The nation's top law enforcement officer sat on his ass during the mayhem

It’s the Trumpstank.

Curious his former law firm represented Rosneft and Gazprom during his tenure there. If he were a lawyer today in civil private practice, imputed disqualification rules prohibit his taking a materially adverse position to the scope of his firm’s former representation. Ethical rules impute disqualification because of a lawyer’s continuing duty to former clients to maintain confidentiality. Those Russian energy giants would disqualify him in a civil case. I presume Putin would disqualify him in a criminal case.

In the criminal arena that appearance generates suspicion in a reasonably prudent person. Hand-picked successor to the castrato Comey, Mueller, spies, interfering in investigations, Gaetz and Jordan hiding their tracks by summoning him to testify, accusing him of politicizing the FBI to help Biden. That appearance of impropriety, at the very beginning, is a certainty, for me, 7 years later. He’s also a member of the Federalist Society.

Didn’t Wray watch events on TV about the same time as the human canker on 1/6/21? He failed to protect our nation’s capital during an emergency; that’s unforgivable.
