Q Research General #18621: And They All Fall Down
Another Top Biden Official Resigns Amid Expulsion Of Haitian Migrants At Southern Border
A second official within the Biden administration has resigned amid controversy over the handling of Haitian migrants flooding to the southern border.
Harold Koh, the only political appointee on the State Department's legal team and a former longtime advisor to President Barack Obama's State Department, announced he was resigning and panned the Biden administration in a memo circulated on Oct. 2. In the memo, obtained by Politico, Koh decries the Biden team's use of Title 42 to expel Haitian migrants from the United States as "illegal" and "inhumane."
Title 42 is a public health provision allowing the government to prevent the introduction of new individuals in the U.S. during a public health crisis. The law was first used under the Trump administration to expel tens of thousands of migrants at the southern border, and the order has since been extended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under the Biden administration.
Koh described the use of Title 42 as "not worthy of this Administration that I so strongly support," Politico reported. "I believe this Administration's current implementation of the Title 42 authority continues to violate our legal obligation not to expel or return ("refouler") individuals who fear persecution, death, or torture, especially migrants fleeing from Haiti."
"Lawful, more humane alternatives plainly exist," the State Department advisor continued. "[O]ur actions and approaches regarding Afghan refugees stand in stark contrast to the continuing use of Title 42 to rebuff the pleas of thousands of Haitians and myriad others arriving at the Southern Border who are fleeing violence, persecution, or torture."
Koh was previously a State Department legal advisor during the Obama administration from 2009-2013. Koh is leaving the Biden team to accept a job at Oxford University, and his departure has been long-planned, an administration official told Politico.

DID DJT 45 declare war while he was the obvious POTUS
What is really going on today?
Who really is in control?
>Marines in particular are deployable at POTUS' discretion without Congressional approval. Military Intelligence (MI) is a discipline that uses information collection and analysis approaches to provide guidance and direction to commanders in support of their decisions. The reason to do around the 3-letter agencies (CIA, FBI et al) is that they have been infiltrated by bad actors who aren't acting in the best interests of the US. Those agencies also have civilian staff, more secrecy and politically-motivated missions, which lead to too much leaking and input from politicians. POTUS has the ultimate authority over our branches of military without approval conditions unless over 90 days in wartime conditions, due to the War Powers Act.

EXPLAINER
What War Powers Does the President Have?
SEPT 13, 20016:37 PM
President George W. Bush characterizes the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon as "acts of war." What legal and constitutional powers does the president have to declare war or to launch a military action against the terrorists?
Declaring War
The United States has not formally declared war since World War II. Under Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, Congress has sole power "to declare war [and] grant letters of marque and reprisal." But Article II, Section 2 provides that "The president shall be Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States." While it's clear that the Framers intended for Congress alone to declare war, presidents don't always check with Congress before acting. After President Harry Truman bypassed Congress to go to war in Korea, presidents have paid almost no attention to the constitutional requirements.
Shoot To Kill?
Executive Order 12,333 prohibits assassination. This does not have the force of law but is merely a presidential pronouncement that can be repealed, modified, or suspended at any time by the president himself. As of last night, Congress was openly discussing ending the moratorium on assassinations.
International Law
The U.N. charter was ratified by the Senate, and as such the president is bound by its terms. Nevertheless, the attacks on New York and Virginia are clearly war crimes under the U.N. definition. Moreover, Article 51 of the U.N. charter provides for the "inherent right ... of self-defense if an armed attack occurs." NATO also took steps toward approving military action yesterday, by invoking Article 5 of the NATO charter, authorizing the use of force if it's determined that this was attack from abroad against the United States.

Roger Stone case people that dropped the case:
Aaron Zelinsky - is an attorney on loan from the District of Maryland. Before Zelinsky's appointment to the Mueller team, he worked under the man who appointed Mueller special counsel - Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. Zelinsky worked as an assistant U.S. attorney under Rosenstein during the latter's time as U.S. Attorney in Maryland. While in Maryland, Zelinsky earned an award for Excellence in Prosecution of Organized Crime. Additionally, Zelinsky has clerked for retired Justice John Paul Stevens and Justice Anthony Kennedy of the Supreme Court. Harold Koh, formerly of the State Department, has said he brought Zelinsky in as a special assistant at the State Department, where he worked the cases of Americans held hostage abroad. Koh calls Zelinsky "an incredible team leader."
Two FBI veterans have left the team since its inception.

Always Yale.
Karlan earned her B.A. degree in history from Yale University in 1980, as well as an M.A. degree in history and J.D. degree in 1984.[3] At Yale Law School, she served as an Article and Book Reviews editor of the Yale Law Journal.[4]
After graduating law school, Karlan worked as a law clerk for former U.S. District Judge Abraham David Sofaer of the Southern District of New York from 1984 to 1985. She went on to clerk for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun the following year. In a 1995 oral history with Harold Koh, Blackmun revealed that his dissent in Bowers v. Hardwick had been written primarily by Karlan. He said that Karlan "did a lot of very effective writing, and I owe a lot to her and her ability in getting that dissent out. She felt very strongly about it, and I think is correct in her approach to it. I think the dissent is correct."[5]

Harold Koh Harold Hongju Koh (Hangul: ???; hanja: ???; born December 8, 1954) is an American lawyer and legal scholar.
He served as the Legal Adviser of the Department of State. He was nominated to this position by President Barack Obama on March 23, 2009,[1][2]
<NOTE: When HRC22 was SOS
and confirmed by the Senate on June 25, 2009.[3] He departed as the State Department's legal adviser in January 2013,[4]
<NOTE: When HRC22 left SOS position.
In public service, Koh previously served in the United States Department of State during the Clinton administration as Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor.
In academia, he served as a member of the faculty of Yale Law School, and later as its Dean.
>/end quote/
Seems to me after reading above, the buck should stop at Harold Koh for the moment since he is so intimately connected with HRC22 during her time as First Witch under her Hubby42 and SOS under 18=[R]enegade44.
Again, I'm all for wild autistic leaps of intuition (BO can attest in spades), but there's a reason Occam made it a Razor.

Clinton email lawsuit zeroes in on Kennedy, Koh
By JOSH GERSTEIN 06/17/2016 06:22 PM EDT
A conservative group pressing for more answers about Hillary Clinton's private email set-up is training its fire on two of her former aides: Undersecretary of State for Management Patrick Kennedy and former State Department Legal Adviser Harold Koh.
In a court filing Friday, Judicial Watch complained that Kennedy and Koh were aware of Clinton's use of a private email account, but appear not to have ensured it was searched for records responsive to a Freedom of Information Act request the watchdog group filed in 2012.
"Defendant … never outright disputes the allegations that senior State Department managers-including two top officials with primary responsibility for records preservation, Legal Advisor Harold Koh and Under Secretary for Management Patrick Kennedy-knew that Secretary Clinton used the non-state.gov 'clintonemail' records system for government business, nor that they knew that litigation seeking documents from those records was pending in this Court," Judicial Watch attorney Chris Federal wrote.
Judicial Watch's claim that Kennedy and Koh should have made sure Clinton's private account was searched is based largely on the fact that emails from Clinton's account show both men in correspondence with her at her private "clintonemail.com" address
