Jasmin and Barry Ruback (DC) welcomed friends and family from all over the world to celebrate the bat mitzvah of their brilliant and talented daughter, Miriam Rose Ruback, on February 10th. Guests included Beth and Mike Wolak (DC) and Nathan Wise (DC).

At the bat mitzvah, Barry, Mike, and Beth were discussing Ed Zelinsky’s eldest son (all three of his sons are attorneys), who is a highly-regarded Conservative legal expert (his dad is a Democrat, as you’ll recall) — who just happens to be on the Special Prosecutor’s select panel investigating the president’s involvement in Russian investments and Russia’s interference in the 2016 election (among other issues, I imagine). Beth, Mike, and Barry keep current on such careers as Zelinsky The Younger (he clerked for a Supreme Court Justice), and they hold Robert Mueller in the highest esteem.
