Constitutionally, there is one person in the United States ultimately responsible for the enforcement of federal law. It is not Jeff Sessions. It is not Rod Rosenstein. It is not Christopher Wray. It is Donald John Trump
Trump: Why isn’t the DOJ investigating the ‘media leak strategy’ Strzok and Page talked about in their texts?
He’s their boss. Why doesn’t he tell them to?
I’m sympathetic as ever with his frustration over the DOJ’s lack of interest in pursuing and prosecuting illegal leaks, especially in a case like this when the evidence that it was going on is plain as day and in the words of those who were clearly and obviously doing it. If you don’t pursue a case against people like that, why don’t you just go ahead and announce that you’ve taken the liberty of ignoring all laws you don’t feel like enforcing?
