Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I offered someone a job on Friday, she accepted on Monday and just backed out. And I already turned against the other option. Ugggghhhhh.
Oh, what a pain! When you say "turned against", you mean you decided you don't like the second choice candidate?
Rosenstein signing the Cohen warrant may well indicate how he'll behave if Trump tells him to fire Mueller. Trump simply has never met a problem that he couldn't sue or pay off his way out of, so no wonder he's sticking to the idea that if he just fires enough people, the problem will be put off until people forget about it.
Elsewhere a friend pointed out that it's a state investigation into Cohen now, so Trump can't even pardon him if it came to that. Heh heh.
MsBelle, I'd be up for a friendhouse arrangement. I'd rather Tucson, if we are considering places.
Trump can't directly fire Mueller, he has to get the Attorney General to do it.
Apparently the White House is asserting they do have the authority to fire him.
That sounds like something the White House would assert.
Good ole Sarah Sanders.

Fair point.I just don't want their tugboat pushing around my reality.

is this true? I know it's been farmed out to the New York office, but I'd heard it was still the U.S. Attorney's office.
In other U.S. news, a couple of friends I went to uni with back in Canberra are now law professors at Chicago universities. Last week they had an article published in the Washington Post! [link] It's about the increasing talkativeness of Supreme Court justices (except Clarence Thomas), and causes thereof.
One of them, Tonja Jacobi, has previously been published therein: [link] This one was about the fact that women on the Supreme Court get interrupted far more often than men.
