Yeah, Sessions is part of the Swamp.
Really meanie-old FReepers, really?
One of the greatest statesmen in modern American political history. Accomplished AG in both Alabama and now in the DoJ. Senator. And has been the point man on immigration, rule of law, and sovereignty, is suddenly a Swamp mole designed to destroy Trump?
So, Sessions should give press conferences every five minutes on what he's doing? Provide leaks to the very same Swamp and Fake News Media that's trying to destroy his boss?
Excuse me, he's not the DOJ solely by himself. Um, he has staff. Underlings. Associates.
You don't think he's already investigating the Clintons, the Obamas, the Holders, and various other Dem/Rat officials and surrogates?
If Trump wanted him gone he would have done so already. Why do you think he hasn't?
Because Sessions has a role to play. Think of Chief Moose during the D.C. Sniper shootings. He was the head "spokesperson." Somewhat bumbling, a cross between Inspector Gadget and Dudley Do-Right, but the FBI and local/state police did the real nitty-gritty.
Why not trust Trump and let events play out like they're going to?
Sessions is taking down MS-13. He has the Antifa and other left-wing orgs in his sites. He's picking apart the low-hanging fruit of the Soros-DNC tentacles while others focus on the big fish.
So please, give Sessions some space, OK?
Excellent post, as well was that of the thread author.
We would point out that Your Hero has said he will not prosecute anyone, and he has recused himself from significant cases including Uranium One. He is a fraud, sorry.
DOJ cannot confirm or deny the existence of ongoing investigations.
I’m with you.
My government is a different matter. I don't think every crook will ever be found. Hillary, now... she's the whale of crooks. Maybe she won't see the inside of a jail cell, but let's not disarm before at least engaging the issue.
Because he has recused himself from anything connected to the election, and he's defined that term broadly. He says this, and I take him at his word.
I wasn't suggesting anyone 'disarm'. We need to keep the pressure on Sessions and everyone else in government.
My point was that we need to understand why things don't just happen in 60 minutes, why the bad guys aren't arrested after the last commercial break.
I disagree. Politicians work hand in hand with drug lords. Deprive those politicians of that source of income, and you can reduce their power. Prove the connection and you can take them down.
SO... you think that even though it takes time, you still want instant results ? How would you (or the general public) know if he was about to pounce on 'one of them' ?
Fire Rosenstein. Fire Sessions or get him to resign. If the Senate doesn’t confirm a new AG, designate Mike Pence as acting Attorney General until they do. Problem solved.
Just exactly what would you charge Hillary with and what would you do different than Sessions is doing (ignore the fact that you don't really know what all Sessions is doing) ?
What these anti-Sessions posters are mad about is that Sessions and Trump are not just violating every law and principle of our Constitution and Judicial System like the Dems do when they go after someone. They don’t realize the hypocrisy in their impatience.
Just exactly what would you charge Hillary with and what would you do different than Sessions is doing”
I wouldn’t recuse myself.
You can’t charge until you investigate, there’s no investigation on Hillary. If there’s a secret investigation, that’s dumb. Make it public, very public, with new allegations in the news everyday.
“(ignore the fact that you don’t really know what all Sessions is doing) ? “
Not true. I KNOW that Sessions recused himself.
You don’t KNOW that he’s doing anything.
It's been going on much longer than that. Even if it was only 8 years, why do you think it could be 'fixed' in 8 months ?
Everyone involved in this conspiracy to overthrow a lawfully elected POTUS needs to be tried for high treason and hanged on the national mall.
True. Now, considering that involves at least 50% (and more like 80%) of the politicians, the media, and the population, JUST HOW LONG would it take YOU to do that ?
You are correct. It would be helpful to those who are the subject of that focus. It would help if the information would prejudice their case so that they could legally get away with their crimes.
So wed like to know who he has assigned to follow up on current events.
So would those who are the subject of investigation. Maybe Sessions should just list the names and give photos of all the agents involved in these investigations along with the alleged crimes they have committed.
Do you not see the folly of your wishes ?
Poor baby
Sessions was a poor choice for AG and now Trump is stuck with him. The good old boys in the GOP leadership have warned Trump not to fire Sessions because they know he isn’t going to do jack about draining the swamp they love to dwell in.
And what if the Uranium One deal is what eventually gets Hillary prosecuted, instead of the other issues ? What will you say then ?
Who to believe? My Representative, Rep. Matt Gaetz, is a stand up guy. I trust HIM.
He “told Breitbart News on Wednesday that he and other House Judiciary Committee Republicans had met with Sessions at the Justice Department on September 28 in advance of an upcoming committee hearing with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein later this month.
Gaetz said that when he asked Sessions to appoint a special counsel to investigate the 2010 Uranium One deal and Fusion GPS, the attorney general stood up, said he could not discuss the matter because he had recused himself, and walked out of the room, leaving them with a group of Rosenstein staffers who showed no interest.
He said that anything that had to do with 2016 election, or Russia, or the candidates in the 2016 election, fell under the scope of his recusal, and he left the room, Gaetz said.
It was Sessions position that his recusal on the Russia matter divorced him from any oversight on Uranium One and Fusion GPS. Thats troubling. Sessions recusal is a function of his involvement in the Trump campaign. In no world does that impact his judgment as it relates to Fusion GPS and Uranium One. But he views the recusal more broadly. Thats troubling because that puts Rosenstein in charge, he said.

Maybe he should just send you a letter outlining all his activities.
I understand the impatience over what seems like "nothing accomplished". Rome wasn't built in a day, it wasn't torn down in a day either.
