Top 20 Mary McCord Fun Facts The DOJ puppeteer who redefined the word “Justice”

By: Doug Ross, March 22, 2025; In the shadowy intersection where law meets power, few figures have wielded as much influence with as little accountability as Mary McCord.

From the halls of the Justice Department to congressional impeachment chambers, McCord has left fingerprints on virtually every controversial legal action against political opponents that defined an era.
While Americans slept, this career bureaucrat reportedly engineered surveillance of political campaigns, twisted centuries-old laws into political weapons, and transformed constitutional protections into optional guidelines.

As a former Acting Assistant Attorney General for National Security who seamlessly transitioned to partisan impeachment counsel, McCord represents the embodiment of what critics call “the deep state” — unelected power brokers who manipulate the levers of justice to serve political ends while insulated from any accountability.

1. Role in Carter Page FISA Warrant (2016-2017)

  • Supervised DOJ’s approval of deeply flawed FISA surveillance application
  • Failed to adequately verify FBI claims before seeking intrusive surveillance powers
  • Overlooked crucial exculpatory evidence contradicting probable cause claims
  • Because nothing says “protecting the Fourth Amendment” quite like rubber-stamping warrants to spy on American citizens based on a political campaign’s opposition research.

2. Failure to Disclose FISA Issues (2017)

  • Omitted disclosure of critical exculpatory information to FISA court
  • Allowed surveillance renewals to proceed despite growing evidence of problems
  • Maintained surveillance despite collapsing factual foundation
  • When the FBI withholds exculpatory evidence, it’s called misconduct. When DOJ leadership like McCord does it, it’s called “professional oversight.” Funny how constitutional protections develop amnesia when politically convenient.

3. Michael Flynn “Logan Act” Push (2017)

  • Championed prosecutorial theory based on obscure 1799 law never successfully used
  • Stretched statutory intent beyond recognition to target incoming administration official
  • Applied unprecedented legal standard to routine diplomatic transition conversations
  • Nothing demonstrates legal expertise quite like dusting off a law unused since the Adams administration to target your political opponents. Perhaps next she’ll prosecute someone for allowing their horse to graze on the White House lawn.

4. White House Visit with Yates (January 2017)

  • Made unprecedented visit to warn White House counsel about Flynn
  • Participated in meeting widely seen as political trap for new administration
  • Helped orchestrate confrontation rather than following normal protocol
  • Most DOJ officials communicate concerns through established channels. McCord preferred the “ambush the new administration” approach. Such a refreshing take on the peaceful transition of power our democracy depends on.

5. Support for Flynn Prosecution (2017)

  • Backed FBI’s interview of Flynn despite agents concluding he wasn’t deceptive
  • Supported continuation of case after original investigative purpose expired
  • Prioritized securing prosecution over evidence of innocence
  • Due process is such an inconvenient detail when you’re trying to bag Trump. Why let “truth” and “evidence” get in the way of a perfectly good prosecution?

6. Transition to Schiff’s Impeachment Counsel (2019)

  • Moved directly from DOJ to lead impeachment effort against Trump
  • Leveraged inside DOJ knowledge in partisan congressional role
  • Represented seamless transition from executive to legislative branch attacks
  • The revolving door between “neutral” DOJ official and partisan impeachment counsel spun so fast it could power a small city. Nothing says “impartial justice” like immediately joining the opposition’s impeachment team.

7. Whistleblower Complaint Involvement (2019)

  • Allegedly served as intermediary for Ukraine call whistleblower
  • Participated in coordinating complaint outside normal intelligence channels
  • Used legal expertise to shape and advance politically damaging allegations
  • When normal whistleblower procedures don’t guarantee your desired political outcome, just create your own special back-channel process! The rule of law works best when you can rewrite it on the fly.

8. FISA Court Amicus Appointment (2020)

  • Appointed by controversial, Democrat activist Judge Judge Boasberg to advise on FISA reforms
  • Selected to help fix the very system she helped destroy
  • Given oversight role despite her direct involvement in rampant FISA abuse
  • Only in Washington could someone be appointed to reform the exact system they helped corrupt. It’s like appointing an arsonist as Fire Chief.

9. Op-Ed Defending DOJ Actions (2020)

  • Published New York Times piece attacking AG Barr over Flynn case dismissal
  • Claimed her words were “twisted” while offering misleading account
  • Attempted to shift blame rather than acknowledge oversight failures
  • Nothing demonstrates accountability like writing a self-serving op-ed that blames everyone else for your failures. The passive voice was deployed, mistakes were made, responsibility was avoided.

10. Charlottesville Litigation (2017-2019)

  • Led legal efforts targeting specific political groups’ assembly rights
  • Advanced novel theories to restrict constitutional protections for disfavored speech
  • Used civil litigation to achieve government speech control objectives
  • The First Amendment apparently has a “unless Mary McCord finds your views repugnant” clause that constitutional scholars somehow missed for 230 years. Such judicial innovation!

11. Paramilitary Ban Advocacy (2020-2021)

  • Pushed legislation to outlaw citizen militias despite Second Amendment implications
  • Advocated for broad restrictions on constitutional assembly rights
  • Sought to criminalize political organization outside mainstream parameters
  • The Second Amendment is absolute—until McCord decides which “well-regulated militias” are acceptable. Constitutional textualism with a side of “except for those people over there.”

12. January 6 Task Force Role (2021)

  • Helped shape House investigation narrative targeting Trump supporters
  • Assisted in developing selective prosecutorial framework
  • Influenced public perception of defendants before trial
  • The presumption of innocence is just a tradition, acshually.

13. Prosecuting Trump Podcast (2023-2025)

  • Co-hosted partisan MSNBC platform focused solely on Trump’s legal troubles
  • Used legal expertise to shape public expectations of guilt
  • Blurred lines between legal analysis and advocacy
  • Nothing says “commitment to impartial justice” like hosting a podcast literally called “Prosecuting Trump.” Next season: “Presumed Guilty: How We Know It Before The Trial.”

14. Election Violence Preparedness (2024)

  • Led initiative defining “violence” in politically selective fashion
  • Framed peaceful conservative activities as potential threats
  • Developed frameworks treating political opposition as security concerns
  • Free speech is sacred—unless McCord’s team decides your speech might lead to “violence,” a term conveniently defined to include whatever political expression they find troublesome this week.

15. Crossfire Hurricane Oversight (2016-2017)

  • Supervised early stages of investigation targeting Trump campaign
  • Failed to establish appropriate predicates for counter-intelligence investigation
  • Allowed political research to drive national security apparatus
  • Most DOJ officials require actual evidence before investigating presidential candidates. McCord’s innovation was realizing that partisan gossip works just as well and is so much easier to find!

16. Clinesmith FISA Scandal Link (2017)

  • Oversaw department during falsification of evidence for FISA court
  • Failed to implement safeguards preventing tampering with evidence
  • Created environment where altering evidence was career-advancing rather than career-ending
  • Under McCord’s watch, altering evidence became merely a “professional shortcut” rather than a crime. How refreshing to see such flexibility in constitutional interpretation!

17. Anti-Trump Legal Commentary (2017-2025)

  • Leveraged former DOJ role for media platform targeting specific political figure
  • Used status as former official to add weight to partisan legal interpretations
  • Abandoned pretense of neutrality while trading on government credentials
  • Nothing upholds the dignity of the Department of Justice quite like becoming a partisan talking head the moment you leave. The oath to uphold the Constitution apparently expires with your government email account.

18. National Task Force on Election Crises (2020)

  • Partnered exclusively with left-leaning advocacy organizations
  • Developed one-sided “crisis” framework benefiting particular political outcomes
  • Used legal expertise to create veneer of neutrality for partisan election initiatives
  • Election integrity works best when you only invite people who already agree with you to your “nonpartisan” task force. Diversity of thought is so overrated when you already know who the bad guys are.

19. Support for Mueller Investigation (2017-2019)

  • Helped shape expansive special counsel investigation
  • Supported probe despite diminishing evidence of original predicate
  • Advocated for open-ended investigation without clear limitations
  • The Constitution’s protections against unlimited government investigations apparently come with a “unless we really don’t like the target” exception clause that only former DOJ officials can see.

20. Perceived DOJ Politicization (2016-2017)

  • Central figure in transformation of DOJ into political instrument
  • Helped normalize using national security tools against political opposition
  • Contributed to collapse of public trust in justice system impartiality
  • McCord’s greatest achievement was helping transform the DOJ from America’s premier law enforcement agency into what critics call “the Democrats’ law firm with nuclear weapons.” Such innovation in constitutional governance!

Given the pattern of alleged constitutional violations spanning multiple years and institutions, former officials like Mary McCord should face formal legal scrutiny through the appointment of a Special Counsel with full investigative powers.

The potential violations of 18 U.S.C. § 242 (deprivation of rights under color of law), 18 U.S.C. § 1001 (false statements), and 18 U.S.C. § 371 (conspiracy against rights) merit professional investigation free from political interference.

Bar associations should review these activities for potential ethics violations, while state attorneys general should examine whether their courts were misled by information provided under McCord’s oversight.

The constitutional guardrails she appears to have bypassed exist precisely to prevent the weaponization of justice against political opponents. If accountability remains selective and one-sided, Americans will conclude their nation has abandoned equal justice under law for the dangerous proposition that some officials stand above it.

The republic cannot long endure such a perversion of its founding principles.
