Another complaint — for which there was no contact information provided — alleged that “calendar girls” parties at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago involved genital measurements for children.

“Jeffrey Epstein would bring the children in and trump would auction them off. He measured the children’s vulva and vaginas by entering a finger and rated the children on tightness,” the complaint reads.

    Bullshit, the president appoints the attorney general, and can fire the attorney general. GTFO with your excusing, your passing the buck for these failures. Because the people that put them there are still in charge ready to do it again.

      Yes, the president appoints and fires the attorney general. However, unlike most subordinates, the attorney general is meant to execute the role without direction from the president, according to their own expertise and judgment.

      Since the attorney general may have just cause to pursue legal action against members of the administration and/or allies of the president, and since those people should not be rendered immune to prosecution based on their association with the president, it is necessary for the health of our whole government system that the attorney general act independently. If they fail to perform that job, the president should replace them - and that is a choice that should never be made lightly, as there is a gigantic potential conflict of interest.
