Ellis is a difficult judge to work with, and I can easily picture what’s going on in that courtroom. I tried my first case in Federal Court before him in the ‘80s, and have appeared before him many times since. He’s always had his own mind about how cases should be tried, and he picked up some of his traits from Bryant and Lewis, senior judges long since retired who molded the peculiar character of EDVA Alexandria. In the past ten years or so he has gotten much more abrupt with counsel whenever something displeases him. All that said, he is an extraordinarily sharp judge and one I am happy to draw for a complicated case.
The Left is bereft of ideology at this point. So all that's left is ad hominem attacks. Fortunately, Trump's base is energized by these attacks.
My perspective on the Mueller prosecutions is simple: the Left is sending a chilling message to anyone who plans to work for Trump, abandon hope all ye who enter here. It's as though Mueller et. al., received their training under Putin's KGB, ironically.
