Interesting Factoid

 


Phillip Perry,  a former general counsel in George W. Bush’s Department of Homeland Security, is now a litigation partner in the law firm of Latham and Watkins LLP … and from the Powerline blog, here is a John Hinderaker quote about Latham Watkins … referencing Special Counsel John Durham’s recent blockbuster filing in the Russiagate probe:

“The point of the motion is that the Latham & Watkins law firm, which started out in Los Angeles but now has global reach, has its fingers in multiple pies regarding the Russia collusion hoax, and one or more of its lawyers or former lawyers–funny how that keeps happening–may be witnesses at trial. Therefore Latham has multiple conflicts that should be cleared before trial, or else the firm must be disqualified from representing criminal defendant Michael Sussmann.

Latham’s neck-deep involvement in the Democratic Party’s scandal is much less than that of the Perkins Coie firm, which started out in Seattle but is now, like Latham, global. Marc Elias, the Democratic Party’s chief political lawyer, and criminal defendant Michael Sussmann are both former partners in Perkins Coie. I assume that Elias left Perkins Coie in the expectation that he will be indicted. We should be so lucky; I have wondered for quite a while why Elias, the architect of the Steele dossier and much else, is not in prison.”

And who is Phillip Perry married to? Why, Liz Cheney, that’s who! 

Most of us know who Liz Cheney is …



STAND UP TO  COLLUSION?
