Designed to delay action on the recently released IG report to Congress. “We won’t take action until all investigations by the IG are complete”

Sessions hasn’t been secretly investigating this?

Try two years.

There’s no way it gets done in a year. Then it is referred to the US Atty in DC, the peeps that have done nothing with McCabe.

The OIG is the safe way for the DOJ-FBI.

It may not be CYA behavior.

I take a step back and look at this differently than every other issue the Deputy AG is dealing with these days.

This isn't just the President of the United States telling the U.S. Justice Department to investigate a matter. It's a person who is making an allegation -- with the backing of a lot of evidence being presented in the media in recent days -- about something that happened when he was still Donald J. Trump (civilian).

Narrowly? Is “obstruction of justice” narrowly construed? Is “collusion”? Is “Russia”? No, let “political purposes” be anything that might hinder the Trump campaign and benefit Hillary’s.

I was going to give you a "my bad", but then I went to the original article. It says "May 20, 2018." So, there's a typo in the post.

The only thing Sessions has investigated in 15 months is just how far he can bend over for Rosenweasel, Comey and Mueller.

I would wager that the DOJ IG has already done that and will have a nice little report to release fairly soon that will cause a bunch of deep state operatives looking to move to countries without extradition to the US.

“Whahahaha. I’m sure they will get to the bottom of it.”

Read the article. This is an expansion of the work of the DOJ IG, Michael Horowitz.
Which means that whatever criminal matters are uncovered will be referred to the Hon. AG Jeff Sessions and John Huber.

Do you not see the asteroid about to hit the corrupt Planet of the Rats?
Wake up FRiends!

why is it inferred that Sessions cannot do this because he has recused himself from Russian matters... This has nothing to do with Russia. This is all US government work.

Rosenstein asks the DoJ Inspector General to look into his own crimes ?

I like your idea better.

Have the Secret Service, or better yet US Marshalls, escort them to their offices to collect the documents and then escort them to the House and personally observe the hand off.

It could be done by 10.

Once again if either one of them so much as twitches an objection, stops to take a leak, or get coffee, fire them on the spot.

Secure their offices and electronic devices, and order the IT staff to download everything and print it out for the President to personally review.

In a statement, Rosenstein said: “If anyone did infiltrate or surveil participants in a presidential campaign for inappropriate purposes, we need to know about it and take appropriate action." The attorney general, Jeff Sessions, has recused himself from Russia-related matters.

How would that be "Russia-related?"
