8:23Now PlayingJoe Lieberman is a lifelong corporate shill who works for a law firm tied to Trump. Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola, Jayar Jackson, and Jimmy Dore, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Just 10 days after he fired James Comey as Director of the FBI, Donald Trump reportedly views former Senator Joe Lieberman as the frontrunner to replace the man he fired for investigating Russia’s influence in the 2016 election too vigorously.
Lieberman would be a concerning choice. He would break decades of precedent that FBI directors should come from the criminal justice realm. He holds Bill of Rights protections for American citizens in low regard. And his late-career embrace of the American political right — complete with a move into Trump’s own professional locker room after leaving the Senate — would make for a polarizing and potentially caustic tenure at the embattled domestic security agency.”*
