He was at the White House as President Donald Trump declared a national emergency to fulfill his pledge to build a border wall. Trump told him to “enjoy your life.”
What does that mean? Ah - he looked “bad” on tv - even to his audience of one. So he is now relegated to someone Trump hardly knows and gets a dismissive good bye comment.
Lay Low Mr. WitlessWhitaker, your bumpy ride, I predict, is just going to get bumpier.
Eventually he’ll get his marching orders from Team Schlapp about firing Mueller.
Surprised he didn’t end up at the re election committee along with the others being paid hush money.
“Former Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker remains at the Justice Department, but in a very different role.”
Was expecting to hear that he was now a bouncer.
At least he hasn’t immediately become the new Chief of Staff at the WH.
Once again I wonder who is in charge of Mueller atm? Since Whitaker is no longer AG, and there likely is a time gap between now and when Barr takes over, does that mean the Deputy AG is once again in charge of it? If so, would be a good time for Mueller to do some things.
“Whitaker, who last week appeared before the House Judiciary Committee, now works in the office of the associate attorney general.”
Good. Now Gerald Nadler the House Judiciary Chairman won’t have far to look when he brings him back to the committee to testify again.
Hah! you beat me to it. Came to post the exact same thing.
His old role was to funnel info to the WH ……
Nothing’s changed …… new role my ass ----
Whitaker is gonna find out what it’s like to be subpoenaed before long. As for Barr, I don’t think he’s going to enjoy much for the next two years or however long he’s able to stay on the crazy train.
Good! This makes it harder for the BDT salesman to evade Gerry Nadler’s full court press regarding untruthful testimony before House Judiciary committee
I think they kept him at DoJ so they could pay his upcoming legal bills.
That office oversees the Justice Department’s civil litigation as well as matters including civil rights, environmental and antitrust.
All the important stuff Mr. Whitaker is well-versed in. Alright Matt!
Yeah, that was ambiguously worded. Did Trump tell Barr or Whitaker to enjoy life? According to the logic of the sentence, it should be Barr. But that really doesn’t make much sense.
Tea boy.
“upcoming legal bills” will hopefully end the careers of many of these pricks. Plus the NRA too.
Indictments baby, Indictments, keep 'em coming!
Mrs Whitaker should be happy that at least the hubby will be getting a paycheck, at least for a few more weeks. But she better start stocking the jugs of cheap Chardonnay. Cue-ball himself will be down to drinking Thunderbirds in Skid Row once Congress is done with him.
I think Ivanka and the Kush have to approve that hiring first.
