Also, here's when Rosenstein would have to inform Congress: Basically, if he fires Mueller or stops Mueller from doing what he decides.pic.twitter.com/upWlbbQN72

My only question is: To what is this statement referring?
Today's reminder that Team Obama was really good at saying nothing when they wanted to say nothing.https://twitter.com/TVietor08/status/864984870719692800 …
Grassley: "Mueller has a strong reputation for independence, and comes with the right credentials for this job."pic.twitter.com/NeTuMhSe7E
So he has to notify CONGRESS if he wants to rein him in. That's pretty powerful stuff.
Thank you for clarity. This is...a lot
Query: is Sessions able to have any influence whatsoever? Or does this fall under his recusal of investigations related to Russia?
...because Sessions has recused himself?
As I understand it, "Attorney General" here means Acting AG if the AG is (supposed to be) recused. I.e., only Rosenstein can fire Mueller.
I need the legal distinctions of shall and may.
Does he have subpoena power?
Jeff Sessions has recused himself, does this mean he cannot be involved concerning sp prosecutor? Just Rosenstein?
That's not very comforting...
