On the eve of the release of a potentially explosive new report, Attorney General Jeff Sessions defended the termination of the FBI’s top two former executives and warned that the forthcoming report on the FBI's handling of the Hillary Clinton probe could result in more people being fired.

“Comey made a big mistake in reopening the Clinton probe”
According to this DS stooge that’s what Comey’s insubordination was? That’s what got him fired? This contemptible traitor has guaranteed a whitewash of any real crimes that we all knew took place. Until Sessions is sacked and his henchmen cleared out the DS coup continues.

He is part of the swamp, he needs to go.

The longer Sessions is in position, the more damage he will do.

If Sessions fires himself, I would call him a patriot and a true Trump supporter.

His actions since anointed AG has exposed him as a plant of the GOPe.

"Comey made a big mistake in reopening the Clinton probe."

That's simply not the case at all. If you read Rod Rosenstein's memorandum where he outlined the reasons for Comey's termination, he says the problem with "reopening the Clinton probe" was the way Comey made a public spectacle of it rather than keeping it confidential within the DOJ until the investigation was complete.

Maybe it’s because many people are incapable of seeing more than one step ahead.

So, Sessions speaks up & says that the bad man Comey undercut Hillary....that’s what he takes out of the report as egregious?

Very true. It’s disturbing to see so many seemingly intelligent people who think a legal process should unfold like a professional wrestling match.

It’s now show time for the A.G.

I remember him telling Congress he would let the IG complete his investigation and then act.

If he truely meant it, he’ll need to strap on some spurs and get to it.

Either something heavy is coming down or Sessions is trying to redeem himself. Sessions and Rosenweasel will both be gone in due time.

Sessions:

So somebody may show up in the report who needs to be terminated?

McGoo makes no similar remark about possible criminal referrals.

Looks like a whitewash to me.

More people being fired? That’s it? How starting the PROSECUTE and then perhaps EXECUTE some of these SOBs? Sessions it is your job, start doing it.

It’s far too late. Sessions could show up in DC driving a prison bus and wearing a Superhero costume, quickly round up all of the corrupt politicians, FBI, CIA and, and, and—but I still wouldn’t be impressed. Ok, I might be impressed if he got them all into a single bus. He could haul them off to prison and personally lock then into their cells, and I still wouldn’t trust him.

Sessions has made himself into a joke.

I believe there is so much going on on our side than we know. For example, the Senate Intelligence Director has been outed as s leaker with charges pending along with the New York Times reporter. Who’s pursuing that? Our side and they’re fairly quiet about it.

Plus the White House created stories to out more leakers according to Town Hall.com. I expect the Sarah Sanders story is also being used to out WH leakers.

So funny that Mueller goofed and outed his sources (Russian investigation) today in an unredacted document.

The point is the IG investigation was initiated and the main fault Sessions has with Comey was not for the FBI cover up of Clinton felonies but for Comey jeopardizing Clinton’s chances by announcing the reopening of the case. There will not be a whitewash of how the FBI unfairly cost Hillary the election.

Fired? Like by a firing squad? I could get behind that.
