Jeff Sessions on Nunes memo: "No department is perfect"
AXIOS ^ | Feb, 02, 2018 | A.B. Brown Jr

Posted on 02/02/2018 12:05:55 PM PST by VideoDoctor

Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued a statement Friday following the release of the controversial Nunes memo alleging FISA abuse by the FBI and Department of Justice. I have great confidence in the men and women of this Department. But no Department is perfect.

Full statement:
“Congress had made inquiries concerning an issue of great importance for the country and concerns have been raised about the Department’s performance. I have great confidence in the men and women of this Department. But no Department is perfect.

Accordingly, I will forward to appropriate DOJ components all information I receive from Congress regarding this. I am determined that we will fully and fairly ascertain the truth.

We work for the American people and are accountable to them and those they have elected. We will meet that responsibility.”

These are not his old friends. He was in the Senate for 20 years and an Attorney in Alabama for about 15 years.

Out of context, the statement sounds frivolous. It is not.

Perhaps a ruse? I’m not sure 100% either way.

Trump is a showman, game player. His use of Sessions might be the mastery of tactical political battle that we talk about for a hundred years. I suspect this the case.

There are some folks out there, that we think are bad guys, that actually are good guys. Double agents in this debacle and attempted coup.

“I have great confidence in the men and women of this Department.”

So, is he a liar or a moron?

If this results in a few demotions and early retirements, why wouldn’t those with strong political beliefs abuse our surveillance capabilities in the future? They now have a playbook on how to get away with surveillance of a presidential campaign.

Misuse or misapplication of extra-constitutional authority must be met with the strongest possible constitutional punishment. And intent cannot matter - that’s too easy a cover for those who want to abuse the capabilities. Those who claim to be strong proponents of FISA should be the first to demand prison even for poor decisions in its usage.

I’d be willing to bet they don’t have anything on him. He’s a willing and enthusiastic participant. Sure, he had some good sound bytes, back in the day, when what he said and argued about, didn’t/woulnd’t matter. Like most of the people in Congress. But, now that he has a chance to make a difference and support and stand up for the PEOPLE, not the system, he’ll recuse himself to his office and not take any calls.

And the downhill slide continues and picks up steam.

Sessions says he has full confidence in Rosenstein.

Even a mangled RAT can see Rosenstein is a criminal. HE SIGNED OFF ON FRAUDULENT FISA REQUESTS!

Either the FBI has some serious BLACKMAIL MATERIAL ON SESSIONS, or he is A DEEP STATE OPERATIVE RUNNING COVER FOR HIS CREW.

Trump needs to DUMP SESSIONS.

Rosenstein first.
He’s named in the memo as knowing the Fisa warrant was partisan driven.

There are Freepers that STILL believe:

1. Sessions is working hard for Trump and arrests are coming soon
2. Mueller is working hard for Trump and indictments against Deep State are coming soon

SMH....

There must be a mathematical formula to explain Session traitorous behavior. Example: 1000 child porn photos = Sessions praising Rosenstein the day of the Memo.

Trump needs a come to Jesus meeting with Sessions and Wray and Kelly. Wray needs to either clean house or leave.

Exactly, as you and I and everyone else has noticed, the momentum is picking up fast. Like a masterfully played hand of cards, here they come, aces... drop,....drop....drop. Game over...
