Stop waiting for the constitutional crisis that President Trump is sure to provoke. It’s here.
On Sunday, via Twitter, Trump demanded that the Justice Department concoct a transparently political investigation, with the aim of smearing veteran professionals at Justice and the FBI and also throwing mud at the previous administration. Trump’s only rational goal is casting doubt on the probe by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, which appears to be closing in.
Trump’s power play is a gross misuse of his presidential authority and a dangerous departure from long-standing norms. Strongmen such as Russia’s Vladimir Putin use their justice systems to punish enemies and deflect attention from their own crimes. Presidents of the United States do not — or did not, until Sunday’s tweet:

The article is authored by co-conspirator Eugene Robinson. I think Eugene has a conflict of interest.
Eugene is a douchebag from way back.
.
Robinson was “triggered” by Mark Levin’s program yesterday.
It outlined the complete foundational lack of constitutional authority of the entire Mueller witch hunt.
The scam is hopeless and crumbling.
How could there be a Constitutional Crisis if President Trimp’s Administration works within the constraints of the Constitution?

>> “But there is no such thing as a DOJ that the president must not interact with.” <<
Correct!
The DOJ is an extension of the President’s mission, and authority.
.
For 40 yrs we’ve been backing up before the political, civil and social aggression of these people and the result is that they are literally delusional.
An attempt at a deep state coup is not a Constitutional crisis?
What did Trump request? He requested legally authorized people be tasked with looking into possible criminal behavior.
I once thought that to be a millionaire or billionaire you had to be incredibly smart.
Nope, even incredibly stupid people can get lucky.
Will you take your crow with catsup Eugene?
leftist propagandists always accuse the other side of the things they do themselves ... it’s one of the best ways to muddy the water of truth ...
“I would say that President Trump is being too gentle and that he needs to take swift action to end the bogus Witch Hunt and the employment of everyone associated with it.”
Congress needs to do it.
Cap special counsels in both time and money.
My yard may need my constant care on election day.
“the Attorney General may request that the Special Counsel provide an explanation for any investigative or prosecutorial step, and may after review conclude that the action is so inappropriate or unwarranted under established Departmental practices that it should not be pursued.”
“The Special Counsel may be disciplined or removed from office only by the personal action of the Attorney General.”
“The Attorney General may remove a Special Counsel for misconduct, dereliction of duty, incapacity, conflict of interest, or for other good cause, including violation of Departmental policies. The Attorney General shall inform the Special Counsel in writing of the specific reason for his or her removal.”
“...90 days before the beginning of each fiscal year, the Special Counsel shall report to the Attorney General the status of the investigation, and provide a budget request for the following year. The Attorney General shall determine whether the investigation should continue and, if so, establish the budget for the next year.”
28 CFR 600
Hehe correct
[and the result is that they are literally delusional]
Yes, yes they are. To a scary and dangerous level.
The Dem Sheeple are going to be suicidal, but the spinners like this fool must know bad, bad days are coming.
Little known fact: One million brains the size of Eugene Robinson’s can rest on the head of a pin.
.
The “special counsel” had to be appointed by an officer that was constitutionally empowered to do so.
Rosie definitely was not.
Thus no “special counsel” exists.

Well known fact: One ego the size of Eugene Robinson’s cannot rest on the foundation of the Great Pyramid!

The Constitutional crisis was in the leadership of the CIA, FBI and DOJ (undoubtedly with the knowledge and acquiescence of the 44th President of the United States) fomenting rebellion against the 45th President of the United States, who was duly elected during the 2016 Presidential Election.
End the crisis by having the following people tried for, and convicted of treason, and hung by the neck until dead (on a gallows on the Capitol lawn):
John Brennan
James Clapper
James Comey
Andrew McCabe
Peter Strzok
Lisa Page
Bruce Ohr
Nellie Ohr
Sally Yates
James A. Baker
Loretta Lynch
Barack H. Obama
Hillary Clinton
Delete Hillary Clinton and add Valerie Jarrett and Eric Holder.
Hillary Is just a sick old drunk who was along for the ride. When she couldn’t even win a rigged election she was thrown away like a broken toy.
This insurrection is Team Obama, not Team Clinton.
