As you may have heard, a desperate Paul Manafort sued the DOJ whining that it gave Robert Mueller undue authority to bust him. The lawsuit is crap, according to this Notre Dame law professor:
“If the ultimate objective is to continue to try to undermine the credibility of Mueller and his prosecutors, it could have some value,” said Jimmy Gurulé, a Notre Dame law professor who was a senior Justice Department official in the administration of the first President George Bush. “But in terms of a legal strategy, it’s highly unlikely to prevail.”
