U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan appointed by Bill Clinton. Why does this matter? Because U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan today lowered the boom on Hillary Clinton saying: “We wouldn’t be here today if this employee had followed government policy. There was a violation of government policy.” That’s how bad it is for Hillary. Even a federal judge appointed by her corrupt husband smashed her today in what should be big news, but has largely been ignored by the liberal media. Who is U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan?

On June 16, 1994, Judge Sullivan was appointed by President William J. Clinton to serve as United States District Judge for the District of Columbia. Upon his appointment as a United States District Judge, Judge Sullivan became the first person in the District of Columbia to have been appointed by three United States Presidents to three judicial positions.
Since his appointment to the federal court, Judge Sullivan has been appointed by four Chief Judges to serve on both the District of Columbia Judicial Disabilities and Tenure Commission and the District of Columbia Judicial Nomination Commission. Judge Sullivan currently serves as Chair of the Judicial Nomination Commission, a position he has held since 2005. The Judicial Nomination Commission recommends candidates to the President of the United States for judicial appointment to the Superior Court of the District of Columbia and the District of Columbia Court of Appeals and also appoints the Chief Judges for both courts. As Chair of the Judicial Nomination Commission, Judge Sullivan regularly testifies before the Council of the District of Columbia. Judge Sullivan also serves on the United States District Court’s Executive Committee, and he chairs the Court’s Jury Committee, Non-Appropriated Funds Committee and the Inter-Agency Detention Workgroup. From 1998 to 2005, Judge Sullivan served on the United States Judicial Conference Committee on Criminal Law, having been appointed to that position by Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist. Judge Sullivan chaired that committee’s Legislative Subcommittee and, in that capacity, he testified before Committees of the United States House of Representatives on behalf of the Judicial Conference. In 2012, Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr., appointed Judge Sullivan to the Judicial Conference Committee on Space and Facilities.
