The Special Counsel's Office: Justice in the Basement
In the summer of 2017, a team of elite prosecutors gathered in the Justice Department's basement-ironically in space recently vacated by the Civil Rights Division that the Trump administration was dismantling. This was the beginning of what would become one of the most scrutinized investigations in American history. Robert Mueller, respected across political lines for his integrity, had been appointed to investigate Russian interference in the 2016 election and possible coordination with the Trump campaign. His expectations were crystal clear from day one when he greeted Andrew Weissmann with a simple question: "When are you going to indict?" Mueller organized the investigation into three specialized teams: Team R investigating Russian interference, Team M focusing on Paul Manafort, and Team 600 examining obstruction of justice. The strategy was straightforward-leverage existing investigations to potentially flip witnesses who might reveal any coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia. This approach mirrored classic organized crime prosecution tactics: start with lower-level figures and work upward through cooperating witnesses. What emerged immediately was the stark contrast between the investigation's urgency and the glacial pace of previous efforts. Despite years of looking into Manafort's suspicious offshore accounts in Cyprus and other tax havens, earlier investigators hadn't even obtained his tax returns. Whether through bureaucratic incompetence or political interference, it was clear the Special Counsel needed to sprint, not walk.
