This happened the day after the mid-term Elections for one reasonthe President didn't want the American people to hold him accountable for making the Attorney General resign. No one is above the law. Given Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker's prior statements regarding the Special Counsel's investigation, he should recuse himself in order to preserve the independence of the investigation. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
