Sessions is still a good guy. Have met and talked with him a few times. He’s a family man with conservative values. Has he gone RINO or something for them to want to oust him (haven’t been following him the past few years)?
Yes, he’s gone native. At the end of his current term, he will have been in Congress for 18 years. Time for some new blood.
Sessions when he first came to Congress was a decent guy, but after spending a few years in Washington he changed, and it wasn’t for the better.
Do not confuse Pete Sessions with Jeff Sessions the conservative.
From a RedState article just a few days ago:
“Multiple people confirm to me that just a few hours ago Pete Sessions blew up about Ted Cruz and made sure everyone in the room knew he held Cruz in absolute contempt.”

Apparently, Sessions was playing along with Boehner and Cantor to keep a straight, defund-only vote off the House floor.
Ever since he supported Bonehead for Speaker he has been one of the insiders working with Bonehead to suppress conservatism.
He is the one who went off on Ted Cruz for exposing their plan to offer the fake defunding plan to fool conservatives.
