Trump has the authority to fire Yates, but ..as top Senate confirmed official at DOJ, she is the only 1 authorized to sign FISA warrants”
I don’t think this is true. Anyone know?
FISA warrants can only be requested by a Senate-confirmed appointee IIRC, but seems there should be more than one in the Department.
Some guy on Tucker Carlson said there are many senate confirmed appointees that can sign them.
The slow-walkers cannot stop Sessions forever. He will eventually be confirmed, and FISA warrants, should they be needed, can commence again.

White house guy on Tucker this evening said there are many appointees at Justice who can sign. No problem.
So now it’s a FISA thing? Whoaaaa......
