Sessions makes his move
American Thinker ^ | J R Dunn

Posted on 03/19/2018 4:48:12 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

Sessions is the quintessential Eagle Scout. He will follow the rules down to the last subclause and will not make his move until every "t" has been crossed and every "i" dotted.

We saw the first results of this approach last Friday – in dealing with Andrew McCabe, this century's prime example of a "cookie full of arsenic."

Sessions waited until the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility (which is run by Assistant Director Candice Will, who was appointed by Robert Mueller, of all people) recommended that McCabe be fired. He then had McCabe officially informed beforehand, following established procedure to the letter.

This comes under the rubric of "strategy," a concept unfortunately foreign to too many active conservatives. A large number of cons recognize only one course of action: a headlong charge against the closest target while howling at the top of their lungs. Not only do they dismiss any more subtle form of action, but they often attack those engaging in it of cowardice or corruption, or of being an "Alinskyite-Obamaist commie stooge" – despite the fact that their kamikaze runs usually end up heading over the nearest cliff.

So it was with Sessions, who has been routinely dismissed as "paid off," being "asleep under his desk," or as "part of the swamp."

Sessions took his time, did things according to the book, and dealt the swamp a good, stiff blow while leaving its denizens little recourse but to throw tantrums in the media, which they have been doing the weekend long.

I must have forgotten my sarcasm tag.LOL But you go ahead and think what you want;)

I don't require sarcasm tags. You are cynical. I get it. You have no hope after a lifetime of disappointment. I get it. I suggest you reignite the fire in your belly and get in the fight. Negative waves hurt the cause. This is a war of public opinion foremost. Politicians on the fence will not act in our favor unless they see public support. A groundswell. We have the power. It's really very simple.

p.s. I will think what I want, thankQ.

You are too soon in making that assessment. Give it a week or two.

I guess no one told Gowdy, Ryan, McConnell or Rubio that “we” are in control?

As you know, those are some of the compromised deep staters. With the possible exception of Gowdy. Ryan may be defeated, as he may not run for reelection, remains to be seen. If so, he is defeated like Nk and Saudi. McConnel is on deck and Rubio. Like I said. We are winning. Stay tuned.

Let’s see some other firings and some indictments.

Stay tuned. In the meantime, get on the Trump train. :)

Sorry, no thinking allowed. Only knee jerk reactionaries with the depth of potholes.

My tagline is for them.

So, just firing, not even indicting an obvious swamper,

Stand by. In the meantime, get on the Trump train.

Only a week or two?

The IG report won’t be out that soon.

You cut out a section of the totem pole, and every part above will come crashing down!

Look out for falling Deepstaters!

So far, McCabe gets a pass.

Stand by. In the meantime, get on the Trump train. Your President needs you.

Here's a tidbit for the Sessions Chicken Littles. Keep in mind this was before McCabe was fired.

An anon asks;

Mar 15 2018

Q team, trust Session still or nah? Why is Fox saying McCabe will skate?

...so far ...

Some folks ... as a habit ... maybe a feature of OCD stuff ... when they put puzzles together or take on a complex task, do a LOT of peripheral work--putting the puzzle's border together; dealing with some obvious things; setting things up for a somewhat emphatic, dramatic conclusion of the effort.

I don't think that's per se what's going on vis a vis POTUS and this massive effort. But I think it somewhat looks that way.

I think the behind the scenes set-up stuff is just absolutely necessary to minimize social chaos and turmoil.

It's kind of like taking a large blanket to say a cherry tree or some other fruit tree ... doing various prep stuff ... suspending the blanket under the tree and around the tree trunk ... getting awkward branches out of the way ...

... etc. ... then finally when things are ready--giving the trunk some resounding THUNKS and the fruit mostly falls cleanly in the blanket.

That appears to me to be a big part of the strategy going on. ... again ... out of wisdom and necessity.

Agreed. BTW, someone misses hearing from you for quite a while. Hopes you still have the number.
