William Banks, a Syracuse College of Law professor and the founding director of INSCT, discussed this notion with Bloomberg Radio’s “Politics, Policy, Power and Law” program.

“Here, because Jeff Sessions has refused from the questions surrounding this investigation, then it’s up to the Deputy Attorney General,” Banks said. “President doesn’t like the way the Deputy Attorney General, he could do his job, he could dismiss him.
