Say Sessions--in order to get back into the Madman's good graces--announces he is unrecusing himself

....and is hereby firing Robert Mueller.

I'm assuming that while that's God's holy balls unethical, still possible?

Is it final? Is there any legal effect of a recusal? Are recusals final? Could a court enjoin Sessions from doing that?

I think we're in uncharted territory here so I honestly have no idea how any of this would play out.

Papadopoulos and Flynn were his Department. If he opens his mouth I expect a sealed indictment to be unsealed and him taken into custody.

I, too quickly of course, assumed that's exactly what he did after his lunch with dolt45.

The term constitutional crisis is overused but damn that would sure as shit start a real one off with a bang.
