Unlike Trump's hack who is there for corrupt purposes. Now, now, your position (as given to you in the DNC talking points memo) is that Whitaker was not approved by the Senate to be the Attorney General. Changing your tune now is pretty laughable. Of course, let's just ignore the statute passed by Congress, signed by President Clinton, that authorized the appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that's a "no" he was never approved by the Senate whereas Yates was.

Show me where she was ever confirmed to be the Acting Attorney General. Go ahead, I'll wait. There's these things, called statutes. They're actually laws passed by Congress and signed by the president. That's kinda how things work. Even a dipschiff like you can maybe figure it out, assuming you're told that it's ok to learn something new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was confirmed as Deputy AG and was made acting AG in the normal process of following the line of secession. Your cult leader picked this guy to be the unconfirmed chief of staff of Sessions with the intent to bypass the usual line of secession to purposely violate checks and balances so he can corruptly interfere with the very thing Trump was screaming and ranting about.

What happens is that the President appoints an acting director, according to the VRA. 3) Senate Confirmations ARE NOT TRANSFERABLE. Being confirmed as Deputy AG does not confirm one as the AG.

She was never confirmed to be the ACTING Attorney General - the very same complaint that you dumbshits make about Whittaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that Trump seems to have followed https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/5/3345 and eventually 3356 to the letter. However it is one thing to argue with someone who calls himself Tiberius, but pity Kelly Ann for having to live with someone who writes BS like https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/08/opinion/trump-attorney-general-sessions-unconstitutional.html. It must be discouraging. Or perhaps U.S. Code § 3345 - Acting officer law is unconstitutional and will require some "judicial review".

A Trump political hack in charge of enforcing laws, ya, what could go wrong? You are justifying this illegal appointment to head our justice department on the grounds of a conspiracy theory. Ok! 17 hours ago, Koko78 said: Yes, she was confirmed to be the Deputy Attorney General. She was never confirmed to be the ACTING Attorney General - the very same complaint that you dumbshits make about Whittaker. Yes, she was confirmed by Senate and Whittaker was not. Thank you! End of story! How in the world you get that being the same complaint is beyond stupid. Your buddies want you to stop replying because you look really stupid trying to argue this. 17 hours ago, DC Tom said: 1) "Succession," not "seccession." 2) There IS no "line of succession" for Presidential appointments.

There is a line of succession, so you don't know what you are talking about. Confirmations do not need to be transferable, but they show that Congress has at least vetted this person so we know--unlike with political hack Whittker--that they are simply not there to obstruct justice. This is corruption taking place in the open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone is confirmed as Deputy AG in the normal process that is much closer to Constitutional norms than just picking some Trump cultist hack to head the department. You are just being stupid.
