Beryl Howell is the judge who signed off on Robert Mueller’s request to convene a Washington, D.C. grand jury, and who apparently will continue to “umpire” disputes over the grand jury’s work (which, in reality, is Mueller’s work). As I discussed earlier today, Howell served for ten years as a staffer for Sen. Patrick Leahy, the hyper-partisan leftist.
Item: Judge Howell presided over a trial in which left-wing talk show host Ed Schultz was sued by a sound engineer for breach of an alleged partnership agreement. According to the Daily Caller, Howell showed blatant favoritism for Schultz and contempt for the plaintiff’s lead lawyer.
Item: According to this report from PJ Media, Judge Howell left out the words “so help me God” from a naturalization ceremony. These words are part of the oath prescribed by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
Item: Speaking of immigrants, according to the same PJ Media article, Judge Howell rejected a challenge to Obama’s executive actions that would have provided work permits to undocumented immigrants who met certain requirements. As we all know, the Supreme Court later blocked this blatantly illegal order from taking effect.
Such a judge needs to be a true straight shooter, not a Washington-issue one. Judge Howell does not even come across as the latter kind. She appears to be a doctrinaire liberal, just as one would expect a former Leahy staffer to be.
I live in the Washington, D.C. area. I know plenty of people around here who aren’t nearly as leftist this judge appears to be, but who despise President Trump. There’s a good chance Judge Howell relishes the chance to stick it to him.

Ping to above.
The silver lining inside the clous is that thanks to mueller, schummer, and others we are able to make a pretty good list of who the vermin in the swamp are.
This list will come in very handy if President Trumps diplomatic efforts with them does not work.
He missed an important part of the story. WEISSMAN
The term “Judge” should be purged when referring to Hack Beryl Howell.
As someone else said here, there is a tree of liberty that needs watering.
“There’s a good chance Judge Howell relishes the chance to stick it to him.”
Pretty much a Captain Obvious perspective.
We need to purge the United States of all communists.
The fact that Mueller et. al. requested to convene a grand jury in D.C. only proves the fix is in. They already had one convened in Virginia. But having one in D.C. vastly improves the chances of getting a petit jury empaneled that will be full of Trump haters.
Howell served for ten years as a staffer for Sen. Patrick Leahy,
Beryl A. Howell was nominated to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia by President Barack Obama on July 14, 2010.
Deputy Secretary Rosenstein was the saboteur in this plot to remove a duly elected president from office. AG Sessions’ tragic decision to recuse himself was the crucial mistake that enabled them to get their man in charge, and he was happy to appoint a fellow traveler, Mueller, to hire Hillary’s lawyers and move the Grand Jury to D. C. where President Trump got 7% of the vote.
Some day, those reading the history of this coup will marvel at how Republicans connived to let their Democrat friends do the dirty work to rid the swamp of Donald J. Trump.
The best picture ever taken of her unattractive schoolmarm face.
It was tear soaked and puffy the night Hillary lost.

Well said.
Seems to me that Mueller is setting up the whole venture for a good chance of being knocked down on appeal. There’s enough bias built into his team that any good lawyer should be able to drive a truck through the hole.
what is rule 308?
#17 ditto agreed
