10 Tweets From Our New Acting Attorney General
On Wednesday, Donald Trump announced via tweet that beleaguered Attorney General and extremely lost Keebler Elf Jeff Sessions had resigned (though moments later we learned this was at Trump's request). Sessions's replacement would not be Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, as we might have assumed, but Sessions's chief of staff, an attorney and CNN legal commentator named Matthew G. Whitaker.
Whitaker might have known this was coming since usually one knows about these things, not to mention that he penned an op-ed for CNN published in August 2017 in which he called Robert Mueller's investigation a "mere witch hunt," which felt like him shrieking into the Oval Office that he was ready for a promotion.
Regardless, he failed to delete a majority of his past tweets. Here are some of them.
