What is there to say to this? I think Cpt. Obvious would make a better AG.

I would still love to see him pounce when everybody’s guard is down. Come on Jeff!

Sessions isn't going to "pounce" on anyone.

He legally tied his own hands with his recusal, and is forbidden to involve himself with any investigation or law enforcement activities that could potentially bring the traitors in our government to justice.

His deputy AG is stonewalling Congress and is directly responsible for launching the Mueller witch hunt, yet he defends and praises that rat bastard at every turn.

Sessions won't do the job he was hired to do, and won't step aside so a better man can do what needs doing. He is either blind, stupid, or compromised in some way. There is no 'plan', and he's not playing 4D chess 'behind the scenes', as so many Sessions supporters believe.

I believe Jeff Sessions is proof of the Peter Principle.

He’s basically been a government employee all his working life, and there lies his first and highest loyalty.

No offense, but that is the most simplistic analysis I have seen.

If Trump fires Sessions, Rosenstein, and Mueller, Congress will likely move to impeach him. It’s anyone’s guess as to whether he would survive that process. Given the current make-up of the House and Senate, there’s a better than even chance that he wouldn’t.

I don’t think you want that.

Sessions needs to search his soul and find the courage to fire Rosenstein and Mueller. If Congress wants to go after him for exercising his legal authority to do that, so be it, but he will have done the right thing, and protected the President against a flagrant coup attempt.

Hillary gets a group hug from the Justice Department/FBI who hosted a tea party for her. Complimentary donuts and coffee served up and for party entertainment a game of charades, an “interview” was the theme on her invitation, from FBI.

Hillary gets to have her best friends around her, including her fixer lawyer, Cheryl Mills.

No FBI questionaire exists.
No Hillary responses exists.
No camera, tape recording, or transcript exists.

Then comes AG Sessions, on DAY ONE.

Then comes AG Sessions recusal, on DAY TWO.

Sweet.

Rubenstein becomes (for all practical purposes) the Acting Attorney General and appoints a Special Counsel against Trump and family and associates and campaign supporters

What’s to bash, against Lonesome Jeff. Why, he’s been only a total no-show, on vaca, since DAY TWO.

Think what he has to deliver to make up for being AWOL, since DAY TWO. Oh, man! It better be BIG, that’s deadly certain. It better be BIG.

AWOL used to land you in the clink.

Need anyone say more about Jeff, the cheer leader for the Swamp embeds, at JD and FBI?

So a Special Counsel for Deep State corruption is “willy-nilly”?

But Special Counsel Mueller investigation is soooo important that Session's hasn't said a word for a year and a half, and when asked about it says...oh golly gee it's taken on a life of it's own.

Such BS.

Did they ask Sessions what Dems have recused themselves?

And why only Republican weasels do it?

Sessions believes strongly in the Double Standard.

Hillary and the Dems counted on it. No way the Dems will ever let Sessions retire.

He could be AG for life.

I’m afraid they’ll get Trump in a perjury trap or the rats will take the house before Sessions gets around to doing anything of consequence.

Read Louie Gohmert’s 48 page report on Muller that came out today. Muller is a bad guy who has no conscience about playing REALLY dirty.

I think Sessions smokes weed every day at 4:20.

He needs to prove that he doesn’t.

That reasoning is absurd. What grounds for impeachment do you see there? I can’t even make one up!! That is clear presidential prerogative. The Senate will NEVER get 67 votes to convict!!NEVER!! Convict of what? We need to quit this feeble weakness and kick some butt and it better happen PDQ.

It was all because of the Cooper Church amendment which cut off all funding for the free people of South Vietnam. It was pure Murder. We had already won the war. We had less than 4000 troops there after as high as 500,000, Our POWS were released!! Then the DEMOCRAT bastards cut off the money?? you can’t make that crime up. Blasphemy for the 55,000 men that died to stop the communist aggression but totally erased by DEMOCRATS stopping the supplies to the South. Unbelievable.

It's called Obstruction of Justice, and if you don't think the dirty traitors in Congress can make it stick, you've got another think coming.

This is what "Special Counsels" do; especially when there is no oversight.

Sessions more or less gave Mueller the keys to the justice department, and he's surprised he's still going?
