A Monday morning Trump tweet will exacerbate concerns that the commander in chief believes he is not answerable to the law and that he could terminate the Mueller investigation or escape consequences if wrongdoing is unearthed by the probe, which is examining alleged collusion between Trump's campaign and Russia and whether the President obstructed justice.
"But there are issues that my legal government was not able to resolve," Rouhani said on Monday, referring to his failure to end house arrests - in part due to his lack of authority over hardline security forces answerable only to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei under Iran's complex system of dual theocratic and republican government.
Although the GDPR sets out a so-called 'one-stop-shop' principle — that there should be a "lead" DPA to co-ordinate supervision between any "concerned" DPAs — this does not mean that, once it applies, a cross-EU-border operator like Facebook is only going to be answerable to the concerns of the Irish DPA.
Especially at a museum that recently underwent its own kind of crisis of faith, after the former director Thomas P. Campbell resigned under pressure in February for not being able to control a ballooning budget deficit, and his president, Daniel H. Weiss, was promoted to president and chief executive — the next director answerable to him.
Beethoven's theme feels as resonant as ever in a country grappling with questions about mass incarceration; immigrants separated from their children at the border; whether the president is answerable to the law; and how inmates were quietly kept without heat or light for days in a federal jail in the middle of New York City.
In theory, he will be answerable to Jeff Sessions, the attorney-general, yet the fact that Mr Sessions has recused himself from playing any role in the Russian investigation—after he was also revealed to have kept weirdly shtum about meetings with the same Russian diplomat, Sergey Kislyak—is an additional guarantee of Mr Mueller's independence.
They had volunteered for this coalescing jihadist internationale and their new role was that of semiautonomous overseas assets who, for security reasons, were only be loosely answerable to ISIS HQ. In fact, the true headquarters of ISIS's foreign operations planning, at least for attacks in Europe, was the Syrian city of al-Bab, in Aleppo province.
Mourinho bridges the divide between the old conception of what a manager should be — an omniscient potentate, his fingerprints on every aspect of day-to-day life at a club, not answerable to a sporting director or a recruitment committee — and the more modern vision of what one should look like: handsome, charismatic, all brooding intensity.
He may ferret around town trying to strong-arm cabinet officials, and bark orders at members of Congress who are answerable only to their constituents, and try to wow the inarticulate president with malapropisms, but he has been a notably ineffective operator—the kind of buffoon liberals might want to keep around as a drag on the unified GOP government, if he weren't such a nasty figure.
Meddling in the US election One cannot open a US newspaper or news website without reading of some fresh piece of evidence that Russian intelligence operatives, now answerable to the former KGB lieutenant colonel Vladimir Putin, meddled in the last US election by buying demographically targeted advertisements on social media platforms or digitally masquerading as Americans of diverse, and at times contradictory, political orientations.
While one might fairly counter that professional football, unlike a federal Europe, has never had any pretensions to being a democracy, it's perhaps understandable that fans have become frustrated with a situation where – just as Vote Leave suggested was the case with the EU – Wenger is given a considerable sum of money each week by people he is not directly answerable to, many of whom are unhappy with the results.
While you could argue that not being answerable to the mercenary whims of shareholder pressure is a good thing because it frees Zuckerberg to raise business transformation needs above returns-focused investor considerations (albeit, let's see how his nerve holds after that $120BN investor punch) — his near 15-year record in the CEO's chair counters any suggestion that he's a person who makes radical and sweeping changes to Facebook's modus operandi.

After a period in which the brand was consciously prioritized over the creative, and designers' reach increasingly curtailed, so that they might be (like Mr. Simons in his former post at Dior) responsible simply for the women's wear on the catwalk, with advertising and store environments and celebrity ambassadors and so on dictated by a separate team answerable to management, the pendulum began to swing back and has been picking up momentum.
