please, assorted acolytes: explain to me again how Bill Clinton rose to
impeachable status and this **** doesn't?
At least, with a Congress from the opposition party, we will see some
oversight(in overdrive, I would imagine).
And, we will see people testifying in public, under oath.
This one could prove very interesting........

So all those US Attorneys serve at the pleasure of the president. They
can be hired or fired any time. One at a time or all at once.

You ask about Clinton? He did the same thing within the first year and
a half of his first term.
