Ah HA! Navy SEAL Gallagher's lawyer works for trump org. There's the connection

Lawyer for Navy SEAL accused of war crimes also works for Trump Organization

https://www.cnn.com/2019/05/24/politics/navy-seal-chief-eddie-gallagher-defense-team-trump/index.html

Trump Organization lawyer Marc Mukasey started working on the case in recent months, according to sources familiar with the situation.

Former NYPD Commissioner Bernard Kerik, a former business partner of Trump ally and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, also is helping with Gallagher's case. Kerik, who once served three years in federal prison for charges including tax fraud and lying to officials, was nominated as homeland security secretary by President George W. Bush but withdrew from consideration due to potential tax violations.

He has regularly appeared on Fox News as a surrogate for the President.

Lead defense attorney Tim Parlatore confirmed Wednesday that Mukasey, who is also involved in legal efforts to block House lawmakers from accessing President Donald Trump's financial records, is "one of the attorneys on Chief Gallagher's team."

During the debates, did Hillary say: MASSIVE? right wing conspiracy......If not. she should have said humongous.....

And to think everyone pooh poohed her statement. She tried to tell the world. I wonder if she new the far reaching extent of just how massive it was..........

Another connection. Michael (the father) was quoted as saying during the campaign that Hillary Clinton's email whatever was enough to disqualify her from the presidency. That is, he was a Trumper all along.
