Mr. Williams' specialties?

Criminal enforcement of insider trading, accounting fraud, market manipulation, mismarking of complex financial products, and fraudulent investment schemes!

Remember that crooked GOP Congressman, Chris Collins, who Trump *pardoned?*

Williams prosecuted him.

Williams also prosecuted various defendants for insider trading based on so-called “political intelligence” stolen from federal agencies and traded upon by hedge funds.

GOSH I WONDER WHO TRADED ON INSIDER KNOWLEDGE DURING TRUMP?
