you can t just do an end run around it and impose your own person. number two, even before the lawsuit, i think we have to think about the election on tuesday and the house democrats being in control of a branch of government and the house can simply say, you know, this is a fake attorney general. this is not someone we will fund the justice department with, as its head. they ll cut funding, they may say we ll only fund mueller and not fund anything else until you get a real attorney general. so that s the second thing. the third thing, absolutely i expect lawsuit after lawsuit. every single day, i served in the justice department, there are thousands of lawsuits. i have thousands of cases across the country in which the attorney general is the principaled it will gadget. yesterday i argued a case in philadelphia called the city of philadelphia versus sessions. by the time we walked out, we don t know what the case was called because sessions resigned and we don t knoll who the new
principaled leaders. it is no surprise to me they would end up as friends. dedication to service, they love their country, honor, and every good quality you can think of. john mccain is a u.s. senator, his father buried at arlington, it was an interesting choice to go back to annapolis. and i know it was so important to your husband, twice the superintendent of the u.s. naval academy, what was the draw to both of them. i think it is back to the beginning where it all began. their love of service and
politically conservative, but fiercely principaled and independent. and mccain s absence was felt this year in the u.s. senate due to declining health. a true warrior though, until the end. he battled this aggressive form of brain cancer that was first diagnosed back in 2017. mccain served as a u.s. navy aviator for more than 20 years. he was shot down over north vietnam, and he was captured and held there as a prisoner of war. that did not change his spirit, after he returned, he returned to politics after the war. he ran for president twice, and in 2008, he became the republican nominee, eventually losing to the former president, barack obama, shortly the news of his death broke, a prosession here, you can see the vehicles escorting the hearse from the property to the city of phoenix, arizona. mccain s wife, cindy, sent a
