The f2f that came to mind is that there is a prosecutor team disguised as an IG

-- I'll also bet the Sessions bashing is about over. --

I don't think that is a good bet. There is much investment in that proposition, and it will never be completely abandoned.

I'm interested in the scope or breadth of Huber's view, compared with the scope of Horowitz. Horowitz is constrained two ways. One is that his function is to investigate and if necessary recommend clean-up actions involving approximately current DOJ employees. He was able to view McCabe, and Comey for a few months, but probably not Yates or Lynch.

Out of Horowitz view is action by Department of State, up to crooked Hillary herself, as well as Huma Abedin.

The other way Horowitz is constrained is by prosecutorial power. He has none. Teaming Horowitz with a prosecutor speeds up the legal process.

As big and involved as OIG Horowitz review and report may be, it will certainly create enough work for a few full time prosecutors. At the same time, it will not cover all the crimes.

And if this guy is an Obama appointee, I have a very difficult time believing he’s anything BUT a Democrat, and therefore have ZERO faith that justice is going to be served, and even less faith that Jeff Sessions -

“John William Huber is an American attorney who has served for the District of Utah since June 15, 2015. He was first nominated for the position by President Barack Obama in February 2015. Wikipedia”

He’s some okie from Utah doesn’t even have a staff in DC.

A COMPLETE JOKE MEANT TO FOOL IDIOTS.

Patience Grasshopper ...

It’s difficult - after 15 months of waiting and watching President Trump and everyone he ever knew relentlessly examined for everything they ever did and everyone they ever met in the endless search for wrong-doing, while OBVIOUS sedition and wrong-doing is excused by our fearless Attorney General with an endless stream of “oh, yeah! We’re looking into that real hard!” excuses.

-- And if this guy is an Obama appointee .. --

Huber is as much a Trump appointee as he is an Obama appointee, and he joined the US Attorney's office half way through the first term of GWB's presidency.

If confirmed, John W. Huber of Utah will serve as the United States Attorney for the District of Utah. Since June 2015, John W. Huber has served as the United States Attorney for the District of Utah. After serving the District of Utah for nearly two years as a Presidential appointee, Attorney General Jefferson B. Sessions appointed Mr. Huber to continue his service in March 2017. Prior to being named United States Attorney, Mr. Huber served as an Assistant United States Attorney for thirteen years. Mr. Huber began his prosecutorial career in the Weber County (Utah) Attorney's Office, and later served as the Chief Prosecutor for West Valley City, Utah, before joining the ranks of Federal prosecutors in the United States Attorney's Office in 2002. Mr. Huber graduated with honors from the University of Utah in 1989, and later received his J.D. from the University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law in 1995.

With Sessions, the good things are always “going to happen,” but they seldom do.

> “Absorbing (that) the DOJ has a long-standing criminal investigation will likely create anxiety for those committed to an irrational intolerance of Attorney General Jeff Sessions; but”

Sundance strikes out here. He doesn’t get it.

“likely create anxiety for those committed to an irrational intolerance”

No, it’s not an “irrational intolerance” for a number of reasons.

Sundance, identified as Mark Bradman of Florida, has done some excellent work on a number of issues but veers off track here in criticizing Grassley, Goodlatte, and Gowdy fo representing an “irrational intolerance” of millions of patriotic Americans who have been appalled by the actions of Jeff Sessions especially his recusal which caused the Clinton deep state in the face of Robert Mueller to prosecute duly elected President Donald Trump in what has been exposed as a coup d’etat against an American as a Candidate, Nominee, President-Elect, and President, and spilling over to the President’s family and close confidants who have been mercilessly attacked based on specious charges irrelevant to this special prosecutor’s stated mission.

All of this travesty stems from Jeff Sessions acting to recuse himself when such a recusal was without foundation and in any event, should have been not a recusal but a polite refusal to take the job.

There are dozens of qualified persons who could have served the President as his Attorney General without conflict real or otherwise. Had Sessions stepped aside and let the job go to a more capable and suitable appointee, the Mueller debacle would not exist and the massive waste of time and resources would have been avoided.

Bradman resorts to criticizing the critics. He characterizes them as irrational. No, they are not.

Sessions’s critics, represented by Senator Grassley and House Representatives Goodlatte and Gowdy, brought heat to bear on Sessions to effectuate the appointment of prosecutors to back up the DOJ IG. It is the justified concern of these critics that brought Sessions to act.

Like a football quarterback who fumbles and causes interceptions, Sessions was booed by supporters of Donald Trump. Now that, perhaps, Sessions is moving the ball downfield, Trump supporters have ceased their booing and are contemplating whether cheers and applause are due.

Using an inside resource creates a faster timeline than use of a Special Counsel. Not sure how statutes of limitations stacks up in these cases, crimes are barely identified.

We laugh at the BS charge of "collusion," but generic "leaking" has a similar defect.

At any rate, any crimes perpetrated during and after Trump's campaign are pretty well in a charging safe space against statutes of limitations.

I’ll bet he’s already negotiated reduced sentences and possibly immunity for cooperation and testimony. I’ll also bet the Sessions bashing is about over.

They don't need immunity, they need jail...Comey gave immunity to all of Clinton's criminal sidekicks, and destroyed the evidence that could convict them...

Sessions is allowing Rosenstein and the rest of the Obama/Clinton regime to continue to attempt to take down Trump, knowing as we all do that Trump has beaten the fake charge...Sessions is taking orders from someone and it ain't Trump...

Interesting way to deliver hush money to McCabe. How is this guy worth $11 million bucks and manages to raise a several hundred thousand in a day or so?

“So, McCabre ($11m net worth) has conned douchenozzles into putting $208,000 into a “gofundme.” He won, right?”

I actually like the fact that this is happening, because either way the “douchenozzles,” as you call them are giving away their hard-earned money! All the better, if in the end, McCabre has every nickel confiscated, goes to prison, and his female douchenozzle wife has to make her own way in the world.

There seems to be confusion about what the IG has been investigating until now. He has been investigating FBI handling of the Hillary e-mail case.

An IG investigation into FISA court abuses was not undertaken until a few days ago, and that investigation was indeed in response to Sessions and Congress requests.

Here’s the text of that announcement:
