Of course DOJ agrees with its so called puppet mastered potus! It is apparently clear to me the people who made this fake ass decision wants to destroy America too, just like Putin wants them too.
Having a hard time believing people are this damn STUPID l!
Apparently a lot of things don’t technically violate a document that was written 250 years ago by wealthy white male landowners. Who knew?
I don’t know the technical legalities of this issue. I do know that Whitaker is manifestly and inarguably unqualified for the position, just another gritting hack elevated to protect our grifter in chief.
If he isn’t a principal officer, does that mean that he doesn’t have the power to make decisions?
uh huh.
Please proceed…
But you’re gonna need a bigger hole…
John Yoo wrote the “torture” justification opinion out of the OLC. Just sayin’.
This is a joke. This is banana republic stuff. But then again, maybe we’ve been there ever since this jackass was elected president. 
SMH…
It shall from this day forth be known as the Department of Trump.
oh God, you’re right. I forgot about that. Another shining moment in our glorious history …
He sounds nice.
New acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker said in 2014 that judges without a New Testament “biblical view of justice,” should not serve on the federal bench and suggested that he would block the appointment of non-Christian judges if given the chance.
While Whitaker singled out atheists in particular as being unfit to serve, his comments also extended to Jewish and Muslim Americans.
He is what he looks like - a thug. Hitler would have hired him in nothing flat.
Well if the administration’s argument is that Whittaker is NOT a principal officer than Whittaker should be precluded from exercising the powers of a principal officer…in other words he can only maintain the status quo until a replacement is nominated and confirmed.
All that matters is whether he recuses, and the same ethics office that told Sessions to will probably tell him to also…
The rest is noise.
Blah, Blah, Blah. Let the courts decide. Even though the R’s are stacking the courts, the courts do not seem to be Trump’s best friend these days.
I thought firing Sessions was supposed to be a red line for Senate Republicans. Can they require immediate confirmation hearings for Whitaker and then reject him? The sooner the Republicans learn to say “NO” to Trump the less damage he can do to their party and more importantly, the country.
Nop way this bastard would ever be confirmed by the Senate, so that’s why Trump is doing it as interim. But what kind of death wish does Whitaker has to accept this role? What’s in for him? He is going to get his ass roasted on day 1 of the new congress no matter what he does.
To find one of the precedents they needed, the authors of the memo released today had to go back to the Civil War era.
And their precedent happened two years before Congress created the Department of Justice.
IF he recuses and god I hope he does, Trump really may explode.
