BREAKING: Special Counsel Mueller Hires 16th Left-Wing Lawyer — Latest Hack Attorney Worked for Holder-Obama

Special Counsel Robert Mueller added another radical left-wing lawyer to his team as he continues to investigate Trump’s personal finances under the guise of a ‘Russia probe’.

Greg Andres is the 16th lawyer to be added to Mueller’s team. He worked under Eric ‘Fast N’ Furious’ Holder from 2010 to 2012. No bias here though. This is a completely fair investigation as Paul Ryan says.

NEW YORK (Reuters) – A former U.S. Justice Department official has become the latest lawyer to join special counsel Robert Mueller’s team investigating Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election, a spokesman for the team confirmed.

Greg Andres started on Tuesday, becoming the 16th lawyer on the team, said Josh Stueve, a spokesman for the special counsel.

Most recently a white-collar criminal defense lawyer with New York law firm Davis Polk & Wardwell, Andres, 50, served at the Justice Department from 2010 to 2012. He was deputy assistant attorney general in the criminal division, where he oversaw the fraud unit and managed the program that targeted illegal foreign bribery.

Mueller, who was appointed special counsel in May, is looking into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during the election, among other matters. Congressional committees are also investigating the matter.

As TGP previously reported, Robert Mueller stacked his Special Counsel team with Democrat donors and Obama lawyers.

Mueller previously announced Jeannie Rhee would be an attorney on his team. Jeannie Rhee served for two years under Eric Holder.

Jeannie Rhee is a Clinton Foundation Lawyer and former Deputy Assistant Attorney General under Barack Obama.

There is no evidence of collusion and even if collusion occurred it would not be a crime — just like the fact that Hillary Clinton colluded with the Ukraine was not a crime.

But the Russian witch hunt will never end until heads roll.

Here is a look at the 15 other attorneys who will investigate Trump.

    • Rush Atkinson, an attorney on detail from the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section at the Department of Justice
      — Donated $200 to Clinton in 2016
