.@POTUS has named Dana Boente, US Attorney for the Eastern District of VA as Acting Attorney General. Sally Yates has been relieved.

She will be beloved in liberal law schools (i.e., almost all law schools) and will get loads of cash thrown at her now. Yates won’t suffer a bit, but at least we are rid of her. I just how this Dana Boente can be relied upon to be professional and do his job.... he is, after all, an Obama/Holder guy. But one hopes the WH had good reason to believe he can be trusted to be professional, unlike Yates.

It can’t get any better than this.

Trust this old guy when I tell you, nobody has ever seen any sh!t like this...

“Laura Rozen
;@lrozen

Trump has the authority to fire Yates, but ..as top Senate confirmed official at DOJ, she is the only 1 authorized to sign FISA warrants”

I don’t think this is true. Anyone know?
FISA warrants can only be requested by a Senate-confirmed appointee IIRC, but seems there should be more than one in the Department.

This is another Obama appointee. Hope she can behave herself.

If not, then she'll also be fired by President Trump!

[Not A Snowbird]

[rdl6989]

She’s fired!

[ozarkgirl]

LOL! Love it!!

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Bc the new guy is likely to do the same thing and say he’s not going to enforce. We shall see.

Then he will be dismissed, too. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Stephen Miller has confidence in the new appointee (Tucker Carlson Show).
I feel better now.

[dynoman]

Trump knew that.

The Democrats are delaying my cabinet picks for purely political reasons. They have nothing going but to obstruct. Now have an Obama A.G.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 31, 2017

Just saw a pro- Jeff Sessions for AG ad on FoxNews, encouraging everyone to call their senators and insist they vote to confirm Sessions

I also believe we should be ringing McConnell’s phone off the hook to get in gear and NOT ALLOW any further foot-dragging from the communists aka democrats.
