It's long past time to stop the utter bullsh!t about Congress "suckering" anyone on this. Sessions recused himself because he knew damn well that he was a target of illegal surveillance ... which meant that he could not investigate the matter because he is likely going to be a witness in any legal proceedings.
It's embarrassing to see so many people here on FreeRepublic who just assume someone like Sessions -- who has been a fixture in Washington for decades -- is politically naïve and dumb as a bag of sh!t.
Many of the chronic complainers are unreconstructed Never Trumpers. Others are faux conservatives who think taking the most extreme ideology trumps practical politics.
You can recognize them by the uninterrupted negativism they spout.
thank you
