When I first looked at this I thought it was Council on Foreign Relations, but no, it means Code of Federal Regulations.

Make the opposition play by their own rules.
David Weiss CANNOT be appointed to the position so long as he cannot represent both sides of the investigation, but must be completely OUTSIDE the purview of the Department of Justice, or Just-Us, ort Injustice, or whatever
As a disinterested party, I would suggest Jonathan Turley. Even though he is a known liberal, he respects the Constitution and the rule of law in a way few other liberals or “progressives” now do.
Is violating a CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) the same as violating federal law?
Yes, violating the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) is generally considered a violation of the law in the United States. The CFR is a compilation of the general and permanent rules and regulations established by various federal agencies to implement and enforce the laws passed by Congress. These regulations have the force of law and are legally binding.
And Garland and Biden both think there is not a single thing that can interfere with it.
Now is the time for in the street protests against Weiss and Garland....go after them and their friends at restaurants, protest at their homes,bang drums all night long ,sh*t on their lawns etc.
People who stole the presidency, who appointed and control the DOJ might all be violating “regulations”? Dayam if this kind of thing keeps up it could eventually become SERIOUS!
...explicitly violates the Justice Department’s regulations requiring such appointments come from outside the agency.

This is on purpose. This gives Hunter a way to get any findings tossed on technicalities.
The Democrats are experts at playing this game.
When did the democrats ever follow the law
you might as well ask the mafia to play by the rules

Or pelosi’s dad.
Apparently he schooled her well .
Mobocracy is her middle name imho.
The whole Uniparty should just read up and start a 3rd party called the
Mobovcatic Party
Garland didn’t appoint someone independent from outside the government because he didn’t want to risk having the Supreme Court rule the appointment illegal on the grounds that the outside attorney was not confirmed by the US Senate.
A special counsel can exercise the same powers as a US Attorney.
But all US Attorneys must be confirmed by the US Senate.
Courts have winked at this in the past, but it is possible the Supreme Court might look at the substance of the appointment and rule that if an outside person is clothed with the powers of a US Attorney, then that person must be confirmed by the US Senate.
By appointing someone who is a sitting US Attorney and has already been confirmed by the US Senate, the choice of the special counsel doesn’t have to be agreed upon with Senate Republicans, who might demand someone who will actually do a real investigation and prosecution.
Barr did the same thing with Durham. Technically, they are not appointed under the independent counsel regulations, but rather are simply an existing US Attorney delegated a special task by the Attorney General, but are instructed to follow the independent counsel regulations as if they were an independent counsel.
The whole Uniparty should just fess up and start a 3rd party called the
Mobocatic Party
( boy, autocorrect kicks my arse )
Ok, it might be a scam, but the loser offspring of ‘white liberal elites’ have to earn ways to live in mansions on IQ’s of 105 and without any skills beyond sucking up to their indulgent if somewhat delusional ‘parents’... So if Hunter gets taken down what does that mean for the rest of the private school stupid ones? So Hunter must be saved... just ask CNN’s Smerconish.
No.
This is not a regulation as the article says but a law passed by Congress.
The law says the special counsel must come from outside the government (which in the Hunter case the counsel comes from the government).
The same law says you cannot sue over the special counsel.
So there is nothing that can be done about it.
The only thing I can see is to challenge the law itself in the Supreme Court.
Yes it’s twisted. The government is bound by law but can’t be held accountable for breaking it.
And so?
The whole purpose of having both a tweedle dee and and tweedle dum is so that dee can invesitgate dum with no conflict of interest ... except they are both tweedle.
This appointment violates that basic tenet of the swamp.
Exactly, as if these evil pricks spend one spend one second thinking about whether this breaks any rules. The only consideration is “will this get Biden out of the soup”. Not that it’s an actual problem when the entire media establishment has gone into full protect mode.
did he resign to make this happen?
since 2014-2015 has rolled off the statute of limitations, a house select committee can investigate Hunter for crimes committed in that period and should do that soon in order to build a fire underneath weiss in the court of public opinion.
(will the house do so?)
Oh, we’re being “warned”?
Really on top of it, there, Paul Revere.
The Constitution, the law or even its own internal regulations do not matter to this corrupt DOJ under Garland.
