ABC News says Whitaker is a walking conflict of interest because he received donations totaling $1.2 million from conservative groups. Yet, ABC never thought McCabe was conflicted when his wife received $750 thousand from a Clinton confidant. It never thought Orh was conflicted when his wife worked for Fusion GPS and he hid her money from the FBI. It never thought Hillary was conflicted when she received $145 million from Putin for 20% of US uranium. It never thought Rosenstein was conflicted even though he advocated the firing of Comey. It never thought Lynch was conflicted when she met with Clinton on the tarmac and never thought Comey was conflicted when he exonerated Clinton before even interviewing her and a dozen other material witnesses. It never thought Page and Strzok were conflicted even after reading their emails, but suddenly it worried about conflicts of interest now. How curious.
JFK picked his own brother as Attorney General, and Holder and Lynch were drenched in partisan politics.

This guy is an Scumbag two headed snake!
HIGH GEARED MILITARY TROOPS SHOULD BE PREPARED AND READY TO PROTECT AMERICA DEMOCRACY FROM AUTOCRATIC TRUMP – BEFORE HE DESTABILIZE AMERICA!
Muller is illegitimate so the probe is unconstitutional
All I want is weed legalized. Get someone that will do that and Trump will win again in 2020
He should be legally challenged
Shut down probe to piss off the Demon Rats😂😂😂😂
Democrats cry way to fucking much, come on Democrats start civil war already so we can go back to the life should be not you Democrats trying to bring on slavery
A well oiled kakistocracy takes work.
A well oiled kakistocracy takes work.
You see we NEEDED more DEMOCRATS taking back the SENATE
That means nobody can be AG! Everybody have their opinion about muller!
What kind of competent executive hires someone . . . for such an important position . . . without knowing who they are and what their background is?
It's no secret that Trump has wanted Jeff Sessions out of the job FOR ALMOST A YEAR . . . if not more. It is an insult to the intelligence of the American people for him to suggest to us that he has not thought long (pun intended) and hard about who to replace Sessions with and what characteristics he wants in that person.
Either Trump is completely incompetent as a leader and an executive . . . which he is . . . or he knew everything about Whitaker including his preordained plan to shut down the Mueller investigation. Take your pick.
But either way now that this information has been revealed, corrective actions need to occur and Whitaker should be removed.
Judge Napolitano for AG
The short list came from the short bus
How can you hand pick when there is already someone in place?
How long is this person going to continue to get away with all of this things. A regular citizen would have been locked away in Alcatraz or guantanamo. People had been put away for less.
Sounds like this might go to the supreme court. 🙂
yeah right….. you don't know Matt Whitaker. Sure! uh huh….. yeah right. Tell us the one about the three bears!
Walls are closing in on Don the Con.
If Derschowitz had read a few paragraphs more he would know that THE VACANCIES ACT allows the President to appoint a replacement normally requiring a vote . Whitman qualifies under the statute and can be temporary AG for 210 days and iif need be the President can lengthen it to an additional 210 days until he gets a permanent AG approved
He can take his time and there is not a darn thing anyone can say..
MEMO: The DOJ is not there to defend the Trumpster CRIMINAL Enterprise; the DOJ is there to protect America from the Trumpster Criminal Enterprise!

Yesterday Whittaker was AG, now he is interim, temporary AG. Whittaker is a White House plant. Put there as a reward, and a way to see Mullers work.
The administration of criminals, pedophiles, rapists, psychopaths, racists, & misogynists.
He isn't facing a "legal challenge" … he's facing more Democrat obstruction. Remember, this is the party that says any Republican is guilty without evidence, witnesses or a trial.
Well of course! Demonrats well challenge anything the president puts forward.
The attorney general is a part of the executive branch as is the president . The president is in charge of the executive branch and the legislature branch has no authority to appoint the attorney general. Whittaker will be confirmed by the senate and mueller will be investigated and tried under military tribunals
Call it what it is, collusion.
Impeach Trump.
Stop this farce! He’s already part of a scam conspiring…. WTF is going on in US politics?
