Professor Jonathan Turley, a top national legal expert on government investigations, commented on Thursday about Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ decision to bring in U.S. Attorney John Huber. Turley called it “brilliant”to combine all the powers of the U.S. Department of Justice’s inspector general with a prosecutor who can bring charges, seek indictments, and get results for President Trump far more quickly than a second special counsel. That point is critical because as Sessions’ March 29 letter explains, the inspector general’s jurisdiction to conduct civil and criminal investigations includes “actions taken by former employees after they have left government service.” Then Huber can act on any of those matters.

As a U.S. attorney, Huber has full authority to empanel a grand jury and to file criminal charges. A grand jury can be empaneled anywhere, which means that it could be a group of citizens from deep-red Utah – in the heart of Trump country – instead of the D.C. Swamp that decides whether to hand down indictments for felony prosecution.

“The Inspector General’s jurisdiction extends not only to allegations of legal violations, but also to allegations that Department employees violated established practices as well,” Sessions added in his letter, which means that the IG’s report can hold people accountable even for actions that do not violate a specific statute.

“I think [Sessions] did the right thing here,” said Turley. “I think the president should listen to General Sessions on this one.”

Sessions “can always appoint a special counsel,” Turley explained, but that should not even be necessary because Huber “has the ability to prosecute cases.”

Sessions gave these guys special authority. All of the sealed indictments all over the US are likely in connection with their investigation.

I wonder how well Wray's "bias training" at the FBI is going


I was watching the press conference when he announced this program. It was the most insipid and uninspiring talk I have ever heard.

So true Island, training to teach FBI agents not to take bribes and leak, if they need training for that, goodness help us when it comes to actually doing law work.

And that annoying smirk of Wray the whole time. I still cant believe he was nominated, when he was at his previous job (a law firm he and sally yates had worked at, and she is back there) he sent a rec letter to congress for her to be AGA, and he is put in the FBI slot.

I blame the never Trumper GOP senators for that one, he knew he could not get an honest FBI director at the time, same reason he could not get Ratcliffe head of DNI, burr that prick.
