Trump heightens attacks on Sessions: He's 'scared stiff and missing in action'
The Hill ^ | 08/11/18 | Tal Axelrod

President Trump ratcheted up his attacks on Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Saturday, tweeting that Sessions was "scared stiff" and "Missing in Action" in defending him amid special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into possible ties between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Trump slammed Christopher Steele, the former British intelligence officer at the center of the Trump dossier scandal, and the Department of Justice (DOJ) and once again slammed Mueller's investigation as a "witch hunt."

"The big story that the Fake News Media refuses to report is lowlife Christopher Steele’s many meetings with Deputy A.G. Bruce Ohr and his beautiful wife, Nelly. It was Fusion GPS that hired Steele to write the phony & discredited Dossier, paid for by Crooked Hillary & the DNC," Trump tweeted.

"Do you believe Nelly worked for Fusion and her husband STILL WORKS FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF 'JUSTICE.' I have never seen anything so Rigged in my life. Our A.G. is scared stiff and Missing in Action. It is all starting to be revealed - not pretty. IG Report soon? Witch Hunt!" he wrote.

Trump’s attack on Saturday was likely prompted by murmurings that the Republican chairman of the House Judiciary Committee is readying subpoenas for people connected to the controversial Steele dossier.

Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) is reportedly preparing subpoenas for DOJ official Bruce Ohr, his wife, Nellie Ohr, and Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson, sources told The Hill this week.

Bruce Ohr is facing scrutiny from Republicans for his contacts with Simpson and Steele during the presidential campaign, the news of which prompted Trump allies to demand a special counsel investigation into the DOJ and FBI in December.

Simpson hired Steele to help produce the dossier that made a series of salacious allegations about Trump's connections with Russia.

Nellie Ohr worked for Fusion GPS during the presidential campaign — a fact that Republicans have promoted as a possible link between the DOJ and the opposition research firm.

Trump has gone after Sessions for the Russia probe before, saying earlier this month that the attorney general should stop the investigation "right now."

"Attorney General Jeff Sessions should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now, before it continues to stain our country any further," Trump tweeted on Aug. 1.

Trump is also known to harbor hostility toward Sessions for recusing himself in the investigation.

“The Russian Witch Hunt Hoax continues, all because Jeff Sessions didn’t tell me he was going to recuse himself...I would have quickly picked someone else. So much time and money wasted, so many lives ruined...and Sessions knew better than most that there was No Collusion!” the president tweeted in June.

I don't pretend to know all the facts surrounding this Beltway intrigue, but I know Donald Trump well enough to say the following with absolute certainty:

There isn't a chance in hell that Donald J. Trump went through everything he's accomplished in the last 3+ years only to let himself be undermined by some slow-talking career politician from Alabama.

If anyone disagrees with me on this, I'd love to hear from you on this thread. LOL.

My prediction:

1) The Midterms go poorly for us, and we lose just enough seats in the House for the Democrats to take over.

2) The Democrats draw up and pass articles of Impeachment for Donald Trump having gone to Russia to pee on prostitutes.

3) AG Sessions finally breaks silence, calling the charges against Donald Trump “troubling and credible” and calling for the President to “step down to preserve the honor of the Presidency” and to “start healing the nation.”

This dickwad is as deep-state as deep-state gets.
..

Good grief, Laz, put the bottle down. Stop being a pessimist...open her eyes, we are kicking arse bigly.

Be patient. Unseen forces are at work. All will soon be revealed.

In the meantime, relax with a nice warm mug of Qvaltine!

Ahahahhaha. TRUST THE PLAN! Making your AG look like an incompetent fool, weak and worthless is all part of the Plan! This somehow puts the corrupt evil clinton obama deep state cabal in a false snse of security. Of course this only occurs in the minds of q nuts.

The_Mole == “J. Sessions”;
The_insurance_policy == The_Mole;
The dead man switch must have been built and then placed by the deep state and it seems J. Sessions is somehow the trigger.

You left out a step between predictions 1 & 2:

Mueller fabricates an obstruction charge against Trump which gives the Dems the ammo they need to impeach him.

I wouldn’t put any money on 1,2 and 3. The last statement, though, is undeniably true.

If Sessions is so terrible as AG, why can Trump not replace him? Hello? Or am I missing something about the office?

I’m not sure what FR needs more at this point - an IQ test or a lie detector test?

Ok, that did it! Im reporting you to Q. You will be sorry. Q will unleash his army of zombie name calling brain dead followers who will identify you as the troll, liberal, anti trump that you are!

Consider who Trump might be “negotiating” with. It’s not Sessions.

I agree with you. Trolling is what Bronco did all 8 years.

It is what we call payback. The left is unhinged and all these people playing dungeons and dragons on FR are quite amusing.

FR needs a ‘Q Caucus’ in the Religion Forum. Q is political Scientology.
—————-
Correctamundo! Either put it in the cult or religion section or get it off the site together. It falsely makes FR look like some type of nutwad site.

Personally, I also don’t like the idea of Trump insulting Sessions. My instincts would be to either fire the lazy SOB or quit whining and kick his ass around privately until he resigns. Same with Rosenstein.

It is almost beyond belief that the man who was so strong and principled in the Senate, has proven to be nothing but a feeble, pathetic cuckold as AG.

Was Sessions always a cuckold who did well to,hide it ? Or has someone got to him ?

It gives the fake media something to glob onto.

They have been trying to force the Presidents hand since day one. Not happening, meanwhile illegals are being rounded up daily.
