I don’t think anything will change. DOJ will continue to stonewall

Technically, if Trump does this, he isn't bypassing Sessions. Sessions is recused, already bypassed (and I think properly recused).

The problem children here are Rosenstein and Wray, who put the institutions above bedrock principle. And since Wray reports to Rosenstein, the buck stops at Rosenstein just before it gets to Trump.

Saw your title and popped over to Twitter to see if Trump had Tweeted. he has 53 million followers and 47 people following him???

I chose another person with 373K followers and they had almost 10K following. Twitter is messing with the president.

Trump says he will ORDER docs be given to Congress

...or what? Will he order the US Marshals to raid the DoJ...the military? I'm not being flippant. Those at State and Justice are dug in...and I'm sick and tired of hearing about the rank and file who want to see "justice" done. They are mythical.

Fight Fire with Fire.

Jeff Sessions has got to be one of the lamest AGs ever.

Trump can either wait for Congress to clear him in about ten years and allow the wait to consign him to destruction, or he can release the documents and behead the Mueller investigation before the election.

It should be obvious to anyone that the DOJ and Congress are not going to act decisively. Never. Ever.

Obama’s people controlling the DOJ will stall and destroy evidence.

Sounds like the entire DOJ needs a good housecleaning.

Sessions has been a huge disappointment.

Trump should fire Sessions on November 7 and appoint someone who will do the job.

Hindsight being 100%, its obvious that Sessions should never have been appointed AG. However, when it became blatantly clear that Sessions wasn’t the right man for the job (after about two weeks) and totally incapable of performing the duties of the office, Trump should have fired him then. Period.

Sessions’ recusal left Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein in charge of the bogus “Russia” probe, leaving him free to appoint Robert Mueller as special counsel despite the fact that no crime by the Trump campaign had been alleged and no intelligence pointed to Russian collusion.

They left out something that ALWAYS puzzled me.

BEFORE Rosenstein hired Mueller, he sent a letter to the President recommending the FBI Director, James Comey, be fired.

So Trump fires him.

THEN, the media says it is proof of collusion to fire Comey, so Rosenstein appoints Mueller as special counsel to investigate "this" and other matters.

So that right there is why there should NEVER have been a special counsel, let alone Bob Mueller, James Comey's BFF.

Anyway, if Rosenstein REFUSES to provide the documents to Congress Trump orders him to, then he WILL be fired, and Trump will have a non-obstruction of justice reason to do so.

Trump is right. Sessions never took charge of the DOJ. Rosenstein is Attorney General.

Trump is prepared to bypass Sessions and order the DoJ to comply with all congressional requests for documents.

Good, he said this during his FOX interviews and he said he would do it at an "appropriate" time :)

Those who still think Trump and Sessions have some 3D rope a dope
plan are delutional.
Sessions is an AWOL AG regarding the biggest scandals in American
History.
He should resign. Go back to Alabama and grow watermelons.

Great, One way to deal with gutless, do nothing and incompetent Sessions without going through the political upheaval of replacing him is for Trump to start acting like a shadow AG - after all constitutionally he has the power over all the departments.

The documents Trump will order declassified are known-knowns, and he will ensure they see the light of day. Trump has the proof, the evidence, and all legitimate legal team working night and day to put together the entire spectrum of holding people accountable by using those declassified documents to prosecute. I am sure they have preplanned and troubleshoot the entire process per individual arrest warrant, the charges in place, all possible explanations, and the proof to bring charges and convict. TRUMP is not playing with either Hillary or Barry.
