What if Jeff Sessions is not asleep, but instead playing possum?
American Thinker ^ | December 15, 2017 | Brian C. Joondeph

Conventional wisdom is that Attorney General Jeff Sessions is asleep at the wheel – from recusing himself unnecessarily from the Trump-Russia collusion investigation to doing nothing about the politicization and weaponization of the Department of Justice. He also gave free rein to his deputy A.G., Rod Rosenstein, who is in turn allowing Special Counsel Robert Mueller unlimited time, money, and jurisdiction to investigate President Trump's entire life.

“it appears Chris Wray is employing a similar approach.....let Mueller & gang burn themselves......”

When there’s no controlling legal authority and no repercussions, exactly how would Mueller and gang burn themselves?

Enough already!

We should be through defending this guy.
Jeff Sessions is either suffering from early stage dementia
or he is a thoroughly compromised swamp creature himself.

The DOJ’s credibility is at stake and highly dependent upon the DOJ’s IOG report on its investigation into how the FBI handled the Clinton e-mail investigation which is due “early next year. It, of course, will also depend on how the DOJ acts upon the reports and its recommendations. The IOG’s investigation into this matter was announced in January, 2017, almost a year ago.

The Inspector General is Michael E. Horowitz (J.D. from Harvard Law School) who began his stint in 2012, so I presume he was an appointee of the Obama Administration. So I have a hard time getting enthusiastic. Nevertheless, all the DOJ/FBI leaders who have testified in public Congressional hearings, although not providing any significant information, have tried to reassure Congress that the IOG’s investigation will be complete and will include recommendations regarding who, if anyone, should be prosecuted, and for what reasons.

To me, “early next year” is January 2018, maybe February if you really want to stretch it...just around the corner in old folks’ time...

Horowitz is just another Obama-appointed-deep-state-zombie.

If you are truly expecting an Obama appointed deep stater to go after the deep state, then I seriously doubt your sanity.

“Guys who write this stuff....like the suggestion thag Trump is playing 3d chess....are naive idiots. They are helping bring Trump down by ignoring a clear and present danger.”

You have it exactly right. It astounds me the number of people that can’t see what is plainly in front of their own eyes. This is an overt coup and sessions is an integral part of it.

“Sessions is scum. He is not asleep...he is actively cooperating to bring down Trump.”

And you know this how?

And if true, why does Trump tolerate it?

What does his name have to do with it?

His name has nothing to do with it other than the fact that everybody on this thread (and other threads) refer to the IG's report!

This made me ask, who is the DOJ IG? Is it a man or a woman? Who appointed him?

Now I know. Now you know. Now everyone on this thread knows. Got it?

And exactly what were you implying with your question?

The only thing implied in my reply to you is that you don't know what's going on and you should try harder to keep up.

“I had a possum in my garage. I tried to push him out with a broom and he hissed and threatened me. I hit him and he played possum. So, I got my 22 and put the muzzle on his head and blew his brains out.”

How brave of you.

“The DOJ’s credibility is at stake”

lolol...The DOJ’s credibility went out the window with Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch. What little it had left.

The whole of the fed govt has no credibility. It is irreparably corrupt.

I can see what is going on....just like when I see a car coming down the street so I don’t step in thd crosswalk.

Read. Watch. It is Obvious what is going on.

Trump has to tolerate it. Congress is terribly corrupt, and the Clintons, along with all the other deep staters, have their FBI files. They cannot afford to have their corruption revealed to the american people, so tbey have threatened Trump with impeachment if he fires Mueller and/or Sessions.

And did you know who the IG is and who appointed him?

I'd love to believe that is true, but he's a long time swamp dweller and it goes against his nature. I'm afraid he was looking for a "position", not a job, to "crown" his career of do-nothing "public service".

“What does his name have to do with it?”


Thank you for posting that - those were literally the first words that came to my mind about JohnG45’s post. Those words clearly convey JohnG45’s attitude, hatefulness and ignorance.

FWIW, my real name has a similar ethnic background to that of Horowitz. I voted for Reagan twice, against Obama twice, and enthusiastically for Trump. Oh, and I’m armed. WTF does one particular person’s ethnic or religious background have to do with their political views?

JohnG45 is a moron.

When Sessions essentially endorsed DJones as his successor, what little regard I had for him vanished.

The IG is a corrupt obola stooge.

Judicial Watch and the 3 or 4 outspoken congressmen on the committees is all we have. Again, we have no controlling legal authority that has not been corrupted and politicized by the left.
