The New York Times had a big article Thursday on the release of a memoir by Geoffrey Berman about his tenure leading the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York. The book, called Holding the Line, was released this week. (I was an SDNY prosecutor for many years and overlapped with Berman when he was a prosecutor in the early Nineties. I don’t know him well.)
The memoir is the latest salvo against the Trump Justice Department, an odd crusade in light of that department’s (a) controversial appointment of a special counsel to investigate the then president, and (b) key role in dispelling Trump’s “stolen election” balderdash.
