“We are working hard to maintain discipline in the department”
Its a gentle way of saying he has lost all control.
I think the same way too. Obamatard flooded the DOJ with his minions Sessions has to watch his back in his own lair.
Or he could be admitting the Democrats are holding hostage, all of Trumo’s nominations to help work that Sump Pump known as the (In)Justice Department!
As a pessimist would say. I read it as;
The beatings will continue until the moral improves! IN other words, they are busy at draining the side pond at the swamp that has the main valve at the bottom of it.
“...saying he has lost all control.”
***************************
He never has had any control to lose, IMHO. The Deep Staters and the Obama holdovers have been running the DOJ & it’s subordinate agencies (e.g., the FBI) and they continue to have control. Sessions is too MEEK to assert control and actually lead the DOJ & its employees.
“We are working hard to maintain discipline in the department”
Sessions is admitting that his biggest problem is Obama holdovers at the DOJ and he can’t or won’t clean the swamp.
Time for a general to take over, kick butt and fire and replace...
Or reign in those out of control to recapture control that had been lost before he ever got there. Obama embedded so many loyalists in all departments. It will take a while to extract them, if that is even possible.
Until he makes an example out of a couple of people he is going to continue to work hard to try and control traitors in the DOJ.
Its a gentle way of saying he has lost all control.
He never had control. The DOJ is a snake's den of entrenched holdover radicals, especially in the Civil Rights Division. Read J. Christian Adams's "Injustice: Exposing the Radical Agenda of the Obama Justice Department" and you'll have a better idea of what Sessions is up against. Hopefully he'll succeed in cleaning the Augean Stables.
“Its a gentle way of saying he has lost all control”
I think he was referring to the discipline of security regarding information gathered during investigations.
Classified Material Control or OPSEC are similar caveats applied to different sources of military information.
