The months leading up to his trial were marked with controversy. Defense lawyers and military prosecutors had disputed the conditions of Gallagher’s pre-trial treatment, and at one point, evenPresident Trump got involved, tweeting out that Gallagher would be moved to “less restrictive confinement while he awaits his day in court.”
Marc Mukasey, one of Gallagher's lawyers who is also President Trump's attorneythanked the president for bringing "this case out of the shadows and into the light."
"America saw what was being done to Eddie Gallagher and thanks to the president for bringing it into the light so that we could expose the injustice that was being done," Mukasey said Wednesday.

Trump Family, Foundation Have ‘Huge Get’ with New Addition to Legal Team in NY Lawsuit
by Ronn Blitzer | 2:56 pm, February 11th, 2019
US President Donald Trump gives a thumbs up as he leaves the Elysee Palace in Paris on November 10, 2018 following bilateral talks with the French President on the sidelines of commemorations marking the 100th anniversary of the 11 November 1918 armistice, ending World War I.

The Trump Foundation and members of the Trump family made a big addition to their legal team, as they fight off a lawsuit from the New York Attorney General’s Office. In addition to Alan Futerfas, who was already representing them in the case, the Trumps are now also being represented by attorney Marc Mukasey, a former partner at Greenberg Traurig, where Rudy Giuliani used to work.
The addition of Mukasey was discovered when a court filing aimed at pointing out problems with AG Letitia James‘s case bore his name.
Former federal prosecutor Renatto Mariotti was certainly impressed, calling Mukasey “a very serious and talented lawyer” and “a huge get for Trump.”

The court filing also discloses that the foundation, Trump and his three eldest children (Eric, Don Jr. & Ivanka) have added an attorney (in addition to Alan Futerfas) to their legal team in this case:

In May 2018, after it was reported that Mukasey was in talks to join Trump’s team, the attorney said that he would not join Giuliani in representing Trump, opting to remain at Greenberg Traurig.
Prior to joining that firm, Mukasey and Giuliani were both with the Bracewell law firm. Mukasey, a former federal prosecutor, had been rumored to be joining Trump’s legal team for some time. There was one potential issue at the time, as Mukasey was representing Australian entrepreneur Joel Zamel, who had been questioned by the Special Counsel’s Office.
:{:{}:
}:
In April, Mukasey said that Zamel had “only a tenuous connection to the special counsel’s investigation,” and that he was “cooperating fully.”
BuzzFeed reports that Mukasey left Greenberg Traurig in January to start his own practice.
Law&Crime has reached out to Mukasey regarding his decision to join the case, and will update upon receiving a response.

In over 40 segments from March 11 through 13 that discussed President Donald Trump’s firing of Preet Bharara, who was U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, Fox News failed to disclose that Bharara was investigating multiple potential crimes committed by the network, including allegedly hiding financial settlements paid to women who accused former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes of sexual harassment.
Fired US Attorney Preet Bharara Was Investigating Fox News For Potential Crimes, Including Secret Sexual Harassment Settlements
New YorkMagazine: Trump Oversaw Firing Of U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, Who Was “In The Middle Of A High-Profile Federal Investigation Of Fox News.” In a March 12 article, Gabriel Sherman, who has reported extensively about Fox News and its former CEO, Roger Ailes, wrote that President Donald Trump “oversaw the firing of Preet Bharara, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Manhattan.” Sherman noted that Bharara was investigating Fox News for “a number of potential crimes,” including looking into whether executives obtained journalists’ phone records or “committed mail and wire fraud by hiding financial settlements paid to women who accused Roger Ailes of sexual harassment.” Sherman noted that Bharara’s firing could be a “win” for Fox News executive chairman Rupert Murdoch because “the prospect of indictments” in Bharara’s investigation of Fox was “a serious problem” for the network. From the report:
[O]n Saturday Trump oversaw the firing of Preet Bharara, the U.S attorney for the Southern District of Manhattan, whose office is in the middle of a high-profile federal investigation of Fox News. The probe, according to sources, is looking at a number of potential crimes, including whether Fox News executives broke laws by allegedly obtaining journalists’ phone records or committed mail and wire fraud by hiding financial settlements paid to women who accused Roger Ailes of sexual harassment. Sources told me that prosecutors have been offering witnesses immunity to testify before a federal grand jury that’s already been impaneled.
Trump’s decision to fire Bharara ignited speculation that it was designed to blunt investigations like the Fox News probe. In November, Trump had promised Bharara he could remain in the job. But on Friday, he reversed course and requested Bharara’s resignation along with 45 other Obama-appointed U.S. attorneys. (Adding to the intrigue, Trump’s prosecutor purge came less than 24 hours after Sean Hannity said on Fox News that Trump should “purge” the Justice Department of Obama-appointed officials.)
Given that Fox News is Murdoch’s most profitable division, the prospect of indictments is a serious problem. “They’re really worried,” one source close to the network said. Another insider said that Fox News executives considered the investigation “political” because Bharara had been appointed by Barack Obama. Which is why, for Murdoch, it must be a relief that Bharara’s replacement could be an ally. According to the Times, Trump’s shortlist to replace Bharara includes Marc Mukasey — who just happens to be former Fox News chief Roger Ailes’s personal lawyer.
Considering Mukasey’s close relationship with Ailes, he would surely come under pressure to recuse himself from the Fox News probe if he was appointed by Trump to succeed Bharara. “I have no comment,” Mukasey said when I reached him Sunday evening and asked if he planned to do so, should he get the job. *New York*magazine, [3/12/17]
Fox Figures Failed To Mention That Bharara Had Been Investigating The Network
Not One Out Of 49 Fox News Segments Discussing Bharara’s Firing Included A Mention Of His Investigations Into The Network. A Media Matters analysis of mentions of Bharara on Fox News from 1:30 p.m. on March 11, when Bharara tweeted that he had been fired, to 11 p.m. on March 13 found that though the network had over 40 segments either dedicated to or including significant discussion of Bharara’s firing, not one mentioned his investigations into Fox News. Several examples follow:
Fox’s Rob Schmitt Failed To Mention Bharara’s Fox News Investigation While Reporting On His Many Successful “Corruption Cases.” While reporting on Bharara’s firing, Fox News reporter Rob Schmitt noted that Bharara had taken on a number of “corruption cases,” including a potential probe into Trump’s conflicts of interests, but did not mention his investigations into Fox News. From the March 12 edition of Fox News’ America’s News HQ:
ROB SCHMITT: The Preet Bharara saga continues today, though many would argue this is standard procedure being blown way out of proportion. Bharara, along with 45 other U.S. attorneys, lost their jobs on Friday. Normally this would be standard operating procedure, not a lot to talk about, but Bharara tweeted out that he refused to resign when asked and then had to be fired. And making the matter even more complex was a meeting that Bharara had at Trump Tower in late November after the election, when Bharara says Mr. Trump asked him to stay on under his administration. Well Bharara has been a very successful U.S. attorney for Manhattan and other parts of the southern district of New York. He has successfully taken on corruption cases against high-ranking New York politicians who some said were untouchable. Democrats are alleging there is more to this, though -- more to his removal than just standard politics. Evidently on Wednesday, three watchdog groups asked Bharara to investigate Mr. Trump regarding possible conflicts of interest between his businesses and of course his new role as president. Fox News, *America’s News HQ*, [3/12/17]
Fox’s Jeanine Pirro: Preet Bharara “Has A Big Ego,” And Is “Under The Impression That He Is Different.” In a segment on Fox News’ Fox Report, Judge Jeanine Pirro lashed out at Bharara claiming that “instead of taking what he does seriously, he’s taking himself seriously,” accusing the former-U.S. attorney of having “a big ego.” Host Julie Banderas added that Bharara “may be mulling a run for governor,” suggesting “it almost seems like it’s a political ploy.” Neither Banderas or Pirro mentioned Bharara’s investigation into Fox News.
