Apparently not, as an ACTING officer does not need to be confirmed by the Senate. Never has. It also makes little sense as the position of ACTING [anything] is, almost by definition, temporary. Now, if you're advocating for him to be the permanent successor to Sessions, that's a different subject.

Eh, I wanted gator to actually answer. Killjoy! However to answer your rhetorical question: So the Democrats can keep the farce going in their nonsensical bid to delegitimize the sitting administration. Whitaker is going to very quickly end the 'investigation', either by forcing Muller to submit his final report immediately, outright firing Mueller, or simply cutting off his funding. Whitaker can take the political heat for either of these options, since he's not likely going to be the choice to be Sessions' successor. This terrifies the Democrats, who are planning on spending the next two years making themselves look stupid with frivolity like the Russia collusion nonsense. Just look at the histrionics by Schumer. He wants to "protect" Mueller by inserting legislation into the next 'must pass' spending bill. Apparently he didn't learn from the last shutdown that he isn't going to win that game against Trump.

Do you really think Trump honestly arrived at installing this clown to oversea Justice? After bashing his previous pick because he did the right thing in recusing himself? If you are ok with this you are OK with anything Trump does whether legal or not. Just admit it, you don't care about the rule of law, you only care about your party, your president and that's it.

Tiberius Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Quote Maryland’s top lawyer asked a federal judge Tuesday to block Matthew G. Whitaker from serving as acting U.S. attorney general contending the appointment is illegal. Maryland Attorney General Brian E. Frosh (D) says President Trump’s appointment of Whitaker to the nation’s highest law enforcement post is unconstitutional and that he should be replaced by Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein, who was confirmed by the Senate. “Few positions are more critical than that of U.S. Attorney General, an office that wields enormous enforcement power and authority over the lives of all Americans,” Frosh said in a statement.

You Trump cultists are just unAmerican ____ Chuck Schumer: Quote First, we are demanding that Mr. Whitaker recuse himself from the Russia investigation. On Sunday, I sent a letter along with Leader Pelosi, and top Democrats from both houses and the relevant committees, to the Department of Justice’s Chief Ethics Officer explaining why Mr. Whitaker should be recused and requesting the Chief Ethics Officer notify Congress as to what guidance Whitaker has given. We’ve heard that Mr. Whitaker is meeting with Ethics officials this week, and we expect, we expect, that Congress will be notified about the results of those discussions. Second, if Mr. Whitaker does not recuse himself, we Democrats are going to attempt to add legislation to the must-pass spending bill in the lame duck session that will prevent acting Attorney General Whitaker from interfering with the Mueller investigation in any way. 19 hours ago, DC Tom said: And they're setting a new precedent to bite them in the ass later on.
