“She has deep knowledge of the department, is extremely bright, well organized and a good manager, excellent judgment,” said Jack Goldsmith, a Harvard Law School professor who headed the Office of Legal Counsel when Brand headed legal policy. “She is principled, tough-minded and truly thoughtful.

*Goldsmith is a conservative Harvard law professor of some renown who is critical of Trump's malfeasance.
