With all the low hanging fruit, this guy had to find a 50 foot ladder to obtain a sour non-delectable bobble on the top of the tree not one single citizen was asking to have addressed.

Jeff! W T H ?

For the World to SEE Mr. 1999.


He stood up to the bully, and has him at heel with the help of his deep state buddies.

So you are bypassing the media middlemen, and getting your news direct from the ‘progressives’ now? How left wing of you.

I know of one individual who seems to just ignore the courts attempting to serve notice and eventually they go away without her paying a dime. Her method seems to be to just ignore all of the notices and file motions for dismissal monthly until they just give in. You hear on the news about an army of process servers chasing down that guy from the Daily Stormer but that is far from how they handle cases of people owing the courts money.

That is his greatest accomplishment of his tenure. Name something even half as significant. His allegiance is clearly to the corrupt DOJ, by refusing any special counsel to investigate them, while protecting the special counsel investigating the President. That is what he is currently known for, and what his legacy will be, hands down, especially by the President's true supporters.

Before Trump came along, it was the case that the only way you could get around uniparty news was to go to sources all the way up and down the ideological spectrum. It isn’t a bad practice, and it makes it easier to thwart the arguments of the lefties you may run into.

You seem to be rambling.

Taking down the FBI is no small task. I’m sure you believe Mr. Sessions has nothing to do with it but that is a good thing.

Your approval of how it is done is not required.

Sessions is recused on the swamp investigations such as the Clinton emails, the dossier, the FSA warrant, unmasking, Uranium One...etc. Sessions has left in charge on those matters, swamp rat Rod Rosensstein.

He was ordered to recuse. He did.

Sessions wasn't ordered to recuse.

You will not see Mr. Sessions on daytime TV looking for your approval.

Actually Sessions works for the citizens of this country and he answers to the president. Your comment sounds like something arrogant Peter P. Strzok would say to So. Virginia's Walmart shoppers. "I don't need your stinkin' approval".

Of course he works for us.

He isn’t going on TV to tell the commie left what he is doing.

Virginia Walmart Huh?

Go buy yourself something from there, I don’t sell.

I'm eagerly awaiting evidence that Jeff Sessions is more interested in cleaning up the FBI than he is in protecting it from even being criticized, much less ever being actually reformed. But so far, all I've seen is Sessions get in shouting matches with Republican Congressmen who want an outside special prosecutor to investigate the DOJ, since it clearly can't be trusted to investigate itself.

That is the purpose of the special counsel law, to appoint someone to investigate a party where conflicts of interest might otherwise exist. Yet Sessions' DOJ approved a conflict of interest waiver when they appointed Mueller's special counsel to investigate the President.

It's an obvious double standard that you're quite comfortable with. And based on your attempted smear of Trump based on his Holder comment, one you might even be enjoying.

Actually Sessions has served public notice what he isn't doing. Sessions went before Congress, and under oath, under penalty of perjury, he recused on almost all potential swamp investigations.

Also, it is no accident how often you will find an article on the front page of MSM only to do some checking to find that it was swiped from CommonDreams.

On the plus side, Sessions is channeling the spirit of the season. The wrong spirit, that is - but I digress.
