Trump hires another high-profile lawyer as special counsel probe heats up

By Josh Dawsey

President Donald Trump has added another high-profile lawyer to his personal legal team as the special counsel investigation heats up.

John Dowd, who investigated Pete Rose for Major League Baseball and represented John McCain during the Keating Five Scandal, among other high-profile clients, has joined the president's legal team, according to two people familiar with the pick. Dowd declined to comment Friday.

The addition of Dowd, a 76-year-old former prosecutor who has practiced law in Washington for decades, adds an experienced hand in the investigation. He joins Marc Kasowitz, Trump's longtime New York lawyer, Mark Bowe, who works with Kasowitz, and Jay Sekulow.

Do you think we could get a few more lawyers involved in this mess?

There are 1.2 million lawyers in the US. They haven't all migrated to DC yet.

If it was Guam... And they all migrated to DC, it would become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize. !

There is only one group of people that might rival lawyers and politicians in terms of how truly slimy they are... real estate hustlers.


Let's see... Land, Land, see snatch.

You see, it can be done! It CAN be done!!!
