Now, eleven months on since that request, the same group can see that it is obvious that Weiss was working to protect Hunter Biden. They suspect Weiss because he was the one who negotiated the ridiculous immunity plea deal, that was rejected by a judge recently.
So, as far as the GOP is concerned, as a US Attorney, and after four years on this case, Weiss is not special at all and should not be SC. Now Blackburn et al are saying just that, as per the Yahoo story:
Attorney General Merrick Garland “knows Weiss will protect Hunter,” Blackburn scoffed in a social media post on Saturday.
“If Weiss negotiated the sweetheart deal that couldn’t get approved, how can he be trusted as a Special Counsel?” McCarthy said in his post.
