An attorney for special counsel Robert Mueller attended Hillary Clintons election night party in New York City, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday.
Andrew Weissmanns attendance at the party is one of many signs pointing to a troubling bias from the attorney. Weissmann has been described by The New York Times as Muellers lieutenant and pit bull.
Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch obtained an email Tuesday that reveled Weissmann praised former Acting Attorney General Sally Yates defiance of Trump.
I am so proud. And in awe. Thank you so much. All my deepest respects, Weissmann wrote to Yates on Jan. 30. The email followed Yates instruction to the DOJ not to defend an executive order banning immigration from seven nations, an act that led to her dismissal by President Trump.
Weissmann is one of several Democratic donors that have been hired by Mueller, a registered Republican. The special counsels pit bull donated a combined $6,600 to the presidential campaigns of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
The special counsels probe has been criticized by Trumps allies, but the White House maintains Trump has no intention to fire Mueller.
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said in October that Muellers investigation would end soon.
However, it appears the wide-ranging probe will last into 2018.

Correct. The Clinton strategy has always been to have so many scandals and investigations going that the public is totally unable to absorb it all. Not that the lapdog media do anything to clarify any of it.
“Weissman is a scumbags scumbag:
“[Weissman] has a history of serious ethics violations, ...
‘During his years on the Enron Task Force, Prosecutor Weissmann was widely known for intimidating witnesses, hiding evidence, and unethical and heavy-handed, if not illegal, tactics, said Powell, who has written about the case for the legal site Seeking Justice.”
Isn’t Weissman the punk who is believed to have recommended the Gestapo-like raid on Manafort’s home?
I'm going to refer to them as The Wet Dream Team.
Mueller is the new Saddam, I need a deck of cards so I can identify his inner circle of operators.
I’m disappointed!
Soooo the president does not intend to fire Mueller, even after all these revelations of the kind of people he’s got working with him. Huh. I’ve got to admit this sort of hints at the whole “keep your enemies closer” mantra. IS it possible Mueller is a sly fox in all this? Does he want to help DT drain a certain swamp?
I never thought so. But now I do have to wonder, sorry.
It is possible the Mueller stunt is to allow NeverTrumpers to harmlessly blow off steam. Doesn’t seem likely, but it is possible. That’s how the special counsel was used to clear Janet Reno and the gov in the Branch Davidian Massacre.
No, there is not some sort of Trump-Mueller deal here. It’s a simple as it appears. Russia-Trump is a nothingburger and Mueller screwed up in bringing obviously tainted people on board.
Occam’s Razor.
‘I ... think it is just one crazy on this forum.’
It’s more like a cult, actually. There was an active poster, with a screenname beginning with l and ending with s, who is friends with Steve Bannon. He’s the one who first claimed, based on insider knowledge, that Trump and Mueller were playing on the same team. He garnered a medium-sized, extremely dedicated and enthusiastic following.
This poster has since largely left the forum. His acolytes still believe his ‘scoop,’ but they are less vocal since the exit of their linchpin.
That's got Weissman written all over it.
Thanks. Happy to help with a smile.
