Weiss appointment as Hunter Biden special counsel violates DOJ regulations, experts warn | Just The News https://t.co/YWNjr8cd2c

Continuing the MAGA media universe’s meltdown over Delaware US Attorney David Weiss being appointed special counsel to sort out the Hunter Biden shitshow, disgraced former Hill opinion columnist John Solomon’s shitty website on Saturday printed the DOJ regulations for special counsels: “An individual named as Special Counsel shall be a lawyer with a reputation for integrity and impartial decision making, and with appropriate experience to ensure both that the investigation will be conducted ably, expeditiously and thoroughly, and that investigative and prosecutorial decisions will be supported by an informed understanding of the criminal law and Department of Justice policies. The Special Counsel shall be selected from outside the United States Government.”

The last part was emphasized by Jeffrey Epstein pal Alan Dershowitz in the “expert” interview Solomon cites and he was very far from alone in bringing it up in the MAGA circlejerk. The problem – and there’s always a problem in these tantrums – is that no one on the right to our knowledge said the same about now former US Attorney for Connecticut and “Obamagate” investigator John Durham, who was appointed to special counsel for the same matter by Attorney General Bill Barr in October 2020 and continued to serve in both roles simultaneously until late February 2021. No sense in posing any obnoxious rhetorical questions asking why it’s only an issue now. We all know why.
