And have we seen anyone from the Obama administration charged yet?
Nope, and according to Chaffetz don't expect any, so long as Sessions is still the Attorney General. This is believed to be the core resion that Chaffetz resigned from chairman from the House Investigation Commitee, because Sessions was refusing to prosecute the referrals being sent over, starting with Hillary's IT guy.
If Sessions isn’t lining up his ducks prepatory to prosecuting egregious violations of the law...then yes he is useless
Chaffetz is a Mormon NeverTrumper. That should say everything about his opinions on the Trump Administration.
Where are the orange jumpsuits? So many crooks and crimes.
So far, Sessions has just been a place-holder. Why?
Well at least the man Sessions praised in a visit to Las Vegas last July is still on the job. Sessions praised Steven Myhre for his “leadership” and “standing for the law” in the case against Cliven Bundy and others.
Myhre got slammed for “willfully” withholding discovery evidence in the case last month with charges tossed out by the judge “with prejudice” meaning they can’t come back.
But don’t worry, Myhre and his associate prosecutors have filed arguments to bring the charges back against the Bundys and others.
What a great guy Sessions has at work out there in Vegas......sarc.......
Can you imagine getting up in years having been a respected Senator and deciding to participate as an accessory to an attempted a coup against a duly elected POTUS.
He’ll die in disgrace same as McCain. What makes a man do that?
The IG report is due in March. We can wait that long to see who are the real swamp things.
The IG was handcuffed by Obama. He isn't supposed to be today.
If no Democrat is charged with anything, I will happily join the chorus.
“starting with Hillary’s IT guy” yes and include Lois Lerner in that also.
This is what happens when you pick a long time sitting Senator to do a job, he is unable to go after his “friends”.
Jeffery Sessions is useless and a has been Attorney for a long time.
Whatever happened to his big leak investigation?
That is exactly the kind of thinking that got us to this point.
If we let this mountainous level of corruption pass unaddressed this time, what can we expect with the next 'Rat administration? We've already seen murders, theft of billion$, theft of classified materials, sale of strategic assets to enemies, people thrown in prison to hide malfeasance, high officials complicit in the murders of hundreds of Mexicans. What next, Mr. Sessions? What next?
To a certain extent Sessions is correct, and to an even larger degree, he’s wrong.
The correct part is that the charges would seem politically motivated and that the following administration bringing charges against the previous would be a never-ending circus.
Where he is wrong is that in this instance the previous administration engaged in a criminal conspiracy and even engaged in criminal acts in furtherance of criminal acts as an ongoing criminal enterprise. This cannot stand and needs to be prosecuted to the fullest extent provided by law. The people and the rule of law applied to all demands nothing less.
Hillary Clinton has a lifetime of criminality the demands prosecution and imprisonment. The most recent acts are the most egregious and the Uranium One deal is TREASON.
Sessions is the swamp. No one will be brought to justice.
its not possible to drain a swamp of the guy in charge of pulling the drain plug is refusing to pull it!
Easy for Chaffetz to say since he was a lousy congressman.
Sadly, there are some very anti-American scumbag former office Holders who don’t think Jeff Sessions is useless. Quite the opposite.
Isn’t chaffets dirty. Isn’t that why he resigned.?
I’ve been trying to give Sessions the benefit of the doubt but he either has to take solid action to redeem himself or go away...waiting for “The New Sheriff” in Town to do some “Sheriffing”..
Many months back when Trump wanted Sessions to resign I was perplexed. I thought Sessions a great guy. But as time has gone by I keep saying “Where is Sessions”? Its been over a year and what has he accomplished? If he needs to recuse himself…step down and go away.
I also find it interesting that talk radio hosts, avoid this subject seemingly protecting Sessions.
What good does it do to endlessly talk about the memo etc, when nobody in the justice department has the will to do anything about it?
Where is Sessions???
Draining the Beltway Swamp is not for the faint of heart. It requires planning, quick thinking, action, reaction, and a whole lot of alligator slaying before pulling the plug. There are already a good number of large 'gators missing or reassigned from the Swamp. Starting with Acting Attorney General Sally Yates, Comey, McCabe, Ohr, Baker, Page, Strozk, Rybicki, Laufman, Kortan, and now deputy to Rosenstein, Brand, are neutered, to name a few.
Do you think ANY of these would be sidelined if Loretta Lynch were Attorney General? Additionally, and maybe even more importantly, after the Yates memo which limiting Inspector General Horowitz's ability to uncover FBI wrongdoing, was cancelled, Horowitz was able to open up his Swamp clearing to where it is now. Much of the information we have seen in the past several months has been due to Horowitz.
I'm for giving Sessions and Horowitz a bit more time to kill some more 'gators before pulling the plug on them.
Sessions was the lone voice fighting against H-1B abuse in congress. I was a huge fan but he is asleep. He does need to go and this makes me feel awful having to say that.
Sessions still has Obama’s Minions at the DOJ and is using them as advisers
