“Attorney General Jeff Sessions needs to ask: What did President Obama know, and when did he know it?”

Someone needs to ask AG Sessions if he’s really up to the job of being AG?

From the article: “More broadly, once it has enacted tax reform, Obamacare repeal and other top priorities, Congress should set investigations in motion. “

Really? The author believes the GOP Congress will repeal O’care and enact tax reform and maybe even fund the wall. He also believes the same GOP Congress that investigated Benghazi five or six times is capable of investigating corruption by Obama. What planet is he living on?

The GOP Congress is going to do nothing, just like the House has done for the 6 years the GOP has enjoyed a majority and the Senate has done for the 2 years it has enjoyed a majority. There isn’t any legislation (tax reform, funding the wall, ending O’Care) Congress couldn’t have passed immediately after they were sworn in in early January. The fact nothing of substance has been passed in 5 months should be a clue they intend to do nothing before running for reelection in 2018.

Remember the absence of work in November 2018 when you are told we must elect a Republican Congress to enact a conservative agenda.

Strategy and Tactics my friends...

Not all of the cards are on the table and you all whine like petulant children because he is taking his time,. Have you not read and fathomed the depth and breadth of the conspiracy that has taken decades to build and needs to brought down? Just ;like in a drug dealing organization you have a lot to do finding the connections leading upwards with evidence and testimony to convict.

With Comey’s files and all his stuff in hand the scope and scale of this swamp is coming into view, and I expect when the bombs drop there will be people jumping put of windows and shooting themselves versus facing punishment for treason and treachery they have been involved in.

healthcare racket, we have to take the kids to soccer practice and the car needs brakes

exactly doing the business of the American People taking care of kids, house, work.

I dunno is it possible Sessions has something up his sleeve that we are not privy to?

More than not Trump is showing his integrity and proving to be right.

I think the administration needs to let Muellers’ special-counsel investigation proceed. My opinion is that the Russian thing will fade for lack of evidence and the investigation will evolve into an investigation of shady dealings by Obama/Clinton.

I don’t want the Trump administration to do a frontal attack on Obama/Clinton. He needs to attract democrats, not make them madder.

I may have missed it, but . . . has Trump appointed an FBI Director yet to replace Comey?

No. Nor has Trump appointed an Interim Director to keep an eye on Democrat hack McCabe, who remains in charge of the FBI.

What do you think that’s all about?

McCabe is so corrupt and compromised.

“Not all of the cards are on the table and you all whine like petulant children because he is taking his time.”

I don’t mind Sessions taking his time, I just want to see some movement in the driver’s seat. I’d prefer a little less invisibility and more “ I keep people awake at night” like General Mattis. This is a serious matter that will influence the 2018 elections, and I would, therefore, like some assurances that Sessions isn’t a never-Trumper bent on helping to sink the president. He is, after all a former Senator and you know what a steaming pile the Senate is today.

The latest candidates, John Pistole, an FBI veteran and former Transportation Security Administration director, and Christopher Wray, the former head of the Justice Department’s criminal division, talked to Trump just yesterday.

I think senior FBI staff get to veto the choice, and many candidates just don’t really want the job.

Bill Still report on James Comey

This helped make some sense of the delay and what’s going on in regards to the FBI.
