Jeff Sessions said his future as attorney general might be tied to Rod Rosenstein's fate: Report

Attorney General Jeff Sessions informed the White House that he may resign from his post in the event that President Trump fires Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, according to a new report.

Sessions notified White House counsel Don McGahn of this during a phone call last weekend, sources told the Washington Post.

During the phone call, Sessions sought information about a meeting between Trump and Rosenstein and was relieved to hear that the meeting was primarily pleasant, and mentioned that he would have to weigh resigning if Trump fired Rosenstein, a person familiar with the call told the Post.

So the Washington Post and now the Washington Examiner is reporting this.

I dismissed the story when I saw it from the Washington Post, but now with this one too?

I have a simple question: WHY?

Why hasn’t Jeff Sessions fired Rod Rosenstein? And why would he threatened to resign if he’s fired?

But there’s a part of me that sees this as another coordinated effort by the media to try and divide Trump’s cabinet.

It just doesn’t make sense anyway you look at it.

Sleepy Sessions still has not indicted Hitlery. There is NO excuse for not doing so.


Doesn't want to become a victim of Arkancide. He's not stupid.

McConnell isn’t allowing recesses. Confirmation of someone on Trump’s side seems dim. Who is #3?

It would not bother me to see them both gone before tomorrows breakfast, BUT this article reads like FAKE NEWS.

I keep reading these Session threads to find out in what dimension he’s making his chess moves.

Do the Sessions people think the Picture of Sessions and Rosenstein sipping wine together is fake?

You are what your record says you are.

Barack Obama is proud of Sessions last year.

I’ll gladly swing over to your side as soon as Sessions brings charges against any high-ranking democrat. Until then I’ll get a little grin on my face every time I read your comments in sycophantic support of Swampssions when other FReepers have fun at his expense.

Respect is earned. Sessions as AG hasn’t yet earned it in the eyes of many FReepers.

Oh, and maybe I’m a bit jealous because I wish I could recuse myself from my duties and still collect a six-figure income with a platinum benefits package.

Two birds with one stone.

That’s a hint to Trump.

That not-so-subtle threat makes one wonder who Sessions is really working for.

Does the Washington Post have anything new, such as naming these alleged sources? Or is it a carbon copy of this story?

BTW, this could be true, but I tend to agree with you, to me Sessions is an enigma. I told people early on, for all I know Sessions could be a complete fraud. Regarding Sessions, some of these events like this one, do not seem to make a lot of sense. But I can guarantee you, the Sessions ‘issue’ won’t go on forever. Whatever he’s done/is doing, will be publicly known at some point in the future. One way or the other.

FOX reporting the source as Washington Post, on Sleepy Sessions’s threat to resign. WaPo always seems to have a mole in the JD.

Who, pray tell, would miss him, for crying out loud? Heck, it’s a gift! No Trump believers support Rod Rosenstein. Why would Jeff Sessions want to die on that hill?

Unnamed sources again

So much clap trap and drivel

Doesn’t matter how often it gets posted

Yep, but this could be true. Then again, it could be cow flop. After all the MSM is the communications division for deep state.

“If I’m not mistaken, Sessions said he “might” leave if Rosenstein is fired.”

I’d say that’s a threat, on which should be taken up by the President!
