presentation.

The failure follows another grand jury rejection last Thursday and a dismissal the week before that of James’ charges on the grounds that the prosecutor behind them, Lindsey Halligan, was unlawfully appointed. The dismissal left open the opportunity to bring new charges with a lawful prosecutor.

In a statement, James’ lawyer Abbe Lowell said, “For the second time in seven days, the Department of Justice has failed in its clear attempt to fulfill President Trump’s political vendetta against Attorney General James.”

He said the “unprecedented rejection makes even clearer that this case should never have seen the light of day. Career prosecutors who knew better refused to bring it, and now two different grand juries in two different cities have refused to allow these baseless charges to be brought. In addition, a federal judge threw out the first indictment, pointing to the illegal appointment of a prosecutor put in place to carry out the President’s revenge. This case already has been a stain on this Department’s reputation and raises troubling questions about its integrity. Any further attempt to revive these discredited charges would be a mockery of our system of justice.”

This isn’t the first case where the Trump DOJ has pressed forward despite grand jury resistance. In the case of Sidney Reid in Washington, the DOJ failed a whopping three times to obtain a felony indictment before reducing the case to a misdemeanor — and then losing that case at trial. A D.C. jury similarly acquitted sandwich thrower Sean Dunn of a misdemeanor after grand jurors declined to approve a felony indictment against him.

The administration had said it would appeal the Nov. 24 ruling by U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie that rejected Halligan’s appointment and dismissed the charges against James and former FBI director James Comey. MS NOW previously reported on DOJ’s plan to seek another indictment of James, as well as the DOJ potentially seeking new charges against Comey, too.
