Trump may be floating a plan to fire Jeff Sessions...

President Donald Trump has been formulating a plan to fire Attorney General Jeff Sessions, Vanity Fair reported on Wednesday. Sessions has been a target of Trump's ire since he recused himself from the FBI's Russia investigation last March, following reports that he was not forthcoming during his Senate confirmation hearing about his contacts with Russian officials during the 2016 campaign season. Sessions' recusal is a key point of frustration for Trump, who once reportedly asked why he couldn't order "my guys" at the "Trump Justice Department" to do what"weak" and McCabe, whom Trump described as "a Comey friend who McCabe was forced out of the FBI earlier this year amid an internal investigation into his handling of the Clinton email probe. On Wednesday, The New York Times reported that Sessions is weighing whether or not to fire McCabe over his alleged misconduct days before he's set to retire. Trump's tweets last summer came after he admitted, during an interview with The Times the previous week, that he would not have nominated Sessions to be attorney general if he had known Sessions would recuse himself from the Russia investigation. "Sessions should have never recused himself, and if he was going to recuse himself, he should have told me before he took the job, and I would have picked somebody else," Trump told the outlet. Sessions said this weekend that he believes he made the right decision by stepping aside from the DOJ's Russia investigation. The special counsel Robert Mueller is believed to be focusing on the time period last summer when Trump ramped up his attempts to pressure Sessions to carry out his suggestions. That inquiry makes up one thread of Mueller's investigation into whether Trump sought to obstruct justice when he fired FBI director James Comey last May.

>>but he is either being blackmailed or is paralyzed with fear over becoming a lightning rod for liberals and swamp types.

It isn’t really either one. He’s just like those who have been in Washington too long: he longs at least some love from the media.

That news about Jessie Liu should be noised about a little bigger than it has been...she was actually taunting the Podesta’s? Wow...I hope Trump has assigned extra protection. Assigning a lady lawyer to rout out pedophiles,,,talk about the instincts of a mother grizzly towards her cubs.....! We need to watch this person and give her more public support.(and maybe a higher office if she does a spectacular job!)

I found this on google’s cache...it maybe the twitter that caused her account to be closed from March 6:”Many people are in trouble and they know they are. Most know what’s coming and they’re being monitored. Tony Podesta was turned right around when he thought his passage out of the U.S. was secured.”

Qanon mentioned a couple of people being stopped at an airport, a while back... So I wonder......

Here is another Liu tweet from last week:
"After Assange publishes the next Wikileaks dump, everyone will wonder what took the FBI a year to act on the files NYPD recovered from Anthony Weiner's laptop."

On February 2, District of Columbia USA Jessie Liu tweeted:
"Mueller and his best pal Comey 'folded' over a year ago. In fact, they willingly volunteered to help Trump drain the swamp in order to save themselves."

On February 20, DC United States Attorney Jessie Liu - who leads the largest staff of prosecutors in the Department of Justice - tweeted the following:
"One day Podesta will have to explain why ANYONE would give a cahoot [sic] about whether or the 'the pool' on the 'walnut farm' would be 'heated' enough to 'swim' with Tammy Luzzatto's grandkids."

The terms which USA Liu placed in quotation marks have been identified by the FBI as pedophile code words, and appeared in Podeta emails exposed by Wikileaks.

Jack Boot Jeff needs to go. He won’t back off the Bundy’s in Nevada. His US Attorney there keeps trying to reinstate charges and resists the appeals of a wrongly convicted defendant.

You know back when the Penn State pedophile mess occurred, I noted that it was near the case of the Syracuse Orange coach who was also caught up in a similar case. I noted reports of similar cases but seemingly isolated from each other occurring...not just from the usual low income drunk sleezebag types but middle and upper income types being ensnared and arrested. I looked at my wife and said...”I think we have a very serious problem in this country and it has been carefully hidden and disguised, but I think the evil do’ers are starting to have trouble keeping it hidden. God loves little children and I don’t think he will withhold judgment much longer!”

I started doing some research and read of a former FBI official who started looking into things...FROM THE MIDDLE ‘80’S.(He has passed away now...some have questioned the details of that passing) I saw a documentary that was embargoed from being shown(I THINK IT WAS bbc) that gave some details of hidden occult oriented pedophile networks involving some of the highest folks in government who acted to keep things hushed up. There were details about those who spoke of multi-generations of “greek style” mentor older man/ younger boy sex relationships some of which were conducted under some modern notions of what the Spartans did to develop their males with sado-masochism implied.

I love my country but I am ashamed of what has been allowed to happen here and angry that the trust I have placed in my elected officials has been misused! For now the blood of innocents is also on my head as well because of what these evil people have done and I bitterly resent the governmental authorities for not putting a stop to it. We do not have a king that can be blamed for allowing such horror; we are a representative republic. We, all of us, are to blame for allowing it to happen. Not that all shall or should be held responsible, but rather we all have a responsibility in what ever fashion we are able to muster to see the evil stopped!

How do you know that Trump appointed all these people? He appointed the AG, but there is a qualifying ladder in place there, at Justice, which is limited to a pool of two or three top qualifiers, from which a new president can choose. Trump was initially concerned about that pool during the transition.

I don’t recall how that concern was ever addressed, or that he was able to do a thing about it.

Rosenstein remarked a couple of days ago that should Mueller investigate the Comey firing that he would recuse himself and said that so and so would then serve as acting DAG. Because they are next in line.

My point is that Trump doesn’t know all these people that step up to these positions. That selection job you speak of belongs to the AG. Thanks for the information on Horowitz.

"a. Business Insider is a bunch of Never Trumpers. *SPIT*"

Does anyone remember when they were independent and edgey?

Then Glenn Beck mentioned they were a great website and source of his info and man they tacked hard left.

Then, after the election of President Donald J. Trump ( it never gets old saying that :-)) they turned off their "comments" section to any and all articles.

Hmmm... so much for the free press and open discussion.

So much for the Head of BI being an Exeter Grad and utilizing the Harkness Method...

Pure bullshit. Sessions isn’t going anywhere. I don’t care how you meanie-old FReepers spin it.

You are right of course - he’s will remain in office until his vacation plan expires - right now he’s planning on jetting from an undisclosed holiday resort in a warm climate to another even more ritzy one.

“Turning off the comments section” pretty well describes all leftists from MSM rags, to Antifa, to the Chinese communists and the campus SJWs.
