"To describe the Government’s Motion to Dismiss as irregular would be a study in
understatement. In the United States, Presidents do not orchestrate pressure campaigns to get the
Justice Department to drop charges against defendants who have pleaded guilty—twice, before
two different judges—and whose guilt is obvious. And the Justice Department does not seek to
dismiss criminal charges on grounds riddled with legal and factual error, then argue that the
validity of those grounds cannot even be briefed to the Court that accepted the defendant’s guilty
plea. Nor does the Justice Department make a practice of attacking its own prior filings in a case,
as well as judicial opinions ruling in its favor, all while asserting that the normal rules should be
set aside for a defendant who is openly favored by the President.

Yet that is exactly what has unfolded here.
