As Paul Ingrassia’s nomination to lead the Office of Special Counsel languishes, it’s hard to find anyone willing to defend him in Congress.
But the Trump nominee who allegedly sent messages saying he had a “Nazi-streak” does have someone willing to go to bat for him on Capitol Hill: his mom.
Donna Gallo Ingrassia, a New York-based real estate agent, tried to confront the top Democrats on the Judiciary and Oversight Committees, Reps. Jamie Raskin and Robert Garcia, respectively, and defend her son at their offices in late June, according to multiple sources familiar with the situation.
