and Bharara was told he could stay on.
And now, when Trump is faced with a huge number of high positions to fill, Sessions empties out 45 more positions, on a Friday, right after Bharara gets a request from Ethics watchdogs to look into the legality of Trump's money deals while in office.

trump does not want anyone looking into his money deals, cause the truth about the Rusian money laundering would be revealed.
Right now just a few are putting that picture together.
I am real comfortable with my interpretation, but will allow room for it to be even worse than I could think, cause that seems to be the way Trump works.
