"Pretty close to a hit piece.

Not "close"...A dead center bullseye attempt to justify treason among the DOJ rank & file...

FTA:

Alex Whiting, faculty co-director of the Criminal Justice Policy Program at Harvard Law School, said it appears Sessions is resurrecting the tough on crime policies last seen during the George W. Bush administration.

They just can't stop themselves with the "Bush..." BS.

Yes, apparently mass incarceration of criminals doesn’t reduce crime. Yet the *expert* quoted didn’t offer up an alternative. My guess is art therapy.

Midnight basketball?

(although, if you compare the demographics of the prison population and of 'Midnight Basketball' enthusiasts, there is a temptation to conclude that Midnight Basketball CAUSES crime...)

Has Andrew McCabe been fired yet? And if not, why not?

Comey has a set term, I believe six years.

Deputy Director appointed by Director (Comey). McCabe appointed February 2016.

He ascends to Director if Comey leaves. Don’t know how they (Executive) will work this twofer, but these guys hold the central position in all Federal investigations & control the information. Evidently, it is some sort of landmine for the Administration (Sessions & Trump).

Trump has been vague about Comey (”everyone deserves a chance”) and silent about McCabe.

Someone more knowledgeable about FBI might know more.

Have no idea where INFO Wars is right or left, they are saying unofficially 1,500. https://www.infowars.com/unreported-1500-pedophile-arrests-have-been-made-nationally-since-trump-took-office/

I don’t know if it counts the illegals President Trump has rounded up, most violent criminals.
