Sessions orders review of FBI over Florida shooting tip
The Hill ^ | 2/16/2018 | max greenwood

Posted on 02/16/2018 12:24:56 PM PST by bkopto

Attorney General Jeff Sessions is ordering a review into the FBI and Justice Department's procedures after the bureau revealed it had failed to act on a tip about the teenager accused of carrying out a deadly mass shooting in Florida.

“It is now clear that the warning signs were there and tips to the FBI were missed. We see the tragic consequences of those failures," Sessions said in a statement Friday.

“The FBI in conjunction with our state and local partners must act flawlessly to prevent all attacks. This is imperative, and we must do better."

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein will conduct the review, he said.

If Sessions wasn’t so OBSESSED with WEED, and Intractable Pain/Chronic pain patients Pain Meds in the “FAKE OPIOID CRISIS” telling them to suck it up and take a Aspirin he might have been more aware the FBI is in SHAMBLES!

Sessions is getting tough for sure. He’s unleashing his inner “Rambo” on the FBI. Stand back and get the hell out of his way, he is PISSED!!!!!!!!!

I say Good! just keep the scope of the investigation as broad as the Russia investigation, and see what happens when we shake the tree!

This useless elf should just go back to his tree to make cookies and sleep. Governor Rick Scott already said what needs to be done.

Wait, Rosenstein signed off on at least one of the faked FISA requests that led to the unlawful surveillance of the Trump campaign...yeah, yeah, but the indictments today say that no one knowingly cooperated with the Russians, so that lets Rosenstein and all the rest off from any blame in the phony Russian dossier leading to those faked FISA requests.....

Within the U.S. Justice Department, oversight of the FBI is actually one of the Deputy AG’s responsibilities.

There you go again. Throwing cold water on a good Sessions bashing

Hope you have your flame-proof skivvies on

Sessions has a few people on the hook for Treason. so he puts one in charge of a review of FBI actions and Policy. Sessions may very well be senile. Get rid of his sorry ass.

We cannot fire the people who f***ed the thing up so badly, so we’ll rewrite the manuals and hold meetings at a lavish resort with golf, gambling, hot tubs and steak and lobster.

FIXED!

The Russians made Cruz do it.

You must be right since Sessions has handed it over to Rosenstein. Sessions recused himself of anything Russian and he seems to be recusing himself from this investigation too. Rosenstein will find a way to connect it to Trump also. Clowns is all they are.

They need a seriously INDEPENDENT, outside review.

Deputy AG Rosenstein is effectively the “COO” of the Dept of Justice and the FBI is under his jurisdiction. This means that Sessions is tasking RR with reviewing his own team’s failings.

The clear need is for independent, outside views with (ideally) no personal stake.

(sigh)....It really IS going to take CW 2.0 to fix the mess, isn’t it?

TECHNICALLY, CW I. The original ‘War Between the States’ wasn’t fought to control\overthrow the ‘center of power’ (D.C.); but its own autonomous govt....Rev. War II I guess.

Back to topic: I know, Sleepy Sessions, let’s allow the FBI Internal Affairs give themselves the ‘once over’

Holy SHIT, if there’s anyone ‘tone deaf’, it’s Rip Van Sessions.

If Wray had a shred of honor he’d resign and commit sepuku.

But he doesn’t. So he won’t do either.
