It’s no secret that Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ days as Attorney General are numbered. The main questions are: (1) How will his exit be handled and (2) Who will replace him.
I have no insight as to the second question. One hears names like Matthew Whitaker (a former U.S. Attorney — and University of Iowa football player — who currently is Sessions’ chief of staff); Alex Azar, the Secretary of HHS (and not to confused with Alex Acosta); and Rep. John Ratcliffe (another former U.S. Attorney). However, I have no idea whether or to what degree these three (and others) are under consideration.
For me, a major concern is whether the new Attorney General will back leniency for drug felons legislation, something Sessions has vigorously opposed. I don’t know the answer to that question, either.
As for the first question, I believe the Sessions exit will be handled badly and without class. According to this report by the AP, some of Sessions’ influential conservative supporters are asking the White House to allow for a graceful exit. What does that mean?
A scenario advocated by at least one Sessions ally, former Cincinnati Mayor Ken Blackwell, would allow him to remain on the job until January and be permitted to resign on his own then rather than be fired immediately after the midterms. Blackwell said allies have made their case to administration officials that Sessions has successfully pushed the president’s core priorities, including on illegal immigration, and deserves some sort of recognition from the White House that “he has more than a passing grade.”...
How he has fallen. Here’s a thread when he was first named. Everyone thought we were winning

JW is still around due to Tom Finton.
Sessions has repeatedly allowed Obama’s DOJ and FBI to shun Congress, even under supboena.
The Congress has over-site duties that have been ignored by Session's own departments that he is in charge of!
He has allowed corruption to go unpunished, and I want an explanation for his behavior.
yesss....I like the idea of Joe de Genova
Totally Agree
Throw a party. I know I will.

In 2003 Klayman left Judicial Watch.
Trust oracular ambiguity and obfuscation. The smoke, not the mirror. The cast shadow, not the daylight.
Gowdy will get the call, for better or worse.
Just my opinion, and I could be wrong.
The LEAST important thing is leniency for drug offenders -
The MOST important things is SENDING SOME ACTUAL DEMOCRATS TO JAIL - Starting with HilLIARy.
Throw some of her peons in- someone will turn. She can’t have all of them killed
Ann Coulter
Ted Nugent
No wait... I want him for Sec. Defense (that oughtta keep ‘em guessing!)
Gowdy is OWNED by the SWAMP.
“Gowdy will get the call, for better or worse.”
That would be for worse. All bark, no bite. Weak. Jeanine Pirro or Mark Levin. Sekulow.
This is horse do do. Jeff hasn’t dropped the hammer yet. Remember his nick name .... the silent assasin.
It could be the first election in which the candidate with the most yard signs loses the race, but I am uncertain of the outcome.
Yes. Ann would do a great job, and have a blast at the same time as she watched the libs explode and implode.
