Chris Van Hollen: “The United States cannot and must not default on its debt and violate the full faith and credit of the United States.”

Last night’s ruling from a federal judge made plain: the Administration’s efforts are in clear violation of Congressional intent.

It is unacceptable that Amb. Huckabee and his staff continue to cover up and block access to essential information about these killings.

We must not forget that a federal judge has already made clear what we have long known: the Trump Administration’s Department of Justice is engaged in a vindictive prosecution against Kilmar.

This should chill every American to the bone. When the rights of one are threatened, the rights of all are at risk.
