Thursday

From Wikipedia:

"In 2015, Sauer defended a Catholic priest accused of sexually abusing children. Sauer helped the priest sue his accusers and the police officers who were involved. Prosecutors dropped all charges against the priest, whose record had been fully expunged as of June 17, 2015. Sauer prevailed in the civil lawsuits related to the accusations."

He's in good company in this administration.
