At first glance, it might seem like inside baseball<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A bunch of former prosecutors and cable pundits talking to each other about how much they don\u2019t like Donald Trump<\/a> and how he\u2019s in deep legal trouble? Doesn\u2019t that happen every day in green rooms and the corner bar?<\/p>\n

But this, as disclosed by Politico<\/a>, is different. These are some of the most prominent commentators in the media universe, and they appear to be consulting\/coordinating\/conspiring about their main target.<\/p>\n

DAVID PECKER CALMLY LINKS TRUMP, MICHAEL COHEN TO SUPPRESSING STORIES, PUSHING FAKE NEWS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Even if that\u2019s not the case, it looks awful.<\/p>\n

It plays into the hands of conservatives who back Trump that the media are part of the resistance<\/a>, determined to bring him down at all costs.<\/p>\n

They can now say that it is a cabal, confirming all their darkest suspicions about the press determined to bring him down.<\/p>\n

Every Friday, these media hotshots join in a secret, off-the-record Zoom<\/a> call.<\/p>\n

In a high-road description, the piece says the goal is to “intellectually stress-test the arguments facing Trump on his journey through the American legal system.” But a beat later it says, “most are united by their dislike of Trump.”<\/p>\n

The origins of the group are telling, beginning during the Jan. 6 hearings<\/a>, when committee staffers began briefing legal commentators on their work. I can think of classified military matters that haven\u2019t remained secret as long.<\/p>\n

TRUMP BLASTS JUDGE AFTER BARRING HIM FROM ATTENDING IMMUNITY ARGUMENTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Who\u2019s doing the zooming? Norman Eisen, an Obama administration official<\/a> who worked with House Democrats on Trump\u2019s first impeachment and is a CNN legal analyst, is the founder.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He\u2019s joined by Bill Kristol, a leader of the anti-Trump conservatives; longtime Harvard law professor Laurence Tribe; Watergate figure John Dean; and George Conway, ex-husband of Kellyanne, co-founder of the Lincoln Project and a fixture on MSNBC.\u00a0<\/p>\n

AT A TURNING POINT? COLUMBIA ARRESTS AND ANTI-JEWISH HARASSMENT SHUT DOWN CAMPUS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

That\u2019s just the beginning. There is MSNBC analyst Andrew Weissman, who investigated the fruitless Russian collusion accusations against Trump as a prosecutor for Bob Mueller; why would anyone doubt his objectivity?<\/p>\n

There are CNN legal analysts Jeffrey Toobin, Elliott Williams and Karen Agnifilo, along with L.A. Times columnist Harry Litman. And there\u2019s Mary McCord, a former DOJ official who co-hosts an MSNBC podcast.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sometimes there are guests, which is also revealing. After Trump was held liable in E. Jean Carroll\u2019s first defamation and sexual assault suit, her attorney, Roberta Kaplan, addressed the group. And, says Politico, former conservative judge J. Michael Luttig, who spearheaded a campaign to kick Trump off state ballots under the 14th Amendment, was another guest. The Supreme Court<\/a> rejected the anti-democratic move.<\/p>\n

Despite efforts to rationalize this as a meeting-of-great-minds exercise, I\u2019m not buying it. Even Politico concedes the calls could “breed groupthink” \u2013 what a shocking thought.<\/p>\n

And cable news drives plenty of other coverage, particularly when certain themes are constantly pounded.<\/p>\n

All these folks are smart enough to think for themselves. Which makes it surprising that they lack the common sense to see how troubling the Zooming looks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
