Huber was appointed by Obama, removed by Trump and then reappointed by Trump. Utah's Orrin Hatch & Mike Lee vouched for Huber. This was likely made public due to recent requests for 2nd Special Counsel. Is it almost "Go time?" Hope so! Shortened link:

Statement by U.S. Attorney John W. Huber on Kate’s Law and the No Sanctuary for Criminals Act

Today, at the White House press briefing, U.S. Attorney John W. Huber gave the following statement:

“Just last month, a Utah federal judge issued a sentence of life plus 80 years to Roberto Roman, a criminal alien who had been removed from our country three times prior to 2010. Those three deportations, and even time in state prison, were not enough to dissuade Roman from returning to rural Utah where he trafficked methamphetamine to addicted residents. ...

“removing unnatural impediments between local and federal law enforcement will enable the coordination we need in this country to keep our neighborhoods safe. The priority for public safety overrides so-called sanctuary policies when those two are matched against one another. The “No Sanctuary for Criminals” bill will help law enforcement partners work together for our safety, as we expect them to do. Criminal aliens don’t need encouragement to reside in any of our beautiful cities. Rather, these drug trafficker and gang member aliens need handcuffs and removal. Law enforcement professionals are very good at what they do — we should not impede them from doing their excellent work in keeping us safe.”

Romney pals, Lee and Hatch and Huber? Great references.

I saw Varney interview Turley. My own impression was that Varney was not impressed by Turley’s glowing report on how speedy things would go with no second SC appointed.

I don’t recall now the question Varney posed, related to Huber being quicker, but Turley seemed to sober up. Varney had wiped that toothy smile off Turley’s face.
