Then it gets weird. Rick Perry to the rescue???
Read the full article. See what you think.
There are three things wrong with this theory — but I forget what they are.
If I’m not mistaken, obama’s NRLB recess appointments were invalidated because the Senate wasn’t actually in recess when he made them.
It’s very far-fetched and absurd. Perry running DOJ? Get real.
The best option that I can think of is to fire Rosenstein. The person below him is a conservative, and she could take over the supervision of Mueller, even fire him. If we don’t have a conflict, we don’t need a special counsel.
“Rick Perry to the rescue???”???????????

Rick Perry to the rescue???

Semper Trump—if we can keep him?/!

Excellent article by Ambassador @dougkmiec: How Trump could stop the Russia investigation on constitutional grounds

Trump wont be able to make a Recess appointment because the Senate will not go into formal recess. To protect Sessions, they will stay in session by having a call to order every business day by a designated Senator and then in the absence of a Quorum adjourning until the next business day. This will go on until everybody returns after Labor Day. This effectively keeps Trump from firing Sessions and naming a successor and nobody expects him to leave the Deputy AG who appointed Mueller in charge.
lol - The wapo’s fever dreams are spilling out into print.
Good option.
But.... Trump needs to be very careful he does not do a repeat of the Saturday Night Massacre.
Firing Special Investigators and forcing A/G’s to resign can have drastic Nixonian results.
Amazing!
Repubs will do anything to thwart Trump.
Read somewhere Kelly wants to be CoS, which would lead to two more obvious steps. I’ll post back when I recall my source.
“Read the full article. “
It’s the WP.
Kelly as COS? Will that mean that all of trumps Tweets will have to be cleared by him first? Trump really needs a Tweet Censor.
I have never seen a senate go to such great lengths to limit what a president can/cannot do. Imagine doing this to a democratic president.
Who was it that used to referred to as La Raza Rick?
The difference between Nixon’s troubles and Trump seems to be that there has been an open, active coup in progress since the inauguration. There is absolutely no “Republican” Party to remotely cushion this president from this coup, because it is one big Congressional UniParty who want him out.
Trump may as well give it hell. I can’t think of a thing he has to lose for trying to drain the swamp. Obviously, the hill and their media are not going to allow it, if they have to impeach him to stop it. And they will have to impeach to stop Trump.
After that, voting will never matter again in the USA.
Sessions caused paralysis. He has toyed with the problematic edges but has launched NOTHING against those who have sabotaged the country and delivered those edges with which he toys.
Fire Sessions to put make Perry the AG?
What are they smoking?
Perry is a dunce like his predecessor as Texas Gov.
And a Cheap Labor Express stooge just like him, too.
I voted for and supported trump, but unless he curs his “Foot in the Mouth Disease”,he may lose me. His latest attacks on Sessions has really ticked me off. The Scaramucci appointment reminds me of the typical New York city IN YOUR FACE behavior that always was a great irritation in my many associations with people from across the country.
There seem to be constitutional grounds, and also the enormous conflicts of interest of Mueller, Rosenstein and Mueller's hirelings.
Someone in the WH really needs to pull together the best legal experts they can find and brain storm all the possibilities of undoing this string of questionable decisions.
