[Do we like Lausch?]
He’s a TRUMP pick and appears to be familiar with Deep State issues.
The U.S. attorney’s office in Chicago is one of the busiest in the nation, handling everything from terrorism, gang conspiracies and bank robberies to financial fraud and political corruption. The office is a familiar one for Lausch.
He was an assistant U.S. attorney in the Northern District of Illinois from 1999 to 2010. Lausch started out working large-scale gang and drug cases and eventually earned a supervisory position under then-U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald. He was a deputy chief in the Narcotics and Gangs Section for several years, according to a White House announcement. He also helped lead the district’s anti-gang and Project Safe Neighborhoods programs.
