I wonder. Does Awan have anything on Hillary? If so, he needs to avoid the gym, beaches, parks, planes, streets at night, and his own apt.

If it’s only about Wasserman Schultz and some other pols, he’s likely safe. Hillary couldn’t care less.

Podesta...there’s a scary thought. I wouldn’t want to be Awan these days, that’s for sure.

He is exactly right about this and I agree. How about your boss publicly dress you down on Twitter for millions to see? If he is unhappy with him fire him! Not this passive aggressive pansy sh!t. I’m almost certain you’d be beside yourself had YOUR BOSS done this to you

Don’t be so naive. Trump is doing this for a purpose.

What I said about Sessions applies to Sessions. If he was as good a man as he claims to be, he would fix the mistake he made.


You're the one who is being naive - you're defending a 71-year old man acting like a 17 year old on social media. And Sessions doesn't even have a twitter account, so unless somebody tells him that Trump is whining on twitter about him, he wouldn't know it.

As a former military officer, and as an owner of a couple of small businesses, if I had a problem with somebody under me, I would never whine about them on social media, and I especially wouldn't whine about them by name.

If I have a problem with an somebody under me, we meet face-to-face, and I tell them where I think they made a mistake. They can defend their decision(s) if they believe they were in the right or were acting on information that maybe I didn't have, and then we talk about what needs to be done to resolve the issue.

Trump needs to stop whining on social media and talk to Sessions face-to-face. Publicly airing your grievances with employees on social medias is the sign of somebody who wants a bunch of people to agree with him. It's not the sign of somebody who wants to confront the issue head-on and either fire the employee, or give him a plan to get his act together.

Trump talks mean to someone.

Compared to Sessions, who recused himself from responsibility and hands over the prosecution of the presidency to lawyers who appeared to be bribed by Hillary.

Sessions could not take the heat and do his job. An honorable man would fix his own mistake.

"Trump talks mean to someone."

I almost envy you, if you think that's "mean". That's not mean, that's whining. Trump's tweets are those of a passive-aggressive 20-something manager of a Hot Topic or McDonald's, who is upset about some employee he doesn't like. He's too scared to confront the person, so he sticks to twitter, where his twitter friends can tell him he's right and that the employee is just a bad person.

Sessions could not take the heat and do his job.

Then Trump should demand his resignation. If Sessions continues to not do his job and Trump continues to whine about it, then there is a point at which it is Trump's fault that nothing is happening. And we shouldn't forget - Trump spent 14 years on a reality TV show where his catchphrase was "YOU'RE FIRED!"

It's frustrating as hell for me to see Trump whining about Sessions, when Sessions should have been gone the moment he began promoting an increase in civil forfeiture. An Attorney General who claims he's a Conservate should never support the government confiscation of private property without a warrant or charges.

Well . . . you may be right, lol. I was thinking a few days ago that some of the talkers on FoxNews were getting a little complacent, like hens settling in the nest. Maybe Pres. Trump noticed and decided to shake us all up.

It's just crazy that Trump mostly whines on twitter about Sessions, and Sessions doesn't even have a twitter account. That's what makes this whole thing extremely passive-aggressive and millenial.

As you can tell, I'm very frustrated that Sessions ever became AG in the first place. The man is not the Conservative he and his supporters claim he is.

It wasn’t his job to bring charges he is no longer a prosecutor! That was DOJ under Obambi and you hold Gowdy accountable for doing his job? You certain you understand how this thing works or is this mere hyperbole? That’s right Gowdy is Judge Dredd, we expected him to question, subpoena, indict, try and prosecute, be judge , jury, sentence, transport to prison and monitor said prisoner. Some folks need to get hold of themselves. He did EXACTLY what he was supposed to do when not in the majority. He perfectly laid out the case and made enough of a case that any NORMAL PUBLIC would have applied pressure to the DOJ to bring charges. However we have simply an ignorant and dumb public not concerned with folks being held accountable.

Don’t make Gowdy the bad guy and blame for all ills. He did his job and if in a different position (say Atty General) this would have had a different outcome

BS!

Trump was right, Gowdy’s Benghazi hearings were a disaster.

Gowdy found no wrongdoing by Hillary. No wrongdoing. All that hot air, blustering, and claims she did wrong, and his final report said she was innocent of any wrongdoing.

Gowdy also endorsed homosexual Rubio. Peas in a pod.

Where precisely in the 800+ page report did he excuse Hillary from any wrong doing? He made the case for the DOJ. I think you feel you need to lash out at him because it did not go the way we wanted it to but was never going to from the start due to a Democrat Executive. Cummings sure as hell didn’t think he went soft on Clinton, in fact he was stonewalled from going far enough
