David, you mentioned aggressive discovery as a counter to defamation suits. This worked effectively against disgraced evangelical pastor James McDonald when he sued critical bloggers. Why wouldn’t the same strategy work here? Every White House aid hiding from a congressional subpoenas could be subpoenaed in this civil action and have to testify under oath direct to the mainstream media or their counsel.
As a recovering lawyer who did his time in private "Bar Advocate" cases in MA, I resonate with the observations about the quality of lawyering "on the ground". And I include the well paid private counsel! And don't get me started on some of the judges!
