Looks good so far to me. He’s emphasizing that his job is to execute the law. Also, that the legislature is the place where the law is written or changed.

The demonRAT senators are going thru the motions, calling Sessions a racist, sexist, homophobe i.e. deplorable.

Sessions is home free.

Feinstein, (recalling Trump’s threat during the campaign to appoint a special prosecutor to look at Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton) said: “Mr. Chairman, that’s not what an attorney general does. … An attorney general does not investigate or prosecute at the direction of the president.”

Hey Feinstein. A special prosecutor is NOT the Attorney General ( so of course "that's not what an attorney general does "). Being a senator on the Judiciary Committee, you should know that.

Anyone want to bet that Finestein wrote the IRS to “look into” organizations applying for tax exempt status that were labeled as conservative?

Same here, followed closely by General James Mattis for SecDef. Those are the two 'MUST HAVES'!

The establishment politicians (Republican included) know that a Sessions confirmation will likely result in the swamp being completely drained and perhaps even some criminal charges against some of them.

That's why they are throwing everything they have at Sessions in order to try and derail his nomination, including the theatrics of the protesters brought in. So far, I think Sessions is doing a fantastic job.

Just one hour into the hearing, seven protesters were thrown out for disrupting the proceedings. “Stop these fascist pigs from getting into power!” one yelled. Two of them wore Klan robes while accusing Sessions of racism.

Liberals sure are a confused bunch. lol.

Just because they’re confused doesn’t mean they’re not stupid to the bone marrow!

Hopefully it means he will appoint an Independent Prosecutor.

Ted Cruz is brilliant!

This is one example of why he is disliked in the Senate, give me more of this.

Ted Cruz is running some serious defense right now! Well done Ted, glad to have you back. Hardcore liberal bashing currently in play!

And more thrown out after that

Described as code pink members.

They should just clear out that whole section, it should be easy to spot the ones that will disrupt.

But no, they are much too PC to do that, calling it free speech.

Of course the dems love them there because they yell out their innermost beliefs.
