Before he took office, Donald Trump knew what had to be done and how it had to be done, and put his team in place:
- President-elect Trump nominated Jeff Sessions -- a 12-year United States Attorney and the Attorney General of Alabama before he became a senator -- knows from experience how to investigate and prosecute conspiracies, and to keep his mouth shut while doing it.
- President Trump then nominated Rod Rosenstein (the 12-year United States Attorney for Maryland) to replace the traitorous Obama holdover, Sally Yates.
- President Trump retained DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz, who directs hundreds of investigators (lawyers) but was stonewalled by AGs Holder and Lynch until Rep. Chaffetz pushed through the Inspector General Empowerment Act of 2016 (HR 6450) to codify Horowitz's authority to compel production of documents.
- President Trump nominated Jessie Liu as United States Attorney for the District of Columbia. USA Liu is has a passion to MAGA by prosecuting pedophiles, and was publicly taunting the Podesta brothers until Twitter suspended her personal account last Thursday. Liu is right over the target and they got the message.
President Trump is no fool -- and other than a few pearl-clutching FReepers, Trump's enemies are the only ones who look scared. They are terrified of what is being done behind the scenes. Trust President Trump.
That news about Jessie Liu should be noised about a little bigger than it has been...she was actually taunting the Podesta’s? Wow...I hope Trump has assigned extra protection. Assigning a lady lawyer to rout out pedophiles,,,talk about the instincts of a mother grizzly towards her cubs.....! We need to watch this person and give her more public support.(and maybe a higher office if she does a spectacular job!)
I found this on google’s cache...it maybe the twitter that caused her account to be closed from March 6:”Many people are in trouble and they know they are. Most know what’s coming and they’re being monitored. Tony Podesta was turned right around when he thought his passage out of the U.S. was secured.”
Qanon mentioned a couple of people being stopped at an airport, a while back... So I wonder......
How do you know that Trump appointed all these people? He appointed the AG, but there is a qualifying ladder in place there, at Justice, which is limited to a pool of two or three top qualifiers, from which a new president can choose. Trump was initially concerned about that pool during the transition.
I don’t recall how that concern was ever addressed, or that he was able to do a thing about it.
Rosenstein remarked a couple of days ago that should Mueller investigate the Comey firing that he would recuse himself and said that so and so would then serve as acting DAG. Because they are next in line.
My point is that Trump doesn’t know all these people that step up to these positions. That selection job you speak of belongs to the AG. Thanks for the information on Horowitz.
