As reported earlier by Charles Gasparino of Fox News and subsequently confirmed by ABC, President Trump has reportedly retained a private attorney for Special Counsel Mueller"s probe of alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian officials. Not surprisingly, Trump has chosen Marc Kasowitz of Kasowitz Benson Torres LLP whose list of notable representations includes representing "President Donald J. Trump in a wide range of litigation matters for over 15 years" at the very top.

Among the firm"s other notable attorneys is none other than former Senator, and rumored front-runner for the vacant FBI Director seat, Joe Lieberman. That said, we would assume that the retention of Kasowitz implies that Lieberman is no longer being considered for the FBI role.
Of course, this will undoubtedly be viewed by many in the mainstream media as an admission of guilt on Trump"s part.
