I thought Michael Cohen has already plead out.

The Cohen case has nothing to do with Russia.

Was referred to the SDNY office by Mueller since even he couldn’t defend it.

Why is Sessions not involved? He doesn’t have to recuse himself from this, and Rosenstein should not be in charge of it.

The President of the United States can't order anybody to do anything and make it stick, but an unelected bureaucrat/lawyer named Rosenstein can do as he wills.

Great country.

The Department of Justice has absolutely nothing to do with justice, and everything to do with politics.

Time to start over, from the top down.

Pure insanity for POTUS to seemingly have no control over the DOJ and having a totally worthless AG. The GOP is useless and gutless. The left is coming closer to their goals. They did not get a Clinton victory but very well may get a Trump defeat or at least taking a big hit to MAGA. This administration banking everything on Midterms and hoping Mueller fails is not reassuring.

Sessions knows all of this, knows how many laws were broken by the other side, knows there is indeed a witch hunt against our President and still he will not move. Has there ever been a more deceitful and corrupt person? Sessions is filthy.

Of course!

Our President cannot be allowed attorney client privilege!

He cannot be allowed an attorney, or a judge, or ANYONE for his defense.

It’s a proper handicap.

He’s win anyway.
