Was 11th Hour Obama DOJ Succession Swap An Attempted Hit-Job Over Russian Interference Probe?

A curious thing happened Seven days before Obama left the White House. No, not a shady arms deal with Kenya – that happened on Barry Hussein’s last day. I’m talking about a major change in the order of succession at the DOJ in the event Jeff Sessions recused himself from the Russia investigation. Instead of Acting Deputy Attorney General Dana Boente who would have ordinarily take over, Obama, without explanation, changed the law to skip over the Deputy AG position – instead providing his own list of U.S. Attorneys to take the case.

The man Obama placed at the head of the line of succession is D.C.’s U.S. Attorney Channing Phillips, who is quite cozy with President Obama and his attorney general, Eric Holder. He is a former senior adviser to Holder, and he stayed on to work under Obama’s next AG Loretta Lynch before Obama appointed Phillips D.C.’s U.S. attorney in 2015. Weekly Standard

Perhaps Obama assumed Sessions would ultimately have to recuse himself due to his involvement in the campaign? Or maybe the former President knew in advance about this witch hunt over Sessions and the Russian Ambassador. It was also a safe bet for Obama to assume that Trump wouldn’t keep Boente around after the election (which he isn’t, as Trump has appointed US Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein to the position – with his confirmation hearing next week).

Did Obama think the Trump administration wouldn’t notice? Whatever the case, Trump signed an Executive Order restoring the line of succession.

    Sounds like obama was at least attempting regular old 3d chess. I am hearing he has laid a lot of land mines to make this Russian story hard to get rid of

    I got to hear your guys’ thoughts on this. Trump sale of home to Russian oligarch – the same oligarch who’s been turning up in the same US cities as Trump weekend after weekend. Trump bought for $40M and sold four years later for $100M.

    Possible connections to the Bank of Cyprus which I believe recently owned Alfa Bank – this is why Obama’s DOJ allegedly tapped Trump’s servers.

    And now we have Wilbur Ross who’s been vice chair of Bank of Cyprus for a few years.

    Am I just going crazy?? Can someone talk me down off this ledge?

    Dude the first step to recovery is admitting one has a problem. The MSM is nothing more than lying propaganda garbage meant to confuse one into raping themselves. Stop drinking the Drano. Everything will be okay. You can break the addiction.

    Ever heard the one about the mother and her kids taking a hike in the woods. She was worried about getting lost. So they walked down the middle of the railroad tracks across a mile long bridge. Then she was worried about bug bites. Grabs one kid and starts spraying chemicals all over it. While a bear ate the other one.
