Bombshell Text Exchange Between Prosecutor Lindsey Halligan and Reporter Anna Bower

Discover why a sitting US Attorney sending unsolicited, high-stakes messages to a journalist covering her own case is causing an ethics firestorm within the DOJ.

Short Summary

  • A sitting US Attorney, Lindsey Halligan, initiated an unauthorized text exchange with reporter Anna Bower regarding the ongoing Leticia James prosecution.
  • Halligan aggressively contested Bower’s reporting, which summarized grand jury testimony, without establishing ground rules for the conversation.
  • The Department of Justice (DOJ) distanced itself, calling the reporter a "tattletail," suggesting internal disapproval of the contact.
  • This incident highlights high-risk ethical breaches when prosecutors discuss ongoing, sensitive investigations involving grand jury material directly with the media.
  • The discussion examines the stringent journalistic process necessary for verifying source identity and the professional consequences prosecutors face for such unsecured interactions.

Description

When an inexperienced, newly appointed top prosecutor leading Trump’s vindictive prosecution plan against his political critics, slips into the direct messages of a reporter to chat about the prosecution of NY AG Tish James, you have the makings of a bombshell new investigative report by Anna Bower of LawFare. Anna joins Michael Popok to brief our audience on the series of messages, likely not approved by the DOJ, to Anna, which form the basis of her new eye-popping article “Anna, this is Lindsey” and what it says about the DOJ (who called Anna a “tattle tale” (?!?)) and Pam Bondi’s slip on the grip of power.

This is John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavenaugh, and Amy Barrett fault. Almost everything that goes wrong is because they're all cowards.

Well the Attorney is absolutely dumb as hell. I absolutely can not understand why we as a country haven’t removed this person from the position by any means necessary.

Trump doesn’t care about the case as much as the initial indictments. He just wants retribution and attention. Thanks !

I am an embarrassed retired military veteran living in the US. Please no more clowns! Get all the crooks out and in prison. The USA is the laughing stock of the world now. I do not know if the damage he has caused can ever be repaired in my life or the life of my children
