Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker has told associates that he won't reduce special counsel Robert Mueller's budget, as he previously suggested, a source told Bloomberg.
Whitaker, who took over the role last week when former Attorney General Jeff Sessions was ousted, has reportedly said he will allow Mueller's investigation into Russian interference to move forward. His appointment raised alarms among Democrats and a few Republicans who expressed concern about his past statements about the investigation.
=================================================
I can't read this guy's mind so we will have to watch as things develop until the Blue Wave is in place in January.

Well he's fired.
lol
Hey you said what I said!
Well that's what I get for not scrolling down.
q.f.t.no, this is them holding back. Getting sessions out and installing a stooge was trump testing the waters, seeing how far it could fly, and i think this is only them holding back, somehow they're still working to undermine mueller, and you can bank on that.
What joke? :2razz:Well, great minds think alike so we both thought of the same joke
What joke? :2razz:
I was joking! (too) :mrgreen:That Whittaker is going to be fired for publicly stating that he would not cut Mueller’s funding
This is more left wing propaganda. Using an unnamed source to suggest Whitaker isn't going to do something that he might decide is the right thing to do after he reviews what is going on. It's silly to think anyone would commit to something like that one way or the other. If he did he is a moron.So, once again, the Left's hysteria was for naught. Knock me over with a feather. I'm sure that means that Dems won't try to destroy him come January.:roll:
Whittaker publically stated that? Link to the quote? Sounds more like them trying to box him in to a commitment that he should not makeThat Whittaker is going to be fired for publicly stating that he would not cut Mueller’s funding
Top Democrats pushed the Justice Department’s ethics chief Monday to disclose his advice to acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker about whether he needed to recuse himself from overseeing the ongoing Russia investigation.
The Democrats said they believe Mr. Whitaker must not be in charge of overseeing special counsel Robert Mueller’s work, and they are hoping Lee J. Lofthus, the department’s designated ethics officer, has come to the same conclusion.
Sen. Charles E. Schumer and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, Democrats’ leaders in Congress, led the letter, joined by the ranking Democrats on the Judiciary and intelligence committees in each chamber, as well as the House oversight panel.
They pointed to comments Mr. Whitaker made last year suggesting an attorney general might starve the special counsel of funding, thereby limiting its ability to follow through on its investigation.
“For these reasons, we request that you immediately notify us in writing regarding whether you, or any other ethics officials at the Justice Department, have advised Mr. Whitaker to recuse from supervision of the special counsel investigation, and the basis for that recommendation,” the Democrats wrote. “We also request that you provide us all ethics guidance the department has provided to Mr. Whitaker to date.”
