Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III first leaped onto the national stage when he became the first US Senator to endorse Donald Trump for president. Back then, Trump did not even have the Republican nomination wrapped up and was still considered a long shot by most. Jeff Sessions took a huge risk that eventually catapulted him to one of the most powerful positions in the nation. Unfortunately, his short time as Attorney General has been a disaster to say the least.
Sessions quickly revealed to the public that his true character is somewhere between a 1930’s dictator and a movie villain. His world view is antithetical to liberty and Western values. To put it bluntly, he hates freedom.
His first offense – an immediately unforgivable one – was coming out as a staunch opponent of legal marijuana. Ever since marijuana was banned in 1937 for dark political and crony-capitalistic reasons, states and individuals have undergone a grueling struggle to get their freedom back. Now, almost 60% of the US population lives in a state that has legal marijuana.

I guess “Tesseract” writes for a blog because no actual publication will hire anyone with a fake name.
Jeff Sessions is not an enemy of freedom.
He made a mistake of letting himself get boxed in by Al Franken.
Yeah whatever.....
but Sessions, whether purposefully or by stupidity just up and screwed the POTUS and needs to go. His weak knees showed from the onset.
Why, just because he scared Doctors away from giving people pain pills, or allowing cops to Smash& Grab?
BS. He first leaped onto the national stage in 2006 and 2007 when he, more than anyone else in Congress, led the fight against his own president's multi-year push for amnesty for all illegal aliens, well before many others took a position on the issue.
“Jeff Sessions is not an enemy of freedom.

So you favor Raving Idiot over Scared little Church Mouse?
“So you favor Raving Idiot over Scared little Church Mouse?”
Those are our choices?
No, but the rhetoric is getting ridiculous.
One of the main reasons that McCain, Graham, Flake, Rubio, Murkowsky, Alexander, Hoeven, Hatch, Heller, Corker and the rest of the Cheap Labor Express Republicans have not given the country away already is Jeff Sessions.
I was wondering how he made the jump from bumbling and impotent to some sort of evil super villain. Then I saw the third paragraph,,,,, sigh.
Pretty much. Session’s confirmation hearing gives us all we need to know about the nature of the reactionary insanity that cannot bear anyone with that accent and looks holding any national position.
Treat Sessions badly when he is standing on principle and you can kiss the evangelicals goodbye. Unless Trump could find a similarly large group to add to his coalition he would be toast.
That's not a resume enhancer.

The day Trump is impeached remind me of old Jeffery the Great.
One track minds prevail among potheads.
What's this bull!?! I'm against the lost "War on Drugs", but it isn't as if Jeff Sessions is the first to be against marijuana. This attack is insane!
Sessions is not a bad guy. But he is an old-school social conservative who is eager to use the tools of government and law enforcement in to right wrongs - when these tools have already been badly warped and corrupted into weapons against liberty. He is not a man who can step back and notice that the tools are broken - and will have to be replaced before he will be able to use them in legitimate law enforcement operations.
No and he has made other mistakes, civil forfeiture should not be expanded and should never be allowed without conviction.
He was a great Senator. We’re finding out that he might not be a good AG, but he’s not the enemy.
Just checked Alexa and it appears that this blog has a footprint in Canada, Norway, France, and South Korea. Nothing against those countries, but it seems pretty odd that an English speaking blog would hold zero appeal in the UK.
I had not even considered that aspect of the situation. I was born in Ala-damn-bama, although my accent is not dripping with syrup as his is. I have many relatives that do sound like that, so I don't think much about it. You point out the "we don't want no damn ignorant hillbilly redneck Southerner in the Justice Department.
Agree on both counts.
