Roger Stone associate Andrew Miller says he is "cool as a cucumber" now that Brett Kavanaugh is on the Supreme Court, believing the newly confirmed justice would rule in his favor should his challenge to Special Counsel Robert Mueller's authority reach the highest court in the land.

CNN:
Andrew Miller previously worked as an aide to Stone, a longtime Trump ally who is under scrutiny in the Russia investigation. Miller was subpoenaed earlier this year to testify before the special counsel's grand jury. Instead of complying, he waged a legal battle to invalidate Mueller's authority to act as a prosecutor. A federal judge ruled against him, holding him in contempt of court for failing to testify, and he has appealed to the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

Asked how he feels about Kavanaugh's presence on the court, as someone who might be sympathetic to his case, Miller said, "I feel nothing but great. I'm cool as a cucumber now."

Kavanaugh would be "very good on this issue," Miller's attorney Paul Kamenar said on WBEN.

"He would be a good ally," Kamenar said of Kavanaugh, "because he has talked about these cases before in terms of presidential power and limiting the power of the government and has written about this very issue of the constitutionality of the independent counsel."
