National Review via the White Mountain Independent ^ | 3/13/2018 | Rich Lowry

Posted on 03/13/2018 6:11:15 PM PDT by advance_copy

Attorney General Jeff Sessions has been attacked and belittled by President Donald Trump more than Vladimir Putin has.

[SNIP]

Sessions’ recusal in the Russian investigation set in motion events leading to the appointment of Robert Mueller, and Trump will probably never forgive him.

Sessions is working a brilliant 5 dimensional chess game of prosecution.
With his move clock set on statute of limitations as his first move.

“Sessions is going to have to produce before Nov., 2018.”

If we don’t get some JUSTICE before then, it’s not going to be pretty for the GOP aka the party of bush.

The sealed indictments mantra derives from Q. Nothing that’s actually happened lends credibility to Q, so it all hangs on assumptions about what’s happened. Until she started globe trotting, the accepted Q wisdom was that Hillary had been secretly arrested and fitted with an ankle monitor. Some Q-believers are still convinced that’s what happened to Podesta.

Without blind faith in the sealed indictments, Q’s repeated admonition to TRUST SESSIONS would look like a farce. So the myth of Stealth Sessions’ sealed indictments lives on.

“Excellent AG”

The most corrupt, incompetent DOJ in history but we have an excellent AG? Ridiculous. Sessions must have more on you than the swamp has on him.

The Japanese call this stuff "Kabuki." I Sessions were truly ineffectual he would be long gone. He is doing what Trump wants him to do. To argue that Sessions is incompetent is to argue that Trump is incompetent and doesn't know what is going on in Washington. If that were true he would have been impeached or the regular deliberations toward his impeachment would have started in the House proposed and promoted by our friends in DC the Republican Party six months ago.

Thanks, that’s not surprising.

Here’s the reality. Trump had no problem whatsoever firing Rex Tillerson. Trump has no problem firing those that aren’t doing his bidding or are no longer useful to him. Trump hasn’t fired Jeff Sessions. Logically, then, one could easily conclude that Jeff Sessions is doing Trump’s bidding and/or Trump still deems him useful.

I am sure that Little Jeffey appreciates your sticking up for him against those mean old critics. Maybe you should carry his books to school too.

"Sessions’ recusal in the Russian investigation set in motion events leading to the appointment of Robert Mueller, and Trump will probably never forgive him..."

..... Well..... Despite all of his foibles ..... Like it or not .... Unlike most of the group ... Sessions is still a member of the Trump Team ..... So he must still be useful to the President for some kind of functional reason(s).

“Sessions sits in his office, knowing that crimes were committed and nothing is being done about them...”

Not quite accurate; Sessions is praising the ones who committed the crimes, dining out, etc.

Clue us in. What has he done that is excellent? Which of the Clinton crime machine has he targeted?

“As opposed to spewing the usual toxic venom at a man who is doing his job diligently behind the scenes?”

If he is diligently doing his job behind the scenes, how do you know that to be the case? I think you are just hoping that is true like the rest of us. I would just like some indication of it.

It remains to be seen whether Mueller will open an obstruction investigation into Trump’s firing of Tillerson. Mueller is already investigating Trump for firing Comey and for ***thinking*** about firing Mueller.
