This Day in Legal History: Woodrow Wilson Arrives in FranceOn December 13, 1918, President Woodrow Wilson arrived in France to negotiate the terms of peace to conclude World War I, becoming the first sitting U.S. president to travel to Europe. Wilson's presence marked a historic moment in international diplomacy, as he sought to champion his vision for a postwar world order based on his Fourteen Points. These principles emphasized self-determination, free trade, disarmament, and the establishment of a League of Nations to prevent future conflicts.Wilson joined the Allied leaders at the Paris Peace Conference, where complex negotiations would ultimately shape the Treaty of Versailles. The treaty included harsh reparations against Germany, redrew national borders across Europe, and officially created the League of Nations. While the League was Wilson's most cherished goal, the treaty and its terms faced intense scrutiny back in the United States.Despite Wilson's efforts to garner support, the U.S. Senate, led by Republicans skeptical of the treaty's implications, rejected it in 1920. Key concerns included the League's potential to entangle the U.S. in foreign conflicts without congressional approval. This decision prevented the United States from joining the League of Nations, a significant blow to Wilson's vision and to the League's influence as a global peacekeeping body. The treaty's rejection highlighted the tension between internationalism and isolationism in American foreign policy.Wilson's involvement in the treaty process nevertheless underscored the growing role of the United States in global affairs and set a precedent for presidential diplomacy on the world stage.Aaron Siri, a lawyer aligned with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has petitioned the FDA to revoke approval of the polio vaccine, challenging one of the most significant public health achievements in history. Siri, who has a long track record of opposing vaccines, argues that the polio vaccine, like others, lacks sufficient testing and transparency. His actions, including a request to pause distribution of 13 additional vaccines, align with the agenda of the Informed Consent Action Network, a nonprofit advocating for "medical freedom" and closely tied to Kennedy. Critics warn that such efforts undermine decades of progress in eradicating vaccine-preventable diseases.In the battle between children and polio, RFK Jr. has thrown his hat into the ring on the side of polio. Public health experts are alarmed by the potential consequences of withdrawing the polio vaccine, which has protected millions from paralysis and death. Recent polio cases in unvaccinated populations highlight the persistent threat of the virus, described by one expert as “an airplane ride away.”Siri's approach extends beyond polio, targeting the FDA's vaccine approval processes and inundating agencies with document requests that some view as an attempt to hinder their operations. Kennedy's consideration for health secretary in the incoming Trump administration raises fears that vaccine policy may shift dramatically. Critics argue that dismantling vaccine programs risks a resurgence of diseases that left children dead or in leg braces, a grim echo of past public health crises. Despite claims of merely seeking transparency and choice, Kennedy and Siri's actions are seen as a direct threat to public health infrastructure.RFK Jr.'s Lawyer Has Asked the FDA to Revoke Polio Vaccine Approval - The New York TimesWashington defense lawyers are preparing to represent Justice Department officials, prosecutors, and FBI agents who fear being targeted for investigations under Donald Trump's upcoming presidency. Lawyers report a surge in inquiries from current and former DOJ employees concerned about congressional scrutiny, criminal probes, or internal watchdog investigations as Trump vows to dismantle the so-called “deep state” and pursue individuals he perceives as politically disloyal. Though much remains uncertain, attorneys are advising federal workers on how to prepare for potential retaliation tied to politically sensitive cases. Some fear investigations from the DOJ's inspector general, which could harm careers without requiring courtroom evidence. High-profile threats, such as prosecuting Special Counsel Jack Smith, are seen as less likely due to the difficulty of meeting legal standards for criminal cases.Financial concerns loom large, as many DOJ employees cannot afford expensive legal defense. Discussions among attorneys have included providing pro bono or reduced-fee services to meet the anticipated demand. The nomination of Kash Patel as FBI director, who has openly advocated for firing and prosecuting certain federal employees, has intensified these preparations. Lawyers emphasize that these concerns are not paranoia, given public statements from Trump allies outlining plans to target DOJ personnel.Lawyers Prep to Defend DOJ Workforce From Trump-Directed ProbesA federal judge has ruled that Yintao “Roger” Yu, a former ByteDance executive suing the company for wrongful termination, engaged in serious misconduct during his lawsuit. Judge Susan Illston found that Yu fabricated a key witness, lied under oath during his deposition, and abused the judicial process. As a result, the court sanctioned Yu and ordered his claims to be resolved through arbitration rather than continuing in court.Yu, previously head of U.S. engineering for ByteDance, alleged he was fired for exposing the company's intellectual property theft and the Chinese Communist Party's influence on TikTok. He claimed TikTok suppressed pro-democracy content at the CCP's request. However, ByteDance presented evidence that Yu lied about signing arbitration agreements and fabricated a declaration from an alleged witness. The witness, a ByteDance HR employee, testified she never made the statements attributed to her.The judge stated Yu's actions caused delays, wasted court resources, and constituted egregious litigation misconduct. She denied Yu's attempt to withdraw his lawsuit after ByteDance exposed his alleged perjury, ruling that such behavior would further undermine the judicial process. The judgment forces Yu to resolve the case through private arbitration, as required by the disputed agreements he initially denied signing.ByteDance Whistleblower Abused Judicial Process, Faked EvidenceThe U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has reopened an investigation into Elon Musk's brain-chip startup, Neuralink, according to a letter shared by Musk on the social platform X (formerly Twitter). The letter, written by Musk's attorney Alex Spiro, was addressed to outgoing SEC Chair Gary Gensler and disclosed that Musk was given a 48-hour deadline to settle by paying an undisclosed monetary amount or face charges. However, the settlement demand is tied to the SEC's probe into Musk's $44 billion takeover of Twitter, not Neuralink.Musk and the SEC have a contentious history, including a 2018 lawsuit over Musk's statements about taking Tesla private, which was settled with a $20 million fine and other conditions. Neuralink has also been under scrutiny after lawmakers urged the SEC to investigate whether Musk misled investors about the safety of its brain implant technology. It remains uncertain how much traction the SEC will gain against Musk, especially given his growing political influence. Musk, who supported Donald Trump's recent presidential campaign with substantial financial contributions, is poised to play a significant role in shaping the regulatory landscape. Trump has appointed Musk to a task force for overhauling the U.S. government. Musk and his attorney have vowed to resist SEC pressure, stating they will not be "intimidated."SEC 'reopens' probe into Neuralink, Musk's lawyer says | Reuters This is a public episode.

With the nomination of the pro-crypto Paul Atkins to be the next SEC chair, the crypto industry is potentially facing a 180 from the agency. As co-chair of The Digital Chamber's Token Alliance initiative and a board member of Securitize, Atkins is not only pro-crypto, but also against the type of “regulation by enforcement” strategy of current Chair Gary Gensler.  In this episode, Cody Carbone, president at The Digital Chamber, explains why Atkins is likely to start reassessment of the agency's lawsuits against crypto firms, why Trump might break with protocol to fill one of the commissioner seats that would typically be filled by a Democrat, and who he thinks might make for a good “crypto czar.”  Show highlights: Why Cody that Atkins leading the SEC would be a massive transformational shift  What can be expected from Atkins given his prior experience What crypto cases might be dropped under his leadership Whether Atkins could provide rulemaking before Congress passes legislation Cody's hard criticism of Gary Gensler's modus operandi Why Cody thinks Trump could surprise people when it comes to replacing Democratic Cmr.

This Day in Legal History: WTC Bombers ConvictedOn November 12, 1997, Ramzi Yousef and two of his accomplices were convicted for their roles in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, marking a significant legal milestone in U.S. counterterrorism efforts. The bombing, which took place on February 26, 1993, involved a truck bomb detonated in the North Tower's underground parking garage, killing six people and injuring over a thousand. The attack was an early sign of the growing threat of international terrorism on American soil, with Yousef aiming to collapse one tower into the other to maximize casualties. Yousef, the principal architect of the attack, fled the country shortly afterward but was eventually captured in Pakistan in 1995. His trial underscored the challenges of prosecuting acts of terrorism under U.S. criminal law and introduced the public to federal strategies for dealing with international terrorists within the American justice system. Prosecutors successfully argued that Yousef's attack was part of a larger, ideologically driven campaign against the United States, setting a precedent for treating terrorism as a criminal offense rather than solely a military threat.The conviction of Yousef and his co-conspirators in a civilian court demonstrated the U.S. government's commitment to using its judicial system to address terrorism, despite criticisms from some who argued for military tribunals instead. Yousef was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole and was placed in the federal "supermax" facility in Colorado, where he remains to this day. This case highlighted the importance of international cooperation in tracking down fugitives and the evolving strategies to counter terrorism through legal channels in the years before 9/11.The FTC's draft settlement with Marriott International over a series of data breaches highlights the agency's growing support for "right-to-delete" policies, mirroring a trend in state-level privacy laws. This agreement, targeting breaches from 2014 to 2020 affecting 344 million customers, would require Marriott to provide U.S. customers with a way to request deletion of their personal data. Unlike the FTC's traditional "notice-and-choice" model, this approach shifts responsibility to companies to manage and remove collected data when requested. Experts say the Marriott settlement may be a sign of future federal data privacy directions, especially since the FTC has recently applied similar requirements in cases with companies like Chegg Inc. As right-to-delete policies expand, companies face challenges navigating varying state privacy laws, with 20 states already enacting or soon implementing data privacy regulations. Ensuring compliance across different jurisdictions requires complex data mapping and collaboration between legal and technical teams to track, delete, and prevent reintroduction of sensitive data. Additionally, reducing retained data may impact marketing strategies that rely on long-term customer data. Marriott's settlement and the FTC's recent blog post signal the importance of limiting data collection to only what is operationally necessary, reinforcing the idea that uncollected data cannot be stolen.FTC's Marriott Data Breach Order Echoes States' Right to DeleteRyne Miller, formerly the U.S. general counsel for FTX, has joined New Jersey law firm Lowenstein Sandler as a partner to lead its new commodities and derivatives practice. Previously with Sullivan & Cromwell, Miller advised FTX through its bankruptcy proceedings following the crypto exchange's collapse and founder Sam Bankman-Fried's fraud conviction. Though Sullivan & Cromwell faced allegations related to FTX's misconduct, Miller was not named in any subsequent litigation. After leaving FTX, Miller founded Miller Strategic Partners, providing regulatory advice in traditional and digital finance. At Lowenstein, Miller will head the commodities and derivatives group and co-chair its crypto practice, aiming to capture the recent surge in U.S.-based crypto interest. His experience, including past work for SEC Chair Gary Gensler at the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, aligns with Lowenstein's strategic expansion in financial services, fintech, and investment management.Ex-FTX US Legal Chief Joins Lowenstein, Eying Crypto ResurgenceJack Teixeira, a 22-year-old Massachusetts Air National Guardsman, faces sentencing for leaking highly classified military documents online, with prosecutors seeking a 17-year prison term. Teixeira, who held a top-secret security clearance as a low-ranking airman, shared sensitive information with a group on the messaging app Discord, reportedly discussing topics like Russia's war in Ukraine, Israel, Syria, and Iran. He was warned by his superiors twice in 2022 about mishandling classified information, yet he continued to access and share sensitive intelligence. Prosecutors argue his actions represent one of the most significant breaches of the Espionage Act in U.S. history. Teixeira's defense team requested a shorter, 11-year sentence, arguing that his intent was to inform his online friends about global events rather than harm the U.S. and citing his struggles with autism and social isolation. In separate military proceedings, Teixeira also faces charges for obstructing justice and failing to follow orders.Pentagon leaker Teixeira faces sentencing, US seeks 17-year prison term | ReutersSteve Bannon, former adviser to President-elect Donald Trump, is due back in court ahead of his Dec. 9 trial in New York state on fraud charges linked to a 2019 fundraising campaign for Trump's border wall. Prosecutors allege Bannon deceived donors, raising over $15 million while secretly diverting funds to the campaign's CEO, Brian Kolfage, despite promises that all donations would go directly to construction. Bannon, who was previously pardoned by Trump on related federal charges, faces charges in New York state court where presidential pardons do not apply.Bannon has pleaded not guilty, with his lawyers arguing that he only reimbursed Kolfage for expenses. Kolfage, who pled guilty to federal fraud charges, is currently serving a 4¼-year sentence. Recently released from a four-month federal prison sentence for contempt of Congress after refusing to testify before a committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, Bannon has resumed hosting his podcast and claims his legal troubles are politically motivated.Fresh off prison release, former Trump adviser Bannon due back in court | Reuters This is a public episode.
