It almost certainly is but the difficulty lies in proving the intent. The president is certainly able to fire the Attorney General. It's just that everything else makes is so obviously an attempt to hinder/undermine the Russia investigation that you have to believe (pray?) someone will step up to stop Whitaker from taking full control. But of course that won't stop Trump. He'll just make another move and try to do it in a less obvious way. If the GOP had any guts they'd stop it from going further. But it will likely take a lawsuit or something blatant like an indictment of his son to stop him before the Dems take over the House in January.
Trump/Russia/SDNY investigation
- Thread starter Raoul
- Start date
It's not clear cut though and that's why Trump did it.
A president has total control over who serves on his cabinet.
The deplorables will think he’s smart to get away with not paying taxes.
He already boasted about paying no taxes during the Clinton debates.
Ridicule is one of their favourite tools for distraction.
Good to see that Schiff has the bit between his teeth.
His resignation letter stated that it was at the request of the President.
Yeah because our government is not in the middle of a constitutional crisis over Brexit.
It's a witch hunt...but with real witches.
Logical fallacy isn't it?
Ah the famous perjury trap, also known as getting caught.
I wouldn't have lied under oath if I'd known that you knew the truth.
Big developments expected in the next few hours.
About flippin time!
Is it Juniors time?
Bishmueller!
Such a tease.

Media has begun to set up cameras and equipment outside of the federal courthouse in Washington, D.C. They have been told a grand jury will convene shortly associated with the Mueller investigation. (Note: Michael Cohen is also in town with his legal team)

This refers to an article from 2 weeks ago, interesting it's being tweeted out now.
It's Mueller time. 
His twitter feed is quite interesting.
Yes boy! It's gonna be one hell of a money shot.
No need! I’m going to be using the viscous emulsion of Bill Mitchell’s rage spittum and Jacob Wohl’s tears.
Some interesting points in the replies there. Notable right wing commentators like KimDotCom all went silent on Nov 8th, as did Jill Stein.
Interesting thoughts re: Corsi, Italy and a meeting he attended there, Cohen was also in Italy and showed up in Washington for interviews with Mueller as Corsi was being interviewed and announced he’s expecting an indictment to come soon.
Speculated that Cohen is blowing the Russia collusion wide open and being an invaluable source of truth to beat the likes of Corsi and Stone with.
