It is impossible to read Attorney General Sessions’ firing as anything other than another blatant attempt by @realDonaldTrump to undermine & end Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation.

President Trump just removed Jeff Sessions. He wants an Attorney General to serve his interest, not the public.

Mueller's investigation and the independence of the DOJ must be protected. Whitaker and any nominee must commit to doing both.

We will protect the rule of law.

The deployment of active duty US ARMED FORCES to the US -Mexican Border in an operation named FAITHFUL PATRIOT with lethal force authorized is a scandal. This is a shameful misuse and abuse of the US military in service of Trumps’ desperate political stunts.
