Senator Jeff Sessions was confirmed on Wednesday as President Trump’s attorney general, capping a bitter and racially charged nomination battle that crested with the procedural silencing of a leading Democrat, Senator Elizabeth Warren.

Mr. Sessions, an Alabama Republican, survived a near-party-line vote, 52 to 47, in the latest sign of the extreme partisanship at play as Mr. Trump strains to install his cabinet. No Republicans broke ranks in their support of a colleague who will become the nation’s top law enforcement official after two decades in the Senate.

This is treasonous sedition and we need a very harsh Crack down for this obstructing justice. I am very hopeful that the bitch sheriff obstructs justice and is immediately detained by our FBI!! We are going to make her an imprisoned example and then we are going to san fag siko and chicago and crack them down. We are going to get our country back big time!!

So beautiful considering LYNCH and HOLDER as the previous occupants of this position.

And that Kenyan born phony is still running around loose.

Trump needs to use this Friday afternoon to fire hundreds if not more people. DOJ and otherwise. Can’t give notice bc they will subvert.

Now the fun begins. From Eric Holder to Jeff Sessions..how the pendulum has swung.

It was only “bitter” because of the ‘rat drama queens.

Just absolutely despicable partisanship on display from the Democrat party

That is because unlike the GOP the democrat hard core base will primary out any senator that doesn't toe the commie party line

As one with West Virginia roots, I’ll stand with Senator Manchin!

“Will be interesting to see his priorities in the next few weeks.”

I have some suggestions:
1. Identify and purge all the Obama political appointees.

2. Request the resignations of all U.S. attorneys and decide which ones to retain. (I seem to remember Clinton did this at the beginning of his administration.)

3. Get a competent Solicitor General on-board.

4. Halt all current civil rights proceedings against citizens pending a full review of its merits.

5. Purge the Voting Rights division and prepare to audit the voting laws and records of all 50 states and D.C.

That’s for starters.

They are now the party of “NO”.

They might be well advised to become the party of Nolo Contendre

OK. Who is the next DJT cabinet member to be stalled by the Blue Sims Party?

Just read that the sheriff
of Travis county is
processing their holds
of criminal illegals faster
so they can bond out.
By the time ICE shows up
with the warrants, the criminals
are long gone. I may have
misinterpreted this but I
hope not.
I apologize for not being
able to post a link.
