US court gives attorney Pirro four more days to release Tinubu drug files
VIA VON BATTEN-MATTEN-YORK L.C
BREAKING NEWS: President @realDonaldTrump-appointed U.S. Attorney, the amazing and no-nonsense Jeanine Pirro (@USAttyPirro), has initiated action in federal court to comply with the @uscourts orders concerning the release of @TheJusticeDept, @FBI, and @DEAHQ records relating to drug-trafficking allegations against Nigerian President Bola Tinubu (@officialABAT).
U.S. Attorney Pirro requested an additional 10 days, but Judge Beryl Howell granted only four additional days, until August 21, noting that this case has already been pending for more than three years.
We deeply appreciate U.S. Attorney #Pirro and the DOJ’s renewed motivation to release these documents, and we agree with Judge Howell. This case has been pending for three years. The time to release the #Tinubu drug-trafficking files is now.
As President #Trump has indicated, our shared interests with #Nigeria do not mean supporting an alleged drug trafficker.
