See my comments below on YouTube Video.
I originally supported Ted Cruz back in Feb. 2016, but learned that Jeff Sessions was a supporter of Donald Trump and so I gave Trump a look and I liked what I heard and saw, Cruz make a lot of mistakes and came to the conclusion that Cruz was not electable because people did not like him. So in March 2016 I decided to support President Trump and haven't regretted it.
Someone on Twitter posted a 3 minute slice of this video at the 26 minute mark. I listened to it. I've never listened to it before so I decided to listen to Sessions full 30 minute video. I liked what I have heard and now have a better understanding (in my mind) of how Trump and Sessions are handling the Mueller investigations, Hillary, Obama and company criminality, etc.
In the video Sessions theme is as follows:
He is committed to restore the rule of law and the moral order of our judicial system. He wants the judicial system to stop being used to advance political agendas and thus weaponized. And, he wants to re-establish respect for the DOJ.
I say the above to give my opinion of Sessions reclusion from Russian Collusion investigation and just over all Rosenstein acting more like the Attorney General than Sessions at times.
1. I think Trump and Session purposely put Rosenstein in the position he's in because he was deep into everything Obama, Hillary, et al were involved in over the eight years Obama was President. I think they are letting Rosenstein sink or swim and get yourself out of this if you can. This to me takes great guts by our President. I think Trump is clean, not a perfect man, but clean as far as anything that Rosenstein/Mueller can bring to bear criminally speaking. Trump knows it and Sessions knows it.
2. This is my hope, I don't have any proof. Sessions is working in the background getting good evidence to stand up in court to prosecute wrong doers of Obama and Hillary years. If he isn't then this speech he made at The Federalist Society in 2017 is not worth anything.
I know how some feel on this Forum about Sessions. Before you slam me, please listen to the full 30 minute speech and then tell me what you think.
He is committed to restore the rule of law and the moral order of our judicial system.
Well start firing all the Obama/Hillary Minions ,NOW
I am sorry I can not listen to ANYTHING that comes out of that little cretin’s mouth!! He is a TRAITOR not only to this President, but a traitor to all of us law abiding Americans!!!
The only thing I want to hear from Sessions is his resignation announcement.
Traitor Sessions
If Sessions is prosecuting Clinton gang, he lied to Congress and is liable for a five year prison sentence. If the President put him up to it, that’s an impeachable offense.
Great post! I think you are right... I also think Trump being critical of him publicly is pure show to keep his opposition on Sessions team.
Did the audience sit outside his tree while he baked his cookies?
Rule of law. What a joke this bum is.
Why doesn’t he “address” the corruption at DOJ and the FBI?
Sessions by his recusal is relegated to just giving speeches.
Good riddance to Sessions.
I don't understand. Please explain.
Exactly! “I need more time with the family” works well!
I’m very conflicted on Sessions. I go back and forth on him, his recusal, and inaction. I always admired him but over the past almost two years that admiration has been frayed to a few pathetic threads of hope that stubbornly hold out hope that something is actually being done.
My faith in the justice system has been severely shaken. Justice delayed is justice denied
Trump wants Sessions GONE, but he doesn’t want to have to fire him. Why? There would be an off message distraction of phony outrage from the RINO contingent of the GOP. There may also be delayed appointments of some judgeships (by Mitch) just to get even. The question remains, WHO has promised what to Jeff Sessions if he does not quit that office?
There has to be some enormous incentive to stay where you clearly are not wanted.
Go to Hell, Jeff.
Lying to Congress is a felony. Sessions testified that he recused himself from anything to do with Hillary, the campaign and Russia. If he conspired with Trump to lie to Congress, Trump’s in trouble.
So, in essence, you're saying that Rosenstein is a conspirator in a criminal enterprise and that Trump and Sessions are giving Rosenstein a chance to extricate himself from having to face charges for his crimes.
Is this what you're saying?
He is committed to restore the rule of law and the moral order of our judicial system.
Obviously someone wrote that for him and he didn’t understand a word of it.
As Debbie Wasserman-Schultz' right hand man Imran Awan walks out of Federal Court with a "slap on the wrist" plea deal.
Way to go Jeff!
You are fooling yourself. Sessions promised to address illegal voting in this country - did nothing. Sessions recused from this Mueller/Rosenstein mess; a real man who loved this country would resign if they really thought they should not be involved.
Thus the Constitution gets trampled by the dem party, illegals and America haters every day and I am furious. Sessions will go down as the worst AG in the history of this country.
