3/5 If AG believes he is being called on by the Pres. to do a thing contrary to his Oath, he must resign. But he shouldn't do so noisily, to feather his own nest, to act heroic, to try to try to score political points, to burnish his reputation, etc. Inheres in what a lawyer is — PolitiTweet.org

4/5 To prosecute someone, or investigate someone, because they're a political enemy, is for an AG (or DOJ subordinate) to violate the equal protection component of the Due Process Clause. That is the way in which politics is to be avoided. Not wrong ideas of DOJ independence. — PolitiTweet.org
