Scott Schools has been identified as the man at the Department of Justice responsible for leading most of the moves against President Donald Trump coming from inside DOJ. Now Scott Schools is resigning from office, having made a powerful enemy in the President of the United States. Schools was a hire of Sally Yates, the former deputy attorney general who is still involved in Barack Obama’s scheme to undermine the Trump administration from within.
Schools has played a critical, if behind-the-scenes, role in some of the most important and sensitive issues in the building. This year, Schools recommended then-Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe be fired for a “lack of candor” in an internal investigation.
Earlier, he advised former acting Attorney General Sally Yates about the boundaries of her congressional testimony in early 2016. And more recently, Schools has been photographed near the offices of Russia special counsel Robert Mueller, as one of a few top DOJ aides to get regular briefings on the status of that investigation.”
As the most trusted DOJ ethics official, told Rod Rosenstein NOT to recuse himself in any cases involving alleged Russian collusion, and that Schools is also responsible for advising Jeff Sessions to recuse himself from the case. Schools then advised Rosenstein to appoint Robert Mueller as special counsel.
That puts Sally Yates, the DOJ official who lost her job for refusing to obey President Trump’s travel ban, firmly at the center of the entire Robert Mueller affair.
