You could have told me you were mocking the tweeters calling for "marshal law" and I'd have believed you.Kat said:

All true, but those were not SC's as they are defined today. The current special counsel law was enacted after the Lewinsky scandal. And I don't know the law on that. Perhaps you ahve researched but I have not.Halifax2TheMax said:
POTUS can fire the special counsel by ordering his AG to do so but not without there being a shit storm. Nixon ordered his AG to fire Archibald Cox who refused to do so and resigned. Then he ordered his Assistant AG to do so and he too refused and resigned in protest. Then it came to Bork, who did so and why he wasn't appointed to the SCOTUS during Reagan's term, I think. It was the Saturday Night Massacre or as Arlo sings, Mass-a-creeeeee. All the dems have to repeat is, "hoax," "witchhunt," and "fraud."mrussel1 said:
I generally agree, although I don't know the laws around the special counsel. However, I would be surprised if the acting AG would assign the SC, since he is a career official. He'll probably get fired too.Halifax2TheMax said:
If Tricky Team Trump TREASON Tax cheat appoints a special counsel, Sleepy Woke Joe Basement Biden should fire them, along with Bull Durham.

All basically the same since its inception, Special Counsel, Independent Counsel and Special Prosecutor. All basically the same except for the "charge," as directed by the AG and the term of appointment, some are open ended and some have a defined length of term, subject to renewal. I believe what was altered after Kenneth Starr, because it went from a land deal investigation, to a billing records investigation, to Vince Foster's death, to Monica, with no end date, they altered the requirements or included a specificity to the charge. POTUS can't appoint or fire but he can pressure/direct his AG to do so, which CYA Barr did by appointing Bull Durham Special Counsel to investigate Putin on the ritz's election interference, in so doing, leaving the door open to Burisma, fruit from the poisonous tree, "spying," and any crimes uncovered as a result (Ukraine, Burisma/Hunter Biden). Although CYA Barr already knows there's nothing there, it makes for political theater like Benghazi. Plausible deniability to hobble a radical, leftist Sleepy Woke Joe Basement Biden Administration. Its going to be a very long four years with this crop of repubs and its only going to get worse, with 75 million cultists out there.mrussel1 said:

haha, I guess Neal would know. He wrote the rules.Kat said:I believe I heard Neal Katyal say that a president can't appoint a Special Counsel. Forgive me if I'm not remembering correctly.
I like Neal. I've seen him retweet PJ before.
The Office of Special Counsel was an office of the United States Department of Justice established by provisions in the Ethics in Government Act that expired in 1999. The provisions were replaced by Department of Justice regulation 28 CFR Part 600,[1] which created the successor office of special counsel. The current regulations were drafted by former acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal.[2]

Good info. The question is whether the acting AG is willing to do the overtly political will of an outgoing president. I would be surprised if that happened.Kat said:
