Norman Eisen (Brookings & CREW) has been serving as outside legal counsel for the prosecutors in Trump’s legal cases. This shouldn’t surprise anyone who’s been paying attention.
Eisen is part of the unofficial DC Lawfare group that includes Brookings, Ben Wittes, Mary McCord, CREW, Bill Kristol, Laurence Tribe,Norm Ornstein, Noah Bookbinder, Barry Berke. Barbara McQuade & many others.
Eisen, McCord and Wittes are the likely leaders. Brookings & Soros have provided funding to Eisen’s projects.
On Feb 22, 2022 former US Attorney Barbara McQuade wrote a memorandum: United States v. Donald Trump - A "Model Prosecution Memo" on the Conspiracy to Pressure Vice President Pence.
On July 23, 2023, Norman Eisen published a far longer 264 page report, titled "Trump on Trial: A Model Prosecution Memo for Federal Election Interference Crimes."
We know Eisen was building off McQuade’s earlier memo because he states this upfront.
We also know that Eisen was effectively acting as outside legal counsel for Jack Smith and his multiple indictments of Trump ( Eisen did the same for Fani Willis).
As Eisen noted, “This model prosecution memorandum assesses federal charges Special Counsel Jack Smith may bring against former President Donald Trump for alleged criminal interference in the 2020 election.”
Eisen also served in similar fashion as outside legal counsel for Mueller. Two huge legal reports - that were also used in Trump’s first impeachment. Eisen served as legal counsel to Dems during the impeachment.
