I was not aware of this rather significant with this history of Mueller playing fast and loose with facts, policies, and lives.

Dersh is really putting the hammer down. Lots of external pressure being exerted on this never ending witch hunt.

Gulliani will make a huge difference, imho.

Dunno if Dersh will notice but 99% of the ‘traditional civil libertarians’ have long been exclusively on the right.

Leftists instinctively and frequently shift the goalposts to suit their short and long term aims.

Did Sessions or Rosenstein follow the law regarding Mueller’s potential conflicts?

28 CFR 603:

(b) The Attorney General shall consult with the Assistant Attorney General for Administration to ensure an appropriate method of appointment, and to ensure that a Special Counsel undergoes an appropriate background investigation and a detailed review of ethics and conflicts of interest issues. A Special Counsel shall be appointed as a “confidential employee” as defined in 5 U.S.C. 7511(b)(2)(C).

I’m calling DeSantis’s office today to ask that they look into this.

And he might want to take a gander at the ACLU and it’s willingness to throw the law out the door in it’s desire to get Trump too.

"Did Sessions or Rosenstein follow the law regarding Mueller’s potential conflicts?"

The answer seems pretty simple to those of us without 'advanced degrees' -- no.

But we don't count. We're not capable of understanding the nuances and legal details...

All we need to understand is that those in-power will remain in-power despite of the efforts of a few good men and women.

Sad to think that our country has become this corrupt and lawless.

Dershowitz has earned my respect. We need more with principles like he has. I can see why even many conservatives who have had him as a professor still love him and respect him.

Even though I’d have profoundly disagreed with his politics, I’d have really enjoyed having him as a professor.

Mueller was lead investigator, or prosecutor, or FBI director at various times in his career during a number of major blunders and false prosecutions. He is very “deep state” in how the institutions he has been a part of and their reputations have stood as priority above true justice.

It is ironic to see many right-wingers being the ones to criticize overreach by law enforcement, while many left-wingers now defend such overreaching.

I'll go ahead and attack the straw-man. When do so-called "right wingers" embrace overreach by law enforcement, Professor? Please cite examples.

Sadly, Alan Dershowitz is 79 years old. We won’t have his wisdom on the other side for very long. The next generation of leftists loves the totalitarian state because they believe it is theirs. It’s sad what would happen if they got their wish, one of the few things that would be even sadder than what will happen if they make a final grab for that wish and the decent half of America steps up to stop them.

Can Mueller prove he didn't write that letter?

I agree. And unlike what seem to be serious prior transgressions by Mueller, we'll be reading about Gulliani's transgressions seven days a week
