Even if this wasn't directly connected to him but rather just involved Sessions or something, ordering his team to fire him alone is major. Then given the fact that they refused and threatened to quit rather than do it?

Just expressing my opinion on the matter.  Nothing to get excited about.

It's also my opinion that the FBI is in grave danger of being exposed as having some biased agents at or near the top of the chain of command.

I really don't get how my opinion can be condemned for feeling that Trump's desire to fire the special counsel as not being a big deal, by the same folks that seem unwilling to acknowledge the very real possibility of the DOJ, along with our Nation's top Law Enforcement Agency the FBI, being jaded and operating in a biased manner.
