Top Dems Are Claiming This Trump Tweet Is an Obstruction of Justice
Top Democrats are outraged over President Trump’s recent tweet calling on Attorney General Jeff Sessions to end special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe, saying it amounted to “obstruction of justice.”
“This is a terrible situation and Attorney General Jeff Sessions should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now, before it continues to stain our country any further,” Trump said Wednesday. “Bob Mueller is totally conflicted, and his 17 Angry Democrats that are doing his dirty work are a disgrace to USA!”

Sens. Tom Udall (D-N.M.) and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) as well as top House Democrats all agreed it crossed the line.
“As a former prosecutor, I call this obstruction of justice,” Udall tweeted Wednesday. “No one is above the law — not even the president. People in New Mexico and across the country are tired of ultra-rich and powerful people like Donald Trump trying to abuse their power to protect themselves.”

The President of the United States just called on his Attorney General to put an end to an investigation in which the President, his family and campaign may be implicated.
This is an attempt to obstruct justice hiding in plain sight. America must never accept it. https://t.co/F8b6a0IGOh
