A former federal prosecutor has emerged as special counsel Robert Mueller’s most persistent courtroom critic.
It’s not Rudy Giuliani, a former U.S. attorney and now President Trump’s ubiquitous defender, or any of cable TV’s prosecutors-turned-pundits.
He is Eric A. Dubelier, a litigator for the Reed Smith law firm who knows international law and the D.C. playing field. He served eight years prosecuting cases as a Justice Department assistant U.S. attorney in Washington. He refers to his former employer as “the real Justice Department,” implying that Mr. Mueller’s team is something less.
His biting remarks have come in months of court filings and oral arguments. Mr. Dubelier has depicted Mr. Mueller as a rogue prosecutor willfully ignoring Justice Department guidelines.
He has accused Mr. Mueller of creating a “make-believe crime” against his Russian client, Concord Management and Consulting, which is accused of funding a troll farm that interfered in the 2016 election.
So far, the federal judge...sided with Mr. Mueller.
Mr. Dubelier charges that the Mueller team violated the confidentially of Concord’s counter evidence while hiding documents Concord needs for its defense. The prosecutor wants to “whisper secrets to the judge,” Mr. Dubelier says, as Mr. Mueller is calculating the “short-term political value of a conviction” and not worrying about an appeals court defeat years later.
An example: In a Dec. 20 motion, Mr. Dubelier resurrected a botched case spearheaded by Mr. Mueller’s top prosecutor, Andrew Weissmann.
Mr. Weissmann headed the Justice Department’s Enron task force nearly two decades ago. He won a conviction against the accounting firm Arthur Andersen for shredding the defunct energy firm’s financial documents.
Years later, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously reversed the conviction. The 2005 decision effectively said that Andersen, by then out of business and its 28,000 employees gone, hadn’t committed a crime.

Nice to know there’s an expert fighting for our side. The judge sounds like a real hardhead. Lib, no doubt.

Mr. Mueller is a bad Marine. Lost his integrity.
I didn’t know that about Anderson Accounting. Sad.
BAD?
Mueller took a uranium sample to Russia as part of Hillary's team to sell uranium to Russia.
Mueller shut down any investigation into Hillary for allegations that she was getting big $$ bribes from the Russians.
Mueller is a criminal who has not yet been charged, and if he can continue the witch hunt, he will likely NOT be charged with anything. To protect the RAT party from massive arrests and convictions, Mueller must be successful.
The RAT party through fraud and lies was able to take control of the House. Just a little more and they will be successful in getting Trump. Mueller is a very important part of that effort!
Wow, as informed as I am, I did not know that. Not sure how it got past me, our national press (and Fox News) is so thorough in their reporting. :/
Re “Mueller and the law”. His attitude: “We don’t need no stinkin’ law. We is the law and the law is whatever we say it is”. Just ask Enron, and the 2 innocent men my amigo Weissman sent to die in jail.
Since the special intermediary re accessing the classified investigatory documents for admissibility/review by the defendants obviously leaked them to the Mueller prosecution, the only recourse would be for a totally independent, qualified outsider to review them and make recommendations on producing or not.
Then the previous reviewer should be arrested for leaking classified information.
Mueller is worse than the Reds because he’s an American who is knowingly betraying his country. From where I come from, that’s called “treason”.
Right on, to Mueller and his RATs the law is whatever they say it is.
Bump! Yep, the judge has to be a Lib.

Wholeheartedly agree. It figures that the bastard never was tried and imprisoned for his malpractice, but was recruited to do the same kind of hatchet job on the President.
I don’t see a remedy happening anytime soon either. Could happen to anyone.
Unfortunately the judge in this case is allowing mueller to run a kangaroo court
Let’s not forget that Congress could take care of these problems and horrendous abuses.
It doesn’t because it likes them.
Scary stuff.
The evilness of Mueller and the Rats will become more and more prevalent as time passes. They’ve turned their hearts over to Satan. All we see is what’s out there in plain sight. I can only imagine what goes on behind closed doors with these vile people. I doubt if God will rescue us at this point.
