Attorney General Jeff Sessions pushed back against President Donald Trump on Thursday, saying in a statement released by a spokesperson that the Department of Justice would not be "improperly influenced by political considerations" hours after Trump attacked him on television.

"I took control of the Department of Justice the day I was sworn in, which is why we have had unprecedented success at effectuating the President's agenda," Sessions said in the statement which was posted on Twitter by Justice Department spokesperson Sarah Isgur Flores.

“Actions? What actions? Where? When?”

He’s taken one significant action ....he recused himself. That is the root cause of the whole freaking mess we are in today. There would be no Mueller, Paul Manafort would be a free man, Russian meddling would be a non issue and many other pluses.The guy is a human wrecking ball.

effectuating

A failed attempt at trying to sound smart using a word that sounds like it might mean something but, in reality, means nothing at all.

An example of this occurrence might be when someone uses a word such as "effectuate".

Joe: Jeff, would you effectuate Bobby's browser history for me?

Jeff: Joe, stop effectuating you giant douche!

“The exact opposite is taking place at the DoJ. It is 100% politicized law fare”

That’s it. Not one Rat politician indicted so much as for filling out his 1040 wrong.

Rosenstein is running DoJ for the benefit of his buddies. Sessions is a spectator.

Recall that Sessions recused himself from anything to do with Russia. In what way does his recusal extend to trying to conjure a crime out of some sleaze pornogirl blackmailing a guy for 5 years? When does he get in front of that? It was the Southern District of New York that pushed that and it had nothing to do with whether Mike Cohen filled out his tax forms the way his accountant told him to.

“Sessions IS the “insurance” Strozk texted about.”

Yes, I believe that that’s true. I also believe that when Trump finally clears the decks on Mueller, Sessions better have his cast iron jockstrap in place, because Trump is like an elephant, he doesn’t forget people who’ve f*cked him.

He will be fired after November’s Red Wave, if no Red Wave it probably doesn’t matter.

***...Department of Justice would not be “improperly influenced by political considerations”***

Notice he does not say “and never was under his watch”

He’s pointing this directly at Trump and ignoring the malfeasance prior to now by and in favor of liberals/dems

What do they have on him?

Yet he has full confidence in Rod Rosenstein who signed off on the FISA application, knowing it was based on the phony dossier, and they didn’t inform the court of this.

“Jeff Sessions: ‘Actions of DOJ will not be improperly influenced by political considerations’ (tr)”

Then why is the useless dick not bringing Hillary before a grand jury? Oh? Political considerations?

It appears that they will not be “improperly influenced” by crimes either.

I want to know what dirt Rosenstein has on Sessions that Jeff is not doing his job like he should.

Why since nothing about Russia has been found in two years has Session not un-recused himself and take charge of his two departments, DOJ and FBI.

Why does Mueller have no narrow defined guidelines?

Why does the DOJ not give congressional committe’s with clearance what they asked for over a year ago? Congress has legal oversight of DOJ. Why is Bruce Ore still employed?

Why isn’t Sessions giving congress the Scope Memo, the Fisa warrants. Why isn’t the Flynn case closed so Trump can pardon Flynn.
