WOW.Hillary real criminal enterprise. and even a coup-d-etat,

Besides he a fraudster ? he should have been stripped of his law license. He never even payed his fine he threatened a consumer he help rip off ? And like Trump his financial disclosure was not disclosed. Crook Crook and Crook

*4th. See

Sure waste even more money. Sad

There is no way that the Courts can dictate who can be appointed to an executive position. Congress can “advise and consent”. Whitaker is good for 210 days wo Senate confirmation. The unhinged loons are just doing their thing.

Stupids get in line to make themselves a laughing stock of the Nation!

This is from 3 Democratic Senators who know Donald Trump and claim the DOJ's appointment of Matthew Whitaker under the Vacancies Act is unconstitutional are clearly obstructing justice. Matthew Whitaker's appointment IS constitutional and this lawsuit is baseless.
