President Donald Trump's legal team backs the idea of appointing a second special counsel to investigate the FBI and Justice Department, a White House spokesman said Monday. The president's attorneys have already signed off on the notion of picking a special counsel to probe U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies' actions during the 2016 presidential campaign, Axios reported Monday, citing White House spokesman Raj Shah. The Justice Department would have to appoint the special prosecutor.
"legal review, national security review led by the White House Counsel's Office, and then within five days, the president will make a decision about declassifying it."
South Carolina senator Lindsey Graham is renewing his call for a second special counsel in the wake of the release of a GOP-drafted memo that alleges politically-motivated surveillance abuses. “I like the FBI, I like the Department of Justice. But we need a special counsel to look at potential abuses of power,” Graham said during an appearance on a local NBC broadcast in Augusta, Georgia. “Somebody needs to watch the watchers.”

Edit: If a Special Counsel investigation is launched, the Memo war will quickly fade into oblivion. I'm sick of finger pointing without showing the evidence. Reminds me of 90% of ATS political posts.

UH OH.. I see there's an ongoing thread on this BOMBSHELL already.
Out of respect for the O.P. (Grambler), I'm bowing out of this one.

As we see, firing people is considered obstruction.
Even when it was recommended by The DOJ. LOL...
