That's the "deep state" our Rethug friends should worry about.

But they think it's some lady stuck behind a Washington DC federal building desk with bi-focals and a pencil stuck in her beehive hairdo.

more than any other group since this was typically called "boys being boys" and even encouraged by some as part of belonging to and accepted by the real power players in business and politics. Boo hoo, society is finally saying this is wrong and not acceptable behavior anymore. Now let's see if they will still be able to get away with it by buying people off since it has usually worked in the past.

Why do they need to rape children, abuse the powerless, and degrade everything they touch. At least the God Father had some class. He never married his sex worker nor raped other people's kids.

A pedosadist, a rapist and a traitor were people they spent elaborate time and effort to protect? And the orange faced traitor and his Slovenian sex worker were the best people they could find to represent them? What an absolute waste of time and money. These people are stupid as well as sleazy if they think Trump and Epstein are worth even a single penny.

Among the firm’s partners is Neil Eggleston, who served as President Barack Obama’s White House counsel from 2014 through the end of the administration. A litigation partner, Susan Davies, served as deputy White House counsel during the Obama administration. Erica Williams, a partner in the firm’s regulatory and investigations group, served as a special assistant and associate counsel to Obama.

Frequent law clerks. Alito, the fool who thinks money is a form of free speech.

explains Barr. He's a mob/oligarch attorney masquerading as attorney general for us.

How many mob hacks are in government?
