Absolutely scandalous.

When you want to anticipate what this administration will do next, just think, "What would the mafia do?"

Maybe he will sock his irs in opponents

Or send the fbi to wiretap and spy on them!

Oh wait you guys said it was cool when Obama did that so I guess he would have to do something worse

I know!

The knew ag can meet with trumps wife in secret in a tarmac before deciding to not refuse himself into the investigation and have his officials laughing he would never charge trump!

That would be a real scandal the likes we haven’t seen ever

Well I mean yeah under obama, but he was cool so it was ok

I think the euphoria of one of the worst showings in history for the opposition party at the midterms has underpinned the delusion of the crazies.

Getting conflicting information now from a source who is usually spot on. I'm honestly not sure who is in charge of what.

Mueller is not fussed. DAG Rosenstein isn’t fussed. There is nothing Trump can do.

He’s already indicted on at least three counts. One is RICO. A minimum of two are for a separate offense (sources used the plural, ‘counts’ without giving me a number).

Lmfao, spot on? That's a hardcore leftist who's opinion is meaningless.

According to the FOX news, on-site legal expert Judge Napolitano, Trump is again nearing obstruction of Justice with this act since the acting AG has clearly stated a negative opinion on the Mueller probe.

This is a bad move...Trump is likely going to crack-up under pressure.

So when Obama’s doj Lynch pressured people to hurry along the Hillary investigation, and fbi members jokes they knew there is possible way she would ever indict Hillary, and she met the he targets husband on a tarmac and didn’t refuse herself, was that obstruction?

Somehow that was cool, but an ag skeptical of muellers witch hunt, which was supposed to be about Russia but morphed into raiding lawyers for decades old financial info is obstruction?

If the new ag shuts down mueller, then we can talk

But at this point, people are saying obstruction and nothing has been done

Whitaker has a clear conflict of interest in this case though. He wrote an op-ed in 2017 that clearly showed he was biased. He in no way can unbiasedly run the investigation.

Whitaker has previously written an op-ed in 2017 titled "The finances of Trump or his family are beyond Mueller's purview." In that op-ed, Whitaker argued that "any investigation into President Trump's finances or the finances of his family would require Mueller to return to Rod Rosenstein for additional authority under Mueller's appointment as special counsel."

Surely even Trump supporters can see if this moves forward this is an extremely dangerous precedent. The President of the United States is installing a sympathetic supporter to oversee the investigation of the President. That happens in places like Russia, not the US.

Trump feels the pressure now breathing down his backside. He’s acting almost hysterical. Threatening people and generally like the high school bully he's always been...

Now that the Congress can make him turn over his tax returns and
he feels Mueller on his back and his son may get indicted, sure, as well his son-in-law

Trump puts a loyal person in charge and the chips will start falling before the dems will have a chance to blink. I'm expecting the house of cards to come crashing down ASAP. Get ready folks, the sheat is getting ready to hit the fans.

Emperor Mueller has no clothes now.

What an ugly sight!

Spygate declas will make everything clear.

Not even a day removed and here we are, back at it. I would suggest avoiding ATS at all costs for the next several years. This wont stop for quite a while.

a reply to: BlackJackal

It’s a far less danger the lynch meeting the suspects spouse in a tarmac in secret and not refusing herself

Funny all the Dems mad about Whitaker that had no problem with lynch

Hypocrisy at its finest 😌

When I hear the Clintons are taking an extended vacation in a country without an extradition treaty with the US, we will surely know the wrath of God has beset the Democratic party.

Do you hear yourself? You are justifying the President rising above the law with a thinly veiled whataboutism.

There was no need for Lynch to recuse her because the FBI never recommended any charges to the DOJ. So are you still ok with this President being above the law? Surely not, surely since you are true conservative you are all for the rule of law, right?

The FBI recommended that no charges be brought against Clinton, and the matter was dropped.

The President May appoint anyone that he wants. ALL past Presidents appoint AGs that they feel are loyal and will provide support to them.

That's a not a conflict of interest. A conflict of interest would be if Whitaker was himself involved in the probe. He's allowed to have an opinion, the same as any other American.

a reply to: BlackJackal

She still was the one who made the decision and she didn’t revise herself

The fbi investigation was spearheaded by a rabid anti trump Hillary supporter who no one demanded be revised

And Whitaker saying mueller should be limited to Russia, which is what we were all told was what he was investigating doesn’t mean trump is rising above the law
