Matt Whitaker: We’ve Crossed the Rubicon of the Present President Investigating the Past President, This Is ‘Banana Republic’ Practice

EXCERPT:

CAIN: “And one last question, Matt, you were acting attorney general. You have an expansive view of American history. In your estimation — we heard from Stephen Miller a little bit earlier, that in his estimation he can’t find another example of something like this in American history. Can you?”

WHITAKER: “I can’t. And I think this is — is unfortunately, we’ve crossed the Rubicon to some extent where previous administrations are now investigated and previous presidents are investigated by the next administration. This is something from banana republics, not the United States of America.”
