I expect Sessions to resign before the week is out after his boss unloaded on him like that. Brutal!

Yes and finding a competent replacement after this public humiliation of Sessions will be extremely difficult. Then getting a new nominee confirmed without that person making a public pledge to act independent of the president will be impossible. In the best case, we will be looking at over six months without an Attorney General. We always have the current Assistant Attorney General who appointed the special counsel to fill in unless he resigns also. In that case, we are back to Obama holdovers running the department.

Yeah, right. Recess appointments are for One Year. Next year you re-do the recess appointment. In that year you attack like a shark!

The president can appoint a new attorney general, if he desires to do so, as a recess appointment, correct?
