Longtime career prosecutor and #doj aide Mythili Raman will become acting chief of the Criminal Division Friday once Lanny Breuer leaves.
@johnson_carrie Does SHE want to prosecute banksters? Any word on when a new AAG will be nominated? Or is that on judge nominating sched?

@emptywheel Lotsa vacancies @ DOJ now, they may be content to leave her in acting role. She's well respected in the bldg/no hint about banks -
@johnson_carrie@emptywheel meant she could stay acting for a while but they'll eventually nominate someone this year. -
@johnson_carrie Btw, any clue abt the back story to why DOJ made the AMAZINGLY STUPID decision to blow off HJC today? -
@emptywheel don't you think the ongoing ACLU FOIA cases is one of the biggest reasons for the no-show?@jameeljaffer -
@johnson_carrie And I repeat, again. White paper cites Brennan speech that says if we don't presumptively release in FOIA, terrorists win.
