So in some fun new impeachment news. By this point we know that a couple of attorneys that were assisting trump against the impeachment have left and now we just found out who is replacing them.
The new lawyers are David Schoen and Bruce Caster. Now those names probably aren't familiar because who remembers the names of lawyers in cases but they both have some interesting history. Schoen previously represented Rodger Stone.
Caster is the more... lets say interesting. He is a former Pennsylvania district attorney, known for his decision not to prosecute Bill Cosby in 2005 after Bill was accused of sexual assault. Then in 2017 he also sued Cosby's accuser for defamation, claiming that she destroyed his political career in retaliation.
So yeah, they fit trump to a T.
