Rules work the same for both parties, but I think I was unclear, again. USAs serve at the pleasure of the President, but I think that it is improper for the administration to try to influence specific investigations for political purposes (such as pressuring a USA to indict the other party's candidate just before an election) or to pressure a USA to exercise the power of his office to further a partisan political agenda.
