Libtards will go anywhere, say anything, do whatever, with a total lack of self awareness. This position he takes here means that Attorneys General are simply not alowed to quit or die. They must serve because Democrats say so. LMAO

Another group of seditious traitors. It’s sickening to see every single thing Trump tries to do or every person he tries to appoint is immediately attacked by these ‘tards. They are quite actively working AGAINST the people of the United States. I’d call it domestic terrorism—from Brenda Snipes trying to influence elections to the Kavanaugh brouhaha to Ivanka’s emails (but never Hillary’s), and stuff like this.

“The nation’s highest law enforcement officer should be above reproach,"

Right, like....Eric Holder. Now THERE was an apolitical AG.

“The nation’s highest law enforcement officer should be above reproach”

How about the “Special Counsel” whose current title holder has multiple conflicts of interest, recorded judgements against him that resulted in rebukes and reversals, and is credibly accusable at this moment in history of engaging in a campaign of sedition?

"Attorney General Whitaker’s financial disclosures raise potential concerns of both dishonesty and covert partisan conflicts of interest,”

If they were dishonest or covert, he wouldn't have included them in his financial disclosures.

Taking money [~$300,000 personally & $8,800 to a campaign committee] and doing nothing doesn’t seem to me to be a violation of the Hatch Act.

Since DJTrump was announced as the winner of the 2016 Presidential Election, they go after this president every second of every minute of every day.

They’ll make noise and Trump will win. Either Whitaker or a permanent AG they’ll hate even more.

This is rich considering no such complaint was filed against Mueller, Comy, Rosenstein etc etc by this group. Description of the group should be “partisan group” not watchdog group.

Democrats know all about the Hatch Act:

Widespread allegations that local Democratic Party politicians used employees of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) during the congressional elections of 1938 provided the immediate impetus for the passage of the Hatch Act. Criticism centered on swing states such as Kentucky, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. In Pennsylvania, Republicans and dissident Democrats publicized evidence that Democratic politicians were consulted on the appointment of WPA administrators and case workers and that they used WPA jobs to gain unfair political advantage. In 1938, a series of newspaper articles exposed WPA patronage, and political contributions in return for employment, prompting an investigation by the Senate Campaign Expenditures Committee, headed by Sen. Morris Sheppard, a Texas Democrat.

Despite that investigation's inconclusive findings, many in both parties determined to take action against the growing power of the WPA and its chief administrator, Harry Hopkins, an intimate of President Roosevelt. The Act was sponsored by Senator Carl Hatch, a Democrat from New Mexico. At the time, Roosevelt was struggling to purge the Democratic party of its more conservative members, who were increasingly aligned with the administration's Republican opponents. The president considered vetoing the legislation or allowing it to become law without his signature, but instead signed it on the last day he could do so. His signing message welcomed the legislation as if he had called for it, and emphasized the protection his administration would provide for political expression on the part of public employees.

Whitaker is driving the libs nuts. Good! Gives them something to do.

I’m sure President Trump had Whitaker vetted six ways from Sunday before offering him the Acting AG job.
