Former Trump staffer Michael Caputo endured a decade of lawfare that he says forced him out of his home and gave him cancer from all the stress.
But just when he thought the Russiagate nightmare was over, he was slapped in the face this month with a lawsuit cooked up by a former DOJ lawyer from the “national security” unit that hounded him and other Trump associates over alleged foreign agent violations without laying a single charge.
It’s a simple $100,000 contract dispute case, but Jack Korba, formerly a prosecutor in the small national security section of the District of Columbia US Attorney’s Office and now in private practice in Washington, DC, has filed a complaint packed with gratuitous smears of Caputo that rehash elements of the DOJ’s failed Russiagate probe.
The florid 85-page complaint, filed on Sept. 8, compares Caputo to traitor Benedict Arnold, accuses him of sabotage, quotes Vladimir Putin and alleges shadowy links to “Russian intelligence.”
Conflict of interest
Korba, who left the DOJ last summer to work for Foley & Lardner LLP, is acting for Gilbert Hyatt, an 88-year-old inventor who paid Caputo’s p.r. firm $100,000 to lobby the second Trump White House to establish a “Pioneering AI Foundation” along the lines of the Smithsonian.
Hyatt is suing Caputo, alleging breach of contract and fraud.
Caputo denies the allegations and accuses Korba of being “obsessed” with him, likening the lawyer to Captain Ahab from “Moby Dick,” forever hunting his white whale.
“Our family thought the political weaponization was over, at least the efforts targeting us. After ten years, we were just starting to breathe again. Instead, one of my obsessed DOJ harassers privatized his Russia fantasy — one he could never prove as a fed,” says Caputo.
“My wife and daughters won’t stop crying.”

No matter how much you think you hate the vile DemonRat party, you don’t hate them nearly enough.

If they take both houses it will be an outright lawfare civil war.

True, that! Believe, pray, and speak into the future that it will NOT come to that.
Maybe hiring Caputo was a setup. Other private sector Trump supporters should be cautious—at least that is the message being sent.
This is why the left gets a beating in the midterms. They have literally nothing to offer exc obstruction. No plan, no acheivements, no vision…. Just Trump Trump Trump. This has not worked well for them.
