Sessions is avoiding his duty for silly and dubious reasons. Because he spoke to the Russian Ambassador in his Senate office? He recused himself over that? Please.

And there shouldn't even be an investigation against Trump, but there is that Special Counsel looking for crimes that are not there. It's a big mistake that was set in motion by Jeff Sessions.

We have no idea as to what investigations are underway in the FBI or DOJ except that the Trump campaign has been under investigation since July 2016.

It could be Kabuki theater that Hillary is not being investigated...I doubt it. We all know it should happen, and Sessions knows better.

That's not the reason he recused himself. He recused himself from any investigation into the Trump campaign because he was an advisor and at times a participant in the campaign. He was part of the campaign.

No because the DOJ Ethics office recommended he do so. Did you forget that there was an ongoing FBI investigation that began in July 2016? Sessions campaigned with Trump. The rationale is that even the appearance of an impropriety is grounds to recuse one's self. Even Giuliani said, "Sessions "made the right decision under the rules of the Justice Department" in recusing himself from the investigation, Giuliani told CNN on Monday after landing at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.

And there shouldn't even be an investigation against Trump, but there is that Special Counsel looking for crimes that are not there. It's a big mistake that was set in motion by Jeff Sessions.

This assumes that Sessions would not have appointed a Special Counsel after the Comey firing by Trump and the subsequent leaks that suggested a possible obstruction of justice by the President. Sessions and Rosenstein both recommended in writing the firing of Comey.

It could be Kabuki theater that Hillary is not being investigated...I doubt it. We all know it should happen, and Sessions knows better.

We wouldn't know if Hillary was being investigated or not assuming DOJ and the FBI adhere to existing policy.
