    Anyone have a legal theory that can justify this? I don’t. “Bolton was expected to explain that ... some American forces may remain at a key military outpost in al-Tanf, in southern Syria, to counter growing Iranian activity in the region.”

    There they go again.👇 See how Giuliani (like Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Dec. 18, 2018 and Trump earlier) refutes only whether "the President" was involved in conspiracy/collusion. Not refuting if other associates of the 2016 Campaign were. Getting ready to move the goalposts?

    WaPo’s Editorial Board hits the nail on the head. Those who said not to worry about Whitaker because he’d succumb to Justice Department norms or who otherwise treated his appointment as acceptable should be ringing the alarm, as this editorial does.
