BREAKING: WHITTAKER GETS GREEN LIGHT ON MUELLER PROBE!

DEMS WORST NIGHTMARE JUST BECAME REALITY!!!

Matthew Whitaker was appointed acting Attorney General in November after Jeff Sessions was

fired in disgrace.

Whitaker immediately took over the Mueller investigation, bumping DAG Rod Rosenstein

from the role and the Democrats went crazy calling for him to recuse himself.

Three Senate Judiciary Democrats then sued to block Matthew Whitaker from serving as

Attorney General.

Senators Blumenthal, Whitehouse and Hirono sued to block Whitaker from "serving in

any office within the federal government" because the Senate hasn't consented.

On Wednesday Acting Attorney General Whitaker was cleared by ethics officials to take over

the Mueller probe — he does NOT need to recuse himself.

FOX News reported:

Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker will not recuse himself from overseeing the Russia

probe, despite mounting pressure from Democrats who cite his "hostility" toward Special

Counsel Robert Mueller and his investigation.

A source familiar with the matter told Fox News on Thursday that Whitaker met with Justice

Department ethics officials this week, who told him he was not precluded from overseeing

Mueller's investigation into Russian meddling and potential collusion with Trump campaign

associates during the 2016 presidential election.

Whitaker, who served as chief of staff to former Attorney General Jeff Sessions until

Sessions was fired, has faced extreme pressure from Democrats to recuse himself to ensure

that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein continues in that role.

Sessions recused himself from overseeing the probe due to his work on the Trump campaign

in 2016, turning control to Rosenstein, who appointed Mueller on May 17, 2017.

The DOJ also plans to send a letter to lawmakers on the Hill later today explaining Whitaker's

stance on not recusing

from

the Mueller

Russia investigation.

TRUMP JUST EXPOSED ONE THING MUELLER WANT TO HIDE MOST

President Trump's lawyers are preparing written responses to questions from Special

Counsel Robert Mueller regarding possible collusion with Russia.

The move, first reported by CNN, marks a major advance in negotiations between Trump's

attorneys and Mueller's team and could signal that the investigation is entering its final

phases.

The two sides have battled for months over whether Trump would appear for an interview

with Mueller's prosecutors or submit answers in writing.

Trump's legal team, led by Jay Sekulow and Rudy Giuliani, have also pushed for a narrow

set of questions to be posed to Trump.

Mueller, who was appointed special counsel on May 17, 2017, is investigating whether

the Trump campaign conspired with Russians to influence the 2016 election as well whether

Trump obstructed justice by firing James Comey as FBI director.

Comey's firing, on May 9, 2017, paved the way for Mueller's appointment.

Trump's lawyers have reportedly pushed to avoid dealing with questions about obstruction

of justice.

Giuliani, the public face of Trump's legal team, has argued that Trump was allowed to

fire Comey for any reason he saw fit.

In April, The New York Times published a list of nearly 50 questions that Mueller presented

the Trump team.

The questions covered a wide array of topics, including activities on the campaign as well

as the firing of Michael Flynn

as

national

security adviser.
