In a piece for Just Security’s “Coverage of the Trump Administration’s Executive Actions” series, CERL Executive Board member Stuart Gerson explains how the President is weaponizing federal law enforcement, the Department of Justice, and the judiciary for his own personal gains, and how his broad immunity will continue to shield him from prosecution. 

Stuart Gerson is Member of the Firm at Epstein Becker Green, former Acting Attorney General of the United States, and Founding Member of Checks & Balances. He is also a member of the CERL Executive Board. Read his bio here.
