So you want Trump to function with no AG at all, or with Rosenstein as AG. How would that be an improvement?

Gowdy is a joke. Sessions redux.

I think Jeff is a swamp creature with some good traits that fooled us all. What a disappointment

“he can’t fire him after half even the Repubs in the House threatened war on Trump if he did.”

Really? The Repubs in the House have been at full-fledged war with Trump since before the inauguration. He’s got nothing to lose.

he and/or his family could suffer very serious consequences.

Mass Arkancide? I am convinced there isn't one person who is safe from these slime balls. So, my question is, why can't they get fat boy, with the bad haircut to commit Arkancide?

Trump gains nothing from a never ending battle to replace Sessions. All the press all the time would be about how much Trump’s own party hates him. It would drag out for months—maybe longer.

“proof beyond a reasonable doubt that a government employee intentionally discriminated against an applicant for a tax-exempt status based on viewpoint.”

Should be obvious!

Both the Dems and the GOP know that if the truth is known the government will collapse.

Corruption at or above a certain level will simply not be investigated. That’s been clear for awhile now.

As I said, these are empty threats. Wear them down.

He could fire anyone in that department that he wants to. He also could, as the AG’s boss, order them to reopen the Lerner/IRS matter, the Hillary case, or whatever else he wants. But he doesn’t want to.

“They’ve suffered enough,” he says.

“Justice Department said it would not even reopen the investigation because officials require “proof beyond a reasonable doubt that a government employee intentionally discriminated against an applicant for a tax-exempt status based on viewpoint.””

How do you find proof if you don’t investigate?

In the case of Trump’s Russian non-scandal, not only are they investigating, they assigned a special prosecutor with unlimited power and resources!!

Session has been a major disappointment. In fact most of Trump’s picks have been huge disappointments - even to Trump who picked them!!

You are a Cruzer Never-Trumper. Anyone else could understand this situation. Only those with a visceral hatred of Trump are unable to grasp it.

Sessions is a PUSSY, afraid of the leftist Deep Staters that make up his DOJ staff. He’s meek & timid ... at best!

Who can be sure of the reason for this? One thing we know for certain is that Trump does not want his tax returns released. Many motives could be part of this decision, but it is very disappointing whatever the reason.
