Ken Starr: (Fired for not addressing sexual assults at Baylor University)
In between being really pro-impeachment and really anti-impeachment, Starr spent some time as the president of
Baylor University, **a job he lost after report demonstrated that his administration showed a “fundamental
failure” in responding to sexual assaults**, including an epidemic of cases involving players on the school’s
football team. Presumably, Trump hired him for his gravitas and to lend historical perspective to the case, but
it also could be because he just has a thing for defending sexual predators.
Also worth noting is that Starr is the Epstein lawyer that argued against notifying the victims as required by law
Robert Ray: (Arrested Stalker)
Ray went on to be arrested for stalking in 2006. As the New York Times reported at the time: “Mr. Ray had been
sending e-mail messages to and visiting a 40-year-old Manhattan woman against her wishes after she broke off
their relationship about four months ago, the police said.”
Jay Sekulow: (The Trump direct connection to Lev Parnas)
Sekulow got the president to **approve an arrangement for the president’s former lawyer, John Dowd, to represent
Lev Parnas,** an indicted associate of Trump lawyer Rudy Guliani. Parnas has since started cooperating with the
impeachment investigation and publicly implicated the president.
Pat Cipollone: (Mr.Obstruction)
Cipollone, who worked as an assistant to Attorney General William Barr in the early 1990s, has been stalwart in
his defense of the presidency during the impeachment saga. Most notably, he crafted the strategy of absolute
non-cooperation with the impeachment inquiry, penning what has to be the most unhinged letter in the history of
the OLC, a legal argument that basically amounted to “witch hunt!” Cipollone’s strategy, which entails refusing
to comply with every single lawful subpoena the impeachment inquiry has issued for the White House, **resulted in
a second impeachment count against Donald Trump, obstruction of Congress.**
Alan Dershhowitz: (Accused Pedophile)
In recent years has come under scrutiny for **his work representing now-deceased serial sex trafficker Jeffrey
Epstein**. One of Epstein’s accusers also accused Dershowitz of sexual assault, a charge he denies. Dershowitz
has said he received a massage at Epstein’s house, which was one of the bases of Epstein’s trafficking, but
insists he “kept my underwear on during the massage,” and that the massage was done by an “old, old Russian
woman.”
Pat Bondi: (The corrupt Florida AG)
In August 2018, **while still serving as Attorney General, Bondi co-hosted Fox News' The Five three days in a row
while also appearing on Sean Hannity's Fox News show.**
The Florida Attorney General's office received at least 22 fraud complaints about Trump University. In 2013 a
spokesperson for Bondi announced that her office was considering joining a lawsuit initiated by New York's
Attorney General against Trump regarding tax fraud.Four days later 'And Justice for All', a political action
committee (PAC) established by Bondi to support her re-election campaign, **received a $25,000 donation from the
Donald J. Trump Foundation, after which Bondi declined to join the lawsuit against Trump University.**
