The Special Counsel Investigation was created to investigate any possible Russian government efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election, and look into any possible links between Trump with the Russians.

In 2018, diGenova attracted attention once more by calling for the firing of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. He also alleged that the Russian interference investigation team headed by Robert Mueller were “legal terrorists”.
