Report: Nancy Pelosi Told White House to Consult Laurence Tribe in CDC Power GrabJoel B. Pollak 8 Aug 2021
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi told President Joe Biden’s White House to seek help from left-wing legal scholar Laurence Tribe in trying to find a way around the Supreme Court’s rejection of an eviction moratorium by the CDC.
According to the Washington Post, citing Punchbowl News, Pelosi advised the White House to seek Tribe’s help. Tribe also advised Democrats to delay delivering the articles of impeachment to the Senate against Trump in 2020, the better to gain leverage over the Republican-controlled Senate for procedural concessions. Tribe, who had pushed for Trump’s impeachment before he was inaugurated, provided legal advice to the Democrats throughout the failed impeachment.
In June, the Court narrowly left the CDC’s eviction moratorium in place, pending its expiration. But Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who cast the deciding vote, said that the CDC lacked the authority to act without congressional approval.
Last Monday, the White House sent presidential adviser Gene Sperling to the briefing room to tell journalists that there was no legal or constitutional way for the administration to extend the moratorium, which had expired on July 31.
