Anxiety in the White (Supremacist) House is growing as Special Counsel
Robert Mueller continues to assemble a "dream team" of veteran prosecutors and investigators. Some of the anxiety is visible in the slimy campaign to discredit the team, notably by odious charlatan
Newt "Poot" Gingrich, who recently disparaged them as "
bad people" (i.e., Democrats). Two of the team, in particular, are causing worry among the Trumpists. One,
Andrew Weissmann, former head of the Justice Department's criminal fraud section of Enron case fame, is a dogged prosecutor
known for flipping witnesses in a criminal case to catch higher-ups. Before his successful work on the Enron case, Weissmann was a federal prosecutor in Brooklyn assigned to organized crime cases, including the one that brought down the head of the Genovese crime family. The second,
Michael Dreeben, former Deputy Solicitor General and expert in criminal law, has been the Justice Department's key official in
prosecuting criminal justice cases. According to Duke University School of Law professor Walter Dellinger, “
Michael is the most brilliant and most knowledgeable federal criminal lawyer in America — period.” Both are evidence of the seriousness with which Mueller is approaching the expanding Russiagate probe to include potential criminal violations.
With
top law firms refusing to defend sociopath and Putin loyalist
Donald "Rump" Trump, and given the second-rate legal team of Sekulow and Kasowitz drafted by Rump, it's no wonder that nerves are frayed in the White (Supremacist) House.
UPDATE: Make that
a one- two- three punch --
Special Counsel Robert Mueller just signed up another recruit to help with his ongoing investigation into alleged Russian influence in the 2016 presidential election.
Next on-board the investigative juggernaut–which now includes a total of 13 attorneys and counting–is Elizabeth Prelogar, an assistant with the solicitor general’s office who is apparently fluent in the Russian language.
Otlichno!
