A prominent Washington lawyer who authored a report that's a key part of the special counsel's investigation into Paul Manafort has left his law firm.

Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom confirmed Tuesday that Greg Craig, a former White House counsel under President Barack Obama, is no longer with the firm. His biography has been removed from the law firm website. The firm didn't immediately comment beyond confirming his departure.

Craig wrote a report funded by the Ukrainian Ministry of Justice about the trial of a former Ukrainian prime minister.

Mueller is running the usual Mueller/Comey/Fitzgerald playbook of destroying careers and lives so it looks like he’s accomplished something.

CONNECTING THE DOTS

Harmon Wilfred, an honorably discharged US military veteran, was, in the 1980’s and 90’s, a professional contractor and consultant.

From 1994 through 1998, while under contract with the CIA, Wilfred claims he discovered fraud and embezzlement against US citizens.

It involved billions of dollars at multiple levels of government, he said.

In November 1999, Wilfred says he took his evidence of corruption to President Bill Clinton’s attorney, Gregory Craig, at a meeting in Toronto, Canada. Craig worked in the Clinton White House from 1998 to 1999, holding the title of assistant to the president and special counsel.

[Obama appointed Craig to serve as his White House Counsel. Craig served in that post from January 2009 to January 3, 2010. Craig was forced out under curious and controversial circumstances. His resignation took effect January 3, 2010.]
