Prof. Kitrosser Quoted in Washington Post About Executive Privilege

Professor Kitrosser was quoted at length in a Washington Post article about the Trump Administration’s use of executive privilege. Kitrosser was quoted as saying, among other things, that “This is not the first administration to try to get the benefits of executive privilege without formally invoking it,” but that “[w]hat is new and really troubling ... is that we’ve seen it quickly become routine that the administration sends out a witness who says, ‘I categorically can’t discuss this whole set of really important issues because I want to preserve the ability of the president to assert executive privilege.’ And then there’s no follow up by either the administration or Congress.”
