Russia probe witness expects Brett Kavanaugh to be ‘good ally’ in case as he fights Mueller subpoena

An associate of Trump advisor Roger Stone who is fighting a subpoena to appear before Robert Mueller's grand jury says he expects the Supreme Court's newest justice to help his case.

Andrew Miller is currently in contempt of court for refusing to submit to questions under oath before the grand jury in the Washington, D.C. area.

“I’m not a criminal. I’m a witness,” Miller said in a radio interview with Stone ally Michael Caputo. “So why am I being dragged across the country? I don’t live in the Northeast. They’re the ones who get paid to do this. Why is he not flying to me?”

Miller would have his travel paid for and get a daily fee.

Caputo, the radio host, said he connected Miller with his attorneys in order to fight the subpoena and have the special counsel removed on "on constitutional grounds."

The men like their chances of accomplishing that better now that Kavanaugh, who has a "radical" view of executive power, is on the Supreme Court.

“He would be a good ally because he has talked about these cases before in terms of presidential power and also limiting the power of the government in many cases and he’s also written about this very issue of the constitutionality of the independent counsel,” Miller's lawyer said. “He’d be a great justice to rule on the case.”

Kavanaugh repeatedly refused to say he would recuse himself from hearings cases involving Trump.
