...specifically the abrupt decision by Attorney General Jeff Sessions to recuse himself from investigations into Russian meddling in the 2016 campaign. Sources said the president felt Sessions' recusal was unnecessary and only served to embolden Trump's political opponents.

Trump tweeted this morning that his residence and office at Trump Tower (where his wife and son also live) had been bugged through Obama's orders.

If true, this is perhaps the biggest political scandal in American history.

And Sessions recused himself unnecessarily on Friday regarding bogus charges about "meeting" with the Russian ambassador.

That was not a tactical blunder, it was a strategic disaster for the Trump White House.

I pray that God intervenes and brings Obama and his thugs to justice.

Sessions cannot oversee an investigation of something that involved himself. He was wire tapped, too.

SESSIONS JUST HANDED THE DEMS THE OPPORTUNITY TO LET THIS HANG AROUND FOREVER.

Trump is going to have to start throwing a lot of body and rabbit punches.

Which i’m sure he will.

WTF is wrong with Sessions?!!!

What do they have something on him too, to fold so easily?

It was a complete and utter disaster and unnecessary to boot.

If the ONLY thing you have, to combat this mess, is a belief that GOD is going to step in, you're in big trouble.

Yes, I believe in God; but he doesn't do much to stop horrible things; just look at WWI, WWII, etc. in the 20th century.

Before heading off to his so-called “winter White House” in Palm Beach, Florida, on Friday, President Donald Trump summoned some of his senior staff to the Oval Office and went “ballistic,” senior White House sources told ABC News.

Junk and fake news.

This only happened in the drugged out wet dreams the ABC liars.

“Some of his senior staff” is not really a valid news source.

I thought it was a big blunder, too, and I don’t think the Dems should have been allowed to force out Flynn, either. That emboldened them.

But Trump is responding strongly, and if it’s true that Obama ordered a FISA wiretap of his opponent in June (with what justification and before what judge, exactly?), got it approved, and tapped the phones of his opponent’s home....but even then, couldn’t get any of the pro-Obama security forces to say they had found anything, and yet continued to tap Trump’s phone...I’d say we have something a heck of a lot bigger and more real than Watergate.

This is serious abuse of power. Since when does a sitting President get to wiretap his opposing party’s candidate?

Something doesn’t smell right here. In light of all the leaks, how does a meeting with his staff get leaked?

If true, I’m at least glad to hear that Trump was as outraged over this as I was yesterday. However, he should have had a clearer understanding between his cabinet officials that you don’t dignify a false narrative by anonymous sources in a liberal rag with a press conference to make your administration look guilty.

Obviously, Jeff Sessions should’ve known better. And I don’t see how he survives this.
