What's up with Jeff Sessions?
youtube ^ | 10/15/2017 | The Still Report

Posted on 10/16/2017 2:43:21 PM PDT by Signalman

Judge Jeanine Pirro interviews Congressman Ron DeSantis (R).

Very interesting information at the end of this short video re: Imran Awan and Debbie Wasserman Schultz. DeSantis said Awan, while residing in Pakistan, was transferring "terrabytes" of information to Pakistan! He also said that Awan's wife is going to be testifying against him in the criminal case against him.

AG Sessions does not inform the public of his ongoing activities and neither should he.

Really?

Do a search on Sessions announces investigation and see that he does announce investigations.

FR really disgusts me at times.

People trashing FR and making things up disgust me.

Is there a law that says I have to have a blow-by-blow description of what the AG is doing? I’m interested, but not obsessed in knowing every move being taken by the DOJ like some people here. I trust President Trump to know what’s going on there, and to make changes if, and when the time comes. Obviously you don’t.

There's an element on FR that does not share the Deplorable agenda. They're the same ones who for years tried to talk us down because "Obamacare would be repealed after the next election". They used to tell us to vote for "the lesser of two evils".

Jeff Sessions and Steve Miller were there all through the campaign, even when most pols were waiting for Trump to fail. I do not believe President Trump would have or could stay grounded in Constitutional Conservative principles without AG Sessions mentoring. I can only conclude that those who wanted to get AG Sessions fired, and almost did, are those "conservatives" who think of us as voting fodder and think of our issues as phony campaign rhetoric.

I'm a Deplorable, for sure. But more than that, I'm 100% an AG Sessions fan. Without his stead hand, principles, and knowledge of both the Judiciary and the DC swamp, President Trump would not have a chance.

DGAS about your former profession. If Trumo wanted something done, it would be done. He works for the President, not some malcontents hiding behind a keyboard.

There probably isn’t a law that says you get a blow by blow description of whatever goes on at the DOJ, but there are several laws on the books that your good buddy Jeffery Sessions has decided don’t apply to former administration officials.

Sounds a lot like former AG’s Holder and Lynch, laws weren’t for them either.

Come January of 2021 when President elect Clinton is sworn in good old Jeff Sessions will be right there, pledging his support to the new President.

"Greasy", huh?

Funny that the supporters of Jeff Feckless insist he is doing "something" and we can't prejudge him, but anyone associated with Trump that is target by the dirty Mueller and his team of out of control and lawless Democrat lawyers (including the immoral, unethical, and homosexual Andrew Weissmann who committed misconduct during the Enron trials) is automatically guilty.

But it is the job of Jeff Feckless to be the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of the United States. Not to be a recused, roll over coward that ignores the blatant crimes of Democrats, including treason, illegal surveillance, espionage, bribery, theft, abuse of the IRS, abuse of the FBI, obstruction of justice, and possibly murder.

I don't know what game Feckless thinks he is playing, or what he has done in secret. Was he blackmailed? Bought off? Or is he simply a sniveling little coward?

I don't know for sure.

But I do know that Feckless has violated his oath. He is not supporting, nor defending, the Constitution of the United States. By not pursuing justice, and allowing the Deep State to run amok, he is an enemy of the Good.

There is a verse from the Bible that maybe Feckless should read:

If he didn’t follow the President’s orders he would soon be gone.

How privy are we in the public? We are not except what the media empire states and what the president states in his daily emails. Go back and look at how Trump has supported Sessions.

I hope you are right. I know the president was ticked off at him for the very reasons many of us are ticked off at him.

Corruption is one of the most corrosive things that can happen to a nation and its government, when it is not persecuted even when it is clear laws have been broken, the government gets more corrupt and liberty recedes.

I don't think I am alone in being very excited that Jeff Sessions was going to be AG. I remember Trump sticking a white MAGA hat on Jeff early on - not sure Jeff wanted on at that point. But Sessions being around Trump was a huge signal that Trump was a okay.

That is why to me he has been so disappointing instead of going after obvious and historic corruption he lets Trump twist in the wind with recusal - Rosinstien too but he wasn't part of the campaign.

The democrats colluded with the press and had a fixed primary with a crook as its nomination laundering CGI money through Canada into democratic imcumbants(superdelegates) campaigns and we get crickets- he resuscitates D.A.R.E, a failed program from the 80's. Sorry thats bogus and shows how out of touch he is - like all Senators - every single damn one!

So how long do we wait? I thought I was being patient for 6 months. Now we have a rouge special consul in Mueller digging into Russia on Trump and nothing on the actual crook HRC.

Its rather frustrating - so give us a time limit when does Sessions officially suck?

Sessions is not the enemy. He is trying to drain the swamp.

Here are what some of the enemies of Jeff Sessions are saying (go to the articles for the specific accomplishments):

Jeff Sessions has done more damage in his first 100 days than his boss

US attorney general Jeff Sessions may not be part of the biggest investigation in the Department of Justice, but as he reaches 100 days in office, there’s little doubt that he’s had an important impact on the American criminal-justice system—potentially for years to come.

Despite the political turmoil of the Trump administration, Sessions has moved to reverse a tide of progressive reform and to fulfill his boss’s law-and-order agenda, a collection of concepts loosely articulated during the 2016 presidential campaign. Sessions’ biggest actions, from undermining federal oversight of police departments to cracking down on undocumented immigrants, have worried a wide array of lawmakers, law-enforcement leaders, advocates and scientists.

“Of all the cabinet members, maybe even the president, he has to this point had the most significant impact as to policy changes,” said Jesselyn McCurdy, the deputy director at the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) Washington Legislative Office told Quartz.

Unlike his boss, Sessions is delivering on what he has promised—sometimes on causes he has championed for decades.

“There’s been a great bipartisan movement by organizations on the ground and members of Congress to reform the federal criminal-justice system, based on successes that have happened in the states, but the leader of opposition to that reform was Jeff Sessions, as a senator from Alabama,” McCurdy said. “These are all things that [Sessions], as a criminal justice reform opponent, had on his radar already.

McCurdy said Sessions was “definitely” living up to the ACLU’s concerns, and in some areas, fulfilling the worst-case scenarios.

Jeff Sessions ushers in 'Trump era' at the Justice Department

In just over two months, Sessions has proved to be a central figure in effectuating Trump's vision for America in tangible ways on immigration, crime, police reform and civil rights.

And while the White House searches for new messaging to frame what Trump has accomplished in the first 100 days in office, Sessions has single-handedly managed to make several significant domestic policy changes -- from pressing pause on implementing police reforms to withdrawing Obama-era protections for transgender students in public schools.

His radical transformation of the Justice Department's role is no accident.

Many of the changes Sessions has made thus far track a familiar principle of federalism: the notion that the federal government's powers are limited and it can't coerce states into action. In other words, the federal government should get out of the states' way.

Sessions' critics worry that he is well on his way to undoing many of the major progressive achievements of his predecessors, often by withdrawing from court cases or previous directives that fail to align with his views. Yet Trump supporters cheered Sessions on during the presidential campaign when he said, "the American people are not happy with their government."

Now that Sessions is the nation's top law enforcement officer, his defenders and critics universally agree: he's been busy fulfilling the President's campaign promises and he's just getting started.

What he is or is not does not discount AG Sessions unwillingness to pursue justice against HRC, etc. for the American People.

Indeed. Sessions is about creating more chain of commands and police seizures, not about the questioning of such chain of command. He is a pu$$y militarist
