Attorney General Jeff Sessions is under mounting pressure from the right to appoint a second special counsel to investigate conservative allegations of abuse at the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI.
Up to now, those calls have gone quietly unanswered, with officials pointing to the existence of a Justice Department inspector general investigation that is expected to wrap up sometime this spring.
But Sessions last week revealed that he has tapped a former official outside of the Beltway “with many years in the Department of Justice” to review the need for a special counsel, suggesting the idea is receiving a serious look.

The "special counsel" is not our friend. Explore the Last Refuge blog for an explanation. They seem to be primarily concerned with protecting government employees by trying to destroy non-government employees. Just what Mueller is doing. They have instituted a better option of using the inspector general who has a few hundred employee investigators and then using an outside of government prosecutor to charge the government employees.
