And now we know the EXACT reason why Trump considered Lieberman as FBI Director.

President Donald Trump is reportedly no longer considering former Senator Joe Lieberman as a possible replacement for fired FBI director James Comey. While concerns about Lieberman's lack of law enforcement experience and his ties to a law firm that has done business on Trump's behalf were reportedly part of the reason for Trump's reversal, Lieberman's recent history would have made him a problematic pick. He has spent the last few years advising corporations on how to deal with law enforcement investigations. He also has links to a corner of the financial world that was lately the subject of law enforcement scrutiny and he represented a financial industry group in its legal efforts to prevent poverty-stricken Puerto Rico from restructuring its debt.

Lieberman, a former Democratic senator from Connecticut, is currently a lawyer at the Kasowitz Benson and Torres — the namesake firm of Marc Kasowitz, who has just been named Donald Trump’s personal lawyer in the ongoing probe of alleged links between the White House and Russian officials. Kasowitz and Lieberman have a longstanding relationship; Kasowitz worked on the latter’s political campaigns back in the 1970s. As FBI director, Lieberman would have been in a position to steer — and potentially end — a probe of Kasowitz’s client.
