Moreover, Sessions was, in fact, using Justice Department lawyers with prosecutorial power in connections with potential FISA and related abuses. Since November, John Huber, the U.S. Attorney for Utah, has been on the case. Trump apparently didnt know this, but he should have. Sometimes its better to talk to the Attorney General than mindlessly to blast him on Twitter.
Huber was appointed by President Obama, but his name was submitted by Senators Hatch and Lee of Utah. Thus, his selection by Sessions seems like a shrewd move. As Obamas nominee it will be difficult for critics plausibly to paint him as anti-Democrat. But as the favorite of Hatch and Lee, Republicans should be confident that hes not in the Democrats pocket. Moreover, because Huber works out of Utah, its unlikely that hes connected in any way with D.C. insiders such as James Comey and Andrew McCabe.
What about the decision to use a U.S. attorney rather than appoint a special counsel? This decision also seems sound, and not just because I dont like special counsels. The combination of the IG and the USA should be able to accomplish as much as a special counsel would and accomplish it faster and with less fanfare.
The absence of fanfare is an advantage because it makes it more difficult for Democrats and their media partners to push the idea that anyone is being persecuted. A Justice Department investigation headed by two Obama appointees is harder to shoot at than a special counsel. And, of course, nothing prevents Sessions from appointing a special counsel if changed circumstances militate in favor of doing so.
In sum, Sessions has handled this matter well, Trumps foolish tweets notwithstanding.
>>My prediction is the axe coming for that southern-fried backstabbing rat bastard real soon.<<
I pray that you’re right because in my view you’ve accurately described a man who I view as a real snake.
THERE IT IS! THE GRANNY PIC!
He single-handily gave legitimacy to the ‘russian collusion’ hoax by his recusal. His hand picked DAG put the mueller coup into action. He’s done nothing to stop it...
How much more damage do you want to see from this diminutive beady-eyed piece of living sh!t?
Treason has a very specific definition
What you suggest wouldn’t even be in the same area code
Jeff Sessions has been AG for 1 year, 1 month, 23 days.
Realistically, how long will an investigation take? 2 years, 6 years, a lifetime? If a crime has been committed, can it be detected?
Enlighten us please.
Pic one is Huber visiting Rosenstein in DC.
Pic two is Rosenstein visiting Huber in Utah.
Thank you.
As a kid I thought Latin was a useless, dead language.
I’ve come around since and am happy to be schooled in Latin as necessary, or of interest.
Chris Christie and company promoted both Wray to head the FBI and Rosenstein to be DAG. If both are ‘black hats’ or ‘white hats’, Christie deserves a lot of the blame or credit.
Once again, you are TOTALLY on the mark.
Keep it up until someone becomes a proven performer...
Like I said
“juvenile”
“Hes done everything possible to insure that the Mueller investigation continues unabated and that no one will ever be prosecuted for Uranium 1. “
I agree.
>>He will go down in post American history as the biggest rat bastard traitor there ever was.<<
Careful now, I think you’re really beginning to upset Sessions’ cheerleader squad.
You’re being unfair to Granny.
CC was already heavily compromised as a true patriot...
Huber is a life long republican Mike Lee supported.
Never Trump Mike Lee? Interesting. You don’t remember Lee directly threatening POTUS over firing Sessions?
HA HA! April Fuels!
Too harsh? lolol ;)
