You're seeing the opening salvos of an entirely new lawfare assault they're preparing to unleash after the midterms. In this case, they're going after someone's daughter, which is already an absolutely despicable thing to do, but it gets even worse because she has absolutely nothing to do with the alleged wrongdoing either (notice the deliberate sleight of hand, ie. it's the firm that represents the client, not the daughter). We saw the same playbook yesterday with that made-up Don Jr. story, which they were forced to pull. Unfortunately, I expect we're going to see a hell of a lot more of this after the midterms.
