In hindsight, the most important thing said this year came on Jan. 3. Chuck Schumer, leader of Senate Democrats, warned President-elect Trump he would pay a price for disputing intelligence officials’ findings of Russian meddling.
“Let me tell you: You take on the intelligence community — they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer declared.
Schumer was right about a vendetta, but wrong about timing. It’s now clear that intelligence officials already had started “getting back” at the next commander in chief.
They started in the summer of 2016.
In early August, Mike Morell, who was acting head of the CIA under Barack Obama, broke with agency tradition by entering the political fray to endorse Hillary Clinton.
He praised her as “highly qualified” and said Trump was “not only unqualified for the job, but he may well pose a threat to our national security.”

A process crime that would have never been charged had their
not been Mulehead’s Special Council.
No Sessions recusal = no Mulehead Special Council.
What part of that do u not understand?
What work? You cannot prove the existence of something for which there is no evidence.
““Let me tell you: You take on the intelligence community — they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer declared”
OK Schmuckie I’ll play... if what you say is true, then how did Obama get away with
That BS foreign policy of his? Seems to me that you are acknowledgin the existence of the Deep State.
Is it possible Sessions is on an hourly wage, and he simply punches in on the time clock just before speaking publically and then punches out when his comments are finished?
Congressional committees need to stop threatening to hold someone in contempt. Every person in America knows that is a meaningless action.
See my posts 47 and 50.
That’s not quiet at all.
So it isn’t.
Tick-tock!
Set decoder rings to stune!
All will be revealed!
;^)
If Sessions believes that the FBI having an “insurance policy,” against a potential Trump presidency has an “innocent explanation,” then he’s not working for us behind the scenes. That is a damning statement, and anyone who thinks it’s innocent is either senile or part of the swamp.
“What proportion of Sessions’ work is known to the public, compared to what he does that’s unknown?”
‘You tell us.’

Goodwin also complete ignores the 4th Amendment violations that DeepState is using to put forth a criminal case.
I scanned the first dozen or so Freeper comments on this article. All of them are focused on lesser stuff and distracted from the main issue. The "lesser stuff" in any other context would be very worthy of investigation, but in this instance, the "lesser stuff" is a distraction.
Huh?
That reply is nonsensical, and far-fetched.
I'm not even sure you were trying to make a point, or whether you're just stringing bits of fantasy together to sound profound.
Bottom line - you're investing blind faith and trust in Sessions, when he's given you no reason to do so, since the day he was confirmed.
Coming up on a full year of ineffective “Sessions needs to” calls.
That a special counsel was named, that Mueller was named it, that he was able to bring in only totally partisan hacks, etc., should never have happened.
This is the essential basis of the “deep state”.
We must rid ourselves of the entirety of the Patriot Act to have any chance of being rid of the deep state, and the use of the enforcement organs of government for political gain.
There is no other way.
I don't know if we need to rip out the Patriot Act in its entirety, but you have correctly identified one of the major problems ... that's more than most people.
Your premise that we should know about everything the attorney general does, as he’s doing it, is unsustainable.
That’s all I meant.
What you state is not true, if there’s more going on that we don’t know about.
The FBI has been refusing to release documents and stonewalling requests for documents asked for by Congressional committees re: the criminal and corrupt activity that occurred when Obama was in office. These are the very same Congressional committees that oversee the DOJ and the FBI.
AG Sessions is head of the DOJ. The Director of the FBI reports to AG Sessions.
Sessions, it would seem to me, could order the Director of the FBI to provide said documents to Congress. Apparently, he has not, to date, done so.
Why?

Ping for later.
But the fact is either we have respect for the law (Sessions and Trump) or we have a banana republic. If there is someone to prosecute it should be done properly (and quietly). I would note that Hillary's underlings were all given immunity. Prosecuting her for gross negligence in handling classified would have been hard even without that.
