Cornyn represents everything that is wrong in Washington and the GOPe.

Primary this POS!


Believe me, we’ve tried!!

BIG establishment $$ always trounces any new, good candidates that surface.

The only way these fools seem to ever get replaced is if they retire (enter cRuz replacing Kay Bailey), or pass away.

The fact that “Big John” Cornball exposed himself so blatantly, on Tucker’s show, is amazing.

POTUS, Trump should dig his heels in on this one, and support his AG, Jeff Sessions, 100%!!! I can assure you folks, ex-POTUS Obama is behind this “Russia” gig 100%!!!

First, there is nothing to it, second, Obama is both a traitor and turncoat and should be publically cuffed and arrested for sedition and treason!!

Saw him on Tucker last night. I was disgusted. He tried to weasel out of his comments like the coward he is. NO we voted for a wall, and I hope to high heaven that you, McCain, graham, Rubio, Collins, and a couple of others get voted out.

The establishment beholden to the special interests like the Chamber of Commerce are pulling their strings, and more and more people have had enough of this crap. We also have had enough of the media lying, and the left talking about frigging Russia. Every question is about Russia. Shut the hell up about Russia.

Franken asked Sessions what he would do (read recuse himself or no) if any Trump campaign reps were found to have had contact with the Russian government in the course of said campaign.

Sessions responded that he was unaware of any such activities and that he himself (sometimes called a surrogate) did not have communications with the Russians and was unable to comment on it. He unfortunately did not then disclose that he had two meetings with the Russian ambassador as part of his Senate Committee work which is now giving the mouthfoamers basis to quibble about semantics.

It would’ve been prudent for him to clarify that he had met with the Russian ambassador as part of his Senate Committee to avoid any confusion, appearance of disception, harping opportunities from the left wingnuts...

Sessions was not a member of the Trump administration while Trump was on the campaign trail.

Zero Hedge has a real vendetta with the Trump administration.

Do you mean a vendetta against Trump? I don't see that at all.

I’m guessing very few, if any, senators have cause to meet with the Russian ambassador. But Sessions says his two meetings during the campaign course were instead part of his work on the Senate Armed Services Committee. According to The Hill, they polled the 26 SASC members on this, and of the 20 that had thus far responded, none had met with the Russian Ambassador. It remains to be seen whether this is fake news or not.

While not a fan of such personally, I don’t know of anything that precludes a Senator of talking with foreign gov officials.

Where it gets muddy with Sessions is that he denied such under oath and is now the AG.

That’s the bottom line. While I am curious to the content of Flynn, Sessions, others conversations with Kislyak, unless it is found that the Russian Gov, in conjunction with the Trump campaign, brainwashed or changed votes of the electorate, this is all moot. Next you know, Pelosi and Warren will be yammering for mandatory scans of computer chips in all our heads.

Interesting point. Who first start planting the Trump/Putin seeds? Was is it response to something he said (i.e. Putin was a stronger leader than Obama)?

The DOJ holdover and/or obamaomau-ites are ‘leaking’ to NYT to try to oust Sessions after a little over 2 weeks in office—

this immediately AFTER it is announced that a “slush fund” of internal DOJ monies has been discovered in which DOJ funds were mis-directed, federal funds— directed by the “JUST-US” holder and lynch gang members exclusively to left wing/marxist “legal rights” organizations to. fund. them. To fund their activities from WITHIN the US Government. Under the direction of Holder and Lynch. And... who would they be most afraid of kicking out their cockroach selves other than Attorney General Sessions— who is just getting started.

After all these are ALL groups that SHOULD be funded by US Taxpayers shouldn’t they? For “environmental rights” “civil” rights for certain lives that matter, and rights for liberation theology of the Comintern variety.

What investigation schiff/nunes.... there will be nothing there, there.

You see there is “war in heaven” heaven=white hats vs. obamaumao marxist black hats of the so called deep intel community. The white hats have won every major battle. A neutered national lying leaker proven media will NOT be able to actuate a “watergate”, because the true public is having none of this. Things are, to say the least, different then the watergate wapo nyt playbook. But, uh, Valerie Jarrett did move in to the DC home of the obamaumaos (to continue to receive a shell of “those” secret service protection squad— such as it is).
