The DOJ thinks its the 4th branch of government. This needs to end.

There still something weird about all this that’s hard to wrap one’s head around.
Lets say it is worst case scenario: That the DOJ has gone rogue against the rest of the government, with the FBI in tow, and the congress cannot execute oversight due to stonewalling, and the executive branch which should have control if it cannot because the President is said to be under investigation and removal of corrupt/rogue figures would be called interference. You then have no one left to prosecute or reign in the threat, as the CIA and NSA are charged with dealing with foreign threats, not domestic/internal. You have the outside shot that Utah prosecutor appointed by session can investigate this, but they are actually charged with investigating the FBI/DOJ, so who would Huber call upon for protection if the rogue powers wanted to coerce/corupt/intimidate/obstruct them? Federal Marshals?
This all just doesn’t wash.
Something is either much much much worse than we think, or it’s really all a huge fake distractional ruse and much much less than we think (presumably for the consumption and baiting of foreign actors for the purposes of investigating them).
Theoretically, if this was certain people gone rogue to protect themselves (because of Uranium one?) and all the right people in congress and the supreme court were informed, Trump could fire them all, order their clearances removed, and let the all the good cops and judges to their jobs.
