Supreme Irony: Women Attorneys Lead Trump Investigation

Donald Trump’s crude treatment of women set a new low in American politics and culture. His demeaning view of women is visible in his administration, populated almost entirely by sycophantic men.
Bob Mueller apparently doesn’t buy the idea that only 50% of the adult population is qualified to do serious work.
Here are two attorneys he recently hired.
Jeannie Rhee (pictured above) has spent her private practice career advising clients who are the subject of government investigations, including white-collar criminal investigations, False Claims Act allegations and securities enforcement matters. In her public practice, Ms. Rhee also served as a Deputy Assistant Attorney General where she advised the Attorney General, the White House and senior agency officials on constitutional, statutory and regulatory issues regarding criminal law, criminal procedure, executive privilege, civil rights and national security. Ms. Rhee graduated from Yale Law School.

Lisa Page is an experienced Justice Department trial attorney. She has deep experience with money laundering and organized crime cases. She knows the territory where Paul Manafort took allegedly illegal payments from Russian-backed operatives in Ukraine. Ms. Page worked on the FBI task force in Budapest, Hungary, that focuses on Eastern European organized crime. She is a legal expert in money laundering cases.
