Jeff Sessions Resignation, Matthew Whitaker, Protect Mueller Protests
Jeff Sessions resigned as Attorney General at the request of President Trump, with Matthew Whitaker appointed as his acting replacement. Whitaker has previously been critical of the Mueller investigation, leading to concerns among Democrats about the probe's future. In response, activist groups organized "Protect Mueller" protests in over 900 cities, framing the leadership change as a "break glass in case of emergency" moment for the rule of law.
