The conspiracy withing DOJ to influence the election is so clear at this point, it is unthinkable that the head of the organization continues to allow those involved in the conspiracy to run the investigation. Recused or not, he needs to take control of DOJ.

remember the attempts to get Sean Hannity off fired from Fox? e.g.,

VIDEO: 2 May 2017: Today: Fox News co-president pushed out: Could Sean Hannity be next?
There’s fresh turmoil at Fox News Tuesday morning: Bill Shine, the networks’ co-president, has followed CEO Roger Ailes and star anchor Bill O-Reilly out the door. There is speculation that Sean Hannity could be next. NBC’s Stephanie Gosk reports for TODAY.

that failed, but then Murdoch did the unthinkable - he pulled Fox News off cable in the UK, citing fake viewership numbers, at the very time Hannity/Sara Carter/John Solomon etc were exposing the greatest political scandal in US history?

29 Aug 2017: BBC: Sky stops broadcasting Fox News in UK
Sky is to stop broadcasting Fox News in the UK after low audience figures, the media firm has said...
The decision was not related to Fox’s takeover bid for Sky, a source told the BBC...
“[Fox] has decided to cease providing a feed of Fox News Channel in the UK,” a company spokeswoman said.
“Fox News is focused on the US market and designed for a US audience and, accordingly, it averages only a few thousand viewers across the day in the UK.
“We have concluded that it is not in our commercial interest to continue providing Fox News in the UK,” she added.
Sky stopped broadcasting the US television network in the UK from 4pm on Tuesday...

The source said that Fox News had about 2,000 average daily viewers. The costs of distributing the US network in the UK meant it was not in 21st Century Fox’s commercial interests to continue, the source added.
However, figures from the Broadcaster’s Audience Research Board (Barb) suggest that Fox News’ average UK daily viewing figures were nearly 60,000 per day this year...

6 Nov 2017: BBC: Fox News broke the UK’s broadcasting rules
Two Fox News broadcasts in the UK have been found in breach of Ofcom rules over impartiality.
A January edition of the Hannity programme discussed US President Donald Trump’s ban restricting travel from seven majority-Muslim countries.
Ofcom said the US-made show was largely pro-Trump and did not sufficiently reflect alternative viewpoints.
Tucker Carlson Tonight was also found in breach for a broadcast in May following the Manchester terror attack.

Regarding Hannity, Ofcom said they had taken into account “that Fox News is a US news channel, directed at US audiences, which is available in the UK. The people who watch it in the UK are aware that it is a US channel and their expectations are different.
“It is not a main source of news in the UK. However, we were also mindful that, in our view, this particular programme dealt with major matters relating to current public policy that, as well as being of international significance, were of particular relevance and significance to UK viewers.”

Fox News is a channel originating in the US which stopped broadcasting on Sky in the UK in August and surrendered its licence to Ofcom on 1 November...

no-one can convince me Murdoch didn’t pull Fox News in the UK in order to protect the British Govt, who were deeply involved in the attempt to prevent Donald Trump becoming President.
