    FBI director must be a career professional. An independent prosecutor is needed for Trump-Russia now

        The AG (in this case, deputy AG) can & with a lot of effort, congress could.http://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-special-prosecutor-trump-russia-jeff-sessions-congress-2017-2 …

        Surely no one is naive enough to believe that Trump will put in an FBI director who will pursue Trump's corrupt connections to Russia.

        Yes it is. If theTrump is removed, then we might be put under martial law for a time. So, I have been keeping two weeks of food just in case

        It is time for a Special Prosecutor. Tell Your Senators & Representatives; Congress can compel Trump to appoint a Special Prosecutor.
