Guilty Until Proven Innocent: Mueller Upends Rule of Law, In Final Appearance—Sidney Powell

When special counsel Robert Mueller formally closed the Russia investigation on May 29th, he opened the door to wide-ranging speculation as to the intent behind his statement. In the eyes of Former Texas Prosecutor Sidney Powell, Mueller’s words stood the rule of law and the presumption of innocence on their heads. This is American Thought Leaders, and I’m Jan Jekielek. Today we sit down with Sidney Powell, who is the author of LICENSED TO LIE: Exposing Corruption in the Department of Justice. She was lead counsel in more than 500 appeals in the Fifth Circuit, and she’s is ranked by her Texas peers as a "Super Lawyer." We discuss the implications of Special Counsel Mueller’s May 29 press conference, the recent DOJ decision to not prosecute a serial leaker, corruption in the DOJ in general, and what can be done to correct it.
