The emergency meeting of the Federal Judges Association is taking place Wednesday not today



Christopher C. Alberto @ChrisAlbertoLaw

Judge Cynthia Rufe, president of the federal judges' association, said the group set the emergency meeting for Feb 19 because the group "could not wait" until its April meeting to discuss the "deepening crisis" involving @TheJusticeDept & Barr.

(I mistakenly said Feb 18 below)

Breaking: A group of over 1000 federal judges set an emergency meeting for Feb 18 to address Trump's and Barr's interference in "politically sensitive cases". The meeting was arranged last week.

Note: on Sunday, Judge Jackson also set a Feb 18 hearing in the Roger Stone case.
