putz lawyer has strong ties to Russia

The lawyers who wrote a letter saying President Trump had no significant business ties to Russia work for a law firm that has extensive ties to Russia and received a “Russia Law Firm of the Year” award in 2016.

Sheri Dillon and William Nelson, tax partners at the law firm Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, which has served as tax counsel to Trump and the Trump Organization since 2005, wrote a letter in March released by the White House on Friday stating that a review of the last 10 years of Trump’s tax returns “do not reflect” ties to Russia “with a few exceptions.”

Is how easily all this is to find out.

It's like 45 is just thumbing his nose at the American public.

Jami McKeon is Morgan Lewis CEO.

The President's tax lawyers are only low level partners at the firm. Tell McKeon to fire those partners.
