I could not agree with you more. WE need an AG who is going to aggressively investigate and prosecute all the obama clinton scandals and thrown these dirty democrats in jail! Sessions is a failure. Totally!

[JayGalt]

Thanks, will check it out.

[LongWayHome]

I like Sessions. Great on immigration, but Trump is 100% correct. Jeff screwed him over.

Because they are Fairies who could not accomplish anything in the business world. Someday, The GOP will get serious and look at the difference between children raised in a two parents (male female) home and people like Paul Ryan.

Why is it most Republicans turn out to be disappointments?

Several of us were making very disparaging remarks when Boehner first became Speaker. Others on FR skewered us for our remarks. By the end of Boehner's first term as speaker, even his former supporters were making negative posts about him.

Recall that McConnell stated we needed a Republican majority in the Senate -- give it to him and he would show that Republicans can lead. Well, Mitch has turned out to be another abject FAIL and has yet to show he can lead.

Brilliant idea!

“Sessions should have never recused himself and if he was going to recuse himself he should have told me before he took the job and I would have picked somebody else,” Mr. Trump said.

Can't disagree with that, but the issue of Sessions possibly recusing himself was known before his senate hearing even began. Someone in the administration should have been planning what stance the nominees would take on various issues, and especially one of this importance. There should have been discussions and an agreement before hand that Sessions would not recuse himself.

It might be best if Sessions resigned. But not only was the question of his recusal not discussed in advance, but Trump pulled probably his strongest supporter in the Senate and he has no excess of support there. This would be a loss on many levels, and Alabama will have lost its best senator in many years.

The administration still needs an organizer and planner in the WH that it has lacked from the beginning, maybe a strong chief of staff.

Great article. Check out the quote at the end of it:

“There wasn’t much I could say about Hillary Clinton that was worse than what I was already saying,” he said. “Unless somebody said that she shot somebody in the back, there wasn’t much I could add to my repertoire.”

Was that a veiled Seth Rich reference?

[Arm_Bears]

Dumb like a fox, perhaps.

Missing the essential......Sessions has already offered Trump his resignation during the recusal debacle. TRUMP DID NOT ACCEPT IT. Is this the reason why?

Hillary's emails popped on Anthony Weiner’s laptop. The emails were transferred by Clinton aide and confidant, Huma Abedin to her husband’s laptop. They were inadvertently uncovered by the NYPD during their probe of Weiner for sending sexually explicit emails to a minor. The timing of the revelation could not have been worse for Clinton – just 11 days prior to the election.

FBI, DOJ Raid Huma Abedin Brother and Sister's Dearborn Home
Jody Rossell ^ | 06/03/17 / FR Posted by Enlightened1

On June 1, 2017 a raid took place in a home in the 7200 Block of Jonathon Street in Dearborn, Michigan which is owned by a “shell company,” turns out it’s actually owned by Huma Abedin’s brother and sister. This shell company is the Journal of Muslim Affairs. Important to note, Huma worked as an Assistant Editor for this company at one time.

Several FBI and DOJ officers left Washington enroute to Dearborn……convoys of cars descended on the home located at 7246 Jonathon Street, assisted by other law enforcement officers from neighboring locals.

During the Clinton campaign last summer, if you recall, we didn’t see Huma Abedin for awhile, she had apparently made a trip to Dearborn, Michigan. A few months before she left to visit her brother, Hassan Abedin’s home in Dearborn, she was interviewed by the FBI about Hillary Clinton’s lost emails. Upon Abedin’s testimony to the FBI, it is reported that a laptop containing an archived copy, along with a thumb drive, were lost in the mail.

Apparently after it was reported that Huma and Anthony Weiner would be getting a divorce shortly after Weiner was convicted in May, the story takes a different turn, they moved back into their home in New York City. Hmmm, this begs the question, is Weiner still going to prison?

Only 24 hours after the Weiner’s moved back into their home the Raid in Dearborn took place. It is assumed that when Huma left during Hillary’s campaign last summer, she made that secret trip to Dearborn to hide the archived copies of the missing emails. Events now are falling into place.

Thing is I think Sessions is an honorable man. He knows the law, but really the President does not. Recusal before Sessions KNEW anything stunk.

[pangaea6]

Rudy seems like a pit bull and said he would go after hillary. Maybe him finally? Who else on the AG list?

As you may have read---the divorce is off and Anthony's moving back in. I guess Huma needs to keep Anthony close-by to keep his mouth zipped (not his pants).

Anthony might spill the beans about Huma's endless line of cousins dipping into Hillary's State Dept 's numerous slush funds...... Huma's cousins becoming millionaires sucking up our tax dollars.

Also has A LOT to do w/ Huma's having the wherewithal to pay a pricey 12,000 monthly rental.....w/ her cut of thecousins' millions.

=========================================

REFERENCE----This'll give you nightmares, people.....counting up the endless line of Huma's cousins w/ their greedy Muslim hands in the State Dept cookie jar.

UNDER HOUSE ARREST---This smirking creep is Huma's first cousin AKA a serial swindler
He subsidized businesses w/ our tax dollars looted from Hillary's State Dept. He made six million dollars vanish.

EXCERPT--“Thanks for getting in touch. Would love to arrange a meeting,” Huma Abedin replied in a June 23, 2009, email to her cousin Omar Amanat and Shamil Idriss, who heads New York-based Soliya Inc.

In May 2010, then-Secy Clinton helped Soliya get access to U.N. funding by making the U.S. a participant in a U.N. high-tech media initiative called the Alliance of Civilizations. Then in October 2010, the State Department directly awarded Soliya $1.25 million for a media technology project. “Huma helped Omar make KIT appear more valuable because of its association with the Alliance of Civilizations, which was approved by Hillary and funded in part by U.S. grants (tax dollars),” said an attorney familiar with the case.

“This helped Omar raise money for KIT, which he and his brother misappropriated for other purposes. Approximately $6 million has vanished.”

Amanat took KIT Digital public in August 2009. At the time, Amanat, known as a “serial swindler,” was in personal bankruptcy and being sued by other investors. Despite his reputation, he still managed to gain special access to US government tax dollars thanks to his ties to his well-positioned cousin and the Clinton Foundation.

THE MONEY LAUNDRY Records show that Omar Amanat and several other Abedin family members and related charities have together donated as much as $1.2 million to the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative, as well as the Clinton Health Access Initiative.

Omar Amanat, Abedin's cousin, who personally contributed as much as $25,000 to the Clinton Foundation, was appointed to the Council on Foreign Relations during the time that Hillary Clinton was serving as secretary of state.

While the FBI has apparently closed its espionage investigation into Clinton’s unsecured private email server (the House has reopened it), its public corruption investigation into the Clinton Foundation remains open.

It’s not clear if this still-active probe overlaps with the Amanat fraud investigation. However, investigators reportedly continue to look into alleged “pay-for-play” schemes involving the Clinton State Department and the Clinton Foundation and its wealthy donors, as well as entities that paid the Clintons millions of dollars in speaking fees.

Judicial Watch and other government watchdog groups have charged that the Clinton Foundation was a pay-for-play operation that rewarded its benefactors with State Department favors. And tax dollars....all you could possibly want.

Trump's #1 mistake.

Finally!

[LongWayHome]

It’s a mess & a damn shame. Jeff was excellent in the senate. He should still be there as the point man on immigration.

[itsahoot]

It’s a dumb comment by Trump.

It is the smartest thing he has done since Mueller was appointed.

[Will88]

And then there’s that Hillary treason and the Clinton crime family thing that AG Sessions has no interest in investigating.

On that, Trump himself said the Clintons had been through enough. He'd have to change his mind again if he thinks the AG should go after the Clintons.

[JudyinCanada]

It seems to me that anyone who has been in Washington for any length of time is a lot of talk, but very timid when it comes to action. Looks like an entire team of outsiders is needed to get things done.

Perhaps Cruz could replace Sessions. I don’t care for him, and didn’t like what he did to Dr. Carson, but you have to admit, he sticks to his guns.
