Like I assume many of you, I've spend much of the past year boiling with anger towards Jeff Sessions. He first got caught like a deer in the headlights with respect to the biggest issue facing the Trump Presidency, somehow not managing to remember critical events. Then he recuses himself from the Russia investigation, leaving Trump to the wolves, i.e. Obama Deep State holdovers infesting the Department of Justice, intent on destroying his Presidency. As a literal soft coup attempt against a sitting President seems to be progressing in plain view underneath his command, he seems completely asleep at the wheel. And to top it all off, the one topic that has seemed to wake Sessions from his stupor, cracking down on legal marijuana, seems politically suicidal and anti-liberty, not to mention a complete waste of time and money.
But . . . I've come to rethink my view. Starting from the bottom, OK, I disagree on marijuana, but allowing states to defy federal law on marijuana undercuts the case to crack down on them defying federal law on immigration, which to me is a far more important issue. Yes, Sessions seems quiet in terms of cracking down on the Obama loyalists at the DOJ, but then, this is not something that can be done in a way that seems in the least way political. We don't need a grandstanding press whore like James Comey, we need someone to quietly take action and build the case. With the string of departures at DOJ/FBI, I'm starting to have faith that behind the scenes he is doing this. Recusing himself then, seems like less of a profile in cowardice and more of a shrewd move to place himself and his actions above reproach, even as he goes about pursuing his prey. If all of the above is true, the failure to remember critical events just becomes a pretext to get himself out of the spotlight on the issue.
I don't know for sure whether the reality is the former or the latter, or something in between, but as time passes, I'm becoming more and more convinced it's the latter.
” I’m starting to have faith that behind the scenes he is doing this.”
Not this shiite again.
Occams Razor:
Sessions is asleep at the wheel.
I’ve been annoyed by Jeff Sessions a few times but have chosen to keep my mouth shut........I think in the end it will prove the correct move.
Old Jeffery Recused himself not informing the President. Jeffery sent Carter Page And Popodoplous on the Trump campaign. Jeffery, on the morning of the memo, Praised Rosenstein. Jeffery has denied Congress information. Jeffery, when given more than enough evidence of Steele’s perjury has not even responded to Grassley and Graham’s criminal referal. ETC ETC
Jeff is not in session
Results.
Until such, if ever, to Hell with him.
Sessions could still be conducting a house-cleaning at at DOJ and FBI without having recused himself, and without allowing Rosenstein to set in motion a soft-coup by appointing Mueller. That whole part to this soap opera was completely unnecessary. In fact, its a distraction that is slowing the whole discovery process.
It was, and is, a huge risk to Trump, and I see no “3D Chess” being played here. Just stupidity or naiveté or possibly something more devious.
Stop this now. There is no defense of Sessions. He’s worse than useless and should be fired asap.
They called him the Silent Executioner in Alabama - quiet in his prosecution of KKK executioner Henry Hays, but ended up getting the death penalty (he has in fact been put to death) - and bankrupted the Alabama Klan to boot.
Did not know that. Thanks.
P.S. Wanted to inform people, if you use ‘DuckduckGo” because the are Non-Political, you might want to search Conservative sites using them, they have turned.
“Jeffery sent Carter Page And Popodoplous on the Trump campaign.
Do you have a source for that?”
It was a link on Conservative Treehouse. Sessions put the Forgein Policy board together for the Trump campaign, and he added Page and old Pop.
Im starting to have faith that behind the scenes he is doing this.
I will agree that it is an act faith. I have not seen a hint of anything. Nada, zippo, nothing.
I suppose people think Sessions should be out in the open, telegraphing his every move, giving these demons all his files, giving them all the discovery they want so they can continue to lie, cheat, steal and spin. It is so easy to armchair quarterback. Wait and see before condemning when we cant know what Attorney General Sessions knows. It takes time to build cases for indictment and imprisonment. This criminal cabal has had years and years to play fast and loose with OUR GOVERNMENT. Give him time to do what needs to be done. Holy crap Trump, Sessions, Flynn, Nunes, etc., have been nuked for over a year by the freaking leftists, media and rinos. Maybe we the base could offer some needed support. Now wonder good guys rarely run for office with this type of support.
Sessions has been stonewalling the requests for action by the Nunes committee for 6 months. That's a fact.
Sessions prosecuted the Klansmen, obtained the death sentence, and after being elected State Attorney General, handled the appeal, to ensure that the sentence was carried out.
Professional record states otherwise. You put poeople on trial in the court of public opinion and win. The ADD of the USA. I want hard shit instantly.
Weren’t you a neverTrump cruzbot idiot too?
