Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) told Breitbart News on Wednesday that he and other House Judiciary Committee Republicans had met with Sessions at the Justice Department on September 28 in advance of an upcoming committee hearing with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein later this month.

Gaetz said that when he asked Sessions to appoint a special counsel to investigate the 2010 Uranium One deal and Fusion GPS, the attorney general stood up, said he could not discuss the matter because he had recused himself, and walked out of the room, leaving them with a group of Rosenstein staffers “who showed no interest.”

It’s way past time Sessions recused himself from the job of Attorney General. Sessions needs to go away.

There is something seriously wrong with an AG who continues to recuse himself.

WHY did he accept this position if he continuously recuses himself from important items that need to be investigated?

Put your balls on, Jeff, and join the fray.

Or just get the hell out and let someone else have at it.

If this is true the President needs to fire him. Now. Why not just recuse yourself from ANY matter that might involve criminal activity???

Sessions is working on the Foundation. Mueller is investigating all of Hillary’s other scandals. IMO

All that’s left is for Sessions to start talking about strawberries and geometric logic.

Sessions is a Deep Statist. A rock for leftists to cling to.

Freepers have told me that Sessions is an honorable guy? Where is this honor?

At the point, there cane only two possibilities

There are already secret criminal investigations already in process or Sessions needs to go.

The problem is that Jared or someone gave Trump bad advice on Rosenstein, who Dems know is on their side, so they’d try to stop any replacement for Sessions, and probably with McCain, Corker & Flake helping.

“It’s way past time Sessions recused himself from the job of Attorney General.”

He seems to be desirous of not offending Progressive scu*bags, thereby not being the object of their obnoxious, intolerable, self-righteous wrath.

IMHO

Or he’s just too tired to come to work. Maybe he is sick, heart trouble, depressed...

I was such a fan.

Now hes’s AWOL. If it were the military he’d be in the stockade for 90 days awaiting discharge
