A tweet posted by #EdMartin, #Trump’s nominee and the current interim acting US Attorney for the District of Columbia [& a #Jan6 advocate], raised alarms among observers across the partisan political aisle Monday afternoon for his comments about the president’s ongoing dispute with the #AssociatedPress.
The Trump admin has barred #AP reporters from the Oval Office, Air Force One, & other official White House events because they use the correct geographical designation the #GulfOfMexico.
On Fri, the #AP filed suit in the US Dist Court for DC against 3 #Trump admin ofcls….The complaint specifically objected to the WH ordering the AP to use specific words in reporting & stated it had filed suit “to vindicate its rights to the editorial independence guaranteed by the United States Constitution & to prevent the executive branch from coercing journalists to report the news using only government-approved language.”
#EdMartin’s tweet, posted by the official account for the US Attorney in DC, said:
“As President Trumps’ (sic) lawyers, we are proud to fight to protect his leadership as our President & we are vigilant in standing against entities like the AP that refuse to put America first.”
US Attys are NOT the president’s lawyers. They work for the American people & take an oath to the Constitution & to support the laws of the United States.
