monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

Incredibly, your claims are even weaker than Giujohn's. What law do you, or does he allege, the president would be assuring the enforcement of in selectively attempting to direct investigations by the FBI? What executive authority of which the president has 100%, do you allege entitles the president to selectively direct FBI investigations? The head of the FBI is the Director. If he does not direct investigations, but rather, the president does so, what's his purpose? Is the Director just a political crony who gets a cool office and a chauffeured car? I'm sure President Plump would like to think so.

Your conceit is unassailable--but not either your knowledge of the constitution nor of legal statute. If you are someone's employer, and you order them to do an illegal act, you are just as culpable as that poor fool if he or she carries out your wishes. I suspect that your adulation of President Plump blinds you to logic as well as knowledge of the constitution and of law.

The president proposes, but Congress disposes. If at any time, Congress were not happy with the FBI, the constitution gives them to power not only to create executive branch agencies, but to abolish them, too.

Furthermore, as defined by the Supremes in Morrison versus Olson, 1988, the Director of the FBI is an inferior executive branch officer, and can only be appointed or dismissed with congressional approval.

The only thing unassailable about your posts is your display of invincible ignorance.

Is Fired by Trump supposed to be a bad recommendation, or a badge of honor?

I don't know.

I know a lot of people who went to Law School but never practiced law. It's great to have a JD on your resume. None of them who weren't in a low level position ever tried to cop a lawyerly attitude though.

Education is great, but application is better.

If Debra Law doesn't want to share with us her bonafides that's fine, but because she was a lawyer at one time doesn't mean she's a legal scholar.

I'm not a lawyer although I've studied the law and spent 40 years engaged in managing civil litigation. I never let lawyers intimidate me but I always recognized the ones who knew what they were talking about and the ones who were talking out of their asses.

With google, anyone can cite statues. Debra's failing is that she doesn't cite case law or construct arguments around it.

House and Senate lawmakers leading the Russia investigation have asked the White House to produce tapes President Trump hinted might exist of a conversation between him and ousted FBI Director James Comey. They also made a formal request to the Comey camp for copies of the memos he testified he made to document the meetings....

At a press conference in the Rose Garden on Friday, the president toyed with reporters vowing to say “in the very near future” if the tapes exist.

Immigration arrests soar under Trump

Federal immigration agents are arresting more than 400 immigrants a day, a sharp leap from last year that reflects one of President Trump’s most far-reaching campaign promises.

In Trump’s first 100 days in office, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested 41,318 immigrants, up 37.6 percent over the same period last year, the agency said Wednesday. Almost 3 out of 4 of those arrested have criminal records, including gang members and fugitives wanted for murder.

The DEA Just Raided A United States Senator

The DEA just raided the vacation ranch of Democrat Senator Hal Lindsay (D-NJ), seizing more than 400 marijuana plants, 2 greenhouses full of opium-producing poppies and a small lab that was pumping out massive amounts of refined, finished product. The ranch, just a few hundred miles north of anything in Wyoming, was also seized along with a fleet of automobiles, recreational vehicles and other property now considered the spoils of the drug trade.

The bust itself yielded more than $6 million in finished drugs alone, never mind the plants and raw product waiting for packaging. All in all, Senator Lindsay is looking at 70 years behind bars on the opium alone. He was taken into custody at his office in Washington DC and has since been booked and released on $10 million bail.
