Sessions pushes back on Trump after 'disgraceful' insult
CNN ^

Posted on 02/28/2018 10:52:52 AM PST by RevelationDavid

Responding to Trump's tweet, the attorney general said in a statement that the Justice Department "initiated the appropriate process that will ensure complaints against this department will be fully and fairly acted upon if necessary." "As long as I am the attorney general, I will continue to discharge my duties with integrity and honor, and this department will continue to do its work in a fair and impartial manner according to the law and Constitution," Sessions said.

I find it odd that Trump has to communicate with Sessions via Twitter, when both of them were in the same Cabinet meeting yesterday.

He is herding the MSM reporting and trolling for Democrat support for AG Sessions and DOJ IG Horowitz.

>>I say they are both reading their lines to perfection . . . the DNC doesn’t >>expect a thing.

This!

Rope a dope

The Democrats are defending Sessions, and propping Mueller, Horowitz, and Rosenstein up on a pedestal.

When the IG report drops, and Mueller and Rosenstein announce no Russian-Trump collusion (but plenty of Clinton-Russia collusion), the MSM and Democrats will be in the precarious position of trying to explain how mueller, Rosenstein, and sessions are all partisan hacks

Laughing in our faces because we fell for it by electing Trump.

You sound like you're broadcasting from CNN. Perhaps you think an insider like Jeb Bush or H.Clinton would have been way better.

Sessions is telling Trump “I’m good, all going as planned.”

I'm not a political "HACK" either, but even I would have done far better than Trump has!

I had wrongly assumed that because he has been interested in politics for most of his adult life, rubbed shoulders with a lot of pols, he would have known people inside of and outside of government whom he could 1) trust 2) agreed with his vision 3) had better skills 4) cleaner backgrounds 5) known enough to NOT pull the damned NEPOTISM CARD!

You knows even less than Trump does about this and far, far less than I and other non-pols do!

Next up...

Rosenstein writes a memo recommending Trump fire Sessions.

Mueller will be copied on said Recommendation

The DOJ is CORRUPT. Session's direct report, Rosenstein, recommended President Trump fire Comey. Trump then fired Comey.

After Trump fires Comey, Rosenstein hires Mueller to investigate why Trump fired Comey? Are you kidding? Rosenstein and Mueller need to be fired now.. The DOJ and Special Counsel are a JOKE.

These political hacks are a JOKE.

Rosenstein recommends Trump fire Comey, which leads to then hiring Mueller to investigate if Trump obstructed justice by firing who the DOH recommended that Trump fire?

Someone needs to fire Mueller, turn off his laptop access and FOR SURE stop the monthly payroll deposits into Mueller's checking account. This is a disgrace and We the People should NEVER being paying for Mueller's million dollar salary.

Rosenstein is a PUNK. He totally set President Trump up and Sessions is playing along. Why?

Make Mark Levin Attorney General. Please. and thank you.

Make Mark Levin Attorney General.

You mean the Mark Levin who refused to discuss or allow any discussion by callers of Obama's eligibility for the office of President on his show? That Mark Levin?

Defender of the Constitution?

My azz!

Does the word “Clueless” mean anything to you? It should

Chris Farrell on Lou Dobbs tonight:

"Most inspector generals are really the department's 'inspector of coverups'...The IG's office is where bad news goes to die. Anyone expecting the IG to come out with some devasting report is delusional."

Trump gets out of line and Sessions bitch slaps him. I have never seen a presidential personnel process so screwed up and appointees publicly cutting the presidents balls off. You would have never done this to Reagan, Clinton, the Bushes or Obama. They each had enforcers that would have roasted you live. If the press misconstrued a comment of yours to sound like you disagreed with No. 1, you ran to the WH explaining how that was wrong and issued a mea culpa or fought back.

Remember Rollins “ we beat his brains out”, or with the Clinton's, fort
marcy park?

It is quite remarkable how his appointees do it to him. It is an absolute sign of weakness.

A lot of people soured on Sessions early, myself included, but we were given a lecture to bide our time. What about now?!

____________________________

The IG’s report may be close to being released. Trump is probably trying to build some interest in its release since the media doesn’t talk much about it.
