I’m catching up on perspectives from the talking head class about the ridiculous “hush money” legal case in New York City.  As I watched the review by Jonathan Turley, I noticed the video caught someone on the livestream.

Serendipitous timing – SEE HERE

For those who do not know, the guy circled coming out of the courtroom is Norm Eisen, one of the primary architects of the Lawfare attack scheme.  Eisen, Mary McCord and Andrew Weissmann construct the motions, briefings and legal strategies for the various state and federal prosecutions in DC, New York and Georgia.

Remember these specific names:  Mary McCord, Norman Eisen and Andrew Weissmann.  You will see them repeated in a pattern throughout the Trump attacks.  Weissmann, Eisen and McCord have been enmeshed since 2016 and the original DOJ/FBI targeting effort against Donald Trump on behalf of Hillary Clinton.

Here’s the video:

As we have noted for the past several years, it’s this same group of Lawfare ideologues, mostly former DOJ administrators and lawyers, who are behind every anti-Trump effort.

Politico outlines how Lawfare operative Norm Eisen organizes the weekly Lawfare meeting and lists the participants who also join in.  Remember, Mary McCord, Norm Eisen and Andrew Weissmann are the primary Lawfare agents.

Via POLITICO – […] Every Friday, they meet on Zoom to hash out the latest twists and turns in the Trump legal saga — and intellectually stress-test the arguments facing Trump on his journey through the American legal system.

The meetings are off the record — a chance for the group’s members, many of whom are formally or loosely affiliated with different media outlets, to grapple with a seemingly endless array of novel legal issues before they hit the airwaves or take to print or digital outlets to weigh in with their thoughts.

The group’s host is Norman Eisen, a senior Obama administration official, longtime Trump critic and CNN legal analyst, who has been convening the group since 2022 as Trump’s legal woes ramped up. Eisen was also a key member of the team of lawyers assembled by House Democrats to handle Trump’s first impeachment.

[…] The regular attendees on Eisen’s call include Bill Kristol, the longtime conservative commentator, and Laurence Tribe, the famed liberal constitutional law professor. John Dean, who was White House counsel under Richard Nixon before pleading guilty to obstruction of justice in connection with Watergate, joins the calls, as does George Conway, a conservative lawyer and co-founder of the anti-Trump Lincoln Project. Andrew Weissmann, a longtime federal prosecutor who served as one of the senior prosecutors on Robert Mueller’s Trump-Russia investigation and is now a legal analyst for MSNBC, is another regular on the calls. Jeffrey Toobin, a pioneer in the field of cable news legal analysis, is also a member of the crew. The rest of the group includes recognizable names from the worlds of politics, law and media.

[…] You probably know some of the other regular participants on the call, which draws in some of the most recognizable names in the Anti-Trump Cinematic Universe.

They currently include Obama-era U.S. Attorneys Harry Litman, Barbara McQuade and Joyce White Vance. Litman is a columnist for the Los Angeles Times, a cable news regular and a podcast host. McQuade and Vance co-host a podcast and are under contract with MSNBC, as are two other regular attendees — Jennifer Rubin, an opinion writer for the Washington Post who often covers Trump’s legal affairs, and Mary McCord, a former federal prosecutor and high-ranking official in the Justice Department who co-hosts a podcast for MSNBC with Weissmann. Karen Agnifilo, a former senior prosecutor in the Manhattan District Attorney’s office and CNN commentator, is an occasional attendee, as is Elliot Williams, also a former federal prosecutor who provides commentary on CNN.

There are many people in media pretending to be surprised to see this article outlining all the participants in the anti-Trump effort, as it gives the appearance of an organized and collaborative effort between media and the Lawfare group.  However, all of the surprise is just that – pretense.

The entire DC world knows exactly what is going on and who is participating.  You do not have some super incredible insight, knowledge or discernment that is not also known and available to every politician, pundit and entity in DC circles. They all know this game, and they know the players within it.

Some may pretend to be surprised to see these names in print, but they know exactly who and what these people do.  It’s the same “pretending not to know” game they deployed about Robert Mueller and Andrew Weissmann.

The entire town of Washington DC knew Robert Mueller was a figurehead appointment with a team behind him to cover up the 2016 DC operation against Donald Trump.

That is exactly what the Robert Mueller special counsel operation was – a giant coverup operation; or what might be called a Lawfare “catch and kill” operation, where they threw a bag over all the DOJ/FBI and IC unlawful conduct for two years.  The entire town of Washington DC knew this.  Don’t ever let our representatives ignore the fact that we are aware of this.

They are not involved in the Lawfare operation to prosecute some form of illegal behavior. They are involved in the Lawfare operation simply to manipulate the public and change political outcomes.

The Lawfare effort is intended to embarrass Trump, isolate Trump, ridicule Trump and marginalize Trump. Lawfare is the use of law to manipulate public opinion and change political outcomes.
