Trump tweets: 'Disgraceful' that Sessions kicked surveillance probe to Obama appointee
MSN News ^ | 2/28/2018 | Dan Mangan

President Trump calls a decision by Attorney General Jeff Sessions "disgraceful" in a tweet.

Sessions has repeatedly angered Trump in moves related to a probe of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

Trump's tweet refers to Sessions' recent decision to have the Justice Department's inspector general review a request by prosecutors and the FBI to monitor Trump campaign official Carter Page and his suspected contacts with Russians.

I think there maybe some intentional distraction here. Horowitz past is conservative from when he was a clerk. Obama hired him and expected him to play ball with his AG, which he did not. I’d give Horowitz another 6-8 weeks to release his report before i would accuse him of being part of the deep state. Unfortunately he has to release it to the AG, whom I have little confidence in. But Nunes may get a copy and force the DOJ/FBI to retire a bunch of them.

Firing Sessions is not the problem - it’s what happens next.

His replacement needs Senate approval. 49 Democrats and the usual RINO suspects - McCain, Flake, Collins - will block approval of the new nominee, leaving democrat hack Rosenstein in charge for years.

Republican Senators owe their allegiance to the Senate Club, not the party, not the President, and definitely not America. Sessions is a member of the Club.

Mr. President, why do you keep tolerating A. G. Sessions ensulance toward you and the law? Fire the coward before he allows the establishment to complete their goal of taking you out. Do it for the country for God’s sake!

Why is there no Trump appointee in that role?

Why have IGs if they are not allowed do what they are charged with.

The Sessions/Trump handshake at the FBI get together earlier this year says otherwise. I think this tweet is entirely for public consumption.

“Firing Sessions is not the problem - it’s what happens next.
His replacement needs Senate approval 49 democrats”

WRONG. Trump can replace Sessions with the EPA’s Pruitt with a Senate confirmation. And Pruitt is a tough ass Prosecutor.

Someone who follows POTUS should tweet: “Sessions was chosen as AG, where he has been utterly ineffectual, and we lost his Senate seat in AL as a result. Choosing Sessions was DISGRACEFUL”

I have said in the past that I think Session is useless, but now I am inclined to think he is dangerous. His inaction is allowing the corruption to go on and encouraging even more. I will never forgive Sessions for putting President Trump in this position. Just imagine if Trump’s hands were free and he could work for US unimpeded by a phony investigation?

Damn you, Jeff Sessions.

Cavuto is a jackass and Rove is way beyond his prime. Can’t really stand either on of them.

Sessions was a terrible mistake. Sadly IMO Trump is stuck with him for the first term.
