Wine-Banksâ interest in message pins began shortly after May 9, 2017 , when FBI Director James Comey was fired by President Trump, the act that triggered the hiring of Special Counsel Robert Mueller. âI had written an op-ed for the Chicago Tribune, which generated a lot of calls from television stations.

In that capacity, in the proceedings before Judge John Sirica, she was responsible for cross-examining President of the United States Richard Nixon 's secretary Rose Mary Woods about the 18#N#+#N#1â2 minute gap on the Watergate tapes.

Woods had claimed to have kept her foot on the pedal on the tape recorder, and Wine-Volner succeeded in demonstrating that this was implausible.
