I’m sick of the Sessions bashing trolls here.

So am I.

Some people evidently believe that Sessions needs to be briefing the nation on all the investigations his department is pursuing with the end result being no convictions are obtained and all the culprits walk free.

I'm willing to be patient and allow the investigations to run their course and produce the iron-clad indictments we need to get these bums convicted.

Besides, if Sessions was not getting the job done, President Trump would have replaced him long ago.

People who feel that Sessions is "sleeping on the job" are basically saying that Trump is incompetent and being played for a fool. To have no faith in Sessions is to have no faith in Trump.

How do you explain the fact that Trump has bashed and humiliated Sessions on several occasions?

Complete BS! grassely has already said that if Trump fires sessions, he will not alow another aj to be appointed. And mcconnel will not put the senate in recess so Trump can do a recess appointment. That leave rosenwiesel. sessions is a rat bastard traitor.

“To have no faith in Sessions is to have no faith in Trump.”

Exactly.

Mueller works for the DOJ only technically, in the same way a public auditor works for the CFO in a private corporation.

The CFO is responsible for sending out RFPs (request for proposal) and once the CPA firm is selected, the CFO is responsible for scheduling and hosting of the audit, serves as a liaison in providing office space and access to the ledgers. The CFO reviews the invoice and authorizes payment to the audit firm per terms of the contract.

Really, the selection of the auditor is made by the Board of Directors, via the finance committee or audit committee, comprised of board members. The auditors serve at the pleasure of the board and report to the board.

Some think that because the CFO or CEO technically hires and pays the public auditor and provides them with office space and other resources, that the auditor therefore works for the CEO or CFO and can influence their audit or fire them - nithing could be farther from the truth.

It is exactly the same with Mueller (the Auditor), Sessions (CFO), Trump (CEO), the board of directors (congress) and the finance and audit committees (congressional oversight committees).

Niether Trump, nor Sessions, nor anyone at DOJ had any choice of whether to hire a special prosecutor - congressional oversight committees were screaming at them 24/7 to do so - just as the board of directors requires an audit of operations - the CEO can’t refuse and certainly can’t fire the auditor.

Anyone who thinks Mueller’s witch hunt would not have happened if not for Jeff Sessions’ recusal is simply failing to remember or understand the pressure being put on the DOJ to set up an investigation - the only alternatives would have been worse.

Mueller’s witch hunt is a shameful display of Democrat and RINO deep state bureaucrats abusing the prerogative of congressional oversight in a brazen attempt to overturn the results of an election. It’s a shame Trump has to put up with it but he has little choice - this is the fight he asked for when he declared war on the deep state by promising to drain the swamp.

No one should be surprised that the swamp is fighting back.

It’s easy for Guiliano to say he should have been AG and if he had been then everything would be peachy - I like Rudy but that’s a crock.

The best thing Trump can do is what he’s doing - use his bully pulpit to brand the Mueller investigation as a witch hunt. Resist the the temptation to use his executive powers to force Mueller out - that’s a non starter -if he fires him that’s just what they need to brand him as obstructing the investigation - practically an admission of guilt. Don’t take the bait.

This is a branding showdown - my money is on Trump all day long.

Wake up and smell the coffee. Trump explained in his own words why backstabber Sessions still has a job:

Trump expressed his disappointment in the Justice Department during a Fox News interview in which he said Comey is “guilty of crimes” that could be uncovered “if we had a Justice Department that was doing their job.

When asked why he doesn’t push the department to do more, Trump say he’s staying out for now.

“Because of the fact that they have this witch hunt going on with people in the Justice Department that shouldn’t be there, they have a witch hunt against the president of the United States going on, I’ve taken the position, and I don’t have to take this position and maybe I’ll change, that I will not be involved with the Justice Department,” he said. “I will wait until this is over. It’s a total, it’s all lies and it’s a horrible thing that is going on, a horrible thing.”

Trump has repeatedly lashed out at Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who heads the department, for recusing himself from the Russia investigation. Trump has previously called on the department to target leakers, but no one has been prosecuted for leaks critical of the Trump administration.

“So very disappointed in my Justice Department,” Trump said. “Because of the fact it is going on, and I think you will understand this, I have decided I won’t be involved. I may change my mind at some point because what is going on is a disgrace. It is an absolute disgrace. By the way only collusion is with Democrats and Russians.”
