And now the usual mindless minions will support their gawd, and declare his word is all that is needed to create a new form of law.

Another swamp creature to be sure.

so he cant serve as ag without consen but he can serve as acting ag as it said from the last lawyer.
As I understand it he is only acting ag anyway.
Trump isn't concerned about legality or the constitution. He might want to brush up on #25.

There is a legal "Line of Succession" that is actually written into law. Rosenstein was the legal successor.
28 U.S. Code § 508 - Vacancies
(a) In case of a vacancy in the office of Attorney General, or of his absence or disability, the Deputy Attorney General may exercise all the duties of that office, and for the purpose of section 3345 of title 5 the Deputy Attorney General is the first assistant to the Attorney General.
(b) When by reason of absence, disability, or vacancy in office, neither the Attorney General nor the Deputy Attorney General is available to exercise the duties of the office of Attorney General, the Associate Attorney General shall act as Attorney General. The Attorney General may designate the Solicitor General and the Assistant Attorneys General, in further order of succession, to act as Attorney General.

-.- your article literally says that he can be the acting AG with the vacancies reform act just not the permanent AG till confirmed. I mean its literally in the first couple of paragraphs.
The Federal Vacancies Reform Act of 1998 allows the president to choose any senior DOJ official to serve as an acting attorney general as long as that person has already served in a high-level position for 90 days. Whitaker qualifies for the temporary position under this Act.
There have been arguments on both sides over whether the act supplants the AG succession law, John Bies, former deputy assistant attorney general in the office of legal counsel, told Axios.
"I think it’s pretty clear under the terms of the statute itself that [Trump] has authority ... to appoint someone who is a senior DOJ official," he said.
"The Vacancy Act has precedence [over the Succession Act] when the president picks someone under that procedure," another DOJ lawyer texted us.
lol anyway im sure the left will file a case in the 9th as they always do lol.

Utter nonsense. It's perfectly legal, much to your chagrin.

Yup.
The irony is that there’s a much better argument that the appointment of Rosenstein was illegal since his blatantly obvious conflicts with respect to any investigation involving obstruction of justice.
Rosenstein is a *fricking witness* if Trump is going to be charged with obstruction: Rosenstein wrote *the fricking* letter to Trump recommending that Comey be fired. And a principle witness gets to oversee the investigation? Really?? How do you even make this stuff up?
And now Mullet’s lefty protectors want to get rid of Whitaker based on a questionable interpretation of statutes.
I’ll call bullshit on that all day. The left doesn’t care about statutes or DOJ regulations any more than they care about Russians or corrupt election interference.
And that becomes clearer every day.
