    The president is "demand[ing]" that DOJ conduct a particular investigation. (More to come, obviously.)https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/998256454590193665 …

    I hereby demand, and will do so officially tomorrow, that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes - and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!

        In other instances when Trump or the Hill have been pushing for more action, Sessions and Rosenstein have either referred the issue to the Inspector General or assigned a particular US attorney to review the matter.

        So what exactly triggers a constitutional crisis? Because it’s feeling like we’re careening there quickly...

        Why is the POTUS "demanding" an investigation from one of his agencies? What if they refuse or ignore him? The president should "order" the investigation. If the order is not obeyed, he should fire or take whatever action he deems appropriate.
