Jesse Eisinger wrote for ProPublica on the role of Marc Kasowitz -- President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer in the Russia investigation -- and the firing of Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York:
Kasowitz’s claimed role in the Bharara firing appears to be a sign that the New York lawyer has been inserting himself into matters of governance and not just advising the president on personal legal matters.
