Seven things you need to know about the Obama donor prosecuting Dinesh D’Souza

The letter quoted Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz’s statement that D’Souza appears to be the victim of “selective prosecution.”

--------

Bharara is an Obama appointee and Obama inaugural donor, records reveal. The man who has positioned himself as an anti-Wall Street corruption crusader cut his teeth as a protege of Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer and is now a top prospect for an Attorney General gig in a Hillary Clinton administration. Here are seven facts you need to know about Bharara:

1. Donated to Obama’s inauguration four months before earning an Obama appointment to his current job as U.S. Attorney

Bharara, then based in Bethesda, Maryland, contributed $324 to Obama’s 2009 inauguration, according to a database maintained by the Center for Responsive Politics. Obama nominated Bharara to be U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York on May 15, 2009. Obama called Bharara and his fellow May 15 nominees “fair, tenacious and respected attorneys throughout their careers” who “will serve their country with distinction as U.S. Attorney.”

2. Was rumored to replace Eric Holder as Attorney General in the Obama administration

Bharara was the subject of growing February 2012 speculation in Washington, D.C. that he would replace Holder as Attorney General if Obama won re-election. A Bharara spokesperson declined to deny the speculation but said that Bharara is uninterested in leaving his U.S. Attorney job “so long as the President will have him.”

3. Rumored to be a top prospect for an Attorney General job in a Hillary Clinton administration in 2017

“I think it is a mistake to see him as a guy who wants to run for office. But he could be a well-received choice for Hillary [Clinton] as her [U.S. attorney general] if he wins these cases on public corruption and keeps winning the insider trading cases,” one of New York City’s top political consultants told Crain’s Insider in April.

4. Protege of Chuck Schumer

“The baldly political and brass-knuckled Mr. Schumer set Mr. Bharara on the very course that has led him to where he is now as U.S. attorney for the Southern District of that state and one of the most visible prosecutors in the country,” wrote columnist Charles Hurt.

$324?
Really? We are really going to bring up a donation of that size?

Are you really going to focus on only one qualification for dismissal under president Trump?

It goes to show they are an Obama holdover and part of the unelected shadow government deep state.
A 300 dollar donation does nothing of the sort.

Yes it does it proves they are political regardless they serve at the discretion of the POTUS, nothing out of the ordinary just another Trump went to dinner with his family fake scandal created out of nothing by the DNC and their willing collaborators in the MSM.

Nope. I am stating that this particular critique is utter bullshit. It cheapens that argument on the whole to bring up such immaterial things that try and make connections without actually making them (he donated before being appointed as though it has something to do with his appointment).

I have already stated my position on this - it is standard practice. Much ado about nothing. The president has the authority to dismiss people in certain positions as he sees fit. In this case he seen fit to do so. Beyond that, I could care less what his reason is nor do I even care to know it. He has the authority to do so and the questions/criticisms should stop there unless there is some evidence that the removal was not kosher. Such has not even been brought up by the detractors so I can only surmise that the naysayers are simply upset because it is something that Trump did.
 
Liberal media bias at its finest: Obama “replaces” US attorneys, Trump “ousts” them. same reporter.

Non story pretty much every President does this. It has been pointed out many times these attorneys serve at the lesiure of the President no matter who it is and they can be fired at anytime and many have been over the years.
