Three dumb dems, Whitehouse is still looking at the judges yearbook.

2 idiots.

for a acting AG they don't need a vote from the senate. They did not get a vote for Meuller from the senate that makes his special council not legal. Democrats who don't know the doj works for the president they are not independent

He should not be in that position because he is a thief,he stole from disabled veterans.get rid of him!

Career FBI agents were fired because of their opinions, but this guy gets appointed?

No it only means that he is good for the job, and Dems do not like it

This law suit screams FEAR. Criminal DEMS at the FBI,DOJ & Other agencies know that Whitaker now has oversight of not only Mueller's endless search for a crime he can tie to Trump but he can initiate new investigations into FISA abuses, Hillary's myriad violations of laws & more.

There are Republicans in the senate who are lawyers maybe we need to find out what set of laws they are following American rule of law or Russian KGB law.

Thank you SenBlumenthal maziehirono SenWhitehouse

Look America, two liberals, remember how they treated Kavanough. Ruthless, disrespectful and full trickery & lies! Welcome to Democrats rule.

....waiting for level up from Yellow to Red in Tweet-Storm

Oh! Blumenthal you say? Real star that one -_-

The fake Vietnam vet is at it again.

They must really be getting afraid of what’s coming DOJ already said it was constitutional. Just another demo stall.

'Purported' befits Whitaker

I guess they can't put the real truth on the lawsuit.

😡😡😡
