President Donald Trump needs to issue a new executive order immediately raising the ethical standards for all federal prosecutors, attorneys and investigators. Instead of firing Special Counsel Robert Mueller outright, Trump as president can change the rules by which Mueller and his staff operate, and he can do it today, unilaterally, taking effect immediately.
Trump should issue an executive order raising ethical standards for all federal attorneys. He has authority and the duty as president under Article II, Section 3, of the Constitution to take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.
The prosecutors work for Trump, along with supporting attorneys and investigators. He is their boss. They are employees of the president, who is the chief law-enforcement officer in the country, and the head of the executive branch
Pro-Hillary attorneys working for Mueller have no interest in finding out what really happened. They donated to Hillary. One was the Clinton Foundations lawyer as late as last year against Larry Klaymans lawsuit for Freedom Watch. Muellers office is not looking for the truth but for Trumps scalp.
Trump should order that every prosecutor, other attorney or investigator acting on behalf of the United States of America shall investigate crimes not people. Law enforcement means solving an actual crime that a complaining witness has reported. While other crimes may often be discovered during the course of a criminal investigation, the investigation must be conducted in good faith.
As a fundamental safeguard of liberty against a 1984 police state, prosecutors should be limited by the existence of and report from complaining witnesses, not launching their own free-ranging adventures. If unusual circumstances call for expanding the scope, the approval of the attorney general or a court should be required.

In addition, a conflict of interest should include a persons personal or professional friendships, family, current or prior working relationship, or other relationships if a reasonable, objective observer would think that the relationship creates a conflict of interest.
A conflict of interest should include when an attorneys, prosecutors or investigators bias prevents him or her from exploring alternative theories, not only actions adverse to the related person. A conflict of interest that causes one to focus only on some of those potentially guilty and excuse or ignore others is a prohibited conflict of interest.
A conflict of interest should include where a prosecutor, other attorney, or investigator has chosen to publicly support or oppose any person who is the target of a legal action by donating to them as a candidate for elected office.
No government attorney should be the sole judge of whether he or she has a conflict of interest. Today, judges and others look into their own souls to decide if they think they are compromised. It should be an objective test.
Trump should immediately fire most of Muellers anti-Trump staff, which is riddled with conflicts of interest. He should order biased individuals terminated by name. Then let Mueller squirm and defend why biased attorneys should continue to contaminate his efforts. Let Democrats, Democrats pretending to be Republicans, the news media and denizens of the swamp defend attorneys who are ethically compromised. That would not end the investigation, only ensure that it is fair.
Innocent until proved guilty. A person should not have the weight of the US GVT or City Hall terrorizing them.
I like.
This Justice Dept only listens to their “Deep State” leader Obama.
love it. That’s our Lindsey
Always a good strategy. Aim for the right, aim for higher ground.
Photos of this Fairy really make me sick. He is scared to death of every single Dem and fights Trump just to piss him off. He should go back to S. Carolina and resume giving head at the local bus station.
Trump has business smarts. Is getting his clock cleaned politically. Hope he is a fast learner.
Idiocy.
The moment the president tried to put any restriction on the SC, everyone, including 90% of Republicans, will ask, what is he trying to hide?
Nixon’s fate was sealed the night he fired Archie Cox.
Secondly, from a legal standpoint, this is BS. It would outlaw all discovery as fruit of the tainted tree.
This is some non-lawyer writer trying to fill up 20 column inches with legal BS.
I take it back. Writer is a lawyer, a CRIMINAL defense lawyer.
Need I say more?
What he needs to do is ask a court to disqualify Mueller because he’s charged with investigating the Obama FBI but he himself was the head of the Obama FBI.
The 4th Amendment says what?
Violators of 4A, what happens to them?
The Grand Jury will be made up of D.C. residents who are probably Democrats. The cards are stacked against Trump. The witch hunt may take many twists and turns for a long, long, time.
I have to wonder if the President is giving Mueller enough rope to hang himself. The President has to know Mueller is out to get him. Is there another quiet investigation going on that we know nothing about? Could be.
Trump should fire all of muellers staff but not Mueller for massive conflict of interest. Tell him he is the independent counsel... Do the work himself.
The grand jury will do whatever Mueller says no matter where it is. It’s the petit jury that’s important. Dershowitz is already sounding the alarm that no Republican can get a fair trial in DC. We need to popularize that notion. Put the judge in a position where he’s got to transfer the venue for the trial if there is one. If Mueller has a case it shouldn’t matter where the trial is.
Something is going on. I cannot believe President Trump is that naive that he can't see the coup developing before his very eyes.
Chicken “coup.”
Is that Linda Cyrus?
