The appointment of Daniel Goldman, who has “significant” experience pursuing international Russian organized crime, is unlikely to be good news for the president.
A top Democrat in the House leading some of the congressional probes into President Donald Trump and possible Russian collusion has hired a former federal prosecutor from the Southern District of New York with “significant” experience pursuing international Russian organized crime.
Schiff said the new hire, along with other new committee staffers, will help “continue our important work of strong and effective oversight of the nation's intelligence agencies. I look forward to working with them to perform important oversight and investigative work to ensure the security of our country and its institutions,” he said in a statement.
The news comes on the heels of the committee ramping up its wide-ranging investigations into the president, involving Trump’s communications with Russian President Vladimir Putin, the White House security clearance process for his family members and associates and the president allegedly directing former attorney Michael Cohen to lie to Congress.
Trump has increasingly feuded with Schiff since Democrats regained investigative power with their House majority, calling him"Little Shifty Schiff" during his lengthy, expletive laden speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference over the weekend.
