I have yet to be impressed by Jeff Sessions.

Now that is another matter. I certainly expected a lot more from Sessions. And if Trump has any disagreement with Sessions i would think, or hope?, that is it.

I think it’s probably true, actually. Spicer was asked today if Trump had confidence in Sessions, and he dodged hard.

It’s really too bad, and I hope they can patch things up. Sessions caved on the recusal which really set the table for the fake news media to pressure his deputy into hiring a special counsel.

IIRC, the president was on a plane flying somewhere when the recusal happened, and was rightfully furious when he found out. Sessions should have talked to his boss about it beforehand. I still think Mueller clears him, but who knows. He may go after Flynn on a process crime, and the left will use that to muddy the resolution with some kind of vindication in that.

Holder NEVER would have recused himself for anything with Obama when he was running guns into Mexico, weaponizing the IRS, covering up a 911 terrorist attack to win an election, etc. Here we have a fake scandal and Sessions buckled almost instantaneously. In Sessions defense, the media never went after Holder hard (at all?) for a recusal on anything, but Jeff should have known what was coming.

Obviously, Trump didn’t help himself when he told Lester Holt he fired Comey for his handling of this witch hunt, but it might have never gotten to that if Sessions held firm in the first place.

You are right. We’ve yet to see the first piece of evidence of anything to do with this ludicrous “case”, but we already have a special counsel because Sessions didn’t hold firm.

The communist media did their job - they pressured until they got what they wanted in order to undermine the president and sow discord between him and his AG. Now, who knows how long this phony investigation drags on for.

Are you familiar with the computer equipment seized by the Capitol Police from the house of the Awan brothers? The equipment that DWS threatened the police chief for?
There is a theory that she regained this equipment when it was transported to Dearborn to be picked up by the FBI in this raid.
