Hackiest prosecutor Trump could find not hacky enough

Joseph diGenova was brought in to prosecute Donald Trump’s deep state enemies, after the DOJ prosecutor who was originally given this Stalinesque task was fired, for reporting to her superiors that she couldn’t find any evidence of a deep state conspiracy against Donald Trump. Todd Blanche figured that diGenova would be up for the job, given his impeccable complete MAGA hack credentials, but sometimes a man, even an 81-year-old man, ends up caring more about holding onto his law license, and not ending up like Rudy Giuliani:

Counselor to the Attorney General Joe diGenova abruptly resigned Thursday from a sprawling probe into former officials in the Obama administration, The Post has learned.

“I did resign today by letter to the attorney general. I said that it was a privilege and an honor to serve the president and the department, and I was very grateful,” diGenova told The Post by phone on Thursday night.

DiGenova was investigating Obama-era figures who allegedly pushed claims of collusion between Donald Trump and Russia during the 2016 presidential campaign,

Sources said diGenova had lost support from Department of Justice leaders and the White House amid his “grand conspiracy” investigation, with one source suggesting that the 81-year-old prosecutor and former Trump defense lawyer was “slow-rolling” indictments and getting lost down “rabbit holes.”

Asked whether he had lost focus, diGenova dismissed the accusation and shot back: “If you want indictments where there’s no evidence, you have an ethical problem.”

Having “ethics,” even of the most self-interested kind, is definitely suboptimal in the Trump DOJ. Too bad Natalie doesn’t have a law license (yet).
